===========================================================================

== Piha ==

EERO: It's huge crowd of folks outside now at the break.

MoTHeR FuCKeR: Guess it's the computer classroom that's drawing the folks now...

EERO: It should end already, that fuss there!

MoTHeR FuCKeR: Guess it won't be goin' on for too long anymaw...

EERO: Well, if it's gonna still go on, then we could like cut the wires of the Internet antenna some day!

MoTHeR FuCKeR: Yeah, we might do that, right.

== ATK-luokka ==

JONETZU: The rear computers are reserved for us!!

TEMETZU: HENCCA was already here, reserving one of them for us...

HENCCA: Yeah, I didn't eat the lunch today at all, so that I could reserve this computer first.

TEMETZU: Could we go back there to that #lietelanta channel we founded last break??

HENNCA: We can't get there...

TEMETZU: Why so?

HENCCA: It's been taken over by some chap who kicks us out whenever we join...

TEMETZU: Fuckin' takeover fags dammit!

JONETZU: Well, let's make a new channel then...

TEMETZU: We should advertise it on #kukka to get folks in there, but we're banned from there...

JONETZU: Well, let's advertise it just on #suoerkukka then, guess we can get some folks even from just there...

HENCCA: But it'd be better if we got our #lietelanta back, 'cause we advertised it so much already!

TEMETZU: HEY GUYS LOOK!!! I just made a whois for that guy who's kickin' us...

HENCCA: "drkstfr"... ain't that fuckin' Jyri Kuusinen!?

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Damn it took quit fuckin' long before ya got that!!

dArK sTuFfEr: Indeed. What an embarrassingly substandard performance.

TEMETZU: But how could it been ye? Ye wasna even here in the classroom when we were puttin' the adverts out??

dArK sTuFfEr: I have a script running on moronic channels, recognising channel advertisements and automatically adding the channels to my botnet.

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Yeah, we've got some higher-level methods, we don't have to do everything manually like some pissy lamers do!

TEMETZU: Yeah, right, we got it that yer better than us, dammit! But let us now back to our channel, y'all fuckin' fags dammit!!!

dArK sTuFfEr: I would recommend that you learn how to keep a channel to yourselves. An empty channel no longer belongs to anyone, so anyone can "take it over".

JONETZU: Like how? Ye mean we should leave some IRC runnin' in this classroom while we're off to a class?

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Don't ya doodz even know what bots are yet???

dArK sTuFfEr: A bot or screen running on a Unix computer would keep a channel reserved 24 hours a day, including weekends.

TEMETZU: I'm sure not gonna buy no Decrepitude account from ye, 'cause yer bullyin' us all the time!!

MIKAEL: Besides, Unix is a totally substandard and obsolete system. Modern 32-bit Windows -

dArK sTuFfEr: In fact I would not even recommend you to have a bot on CWUnet, as its connection is not completely reliable.

MIKAEL: It's good that you admit that the microwave link of yours is a terrible kludge! A proper Windows-based KotiKolumbus -

wArlord: Guess Decre would still be a better choice than havin' an IRC left runnin' on some DOS or Windows box...

HENCCA: At least I'm not fuckin' gonna put no screen on none of yar Linux flupumps, get it already!!

dArK sTuFfEr: I would rather like to recommend you to purchase as shell account from a city-based service provider -

JONETZU: I reckon we could rather like flood some non-existent channel names to clog yer bot down!!

dArK sTuFfEr: What an excellent step forward in your computational thinking, JONETZU. I would recommend you to try the idea immediately.

JONETZU: Whatta fuck?! I'm sure not gonna try if it ye react like that!!!

HENCCA: Yeah, they've sure got some fuckin' trap they're tryin' to lead us into!

TEMETZU: Let's rather try this one damn tuff thang I've just found...

JONETZU: So, ye've found sump'n?

TEMETZU: It's like a kinda script ye can bully Freeneters with!! Look!!

TEMETZU: That MegaBoy's from Freenet... now let's type /fnkill MegaBoy...

HENCCA: Bwahahah!!! He quitted right away!!! This is so fuckin' tuff stuff!!!

TEMETZU: I could even use the IRC script language to automatically fnkill everbody who joins from Freenet ot #kukka or -

JONETZU: #superkukka, 'cause we're banned from #kukka!!

TEMETZU: Who cares what the channel is, as long as we can like MASS-KILL them Freenet morons!!

dArK sTuFfEr: It took as long as six weeks from the seventh-graders to discover fnkill. Not entirely hopeless, but embarrasingly slow nevertheless.

wArlord: Yeah, they even got to change our area codes in the meantime, and change our Kesoil for a Neste...

myXTer: With this speed, I guess they're not makin' any proper flirt automation scripts before their junior high is over...

