You think these people read as kids?

People who know how to read don't end up in Qanon

but other people read them too and didn't go absolutely nuts

Him playing around makes sense the first time he's translating the Spanish in the attic. It makes less sense when he keeps doing it after they're running for their lives from the Fratelli's, dodging booby traps and are facing yet another trap that is a full pipe organ made of human bones. And he's clearly scared when he translates it. But, maybe he just has weird defense mechanisms, I don't know.

Ish.

There's ye as in "hear ye, hear ye". That's a y. It's an inflected form of you, much as they had both thee and thou.

Then there's writing þe as ye.

Goteem? You mean Gotham.

“It was left by a Mr E… Mystery!

Yea, but im pretty sure this is intentionally bad, instead of bad writing

"but what about--?"
"There can be no question!!"

Here you go!

Same with Windows 95 and Windows 98. Those operating systems were not really designed with a proper concept of 'user accounts'

The password box wasn't supposed to prevent system access, it was to capture user credentials for networking, like remote fileshare access.

Pressing escape is just choosing to continue anonymously.

You didn't even need to do that. You could hold down the shift key to bypass some passwords, and just click cancel on others.

Early Windows had awful security.

Well. Cyber security professionals wish it were that way. Instead it's usually 1234 or their kid's birthday or some shit. Having a connection in your mind between houses and horses and then using that to remember something like Green4Stallion8 would actually be more secure than most people's passwords. It's even more better if you can remember a nonsense word that phonetically matches and change up the capital like, kreeN4stauLion8.

Of course most people don't need to worry about social hacking. Black hats aren't going through random social media profiles when they have millions of password and email combinations they ripped from a few websites. So unless you're the CEO of LifeLock or dealing with abusive family the above password would totally work even if everyone around you knew you loved Horse Cottages.

Just don't forget to change it in 30 days...

Even if the password was "stallion" they probably would have made it Stallion1, Stallion!, $tallion, etc. The password always ends up being a single word, all lowercase, no numbers, no special characters.

NO, NO, we are not violating the dead.

"G? As in Good God please don't!"
