   35. Dial a pirate

   Today we talk about the pirates! Not the Errol Flynn type, but rather the community of Warez Doodz and crackers are under scrutiny here. DJ Daemon delves into this from a Swedish perspective.I know I may seem negative to the warez community, but that's mostly the warez BBSes which used to have a mentality of superiority that struck me as rather unappealing. I'm kinda amazed by the tecnhological prowess of the cracker groups. But personally I walked away from downloading piracy copied games when I got my modem, as I didn't like the community. For me the demo scene and the normal BBS:es was the thing I loved and respected. When I got a steady salary, buying software was the way I eventually went. Sure, I used Napster as well. But that for a later show, I guess.

   27. A pox on all your Amigas

   Viruses are no fun, but we have had to contend with them since the 70s. The Amiga had its share of them like SCA, Bytebandit, Saddam Hussein, Lamer exterminator and some others. Some just wrote cute messages, whereas others deliberately or by mistake destroyed your data. Let DJ Daemon take you back to the 80s and guide you through the less popular parts of Amiga history.

   19. Battle of the nerds

   Nerds and geeks are peaceful right? Nope! We battle as much as anyone else, but seldom in a fisticuffs fight. You know, it's all about words and feeling superior because we have an HP 48 calculator, an Amiga instead of an Atari or because our favorite demo group just won in the great demo party. DJ Daemon dives into why we need to form groups or “cliques” where we feel elevated and enlighted as opposed of those other “troglodytes” of the competition.
