That one time I almost set fire to a data center with code.
<dehuman> its nice to see you tymat
<dehuman> my fondest mmemory is when you forkbombed lotek.org
<dehuman> and disco called me and said 'WHAT DID YOU DO. WHY IS IT SO HOT,
ITS GONNA CATCH ON FIRE! DAMN YOU'
<dehuman> do you remember?
<dehuman> the good old days
I guess the premise behind the Halt and Catch Fire can be found rooted in reality.
