bash.org is gone (self.technology)

It was a collection of silly quotes from IRC channels everywhere, many of which dated back to the 90s. It was rarely ever updated in the 2010s, but now, the URL no longer resolves.

Last capture was July 2023. https://web.archive.org/web/20230601000000*/bash.org

EDIT Someone archived all the quotes on the Internet Archive.

You can type it here and be completely safe! It hides it from us!

Does it work?

hunter2 is not a secure password.

[–] TootSweet 32 points 10 months ago

Yeah, composing your password of all asterisks is probably not good.

[–] BOFH666 1 points 10 months ago

I compliment you for your knowledge 😊

It did. Not a bad password but pretty easy to guess.

But what should I do with this robe and wizard hat?

[–] AbidanYre 30 points 10 months ago

What the f*ck, I told you not to message me again.

It would have been awesome Easter egg to code in Lemmy that hunter2 would been always changed to stars.

The confusion it would have caused would have been legendary

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

But ******* is already stars. I don't see the point.

I miss word filters. How else would we have come up with such greats as weeaboo instead of wapanese?
