Hell. How many nerds today even know what "finger" does and when is the last time you ran it and actually got back useful information?5chn3ll wrote: ↑Mon Oct 01, 2018 11:10 am For non-nerds:
Veronica: (Very Easy Rodent-Oriented Net-wide Index to Computerized Archives)
Archie: a front-end for downloading files via FTP. Archie is a play on words for "archive," not another Bazooka Joe reference. Archie was an early crawler that would index publicly available FTP sites. Archie was great for downloading shit from servers people forgot to secure.

There's no auction price estimate. I wonder if it will sell below my self-imposed $20k limit?
Repo'd? Submarined/Hurricaned? Drug busted? A fiberglass body of a 1974 Volkswagen Rabbit? Chinese knock-off? Won't pass smog testing in CA.? Somebody used the ashtray?
What is that saying about insanity and doing same thing? Brand new mitsubishi mirage is below your self imposed limit, you should buy it. The money you save on that car, if invested in diversified income funds should be enough to buy you a nice used 991 in 10 years.FRUNKenstein wrote: ↑Mon Oct 01, 2018 12:09 pm Fed up with the A8L.
