- DiggDugglas, on 10/10/2007, -1/+50I put on my robe and my wizard hat
- TheMidnight, on 10/10/2007, -1/+34He's deleting his Mplayer history...
- Niten, on 10/10/2007, -1/+27That's "piped", mister.
- cygnus2112, on 10/10/2007, -1/+23I guess they really didn't need to label "cat" or "man".
- holydope, on 10/10/2007, -0/+21Been looking for this poster for a while. Anyone know where I could get it?
- PerfektXj, on 10/10/2007, -2/+22Sites going way slow, heres a mirror for anyone who needs http://bestpicever.com/pic-1024-Unix-magic
- latova, on 10/10/2007, -0/+20Do not question him, his hat says SU.
- Terr01, on 10/10/2007, -2/+20Nay, for thou first must slay thine zombies.
- TheMidnight, on 10/10/2007, -1/+17Oh glorious UNIX Wizard, will thou grant me one hundred percent user uptime with zero percent CPU usage?
- underdog5004, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15I like how the contents of the shell are being drained into (presumably /dev/) null.
- Markie1006, on 10/10/2007, -3/+16This is obviously a plant by the 'Get The Fact' crowd.
A true UNIX guru needs no wizards. - SPThom, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11It's not a backup if it's pointing to the same place.
- nzezelj89, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11BACKUP TWICE ;-) jp, just direct mirror http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/1116/pic478003001189476910qw6.jpg
- rnreekez, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10I like how even the unix wizard is using illegal manual labor. (window)
- schestowitz, on 10/10/2007, -4/+13Why is he piping his output to null?
- Terr01, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9The output is undefined. Where else should it go?
- Otto, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Mirror for those of us that can't load "bestpicever" due to blockage:
http://dotcache.com/http://pics.bestpicever.com/pics/pic_478003001189476910.jpg - astrotrain, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8And they need no Windows as depicted in the background of the picture...
- Otto, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Why isn't the cat putting something together? He should be attaching a couple of ends of strings or something.
- plamoni, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8I think he looks like a hacker.... he's obviously performing a buffer overflow on the shell...
- TheMidnight, on 10/10/2007, -2/+10Anyone who could draw this well and somehow knows this much about UNIX must be doing a lot of piping. :-)
- MrBabyMan, on 10/10/2007, -4/+11Heh! Root...null...tar...usr...oregano
- apkennedy1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7There are three posters in this series. I have two of them but can't find the final one. They are great... I called the artist and got them directly from him. He is not a Unix guy or a tech guy just some graphic artist with a job to make posters.
- roach, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Right now the best I can do is this...
http://members.iinet.net.au/~dibbz/unixmagic.jpg - keimel, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6The artists website, apparantly:
http://www.garyoveracre.com/ - RavenndudE, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6oregano - GNOME application for schematic capture of electrical circuits
- meuserj, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4My uncle who is a Unix sysadmin always had this on his office wall. I spent a lot of time in his office when I was first learning about Unix from him and slowly understood the visual puns as I progressed.
- Niten, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Can these be purchased anywhere?
- bart9h, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5What makes you think it's illegal?
- FenrisUlf, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4Is that init (the process reaper) working outside?
- dgp1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Another mirror:
http://danpritchard.com/images/unix-magic-overacre-poster.jpg - urgan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3No, the scaling didn't affect the image at all, everything is still very readable ...
Nice job there mate. - sremick, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5Maybe it's for smoking?
- roach, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3I still have this poster as well :) Is it worth much? :)
- antdude, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Is there a bigger size?
- morcheeba, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Yes, you may have that. But, if you ever use more than 0% CPU, then you will be cursed will less than 100% uptime.
- MikeonTV, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5Oregano??
- KyleYankan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2first floor - look out the window, you dolt
- bzooty, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4sure it is...
you never know when you might lose your, um, link - nazsco, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2100% user uptime? Hell no, i'd love to Sleep sometime
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Thats SPAM. Plain and simple.
- SniperX, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Not really. He should be spilling over bottles of contents into the shell.
- flashingcurser, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1But it's a peasant in the window.....
- ronaldb, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Dennis. Not a peasant. Dennis. You didn't bother to find out his name, now, did you?
- pointfivezero, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000594.html
http://www.unix.org/uposter.html - bart9h, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Indeed.
btw, is this a gnu? http://www.garyoveracre.com/portfolio/11.html - MikeWanDo, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3I can has UNIX?
- sacherjj, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3Nope. It just wasn't very good sarcasm.
- superkendall, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Sorry man, that's a buffalo. or at least not a very good GNU at all.
- figec, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I have another one from around the same time where it is BSD vs SYSV. Funny to see Sun represented on the BSD side.
