- bmelton 16y agoFor the non-Railers among us, can somebody please expound upon what I'm looking at? Did somebody submit a typo-gem? Is it in some way malicious? I don't get it.
- joshbuddy 16y agoI just installed it, it's not malicious, just hilarious.
- rbxbx 16y agofor the paranoid, the source is on github and seems a-o-k http://github.com/okay/Rials http://github.com/okay/Rials <--
- jjcm 16y agoTypically when you install rails for the first time, you'll install it via the gem package manager. To do this, you'll type: gem install rails Which creates a binary file "rails" that does all the railsey magic. This assumes that a certain percentage of those will accidentally type: gem install rials Which also creates a binary file, which is also called "rails". The difference after browsing the github repo (http://github.com/okay/Rials/blob/master/lib/rials.rb http://github.com/okay/Rials/blob/master/lib/rials.rb), is that this version of "rails" runs a lovely program which rickrolls the user. Edit: Got it running on my linux box after cloning the repo. Here's a screenshot if it in it's full glory: http://jjcm.org:8081/rials.png http://jjcm.org:8081/rials.png Yes, it does actually play the video in ascii goodness from within your terminal.

- mrinterweb 16y agoI cheated and looked at the source code before installing it so I didn't get the full effect, but it is still very funny anyway. I think you need to be running a mac to get the full effect.
- jjcm 16y agoWorks on linux as well, http://jjcm.org:8081/rials.png http://jjcm.org:8081/rials.png
- kapitalx 16y agohaha, quite funny. I looked at source code aswell before running it.
