Dave Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Hackerdom easily tolerates a much wider range of sexual and lifestyle variation than the mainstream culture. It includes a relatively large gay and bisexual contingent. Hackers are somewhat more likely to live in polygynous or polyandrous relationships, practice open marriage, or live in communes or group houses. In this, as in general appearance, hackerdom semi-consciously maintains `counterculture' values. I have to say I don't quite fit that part of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alt_f13 Posted August 23, 2003 Author Share Posted August 23, 2003 I fit that entire thing... minus being gay, dirty, and living with a bunch of other hackers... Edit - Oh yah, I like my beer too. Ever had Rickards Red, YT? Very smooth, perfect sweetness. No monkey piss super alchoholic sweetness most Molsens have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YT2095 Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 well yeah, the gay bit`s out the question, and I`m monogomous so`s ma wife. alt_f13, can`t say I have to be honest. I`ve tried beers from around the world but that one doesn`t ring a bell. Baltika 9 was my fave when I was in Russia though, it`s a beautiful beer, 8% but still crisp and refreshing, non of this syrup stuff that`s technicaly a wine.

Sayonara Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 Replace the word "hacker" with "internet geek" and it all works. I mean, for god's sake, everyone who said "ooh that fits me perfectly,wow", keep your hand in the air if you have ever used usenet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickards is a Canadian label brewed by Molsen. Once I tried it I've not found anything I like better. And it's the same color as your mug icon.

Dave Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 I used to use it a bit in the 'early days' about 6 yrs ago, but I don't use it at all now. It always seemed too complicated for me tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YT2095 Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 Sayonara, yup, it was half the size of a breifcase and a bit taller I bought it second hand from a mate that upgraded to 20 meg !!! AND bought himself (or rather his mother did) a US Robotics Courier 14.4 modem! didn`t even think it was possible in those days and it wasn`t much smaller than the HDD he sold me ) he also lumbered her with a £2000+ fone bill ( we got plenty good pirate s/ware from him though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 The sad thing was that I had a 14.4 modem until about 2 years ago :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
