Jurassic Systems
- willis936 3y agoIt's a unix system. I know this.
- hiccup 3y agoClever girl
- josiahpeters 3y agoThey’re problem solving smart.

- HanClinto 3y agoThis is delightful. Anyone found a way to beat this? I particularly enjoyed the "live docks" clip saved on the Mac desktop.

- tempodox 3y agoI made it beep!
- divbzero 3y agoI really thought sudo would do the trick.
- batspit 3y agoYup. I politely used the magic word and was rewarded with an ASCII image. I assume that's the hidden feature.
- airstrike 3y agoIndeed, but it's almost more fun to get it wrong 3 times ;-)
- staplung 3y agoI think the hidden feature is summoning the second desktop where Nedry is taunting you. There is a fun level of detail in the keychecks command: if memory serves it shows exactly the output that's given in the book.

- cm2187 3y agoMovie directors were deliciously non IT savvy at the time, I remember as a teenager growling every time an actor switched off the monitor when he meant to switch off the computer. But I guess taxi drivers still growl today at all those characters leaving the cab without paying in movies!
- jessriedel 3y agoDo any taxis allow you to swipe your credit card and select a tip during the middle of the ride, rather than waiting until the end? You could just set up the whole transaction and then when the taxi stopped the fare+tip+tax would display and you could just hit "approve". Seems like such a waste for people to twiddle their thumbs during the ride and then spend 60 seconds checking out while the cab is blocking a lane. (Not to mention that Uber/Lyfts don't have this downside, which puts taxis at a disadvantage.)
- airstrike 3y ago> Do any taxis allow you to swipe your credit card and select a tip during the middle of the ride, rather than waiting until the end? In NYC you can use some apps (e.g. Arro or Curb, which are apparently sort of the same thing) to connect to your current ride so that it pays when it is over
- jessriedel 3y agoThanks!
- scrapcode 3y agoman access access main please
- willis936 3y agoI'm not sure if there are special system names. Both access and system commands seem to respond the same way to nearly any string given as the system name.

- wmf 3y agoRe-watching Jurassic Park after working in the corporate world was eye-opening. The entire park is controlled by a centralized computer system maintained by one extremely disgruntled guy and Hammond just tells him to suck it up. Worst management ever.

- sdenton4 3y agoAnd a notorious mail thief, at that...
- tempodox 3y agoMad scientists are infamous for their bad management skills.
- charles_f 3y agoHe's not a scientist, he's a businessman who spared no expense (except, apparently, on his main systems staff salary)
- swagasaurus-rex 3y agoHammond's justification is that he is not responsible for Dennis Nedry's gambling debts
- wannacboatmovie 3y agoIf you listen to the dialogue closely, Nedry was a contract employee who apparently set his own lowball price ("for what I bid on this job").
- willis936 3y agoI feel that an egotistical businessman not seeing the obvious single point failure of an essential disgruntled contract employee is one of the most believable parts of the movie.
- echelon 3y agoI would really love to have wall art that resembled the LED patterns from the supercomputers in the Jurassic Park film, specifically the CM-5 [1, 2] [1] https://www.starringthecomputer.com/appearance.html?f=11&c=15 https://www.starringthecomputer.com/appearance.html?f=11&c=1...
