I just have to include the iconic SHODAN quote:
"Look at you, hacker. A pathetic creature of meat and bone, panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine?"
I wonder if the creators of the search engine are aware that a.) SHODAN wasn't the hacker. b.) SHODAN tried repeatedly to kill the hacker. And c.) the situation didn't turn out particularly well for SHODAN.
- achillean 17y agoYes on all counts, but SHODAN is remembered as the iconic character of the hacker-themed game. PS: And 'shodan' also means 'to search for something' in Hindi.
- sliverstorm 17y agoSimilar to a certain eternally cheerful OS, or should I say, GLaDOS... Half the time I can't even remember the protagonist's name.
- TheTarquin 17y agoOh cool! I didn't know that. Learn something new every day. Hmm, . . . , that's very interesting. I wonder if the etymology of SHODAN is from the Hindi shodan? Maybe it's just a coincidence?
