Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for March 31, 2022

(wonder how many readers much under the age of 50 it’ll take to figure out what the heck those contraptions are on the right of the monitor …)

CRT, modem, what’s not to love?

A CRT, an acoustic modem, and coke cans on top of the external drives. Certainly not a recipe for disaster. /s

I think that they are the " motom for the phone " ? <<< Sorry I did not spell that correctly : (

That’s no Banana Jr.

Later would come Edward Snowden and Wikileaks

That setup is too neat and unrealistic. The wires need to be tangled like a plate of spaghetti.

About five minutes ago I read a CNN article profiling a Ukrainian fellow who was fighting for his country by helping take down the bad guy hackers. He said that if they gave him a gun he would go into combat, but that he could do more good with a keyboard. Interesting story and I wish him well.

I have been computer illite since the dawn of the computer age, what the hell is Ravenswing talking about.

Of course these days all of those egregious acts would have been caught on video and posted within minutes to the great big wide world, and therefore have zero blackmail capacity left.

I have to admit, I’m just as bad. Been an ET/computer tech since ’82. Presently monitoring the weather with three computers and three ham radios. 73.

Somebody (EDITOR!) has a dodgy Past….
