Who else could just sit here and listen to him typing and talking for like an hour or so? There's just something about the way the keyboard clicks that makes me feel nostalgia or something. ^-^
... I kinda like these viruses because they're not your typical 'wipe everything' type. Like these are creative and fun to look at, maybe a lil bit scary to experience because you're gonna get surprised and worry about what is going on with your computer. Though I don't know, haha
Omg I didn't know this got posted here, anyways, yeah it's me. Well I saw the melting virus on tumblr and that got me into this stuff haha. I love this channel, this guy has cool virus videos hehe.
Omg! I didn't know it was you haha! This is so cool, like this acc is so different that it camouflages as a random ordinary user on a sea of yt comments but you manage to find it and somehow know that it's me, wow! Really small internet, and now I feel like we're more connected. From twitter, tumblr and now youtube. Really cool yeah :)
@@grapeyv... I assume you're trolling? There's a circular bit inside the square case, and that's what spins. Hence "disc" (or "disk", short for diskette, as they were smaller than the enormous hard drives already in use, and spelling that with a C caused confusion)
Techno attempts to fill up the screen and then it becomes a war between techno and cascade in which techno is stopped by cascade creating walls of text to attempt to prevent techno from destroying cascades beautiful creation of flames of text but then techno resumes in its deadly path annihilating all of the walls of Amber text protecting the beautiful flames at the bottom but then cascade kicks it up a notch by locking in techno between two walls of Amber flames of text that keeps techno stopped for quite a while until the one H remaining at the top of the screen refuses to fall causing a hole to appear in the wall so techno can escape and be free from this sandwich of Amber flames of text so then techno gets to the bottom of the screen and destroys the precious flames of text that were kept safe for quite a while by cascade, and then the text is taken over by techno which makes a massive techno box appear and then cascade gives up and goes away.
TSL (The Software Labs) had a disk in their catalog called "Just for Laughs". That's where I got drain, or something very similar, back in the '90s. There were several joke/prank programs on that disk, but it was all harmless as you say.
It's curiously blurry though, isn't it... Generally you expect monochrome screens to be fairly sharp in the horizontal dimension (obvs you can't do much to improve CGA's 200-line vertical rez), because they don't have any dotmasks dividing the surface up into discrete pixels, but this one looks like it might be even less distinct than a typical colour screen. ...um... you _clod._
The WILLTELL program was more than likely displaying the music data itself on-screen, and was _probably_ written in some form of BASIC? Though the DRAIN program is just genius. The CASCADE virus interfering with TECHNO is also great.
that sound is part of the virus there is no water in the drive anyways, if there was water in the drive the computer would not work and, IT WOULD DEFINITELY NOT KNOW THERE IS WATER INSIDE!
I bet back when this computer came out, "comm" would have made the user shit themselves xD They're all like "I just got this technology! I don't want to go to prison over it!!"
1:46 - Some old DELL laptops (such as Dell Latitude D600) actually have a "Key Click Sound" option in BIOS, which does exactly the same! I sorta miss this thing on my current computer, to be honest.
There's actually a video somewhere on YT of someone comparing sort algorithms by converting their activity to musical notes. It's quite cool to listen to and hear how they go about sifting through the data, and actually getting the gist of it quicker and more easily than following the action visually.
dos viruses: here’s a cool light show, but we’re still screwing up your computer. windows viruses: want to see hot babes? lolz no data for u until u pay me.
the 5155 is notorious for having frozen bearings in the disk drive. You have to get a gear/hub puller, and pop the spindle hub off and either relubricate the roller bearings, or just replace them with new ones. They are sealed roller bearings.
... As a person who WASN'T living when this was out, and this lead up to the amazingness we have today, then this woulda been a star-trek prop, and in the way that it's like that, i appreciate how computers have grown up. As a fact, i do enjoy booting up a virtual machine of MS-DOS and seeing what they had, and consodering it to what i have. Think about it. That computer (Or tablet) that you used to post the comment is a star-trek prop to the 70's.
Okay, that is neat! I got Wargame vibes in the first part. The cascading reminded me of rain. Also, love hearing tunes from vintage computers. All the beeps and bloops.
Oh my god, I can't express my happiness for a video of this length. Danooct1, you are one of the few TH-camrs I always need to check on to see if they've made a new video.
can i have a copy of that DRAIN file? i wanna have it in my collection well can i have all of those :O drain birds bugs and the DOD one and willtell i wanna have em on my computer
The drain program is a classic. It's not even a virus or anything harmful at all, just a silly joke program, but for some reason modern virus checkers STILL have it on the list of patterns they scan for.
The Department of Defense one scared me a little, even though it was probably fake. I just don't want to know what would happen to your computer if you did manage to hack into there
Fun fact: That 'comm' is more commonly know as a BAS script known as 'The Gag', it seems your version has the last message changed to remove the credits.

Amber was a reasonably common third choice, and one that later colour multisync monitors would even let you choose as a tint for monochrome input.

The Comm virus was also a real DOS joke program called TheGag

What would have been really funny is if techno finished filling the screen then the low health tone from Pokemon played
