It's ASCII and then ROT13!

Thanks to a ROT13 encoder/decoder that I wrote in C a few weeks ago.

To clear any confusion:

I used this translator:

It's not ROTFL, that's for sure.

Some girl I know, don't worry about it.

Oops...I did not know i would start this.
WTF?

smeezekitty: I use debian because it is modular. Fedora on the laptops because of wireless.

The desktop is setup to dualboot with FreeBSD.

EricTRA: Not worth replying to.

For those how can't read binary:

Always ranting about apt-get! You know how to put packages on hold right?
You should be using aptitude anyway.

Next time you have a glibc upgrade problem, can you let us know?

Since its not encoded anymore, i would strip the offensive language.

I think that if you are having such trouble with package managers, maybe you should try the more common distros, I see that it says just DSL and KateOS in your info.

Oops, my bad. Cleaned up now. I often forget how conservative this forum is, and how everyday four letter words are considered offensive.

I wonder if smeezekitty thought no-one would decode the message

Actually there are 11 kinds of people: Those who can nativelly read binary, those who decode it with online decoders, and those that just can't even use an online binary>ascii decoder.

Yeah. Those that can read binary and those who used a decoder to decode and read it.

As for my favorite distro, well, It's a close call between M$-Linux 11.2 and Sabayon 5.
