this is SO funny lol
don't try @home kids!

here's a sample response from one of the readers to the claim that "if your son uses matrox cards, he's a hacker":

"While these cards do have limited support for 3D graphics, this support is actually designed to discourage use of 3D hacker tools like Quake, Abnormal Tournament and "Serious Sam", due to low framerates and numerous rendering glitches. The hacker card of choice is made by nVidia, an evil Canadian liberalist company whose graphics cards are called the "G-Force". These cards come with a specially designed "GPU", or "Guessing Password Unit", which is specially designed for hacking into computers and stealing people's passwords and credit card numbers.
"

this "arcticle" is mirrored from http://www.adequacy.org/


here's a link to the original article: http://www.adequacy.org/?op=displaystory;sid=2001/12/2/42056/2147
it has 4797 comments :)

It's amazing how some people are really stupid!!!

Probably, it's the most stupid article I've read in my life!

I only get:Document has been moved to another location due to heavy traffic. Please tell the people at http://www.retrogames.com/ to update their links. Thanks :-)
(same a few hours ago) :(


But hey, while reading some other stuff on the adequacy page, a thought formed in my mind: Never underestimate the power of human stupidity!!

Before anyone runs with it, keep in mind that Adequacy is a satirical site. Though some would call it an enshrinement of trolling..

i didn't know that. i just read the arcticle, and thought: "it it real?" then i read the responds, and saw that ppl get upset and emotional. so i thought again... hmmm someone is taking this stuff seriously

if ppl treat this as satiric, it's fine, and a GREAT joke :) however if some other ppl treat that as source of knoledge, it's quite annoying... oh well... the edge between truth and extremely good sense of humor might be hard to notice :)

thanx h.

I still can't decide if I should take that article seriously, I would like to believe that nobody is capable of being that irrational. But, that guy wrote two other articles that are equally retarded. One is against higher education, and the other is against cars. His reasoning in the other two articles is equally belligerent. Everyone should check these other two articles out, just follow the link to adequacy.org and click on his name at the top of the "hacker" article.

It's all tongue-in-cheek on adequacy.org.

Most of the Adequacy people also post to www.kuro5hin.org , where they take things a bit more seriously :)
