Is there any reason you're pointing out his alleged hypocrisy and not the hypocrisy of the Pope regarding child molestation? Are molested children just non-humans or something?
"Actually, I don't have a system because the time it takes me to pick a valid pair of socks is..." is as autistic an answer as "Left-to-right by increasing wavelength color, dark colors in the back" or "All socks are paired up and perpendicular for easy overview".
This makes me suspect that what you are actually defending is christianity and you take affront...
I am not going on this creative adventure with you, sorry.
For anyone else reading: The OS was originally called "LosethOS" as in "lose the OS" and was a personal project in exploring how powerful a personal computer really is if we take away modern abstraction layers. The OS had some cool concepts of a raw C shell integrated directly with programs, and inline "SVG-like" code comments, and more.
It was not something you could deploy for daily use or production environments, but it was a power flex on what is actually possible, and made a lot of us in tech reconsider whether some of the abstraction layers we take as "automatic" actually help us more than they slow us down and make our power bills go up.
The core ideas are still found in things like CollapseOS today. Not sure if the inspiration is direct or indirect, but it is still cool.
Him renaming it TempleOS came later, when he was already deep in struggles. It derailed the core interesting parts as far as I was concerned, but it helped him find meaning, which I don't hold against him.
I've actually seen people use the word "powerlifter" for this purpose. Id est using it to describe someone's physical build even if they are not a full-on powerlifter.
It's an amazing piece of technology made as a hobby project by the absurdly talented Terry Davis. He gradually lost his world, house and evetually his life to debilitating mental illness, so it makes me sad to see posts like this using "mentally unstable lol" as a punchline.
Well, sorta. I ruled it out because hardware of that era, limited by Voyager's power supply, could not do encrypted communication beyond wet paper bag levels. And like you said, anything more than 20 years old is not in use anymore because people have poked holes in it.
But encrypted communication is all based on same as a passkey in the end (a sequence of secret bytes), whether we are talking encryption based off public/private keys, symmetric keys, elliptic curve, passphrases etc, so it's comparable enough for the point I was aiming for. :)
Consider why a very strong passkey is protective: It is expensive to crack it. Either you spend a ton of expensive computing power to crack it, or you arrange bribes or kidnapping. At some point, the cost is beyond "lol" budget and needs to be worth it for a lot of powerful people.
So basically it's protected by an extremely strong password. :)
