Okay, basically, I put the search terms computer hacker into
google and found this old article. It made me laugh way to many
times.  The only thing is I don't know what is worse, the fact
that emacs is the worst bad habbit (even beyond making
unbreakable codes for terrorists) or that even his toaster (or
microwave) runs on computers, probably either linux or netBSD.
anyways, anyone think this was written by the same guy that did
"Is your son a computer hacker?"  catkin 07-16-2009 08:32 AM
This is great:  all of the "functionality" that has been added
to {snip] gcc, etc. are hacker's tools. That means that they are
like lock picks or zip guns. They have no inherent functionality
that is not ultimately malevolent  jlinkels 07-17-2009 10:47 PM
I can't believe this was a serious article. Or maybe it was.
