Void Main used to post here, until someone (not to mention names) offended him enough to leave forever and make his own forum with facist policy on it to prevent it happening again. It practically killed FuckMicrosoft when that happened.

Jesus, that's bad....

Well, I love those forums anyway, they are cool!

Cheers for the info.

Void Main's forums are a privilege, not a right - please don't ruin it for the rest of us.  Keep it strictly technical there, please.

WTF happened to my account on voidmain's forums?

You have specified an incorrect or inactive username, or an invalid password.

From what I read in the paper today, there are actually at least three competing groups of hackers using worm variants playing Capture the Flag with unpatched Win 2000 computers worldwide.

Successive worms were written to remove previous competing versions, so either this is a game or the spammers need to protect their bot network to keep that viagra email flowing.

Void Mains forums seem to be dedicated to developing/fixing Linux

These forums are for abusing MS. So you can't really say it competes.

"worm variants playing Capture the Flag"

Sound like fun but I don't do that sort of thing.

Yeah, there has also been a lot of speculation in the past to who exactly Void Main is. Personally all this speculation is rubbish. Void Main is the 21st century incarnation of Jesus Christ. THE LINUX JESUS.

Linux Christ...

Christ is the English representation of the Greek word Χριστός (transliterated as Khrist

[Jack2000]

Yeah and the Linux Jews(Microsoft) Who killed JESUS,
Lets hope they will not do it again you know.

Charles Babbage was the first to conceptualise and design a fully programmable computer as early as 1837

the use of digital electronics (essentially invented by Claude Shannon in 1937)

Defining one point along this road as "the first computer" is exceedingly difficult. Notable achievements include Konrad Zuse's Z machines; the electro-mechanical Z3 was arguably the first universal computer, but it was completely impractical to use in this manner;

the secret British Colossus computer, which had limited programmability but demonstrated that a device using thousands of valves could be made reliable; and the American ENIAC - a general purpose machine, but with an inflexible architecture that meant reprogramming it essentially required it to be rewired.

The team who developed ENIAC, recognizing its flaws, came up with a far more flexible and elegant design which has become known as the stored program architecture, which is the basis from which virtually all modern computers were derived. A number of projects to develop computers based on this architecture commenced in the late 1940's; the first of these to be up and running was the Manchester Small-Scale Experimental Machine, but the EDSAC was perhaps the first practical version.

One of the earliest representations of a binary system was made by Pythagoreans in the 6th century BC. Their system described in fragments of Philolaus show us that binary numeral system was the core of their philosophical teachings. Limit and Unlimited are the two uncreated opposites of Philolaus.

Although the British philosophers Francis Bacon had earlier described a developed system of concealed binary encoding for encryption, the modern binary number system was first fully documented by Gottfried Leibniz in the 17th century in his article Explication de l'Arithm

Atanas Atanasov was a 38-year old Bulgarian crew member of the French oil tanker Limburg. Atanasov was working on the Limburg when it was rammed by an explosives-laden boat on October 6, 2002. After the blast, Atanasov was either thrown or jumped into the sea off Yemen, where he died. His body was found a day later.

Mr. Atanasov became the first Bulgarian victim of international terrorism in modern times.
