Short-row shaping is my bitch :) Hurrah for proto-jumpers with room for breasts!

Incidentally, male, straight, and prefers the company of women.

What's with the Ms? I'm not leet enough to understand :(

I now have visions of soewhere you go to hang up your breasts when you aren't using them. Well, not you specifically, of course. Generl You, if you like.

Some "broken" Un*x terminals print '^M' when you press Backspace. I'm not sure why it's 'M' - I'd have expected it to be 'I', I think. Hmmmm.

Can Rodney *really* not use Ancient technology?

Why "I"?

I *think* (not being a hardcore SGA-watcher) that Ancient tech only really works properly for people with Ancient genes, or summat. Rodney can sometimes bully it into working with the Power Oof His Mighty Brain, but doesn't have the breeding for it to be easy.

Why "I"?

Because "^X" normally refers to Ctrl+X, which is represented to many applications as ASCII character code N, where N is the index of the letter X in the alphabet, and because Backspace is ASCII character 8 - this would make Backspace "^H", and I'm an idiot who can't count(*), so I got "^I" instead. "^M" would be ASCII character 13, which is Carriage-Return.

I have several pairs of ancient genes, *and* some ancient technology that I seem to be capable of operating (well, a pair of Amiga 1200s, at any rate), no mighty brain-power required....

(*) Actually, I can but I assumed it was a zero-based index, whereas it's not - ASCII character zero is Ctrl+@, not Ctrl+A.

I think the world's about to end. I understood something computer-related.

Clearly, you're superior to Rodney McKay.
