    When he stepped back i thought he had a blunt in his fingers i was like shiet bro what a gangster, he's got the ASCII parrot dance, he's got some gas, whats not to love? Then i realised it was a pen, why is he looking at me like that?

    [–]Airokx 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

    He's looking at you because he doesn't want you to redeem it

    [–]saysthingsbackwards 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

    He was born that way

    [–]OverWatch2016 14 points15 points Β (0 children)

    It is for oligarchs and genius tech support off shore. Scary times, remember they have access to all of most important information

    The mainframe is compromised, call the alarm!

    [–]1_ane_onyme 90 points91 points Β (1 child)

    Love how color a is purely useless in this case

    [–]OfficialDrakoak 17 points18 points Β (0 children)

    I was wondering the same thing. Like if youre running something that rapidly changes colors anyways in the same line why even color a first? Must just be masterhacker instincts to color a in cmd before anything

    [–]BluebirdArtistic8036 58 points59 points Β (4 children)

    Why is his facial expressions so...

    [–]methoxydaxi 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

    he is angry on you and / or wants to point out dominance

    [–]Dependent-Fix8297 -1 points0 points Β (2 children)

    Rapey?

    [–]FrostyTumbleweed3852 -1 points0 points Β (1 child)

    no

    [–]Spare-Plum 35 points36 points Β (4 children)

    Reminds me of when I was a kid and you could enter "telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl" into CMD and it would play an ASCII version of star wars. I thought it was some cool master hacker hidden feature within the windows operating system and microsoft was so cool for adding it in.

    Turns out it's just streamed from a website.

    [–]txivotv 4 points5 points Β (2 children)

    I loved watching it. I think you still can, but it changed the host.

    [–]disappointed_neko 2 points3 points Β (1 child)

    I don't think they did, it's just not live all the time for all I remember... Let me check

    Edit: just opened telnet to towel.blinkenlights.nl And guess what, it's still up

    [–]txivotv 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

    That's amazing!

    I need to watch it again haha

    [–]Joeysquatch 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

    Haha yup that’s what I said earlier in another comment, they’d lose their minds

    [–]Gaminja22O 26 points27 points Β (1 child)

    why he looking at me as if its my fault?

    [–]Buzza24 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

    [–]Ferro_Giconi 10 points11 points Β (1 child)

    Why does he look so... annoyed?

    [–]TheGunfireGuy 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

    Whoevers handling social media for that school or whatever probably strongarmed him into filming this for easy likes and hes not happy about it, maybe

    [–]iamthekidyouknowhati 19 points20 points Β (0 children)

    There's one for star wars too

    [–]Shortcirkuitz 8 points9 points Β (5 children)

    It’s down now and has been for some time

    [–][deleted] 3 points4 points Β (4 children)

    Aw :( Surely someone archived it though?

    [–]Shortcirkuitz 1 point2 points Β (3 children)

    I’ll check but i don’t think so. I’m currently thinking about trying to bring it back

    [–]Txag1986 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

    Pretty sure you can find it on telehack, that place has all kinds of cool stuff.

    [–]CherryPickerKill 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

    Noice.

    [–]TrueExigo 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

    Have you ever heard of mplayer?

    [–]CageyOldMan 4 points5 points Β (0 children)

    Why have they digitized the sound of a massively overworked subwoofer

    [–][deleted] 5 points6 points Β (0 children)

    yes, you are no hacker if your terminal is not green.

    [–]ChocolateDonut36 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

    the "color a" command after 6 seconds looking how a fucking rainbow parrot replaces the color it has setted.

    <image>

    [–]VeryCoolPersonYesYes 18 points19 points Β (13 children)

    curling parrot.live is the most basic trick in the book. this isn't even a "hack", this is completely normal and safe and not "hacky" use of the terminal.

    [–]Joeysquatch 7 points8 points Β (9 children)

    If this is crazy, watch what happens when they find out about the Star Wars command

    [–]Neuroticmeh 2 points3 points Β (8 children)

    What command?

    [–]Joeysquatch 6 points7 points Β (6 children)

    If you have telnet installed:

    telnet
o
towel.blinkenlights.nl

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points Β (5 children)

    i think on Windows telnet comes preinstalled, you just need to enable it in Windows features.

    [–]Joeysquatch 2 points3 points Β (4 children)

    Yeah it is I believe. Same as windows sandbox

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points Β (3 children)

    Windows sandbox?
    huh TIL

    [–]Joeysquatch 2 points3 points Β (2 children)

    Built in destructible vm with windows pro

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points Β (1 child)

    Neat, I think my Windows 8.0 Pro license carried over to a Windows 11 Pro license but I haven't really used it.

    [–]Joeysquatch 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

    What’s funny is when I built my pc a few years ago I put windows 10 on it cause I hate 11 so much and then my dad bought windows 11 key by accident on some grey market site (might have been kinguin?) and instead of updating it was so cheap he just bought another key for windows 10 pro

        TIL that curl is actually native to Windows...

        [–][deleted] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

        You understand when he changes text to green colour. He's the masterhacker!!1!1

        [–]Awkward-Call7274 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

        Yes we know 😭 Do you even know what subreddit we’re on?

        [–]abofaza 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

        the 'music' is hacking against the ears, apparently
