Wow, that's a really cool interpretation. I'd never thought of that, but
it makes a lot of sense.
One thing I liked about the movie (well, aside from the yummy hackergrrl,
>;^P~~) was that they did a passable job of getting the *nix directory
strucure right ("root-slash-blah-blah period").
(converging back to SR)
when you think about it, the Matrix in SR is really nothing more than the
ultimate GUI... nothing really would have to change in the machines or the
basal OSes (packets is packets, right? and the decker isn't traveling
through the Matrix, his deck is sending commands out to some other server
that is sending back the MML (Matrix Markup Language, hehe (<IC
BREATH-FLAME = "YES" SINGE-DECKER = "YES" SRC =
"../ic/dragon.dat">) which
the rendering agent feeds into the decker's cortex.... black IC is nothing
more than malicious code fed to the renderer that causes physical damage
to the decker as his body is manipulatd from the inside...) to support
this aside from already extant trends in bandwidth widening and
throughput enhancement. This basal substrate is even implied by the rules
for tortises (i.e. terminal users; that would be linux kernel, what, 30.x?
haha).
"Black ice, shmack ice. Doesn't hurt my ftp client a bit...."
I guess the matrix would be a priori be mostly tcp/ip as oppose to udp...
Packet gets out of order and all of a sudden grandma's naked in the
family virtuachat room... Virtual polygonal gourad-shaded wrinkles...
Ewwww. 8^O~~~~ <---bug eyed bar smiley (saw the other day on irc)
