    Absolutely …!

    That was back when I bought a dozen and a half of them.

    I kept a dozen for personal use …

    As for the remaining six … I kept one to start working on it … dump the code to see what I could do to hack it.

    My work would ultimately end up to be yet another failed attempt to set basis for the creation of a free MATA MAID …

    By the same time, I sent two of them to the Charles University in Prague in the Czech Republic, where a bunch of students and post grad academics were working on what later would become known as “The One True Browser”, so they could dump the code and play around with it . They told me I was “sick” and that I should “look for professional help”. I should’ve know better than send it to them … they were academics after all …

    Also sent one to a “Cream of the Crop, Lisp obsessed Elite Hacker Master Mind” in NZ to the same effect and pourpose. And the remaining 2 to two hackers whose identity would remain veiled even to me … all I know was that one of them was from a place called Merveilles Town … the other one was an already renown “console cowboy” …











  • If I may: " … However, surrealist art cannot ever be produced with any intent and cannot therefore aim to create a specific aesthetic." “The resulting aesthetic of surrealistic output is always a by-product. Indeed there is a recognizable style to the last century’s surrealistic works, but it was a result of that age. True surrealism of today will not produce similarly looking visual art, because today’s minds are influenced much differently from the minds of the old surrealists.” ( from: https://analognowhere.com/unix_surrealism/#unix_surrealism … look for: “a word on aesthetics”).

    Hope that helps, and please disregard if my comment is out of place.
