L0pht Heavy Industries testifying before the United States Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs, Live feed from CSPAN, May 19, 1998. Starring Brian Oblivion, Kingpin (Joe Grand), Tan, Space Rogue, Weld Pond, Mudge, and Stefan von Neumann.
This is the infamous testimony where Mudge stated we could take down the Internet in 30 minutes. Although that’s all the media took from it, much more was discussed. See for yourself.

What do you think of this idea? All government agencies should be required to use (whenever possible) and contribute to free and open source software. or something like, after 8 years, any closed source software in widespread government use, must be made free and open source.
Here’s a US gov document about this idea.
Seems like an interesting conversation to have here. I can think of some recent failures of this idea (was it Germany?)
Think your URL got mangled :(
it’s working perfectly for me. strange
Oooo we may have stumbled upon a bug in Memmy _
Perhaps. It’s just a document about open source software in government.
For some reason the url gets mangled only from the app - assuming it’s probably just bad text sanitization easy fix
