Alright i know that many people dont like "hackers" :roll: But the article at

http://www.adequacy.org/stories/2001.12 ... .2147.html

Takes it to the extreame. This dude lables all hackers as crackers and totaly destroys us. Saying we are illegal punks who dress, talk, and act like total jackasses.


he said

Hackers tend to dress in bright, day-glo colors. They may wear baggy pants, bright colored shirts and spiky hair dyed in bright colors to match their clothes. They may take to carrying "glow-sticks" and some wear pacifiers around their necks.

and

If your son is failing courses in school, or performing poorly on sports teams, he may be involved in a hacking group, such as the infamous "Otaku" hacker association.


So we are aparently stupid kids ... when otaku means family and is usualy used for manga!!!

ps
i do know people who are like this (1 or two) and neither knows shit about computers!!!

Before you get your nuts in an uproar check this out

This Article is just a joke, essentially making fun of people like that. He also has an article saying that he was going to protect his kids from college. :o

Ignorance, that is all he is expressing.

Ignorance, that is his downfall.

Ignorance, that is his sin.

Anybody who is offended by the article in the first post would be no more ignorant than the person who they claim is ignorant.
