Random memory

[pne]

I remember crashing the terminals in the public library for fun occasionally. Back when I was younger and more irresponsible.

I found out that if you enter a search string that's nearly the length of the input field and whose last character is a question mark, the thing will crash. And come back up again, some kind of Unix.

Of course, all those terminals have long since been replaced with desktop PCs, probably running some version of Windows.

OK :)
I was telling you that I used to crash the computers at bookstores. With a mouse and no keyboard you could usually copy words from the texts on the screen (letter by letter if necessary) and use to create commands.
With a touchscreen the window would usually close if you move the cursor to the corners and then you can down the computer and put it into DOS mode.
Then you have a problem without a keyboard.
And I'm mean when I'm bored.

Thank you!

Sorry, I just saw that big block of text and thought, gah, I'm so rusty.

If you need an online dictionary, there is one at mu' HaqwI' (http://www.klingons.org/Hol/muhaqwi_interface.html).
Or do you have pojwI'? If you don't I will have to give it to you.
I was a bit bored AND on my way to the QetlopHom, so I thought just writing in English would not pass enough time. Gotta wait for at least half an hour more before I should leave. Don't want to end up driving around the airport parking lot for three times like I did last time, because parking is only free for 20 minutes. Better to arrive later in the first place.
