20:16:17 --- Topic for #everything set by Juliet at Tue Jun 27 00:00:33 2000
20:16:17 -ChanServ- Welcome to the IRC channel of the website of the froup alt.fan.douglas-adams
20:16:17 <resc> it could send them a nastygram
20:16:19 <dwyn> whoa!!!
20:16:22 <dwyn> VICE rules :)
20:16:30 <CaptainSpam> 'Ey, dwyn.
20:16:32 <ithron> removes any at, cron entries.
20:16:55 <astatine> in addition to that, nihil should automatically attempt to crack into the luser's home box if the luser is using telnet or ssh
20:16:57 <dwyn> i should see how much i remember from c64 assembler :)
20:17:04 <ithron> heh.
20:17:27 <astatine> and then wipe out all the luser's partitions
20:17:31 <resc> heh
20:17:35 <resc> that'd be good
20:18:03 <resc> it should set up a cron entry to call their home phone number every hour
20:18:07 <astatine> of course, it would have to be constantly updated to take advantage of the latest root exploits
20:18:10 <astatine> another nice idea
20:18:47 <resc> i like BH-mode in slay
20:18:57 <astatine> hehe
20:19:11 <astatine> does BH stand for BOFH?
20:19:37 <resc> echo "${ME}: $SIGNAL is kicking $1's butt!"
20:19:43 <resc> astatine: could be
20:19:46 <resc> no
20:19:46 <-- jkfghldagv has quit (Deep Reality beckons)
20:19:48 <resc> it's butthead
20:20:05 <resc> "Beavis, don't make me have to smack you."
20:20:27 <astatine> maybe, nihil could also attempt to trace the luser back to their real identity and real space address
20:20:36 <resc> ooh
20:20:46 <astatine> nice for getting back at spammers and rogue cancellers
20:20:55 <resc> tell the IRS that they're evil and aren't reporting their income correctly
20:21:02 <astatine> ahh
20:21:35 <resc> spoof a ping flood to packetstorm.securify.com from their address
20:21:46 --> chinoodle (henry.todd@firelock.demon.co.uk) has joined #everything
20:21:48 <astatine> hehehe
20:22:12 <resc> add k-lines to a bunch of irc servers
20:22:31 <astatine> nihil should be able to make a target luser's life *really* miserable
20:22:34 <resc> delete their users on everything, slashdot, freshmeat, et al.
20:22:39 <resc> indeed
20:22:54 <astatine> maybe i should really implement this thing
20:23:00 <resc> you should
20:23:00 <ithron> post their home phone, address, etc. to usenet ..
20:23:04 <resc> ooh!
20:23:09 <astatine> and their credit card numbers
20:23:12 <resc> heh
20:23:13 * ithron nods
20:23:24 --> conesus (irc@dialcust-159.ts4.cv.oh.verio.net) has joined #everything
20:23:30 <ithron> and when I say "usenet" I mean ALL of usenet.
20:23:33 <resc> ithron: in that same post, it should give a pointer to some of the "anarchy" websites
20:23:38 <astatine> full crossposting?
20:23:46 <resc> where they tell you how to break into houses and such
20:24:09 <resc> ithron: you do that from THEIR box
20:24:30 <resc> 'cause they'll get blackholed in half a second
20:24:38 <-- conesus (irc@dialcust-159.ts4.cv.oh.verio.net) has left #everything
20:24:48 <resc> we scared conesus away :-)
20:25:12 <astatine> i won't be typing for a while because i have been forced to do something by my parents
20:25:19 <resc> ah
20:26:07 <ithron> resc: from their box .. exactly. ;)
20:26:16 <resc> fun
20:26:28 <resc> could do a smurf attack
20:26:39 <ithron> yes ... make sure to point as many insulting things in this usenet post too.
20:26:44 <resc> heh
20:26:59 <resc> then you wouldn't need to do the smurf attack yourself
20:27:00 <ithron> to be sure someone at least calls/goes to house and beats the crap out of them.
20:27:12 <resc> offer a reward for their death
20:27:21 <resc> on usenet
20:27:37 <resc> or no
20:27:41 <resc> just send the following
20:27:49 <resc> to each newsgroup, separately
20:28:33 <resc> HI I AM (username) AND I AM NEW TO USENET HOW CAN I FIND OUT WHERE GOOD CLIET IS I WANT TO BEE COOOOOOOL SO BE NICE AND HELP ME
20:28:44 <astatine> this should really kick ass!
20:28:48 <ithron> yes .. and post all their dox.
20:28:52 <Dis> heheh
20:28:55 <ithron> and an irc thing should be done too.
20:29:05 <resc> k-line them
20:29:13 <resc> all over the place
20:29:18 <ithron> GET THEM klined. ;)
20:29:22 <astatine> it should also spoof an attack/annoy bot that looks like it is running on their box
