I gave a talk at thotcon (all ansi art themed) and setup a BBS to share my files (i was 'in character' the whole time pretending it was still the 90s, cause I talk about mainframe hacking). The only way to get my files and tools from the talk was to use the BBS. Lot's of people did.

I spent waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more loving time just getting synchronet and ANSI art packs to play nice then I should've. Javascript + ANSI codes? that feels like a winner to me. I actually spent less time on my talk, my tools, demo's etc, than I did on that stupid BBS.

But at least I was able to get it to run on a debian VPS with LOTS of hassle.

There was an interesting talk about using VoIP to scan/profile ancient x.25 networks. Don't see why it wouldn't work.

finnish is complete gibberish to me, from the little ive heard of danish they talk like they've got mouths full of marbles but what i can understand seems pretty similar. i heard that norwegian was basically a compromise between swedish and danish and that seems to be holding up

Good! The only hard part is pronouncing this poo poo and trying to understand what the other people are saying because every city talks differently and then you have Nynorsk shits and far northerners sound like Kermit the frog and it is a bit messy.

I highly recommend also watching a norsk TV show called Dag, it's on YouTube and most of it is subtitled and it's also hilarious (for a norwegian TV show, Norwegian by our is kind of hosed up)

Yeah you'll be able to read Swedish and Danish but Swedish is super weird and borderline tonal and Danish sounds like a German speaking norwegian

Lol there is an entire Wikipedia page on Finnish swearing, so far this is my favourite:

quote:

kyrpä
Literally "cock" in the sense of "penis"; often considered highly offensive. The word nearly always refers to an actual penis and may be used, for example, to express frustration: Voi kyrpä! "Oh gently caress!". The widespread verb vituttaa "to feel angry and depressed" originates from its meaning "to want vagina". Therefore, classically, women should not use vituttaa, but kyrpiä, e.g. kyrpii "this makes me feel bad". One form of using the word is "kyrpä otsassa" which means that someone is really pissed off. The literal meaning is "to have a dick on the forehead

im sure that it did, but im not sure that having DCD drop is properly emulated in the telnet sockets to the bbs or if the software even knows how to translate it.