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Yeah, it only took half a year from us to get to that level!

ELINA: Whatta fuck's a flirt automation??

wArlord: But it seems they've already found out aboot pirate FTPs...

TEMETZU: And pirate DCCs!! Ye can like IRC while yer tradin' pirate stuff!!

dArK sTuFfEr: Well, if you learned and agreed to use screen, you could use IRC and FTP simultaneously -

TEMETZU: Guess the screen wouldna help there at all, 'cause ye should separately download the FTP stuff from the screen machine!

SANNA: Hey, our IRC's broken!!!

dArK sTuFfEr: Oh?

SANNA: We don't stay up there, it cuts off all the time...

HENCCA: Bwahahahah.... SUFFER, YA FUCKIN' BIMBOZ!!

ELINA: Whatta hell?

dArK sTuFfEr: You became victims of seventh-grader script abuse. The fnkill script can force Freenet users out of IRC.

SANNA: Fuck's sake! We made them Freenet accounts all for nuffin'!! I'm startin' to use that guest thing again...

MILLA: Don't go there now! Ye should rather ask Sam to give an account to his machine, I've also got one -

SANNA: I don't wanna bother to make another account, I had to write too much stuff even on that fuckin' Freenet application!!

MILLA: It's much easier to make than the Freenet one... just ask Sam, ye don't need to write nearly nuffin'!

SANNA: Who cares, I'm going back to Jyri's guest thing now!!

ELINA: Should we rather like beat them kids up properly to make them behave, dammit...

MILLA: Rather tell the teacher so they'd get detention...

ELINA: Well, some fuckin' punishment, who cares!! The seventh-grades should like rather play some games -

HENCCA: None of the games work with these shitty school flupumps!!

JONETZU: Right, especially none of the ones that support proper IPX mulitplayer!! All of 'em require at least VGA!!

dArK sTuFfEr: I had not even noticed this. So, it is even a pedagogically good thing that these computers have a local area network but no VGA.

DaRK FuCKeR: But if y'all really wanna play some multiplayer, then go to like BatMUD or sump'n...

JONETZU: That there BatMUD's so hard and borin', 'cause it's only got black-and-green text!!

TEMETZU: Right, I don't get it at all why the Pelit magazine praised it so much...

dArK sTuFfEr: It does not actually require much from a multiplayer game to be superior to some LAN shoot'em'up preferred by brainless kids.

JONETZU: It's not just aboot kids!! I even know one eight-year-old chap who plays Quake!!

wArlord: Well, I'm sure there's even quite a bunch of grown-ups who even play with Legos, so that ain't no proper proof towards nowhere...

dArK sTuFfEr: Not indeed. MUDs are much more advanced and grown-up multiplayer games than the one-dimensional shoot'em'ups.

JONETZU: THREE-dimensional!!!

wArlord: I'd say maybe two and a half...

JONETZU: There's three dimensions properly in Quake!! That's why its engine ain't workin' properly with flupumps -

dArK sTuFfEr: Three is a miserably low number of dimensions compared to the cosmological multidimensionality of MUDs.

dArK sTuFfEr: The developers and most players of these games are old, highly enlightened, gray-bearded Unix gurus.

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Yeah, and then they DARE to brag they know some 18-year-old who plays Quake... they're all kids in the eyes of da university elitez!!!

dArK sTuFfEr: The high gurus of universities started to develop MUDs before we were even born. They have had time to develop into worlds of their own.

OONA: Hey, it's sounds so mystical and exciting, all the secret hidden worlds of the Internet!!

dArK sTuFfEr: Indeed. In the Internet cosmology, WWW represents the mere superficial surface limited in what is attainable by consumption-oriented masses.

dArK sTuFfEr: On the depeer levels, there are thousands of other worlds, even the discovery of which may require undergoing profound stages of enlightenment.

OONA: Couldya like show me some of the deeper worlds?

dArK sTuFfEr: I would really like to, but it is impossible before you have undergone the shamanistic initiations required by these layers of reality.

OONA: I've got the time and patience to all of that shaman stuff, 'coz I'm actually so much interested 'bout all that!!

dArK sTuFfEr: If you visit me on the autumnal holiday, I can maybe show you the occult BBS system that is part of DECREPiTUDE.

ELINA: HEY, FUCKIN' TODDLERS THERE, QUIT KILLIN' US ALREADY OR I'M GONNA KILL Y'ALL FOR REAL!!!

HENCCA: Bwahahahah!!!

TEMETZU: 'Twas good that ye said it out loud that yer gonna go to IRC with the Decrepitude guest thang!!

