  • Brainfuck is the sixth circle
  • Mom, put down the phone, I'm using the modem!

  • I wasted my time making this shader!
  • ah man.. that's a part of the internet I really miss. For those that don't know, the .plan file was a file you put in your home folder, and anyone on the internet could run finger [email protected] (or your own user@server obviously) which would output your status and your .plan and .project files. Which is why people have a copy of John Carmack's .plan file.
