巨搞笑：計算機上的小鬧劇（轉）

Everything you always wanted to know about computers...
INTRODUCTION
BIOS: Hmm... I'm waking up. Linux Loader, are you there ?
LILO: Hmm... Yes, I'm here. How do you do ? It's always a pleasure to work
with you.
( ^9 W7 Y/ b  z  h: ]" eLet's load the kernel and launch init, the Mother of All Processes...
INIT PROCESS: Hmm... Thanks Lilo. Let's initialize the system, mount the
file-systems and launch one hundred daemons. OK, now I'm ready for logins.
LOGIN: Hey, I'm receiving a login request from user thierry, password guvreel.
- ~! l( H& K5 {INIT PROCESS: Ha ha ! This user is stupid, his password is just his user name
with a ROT13 encoding. Let's make fun of him.
USER THIERRY: Hello everybody, please be kind with me today. I have a lot of
serious things to do.

USER THIERRY: I'll start with that C++ program I have been trying to write
for the last fifteen days. gcc, could you please compile it for me ?
GCC COMPILER: Very well, sir. So, your program is myproc.C. Let's parse it.
Preprocessor directives, class declarations, comments, type declarations
3 P9 K+ C% Y3 R2 i3 r; f' t* V" @7 |... Well, what is the purpose of this program ? Method declarations,
9 v# q% t$ H8 m* D$ B, [other comments, macros... Hey, there are only declarations, no real code
to do some real work. I'm completely lost in your code !
Each time I compile C++ code, I regret I'm not a Lisp interpreter.
USER THIERRY: Oh, please, try another pass. I remember I wrote some real code
; j+ P# J- R! I6 E; \around line 1764.
GCC COMPILER: Line 1764 says: cout << "Hello, world" << endl. You're right,
that is a piece of real and useful code, with no syntax error. Let's
, t7 J* Q" w1 [, z) i1 f7 V1 p; Wbuild and link that program...
Now it's finished, here is your executable.

MYPROG PROCESS: Hmm... I'm waking up. I am a C++ program, so I will first
create a few objects which will consume a lot of memory for no reason
at all.
# H+ O* ]( r' A1 lC++ OBJECT #1: I'm hungry ! Gimme memory !
C++ OBJECT #2: Memory ! I need more memory !
MYPROG PROCESS: Object #1, please free some memory for object #2.
# r% f% c+ p0 ^9 B' @C++ OBJECT #1: No, I was programmed to eat memory and never release it. My
programmer is an illiterate who has learnt C++ because it came before
Visual Basic in the dictionary.
SWAP PROCESS: EMERGENCY ! You are running low on memory. You have already used
all of the swap space although you have just started !
2 i( k" C$ N1 N9 K9 I+ J0 fMYPROG PROCESS: Object #2, you should really stop using all that memory or I'm
going to install a garbage collector.
C++ OBJECT #2: Never ! Garbage collectors are nazis who exterminate innocent

interesting. I am very surprised.

CHAPTER II - Sending mail
USER THIERRY: That's enough, I'll just send an email to the cpp-help mailing
2 @3 l- q' m6 y; I; W6 w/ Nlist, and maybe some C++ guru will have a solution for me.
SENDMAIL DAEMON: Hello, this is sendmail, I'm listening to all your requests,

yes, of course. So the address is [email protected], and the sender

SENDMAIL: I'm sorry, sir, but I have been configured to rewrite your name as
Sucker in your outgoing emails. Have you read my documentation ?

SENDMAIL: What ? Did you modify a Sendmail configuration file by hand ? It's
far too complicated for a normal human being, don't you know that ?
USER THIERRY: I only followed the instructions...
SENDMAIL: You're clueless, I won't argue with you any more. Besides it's too
late, I have already sent your ridiculous email to that mailing list where
