Ace: No mention of sex because sex is for sheeple
Sex probably isn't even FOSS
I wonder why people want 'privacy' when having sex, and how it's always 'censored' on TV
Absolutely Proprietary!
Probably filled with keyloggers too
don't even start on the possibility of getting viruses
Don't be silly, umask 133 your willy!

Be me.
Go to school
Everyone else in my class counting on fingers
Pull out Abacus
Crowd immediately forms
"Hey guys! He's doing multi-variable calculus over here!!!"
Smile smugly. Don't these kids know the abacus has been around for 3000 years?
Teacher tells me to stop cheating. Accuses me of black magic
Just laugh. Calculate pi to 100 places. People running out of the room screaming and crying.
Sent to principle's office. Principle amazed by my technological expertise. Nominates me for Head Boy.
Ministry of Magic sends down delegation to investigate my new kind of wizardry
Correctly estimate the future national gross domestic product for the next two quarters
Voldemort appears and tries to steal my device
Perfectly calculate the circumference of his head. Voldemort banished to the shadow realm for 10,000 years.
Everyone cheers
Open the door, get on the floor. Everybody walk the dinosaur
True story
I chuckled. Thank you.
This more or less happened to my friend circa ~2000s. They were technically amazing for our age. When the school "database" was deleted they and a friend were suspended for an entire month, almost expelled.
Turns out they had warned their teacher that the files were in a public shared folder and anyone could just literally delete them. No backups, these were grades, assignments, etc for dozens of teachers over many years. They were severely punished for trying to disclose a vulnerability essentially and blamed for the whole thing.
Never report vulnerabilities yourself to an organization, always use a neutral, trusted third party to report it.
Linux is a gateway drug. Habitual use can lead to harder OSes, which are also Linux.
Linux is just a gateway drug to TempleOS
And eventually, after that, Nyarch
There is a small filler episode of BSDs between templeos and nyarch.
Oh please Christ tell me that kids these days aren't that dumb when it comes to computers.
I'm sorry to inform you that when I was in high school I had classmates ask me if I was hacking when opening up the command line. We don't have snitches though and the people here have the ability to listen to explanations.
Computer literacy is definitely down in gen z and alpha.
IMO around 2006 is when you see the decline. It's the delineation between kids who started with computers, and kids that started with phones or tablets.
This is why my kids get to use the PC in the living room. Wireless keyboard and mouse, gcompris from boot until they are a bit older.
Though I am thinking of moving it all onto the htpc so its JF, emulators, gcompris, etc, but I haven't decided how I want to do that yet. I was thinking of doing NFC for login, but my youngest is creative and would figure out he could grab mom's phone to get game access.
TBD. And a huge digression.
Kids? I regularly interact with PhD students that don't know how to open a fucking ZIP archive. I've had one that thought that "SSD" was a kind of RAM, and insisted on installing Windows on a hard drive. I've had one that couldn't grasp the idea of 2FA. I've had one that only had a single copy of his dissertation and lost all of it when Bitlocker ate the disk.
Organic intelligence is going extinct, I swear.
I had a computer class that was fairly self guided, do projects and tell the facilitator how it's good for community or whatever. All I would do when she walked by is go to hackertyper and tell her I was coding.
So yes.
Oh, they def are. Most people under ~20 only use touch screen devices. In school, they have apps for building documents and power points, so they can just do those in their phone or a tablet.
I'm watching it in my high school aged niece: she barely knows how to type on a real keyboard, let alone how to access a command line, and even less so what can be accomplished through it.
Developers are that dumb when it comes to computers. Actual fucking developers.
They are way worse than 20 years ago. High school kids now grew up with Roblox on the iPad.
Yes. They are.
Everything is magic to them the way it was to the boomers. Open the box, plug it in, it works, hope nothing unusual happens along the way.
Of course there are plenty who know more, but I’ve got kids and helped them build their own PCs. They still know relatively little, but their friends don’t even understand that cellphones are computers and reject the idea altogether.
This happened to a friend of mine in the 90s. He was checking his email with pine. The lady who ran the school computer lab called the terminal "the black program with the blinking thing."
Fake: Anon used https://hackertyper.net/
Gay: Anon impressed dudes at school 😏
Similar though far less extreme thing happened to me in highschool ~99
Some kid decided to rename the other kids home directory folders because they were their student IDs, not an easily identifiable name.
Sure enough, when said students went to log back in, their data was gone.
They took away MY access because they wanted me to come to the staff room to get it restored so that I can fix it for them.
Why we had access to all students home directories and data is beyond me FFS. But yeah.
I did plenty of shit I shouldn't have done, for sure, but that wasn't me, and it was the one time I got my access revoked.
Anyway, it was a good lesson to install a keylogger on a few machines which logged to the local c: and then I got some other accounts for free internet and print credit so there was no more logging me out after that.
I doubt the parents called the police on OP for hacking. Parents just get angry or ground their kids for "hacking".
"Breaking the new computer", to paraphrase my parents.
my dad said Linux broke the computer when I installed Ubuntu as a last ditch attempt to get it to work with failing ram 😭😭
it was blue screening like every 20 minutes before
Wait, you're saying this is fake?
Get new parents
Is that a flatpak?
There’s a program at my job that has a black background and a lot of the commands are written in lines similar to cmd.
It’s a lot more streamlined now but I use to have to do a lot in there and people would often gather behind me to see what I was doing. I guess it looked like I was hacking because I would type for about a bit and hit enter then start typing again. Literal csi hacking type shit
I mean yeah, half of CSI hacking is
Tree
I'm in!
Sudo dnf update
Omg same experience. Bruh I just wanted to watch some youtube on my break but I had to update firefox or smtn and my coworkers thought I was hacking the wifi lolol
Always keep a GUI tool for the job in case of normies.
I just don't go outside so I can use the terminal all I want
Can't decide. Is this green text fake and gay or real because it sounds like it could happen to me?
While I doubt it went as far as the parents calling the police, way back when I was in high school, my friend got banned from the computers for "hacking" because he used the command prompt to control the computer instead of just the GUI.
This shit is how people turn into supervillains.
Starts modded Minecraft modpack. full screen starting logs. H4ck3rm4n
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