HENCCA: Yeah, and we would've noticed it anyway, 'cause ya joined #superkukka for starters...

TEMETZU: And we dinna even hafta quit IRC to get to kill ya!! This telnet supports many connections at the same time!!

ELINA: I'M GONNA BEAT YA FUCKIN' KIDS UP NOW!!

JONETZU: OWWW!! YE FUCKIN' HIT ME FOR REAL!!

TEMETZU: OWWW!! DAMMIT!!!

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Bwahahah, fuckin' lamer-freshmen got what they deserved!!

SANNA: Err, hey Sam, couldye like make an account for me on yer computer?

myXTer: Yeah, I can... what would you like your user account to be? "sanna"?

SANNA: Yeah, put it like sanna...

myXTer: Allright... Now, take a telnet connection to the address that ends with 42, so you'll get to set your password...

SANNA: Ye mean like 194.251.252.42?

myXTer: Yeah...

SANNA: So, I should just type sanna here in the login...?

myXTer: Yeah, put it there, and also set sanna as the password...

SANNA: Okey...

SANNA: Hey, I'm not gettin' in with it!!

HENCCA: BWAHAHAH!!! I GOT TO DO IT FIRST!!

ELINA: DON'T YE FUCKIN' GET IT ON THE FIRST TIME, GODDAMMIT!!!

HENCCA: OWWW!!! GET OFF ME!!! OWWW, GODDAMMIT!!!

dArK sTuFfEr: You should have maybe defined the specific IP address the first login is allowed from.

myXTer: Well, yeah, right, gotta do it better next time...

SANNA: But how can I get in now that it's not acceptin' my password???

myXTer: Well, I can remake the account, and you can like come here to my computer to type the password you actually want...

dArK sTuFfEr: First learn to destroy the user account and all of its processes to prevent the seventh-graders from disturbing the operation...

myXTer: Yeah, I know...

wArlord: On the other hand they wouldna have the time for such a disturbance now, 'cause Elina's beatin' them up...

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Yeah, buahahah!! Da kidz gettin' beaten up by a woman!!

dArK sTuFfEr: The seventh-graders are fortunately on such a low level that they have not even learned how to sniff network packets yet.

myXTer: Yeah, but I'm still a bit terrified about writing the passwords over the telnet...

mR.mEgAsTuFf: But what if they already can do it but just ain't revealed it yet?

wArlord: I don't reckon it's even possible to sniff over some DOS network drivers...

dArK sTuFfEr: Still, it is only a matter of time until the pupils advance to this level. I also hope it to happen as soon as possible.

wArlord: But we should really have a DOS version of SSH before it...

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Or then just install Linuxes on these computers. When would we install them, by da way?

dArK sTuFfEr: There is far too little free hard disk space on the student computers for this purpose.

mR.mEgAsTuFf: I guess there's lotsa stuff to delete... like some Swedish language education proggies?

wArlord: Another alternative would be to use a kinda hyper mini distribution...

dArK sTuFfEr: It might be possible for us to shrink one of them down to even to just a couple of megabytes.

DaRK FuCKeR: But we should still repartition the hard disks just for that...

dArK sTuFfEr: No, we should not. UMSDOS facilitates the use of a DOS partition as a Linux filesystem.

DaRK FuCKeR: Oh, so they've invented sump'n like that too!

myXTer: At least there's something called MonkeyLinux, that's only got a couple of floppies you unzip to the "LINUX" directory on DOS...

dArK sTuFfEr: And I assume even that might have a considerable number of excess files for SSH use.

wArlord: It's still a bit over-the-top to install many megabytes of an operating system just for SSH... a DOS SSH would be better.

myXTer: I wonder if there's ever gonna be a DOS version of SSH, 'cause DOS has its own limitations...

dArK sTuFfEr: Besides, a local Linux would facilitate a multitude of activities that are difficult over a remote connection.

wArlord: Dunno if that's worthwhile...

myXTer: On the other hand, if we wanna use this classroom network with Linux, we should first port Osmo's Auditek driver to Linux...

dArK sTuFfEr: Indeed. I accidentally ignored the need for such a driver.

ELINA: Guess the kids be now beaten up properly...

SANNA: It doesn't matter so much anymaw, 'cause I already got this account to Sam's machine already.

ELINA: Well, I'm sure they would've soon found a way to kill that too! Better to give 'em some extra beatings beforehand...

SANNA: Yeah, guess so... by the way, the next week's our autumn holiday.

ELINA: Yeah.

SANNA: I don't know how I can survive the holiday without IRC!!

MILLA: Yeah, I guess we should ask the phone numbers of all the good IRC folks and then call them on the holiday...

