Everybody who points out for example @IanDrake, @aaron695 that this might have to do with drug addiction or even metal illness is immediately downvoted and shouted down into oblivion. I'm sorry, these are valid points of view - if you

Well, OK, but that isn't fair to say "C" or strcpy(). That's the implementation - so is it surprising that the common underlying implementation of "C" can be coerced into indeterminate or even Turing complete b

That's not true, even if you claim that they weren't built any better "back then" (which is a point I would still argue with). The reason is that there is literally not a single 2000+ fridge that will be going when it&#x