20:29:28 <ithron> exactly.
20:29:32 <resc> hmm
20:29:40 <ithron> no need to spoof .. actually run it off their box. ;)
20:29:51 <CaptainSpam> So... the AUTHORITATIVE can of administrative whoop ass?
20:29:51 <ithron> seeing as how nihil will have it rooted and such.
20:29:55 <resc> install back oriface on their box if it's a windows box
20:29:58 <resc> CaptainSpam: indeed
20:29:58 <astatine> that wouldn't work if you already nuked all their partitions
20:30:08 <ithron> astatine: oh .. I missed that part. ;)
20:30:13 <resc> astatine: you set it up to nuke their partitions later
20:30:23 <resc> put it in the startup folder
20:30:25 <CaptainSpam> partition nuke comes LAST, I take it.
20:30:42 <resc> next time they reboot... oops
20:30:46 <CaptainSpam> But, what would LAST be?  After posting to every newsgroup?
20:30:59 <resc> CaptainSpam: no, let them suffer for a bit
20:31:09 <CaptainSpam> Aha.
20:31:22 <CaptainSpam> Good point, the target of nihil wouldn't know what to do.
20:31:30 <resc> indeed
20:31:42 <CaptainSpam> But, using it on a clued user wouldn't get far, THUS the purpose of nihil...
20:31:50 <CaptainSpam> ...internet Darwinism.
20:32:04 <resc> if it was a windows box you could set up passwordless full access to their whole disk
20:32:09 <resc> fun, CaptainSpam 
20:32:13 <CaptainSpam> Heh
20:32:26 <resc> or even if it was a rooted unix box
20:32:28 <astatine> maybe it should also post some kiddie porn on their box and make it available via FTP or SMB
20:32:42 <resc> ooh, good one
20:32:44 <ithron> ah.
20:32:52 <CaptainSpam> Can't forget to advertise.
20:32:54 <ithron> or spread an ILOVEYOU type of thing.
20:33:47 <astatine> with obvious signs that it came from the target
20:33:48 <resc> set up their box to try to root the fbi
20:33:49 <ithron> someone will have to node this.
20:33:58 <chinoodle> why not just tip off the FBI that they're terrorists while you're at it?
20:34:05 <resc> heh
20:34:06 <ithron> chin: good idea.
20:34:12 <CaptainSpam> I like that.
20:34:36 <chinoodle> they'd get their door kicked in at 2 in the morning...
20:34:40 <resc> make a rot13'd communication to fidel castro about new nuclear technology
20:34:47 <ithron> kiddie porn disseminating, worm spreading, terrorists.
20:34:54 <ithron> heh.
20:35:01 <ithron> that might be a little TOO obvious. :P
20:35:04 <resc> heh
20:35:08 <chinoodle> this guys turning into quite the badass
20:35:21 <resc> should write a manpage
20:35:26 <CaptainSpam> We're looking at SLIGHTLY obvious, but not BLARINGLY obvious.
20:35:36 <resc> nihil - destroy target life
20:35:50 <CaptainSpam> SYNTAX: nihil user
20:35:53 <resc> ok, pipe it through /usr/games/eleet
20:35:58 <chinoodle> nihil?  i know a guy called nihil...
20:36:12 <astatine> not necessarily directly kill the target - just make their live so bad that they commit suicide or go insane
20:36:24 <ithron> mojoe's [an open letter to dman] writeup is rather hilarious.
20:36:30 <resc> so, utterly ruin target life
20:36:49 <ithron> just because you don't care.
20:37:02 <ithron> making "nihil" quite a fitting name.

20:37:40 <CaptainSpam> OPTIONS: user: The user to LART
20:38:06 <resc> it should have the option to do all this stuff, so you can use each letter of the alphabet

20:39:30 <CaptainSpam> True dat.

20:39:58 <resc> + by
20:39:59 <ithron> it would probably be better as a C thing.
20:40:07 <resc> 'cause C can do anything!
20:40:10 <ithron> but perl is .. funner or something.
20:40:35 <-- CowboyNeal_ has quit (The tracks go off in this direction...)
20:40:40 * Orion is back after 48m54s..
20:40:45 <resc> should do it in c, but make it insanely general, like sendmail

20:45:02 <ithron> I know qbasic .. 
20:45:05 <ithron> I'm sure it's similar.
20:45:24 <ithron> open "file" as # for (output|input|random)
20:45:24 <dwyn> i used to know c64 basic, and c64 assembler, too.  but i haven't touched a c64 in about 9 years.
20:45:27 <resc> you could set it up to flame/support (linux|bsd|perl|python|vi|emacs)
20:45:28 <astatine> i've only used Applesoft Basic
20:45:53 <resc> or even microsoft
20:45:54 * getzburg finally got his burner working.
