This feels like it would have been edgy and cool 30 years ago.
- CuriousCosmic 3y agoFYI: Cult of the Dead Cow is a hacker group that has been around since the 80s. Hell a number of members actually have testified in congress before (i.e. the CdC members that were also part of L0pht).
- parpfish 3y agoone of them went beyond testifying in congress and just became a politician [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beto_O%27Rourke https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beto_O%27Rourke
- CuriousCosmic 3y agoOh damn I didn't even connect that O'Rourke was Psychedelic Warlord.
- Terr_ 3y agoHoly crap, that is a surprising connection between two names I individually knew in a social graph.
- Terr_ 3y ago> L0pht Oh man, that reminds me of NTLM passwords: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L0phtCrack https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L0phtCrack
- jrochkind1 3y agoI don't know if you're talking about the design or content. But on design... So Cult of the Dead Cow has literally been around for 40 years. And this is what their "pages" looked like before the web, when ascii on TTY was all you had. Ironically, however, the first actual web page of theirs IA has, in 1998, does _not_ look like this, they didn't actually think at that point it would be edgy and cool to make the brand new web look like an ASCII tty. https://web.archive.org/web/19980209125729/http://cultdeadcow.com:80/ https://web.archive.org/web/19980209125729/http://cultdeadco... It actually wasn't until 2019 they decided it would be maybe edgy and cool to make their webpage look like an ascii tty from 1990. https://web.archive.org/web/20190530041326/https://cultdeadcow.com/ https://web.archive.org/web/20190530041326/https://cultdeadc...
