PePsIcAnpixeled This e-zine was issued by Cybertek Electric: and "Urban Survival" is written by Douglas P. Bell PePsIcAnpixeled To start with, let's get over the idea that all survivalists are going to get out of "the city" in time to set up a "survival retreat". Not all survivalists are going to have the money, time or inclination to leave the city life and move to the middle of nowhere. First off, leaving your job and having no money will doom you faster than anything you can think of...

Times of wide spread knowledge, great ezines, terrific research, and most importantly the time of BBSing. Bulletin Board Systems were the way most hackers and phreakers learned great things.

It seems every BBS I call around here has a "CyberPunk" sub board. Now, that's all fine and good, but a lot of these BBS's I'm talking about are PD BBS'S!!! Public Domain cretins and the CyberPunk Movement DO NOT MIX. The idea that piracy/hacking/phreaking is bad does not compute for a true CyberPunk. Not in a million years. I mean, come on, guys the one place all these people are getting their CyberPunk hard-ons from is of course the William Gibson books. Now, believe me, I'm NOT ripping on...

I have no intention to break any rules. This file looks like it was circulating in the early 2000s. While the information is kinda gross...I think it deserves a place in this archive.

I don't know everything about piracy on the net, but I would go so far to say that I know a fair bit about it. First off, piracy isn't just a few guys who work at cinemas and software stores taking the odd film or game home and sharing it on...

Black ops are based on gaining revenge and/or profit, such as graffiti/vandalism or car shopping or any other such types of theft. Black ops...

There are those who believe that the experienced should finally start teaching the inexperienced, while others say that they should stop tutoring and leave the novice to ponder by themselves without any help or interference, just like the first members of the community had to do when they began...
:ChesterCheetah: This E-Zine was written around 1990s about the Y2K Bug :ChesterCheetah: During the infancy of full scale commercial and government computer use, there was a premium placed on storage space. Because the then modern technology necessitated that all data be as compacted as possible all shortcuts were used to achieve acceptable program sizes. One of these shortcuts was the reduction of a year into a two-digit number, for example "1976" would simply be known as "76" in the...

:Cokebaka: This e-zine was originally written on 1994 by Jeff Koyen :Cokebaka: I sometimes wish that I didn't use vulgar language so often; I've become jaded & desensitized to the impact of obscenity. The English language simply doesn't contain some of the words I need. Specifically, the words I need to convey my utter disgust and contempt for a place called Dave & Buster's, located on the waterfront here in Philadelphia. Based in Texas, D&B's has opened a couple of these places across...
