Now that's some good radio station

Heh.

Have anyone actually seen this? Free Radio Station

It's an online and on-air radio station. The sound transmission consists of a computerized reading of the code used to create the operating system, Linux.

The Linux kernel contains 4,141,432 lines of code. Reading the entire kernel will take an estimated 14253.43 hours, or 593.89 days. So I counted that it's still going to be online for about 84 days because it started on February 3, 2002. I might actually be wrong so if I am, please don't throw rocks at me.

Wow, the surrealists had nothing on this. It is strangely comforting to listen to....or maybe I just need some medical help.

Wanna hear something sad? I can't make xmms work to play it. I don't even know how to make it stream anything

Good thing I've got a search button

Cool

See

Amazing how well a search goes on this site!

So now I'm wondering, if I listen to this constantly, will I eventually learn anything, or is it just "novelty" value?

Cool
