Haha Nope but it was a fascinating read and really broke it down to make it easy to understand. Even though I don't know shit about computer engineering I still find this sorta stuff fascinating, the history of early computing that is. Is there a universal language that works for Unix derived systems or does each derivative system use their own special language?

What runs on Unix in modern machines? If you have a Windows computer I thought Windows is what the computer used.

I'm very computer engineering ignorant.

Now you know how those of us who despise marijuana feel. Ever since it went legal I can't drive anywhere without smelling that shit poisoning the air.

You are correct, there are. I've been using one for my public forays for years since I refuse to contaminate the environment.

Ms Murphy can suck me off. Fuck you and your nanny state, social control bullshit. I pay my taxes and work my ass off, if I want a smoke while sitting at the park and relaxing I damn well will do it.

> no one is supposed to place signs on public property.

That is incorrect. You can place signs on the public right-of-way. It's how groups like Westboro Baptist get away with their crazy antics, protesting in the right of way is protected free speech but once you venture onto private property you can be pinged for trespass, same with the signs.
