- jauntywundrkind 9mo agoUnqualified broadscale hate making no assertions anyone can look at and check? This post is again such wicked nasty Dark Side energy, fueled by such empty vacuous nothing. It was an incredible era that brought amazing aliveness to the internet. Most of it was pretty simple & direct, would be more intelligible to folks today than today would be intelligible & legible to folks from them. This behavior is bad & deserves censure. The hacker spirit is free to be critical, but in ways that expand comprehension & understanding. To classify a whole era as a "horrible hack" is injurous to the hacker spirit.
