I love the demo scene, but the culture is kind of strange. Like I've been fooling around with the C64, and all the tools (emulators, debuggers, and etc) are hosted on source forge, or sometimes this random ftp. The author of the debugger I'm using proudly proclaims that he only works on it when he's fucked up on drugs after parties. The documentation of some tools has lewd ascii art, and etc etc.

I appreciate the anti-corporate vibe and at the same time wish they were a little more professional. Whatever you think, they're true 80s style cyberpunk hackers!
