Did you copy it from the Internet, or did you do it yourself?
At least in Linux, you can do this with any image using something like jp2a which is usually packaged into any distro repo.
I am nothing but a peddler of stolen ASCII art and memes I’m afraid.
Connoisseur and collector of fine ASCII art you mean. An online archaeologist if you will. :-)
Meme smarter, not harder. 🤌
Preach, sibling.
This gave me a sudden flashback to the days when I had a program on VAX VMS that would spit out ASCII art to a chat console from a collection of dozens.
This was also huge on the old WWW III and other BBS Systems over various networks like FIDO. What a time.
Reminded me of dialing in to BBSs to play LORD. I had a nice collection of ANSI and ASCII art. I thought I was hot shit with my i486 that had two hard drives, 100MB & 200MB. Look out world!
Maaan, I read The Cuckoo’s Egg by Cliff Stoll recently and was more than a little jealous of what y’all got to experience. Sounds like it was a blast : )
Ah damn, I loved that book when I was a kid. I can probably blame it, at least in part, for my career…
(I was a massive nerd and a FidoNet sysop back in the 80s & 90s, and got my first VMS and Unix experience hopping onto academic networks over dialup and X.25 gateways using, err, “unconventially obtained” credentials… This experience helped me convince my interviewer at Imperial College to overlook my less than stellar academic record to admit me to their Computing peogramme.
That book - and the movie WarGames - were definitely inspiring, if not life-changing.)
What is this crap supposed to be?
