Phreaknic Archive: The Good and The Bad

And you reeeeally don’t want to see the ugly.

I was doing some snooping and found they archived all the presentation videos from Phreaknic, so I picked out a couple to share. The rest are all linked from the Phreaknic presentations page.

This was my favorite presentation, the postal experiments one:

Click this link. I removed the embedded video to speed loading of my frontpage.

This next one is the best example of what was wrong with the whole thing. The description from the Phreaknic website says:

“This talk gives a brief overview and many kinks and quirks in the F/OSS implementation of the Microsoft Windows OS that is ReactOS. Join Qui Gon Gene and newcomer PJ in the fun as they discover what ReactOS is, what it can and cannot do, and why, despite being an extremely noble project, it isn’t quite ready for primetime. Skill levels from n00b all the way to network and OS gods are welcome to attend.”

Now watch the video (Warning: more profanity than content in this one).

This one is a link now, too.

Unfortunately, the second video was a much more common occurence than the first.
