Possible (nerdy) chuckles

13. (From Jurassic Park) A custom system with millions of lines of code
controlling a multimillion dollar theme park can be operated by a 13 year
old who has seen a Unix system before. Seeing an operating system means you
know how to run any application on that system, even custom apps.
Note: What OS was it really running?
(1) "These are super computers". A CrayOS?
(2) "Quicktime movie, Apple logo, trash can." MacOS?
(3) "Reboot. System ready. C:\" DOS?
(4) "Hey, this is Unix. I know this" Unix?
The computers in Jurassic Park were Cray supercomputers running the MacOS
as a graphical shell of DOS all layered on top of a Unix base.

The Mac wasn't the one that was claiming to run Unix, see here:p
 
Its also possible to get past a lot of the systems security by simply typing OVERRIDE at the command prompt :p

edit: cant believe I blindly missed the first one on the list :o

Also with regard to Independance Day...

Amazing how a Macbook can be interfaced with an alien mothership within seconds (Always knew mac connectivity was alien)
 
Why does every screen displaying a video feed or image have to break up every few seconds? Or at least show artefacts on an irregular basis. :(

What screens do that? If I had something that was doing that, I'd RMA it. :mad:
 
I also notice a lot that Dell still make there 24" widescreen LCD's in around 2050 and beyond, popular monitor, seems OLED just wasnt all that :P