SANNA: By the way Milla, d'ye have Janetzu's current number?

MILLA: Nope...

SANNA: We could maybe like ask for it when she gets to the IRC next time.

MILLA: I heard she uses far more sump'n called KissFM chat and not much IRC anymaw...

SANNA: Oh, right!! Could we get there with these here computers?

dArK sTuFfEr: That sound like a WWW-based kludge.

ELINA: Janetzu said there's a much better spirit there, much less of the know-it-all folks and kickers!

dArK sTuFfEr: Oh. But I think no WWW-based system has anything new to provide compared to the more establised and eternal systems -

ELINA: Who cares dammit!! Could we get to try it out somehow!?

dArK sTuFfEr: In principle you could try whether you can use it with Lynx, but I am not convinced at all that it would work with it.

MIKAEL: You should get you own Internet to your home, and a good computer for it, so you wouldn't have that kinda limitations!!

SANNA: We can't afford nuffin' like that!!

MIKAEL: I believe that your family would very well have extra ten thousand marks for it, if you just explain this well enough to your dad -

SANNA: He ain't got no extra ten thousand, he fuckin' lost his job!!

mR.mEgAsTuFf: And ya don't even fuckin' need some ten thousand marks for that, dammit!! He's just tryin' to pull ya 'round to get his dad sell computers!!

wArlord: Yeah, we and Osmo can deal a computer to y'all at a lot lower price than the Berglund mafia...

dArK sTuFfEr: The price would probably stay at a fraction of Mikael's ten thousand, even if the cost for a local-area CWUnet connection was included.

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Yeah, and who fuckin' even listens to some Mikael who fuckin' got "prostitute" in da career selection proggy!!

SANNA: Hey, I got that one too...

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Yeah, but hey, MIKAEL got it!! Bwahahah!! Think 'bout it!! And then he even started to ponder 'bout WHICH SCHOOL TO APPLY TO!!

DaRK FuCKeR: Yeah, bwahahah!!! Whatta lame-o!!!

SANNA: Hey, what happened now?? I can't write nuffin' anymaw!!

myXTer: I guess we lost the conncetion to the outer world...

TEMETZU: At least our IRCs dinna cut off!!

dArK sTuFfEr: Neither did my DECREPiTUDE connection. It seems it is F-Light that no longer responds to ping.

wArlord: Wonder if some truck went under the wire and ripped it off...

myXTer: Or might've been just the wind...

wArlord: Yeah, 'twas quite a hazardy wiring there, we made over the paved road.

dArK sTuFfEr: Anyway, the status of the Decrepitude - F-Light link will probably be clear this evening at latest.

SANNA: But don't we now get there to Sam's computer we just made an account for??

myXTer: Well, you don't, if we lost the physical link...

SANNA: Bloody hell then, let's get back to Freenet or somewhere...

ELINA: Or we could try if that whatever-chat works, if Jaana's really there??

TEMETZU: Or then y'all could just download the DOS version of IrcII and use it -

ELINA: Shut it up already, or should I beat ye up again!?

TEMETZU: S-sorry...

SANNA: Sounds quite hard anyway...

MIKAEL: It's much easier, 'cause there's no user accounts or other Unix-Linux shit!!

SANNA: We don't care aboot such tunin' right now! We're goin' to that chat now!!

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Good luck if ya wanna handle it with Lynx without any hassle...

*PIRRRR*

SANNA: Fuck, we ran outta lunch break!!

ELINA: Let's get to the geography class then, dammit...

wArlord: But y'all should really stay at the club after the school, so we'd have some more time to check out how it might work.

SANNA: Yeah, we're gonna stay there for sure...

== corridor ==

wArlord: Well, whaddye reckon' aboot the current situation, Jyri?

dArK sTuFfEr: At the moment, I am exceptionally hopeful. Not only for the seventh-graders but the others as well.

wArlord: Right, sure they'd become sump'n in the end... we could then like pass our key on to them next summer!

mR.mEgAsTuFf: What would they do with da fuckin' key that won't work no more?

dArK sTuFfEr: Despite its unfunctionality, the key still has a strong symbolic value as a sceptre of Lietevesi eliteness.

mR.mEgAsTuFf: Oh, right, some of that mumbo-jumbo once again.

dArK sTuFfEr: After GENERATOR PARTY is over, we might make the final decision on the issue.

mR.mEgAsTuFf: I still think da freshmen are still a bit too lame... they even ain't got no crew yet...

dArK sTuFfEr: I still steadily believe, that the scene atmosphere on the forthcoming party shall inspire them to establish a crew.

DaRK FuCKeR: I'm so damn excited! We're gonna get to be as elite as cULT oF pOWER!!!
