I'm disappointed in how hacking works in real life. I'd played enough video games to have an idea how it would go, but I've been hacking games and hardware for like a decade now and not even once have I had to solve a pipe maze puzzle
@foone DRM system where the obvious way to crack it involves solving puzzles that appear when you zoom out and defocus your eyes in a hex editor set to the right width
@foone you know, a terminal program that displays TRACE INITIATED and a countdown and queues up more and more urgent electronic music as the timer reaches zero might actually be a good productivity tool
