CTHUNIX


"Most people aren't aware of the fact that UNIX actually dates back
to the Cthulhuvian epoch, and was widely used in R'lyeh. The
R'lyehish word fhtagn is actually a technical term, and literally
means 'waiting on an event'. Thus, 'Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu
R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn' literally means 'in his house at R'lyeh
dead Cthulhu waits blocked on I/O'."

"This patch fixes the Problem of Evil and the dangling-else
ambiguity."

"Yeah, but the config file ... it's like the Necronomicon. You are
warned away, but you go regardless, hoping to learn unearthly
secrets. If your sanity survives, you spend the rest of your life
conversing with daemons, running from shoggoths, and striking fear
into most mortals. I don't know whether it has driven me insane or
revealed to me deep secrets about the universe."
