My name comes from Copacetic, one of my favorite words, and from Opus of Bloom County. I'm most interested in comedy, technology, and language.
I don't know User:GrowlyGenet but I found that person's user page to be a very helpful template. Thanks, random person!
[edit] Pages I Have Edited
Umph - This product didn't have an existing page, so I created one. I wish I didn't need to use caffeine, but due to my insomnia it is inevitable. Umph is my preferred caffeine delivery mechanism when I am feeling very tired at work.
Penguin Mints - I added a summary of the caffeine content (and other active ingredients) in their products.
[edit] Deleted Article: List of films in which an attempt is made to guess a password
This is a very common movie convention which I felt was worth tracking. Unfortunately, others did not agree! Some people thought it worthwhile, some people didn't, and it got deleted without my knowledge that it was even under debate. I was able to recover a version of the list using Google. Gee, thanks, everyone, that really makes me feel excited about contributing.
[edit] Article Content
Making an attempt to guess a password is a movie cliché. In modern movies, the attempt is typically made at a computer terminal by a heroic character under pressure to access a system or uncover a critical piece of information. However, password guessing scenes predate the computer and can take many forms.
In most cases, the character succeeds in three guesses or fewer. This is only possible because a weak password was chosen. Still, the ease with which the character guesses the password is often criticized as being unrealistic.
Movies featuring an attempt to guess a password include:
- Horse Feathers (1932)
- WarGames (1983)
- Fortress (1993)
- Jurassic Park (1993)
- The Net (1995)
- GoldenEye (1995)
- Independence Day (1996)
- Batman & Robin (1997)
- Swordfish (2001)
- Klatretøsen (2002)
- National Treasure (2004)
- Superman Returns (2006)
