Doood - Facebook has a "It's Complicated" button. Use it. We don't really
care - we debug hardware and software, not liveware.

Agreed. But she values the respect and standing that I have had in this
community. Being able to admit where I stand in public is a huge sign of
trust in her keeping her word. Like I said, she's smarter than me; it's
taken me 11 years to try to play the game we started 12 years ago. But
each of us deserves to be shown respect, something I didn't learn until
this day. Saying this in public is an important development for me. Heck,
the it's complicated button is on the level of being a blockbuster true love
drama (think Hackers, but as a real life true story).

Sorry for the distration. People who know me will know that when I say
Erika-with-a-k deserves the respect of this community for her own merit as
a talented hacker know that I rarely pay such compliments. Many people
here have my respect. I want to be shown that same respect myself and to/by
the person I love.

For what it's worth, liveware can be hacked. I'm in awe of someone who
showed me her elite hacker skills in a way that is life changing. She
hacked my brain and it took me 11 years to defuse her virus. Elite. =-)

This happened on Brain v2.0 released February 7th, 1998. The only relevant
config option was CONFIG_MALE=y. The backtrace will be coming out in blog
form at some time in the near future, but I had to store it in my verbal
memory for lack of a serial console. If anyone has any hints on how to
install netconsole on current Brain modules, I'd greatly appreciate a
detailed HOWTO on the subject.

I need CONFIG_ERIKA enabled in order to run Life v2.0 happily, so disabling
it is not an option. CONFIG_JENN is enabled as well for similar reasons.
