i did similar for dns
Impressive, but for full points it should work on the public internet!
Wow, never considered the possibility of a “flood” mode for traceroute. This is hilarious !
So 8000001 bits? Not byte.
Horses can be bad too... though for different reasons, I suspect.
traceroute -m 60 bad.horse
This is art
I LOLed. Amazing. Bravo!
Incredible concept and execution!
Long, axe-grindy aside: I wish people had collectively decided on some other mostly-black-and-white video to use for this kind of thing than Bad Apple. As a stereotypically nerdy-looking socially awkward male in a world where that is often enough all by itself to be viewed as "a creep", I feel pressured to distance myself from anything that others might interpret as confirmation of that -- like, for example, watching anime featuring young girls dancing in an ambiguously sexual way on a computer screen. (To avoid pointless angry replies: the clip plainly can be interpreted in this way, and that suffices.) Should I have to do this? Of course not, but others' perceptions of me are what they are, and they have serious implications for my quality of life, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. All that, and I don't even like anime! And so I long for the day when BA just... goes away.
Maybe some black people feel the same way about ordering fried chicken at a restaurant, etc.
Holy shit touhou
When the apocalypse happens, I am sure of two things:
1) I will be able to play DOOM on something.
2) I will be able to watch Bad Apple on something.
I suppose there are worse fates.
