The UnIncredible Bug####, written in ASIC/BASIC only lasted a couple
of years on 'free" sites. The DuckJerk was under the illusion he would
be charging for it soon. He thought it would be his entree to a REAL
life, instead of living in a '20's stucco cottage in the backwoods of
#### Hole, Tennessee.
Wikipedia says:
ASIC is a programming language, a BASIC dialect and
shareware compiler for DOS systems. Written by Dave Visti of
80/20 Software, it achieved brief popularity in the 1990s as
one of the few BASIC compilers legally available for
download from BBSes. However, ASIC understood only a small
subset of the BASIC language, with most versions having
little or no support for logical operators, control
structures, and floating-point arithmetic. These
shortcomings are the reason for the software's tongue-in-
cheek motto, "ASIC: It's almost BASIC!"
Notably, however, ASIC did feature a rudimentary integrated
development environment and an RS-232 communications library
for writing terminal and BBS software. The last release of
ASIC, version 5.00, was more compatible with GW-BASIC and
offered a utility to convert GW-BASIC programs to ASIC
syntax.
ASIC allows compiling to a DOS EXE file or COM file. The low
overhead of the COM file format lets ASIC make one of the
smallest compiled executables of the Hello world program,
typically 360 bytes.

In other words, it's used for amateur hackers who haven't graduated
with the rest of the world past the world of BBS and Lynx. Those who
think telnet the epitome of computer expertise.
Welcome to the world of DuckFart, The ASIC Boy of Wonder!
Here is where The DelusionalDuck gets handed his ass by a real IT guy.
This post points to the reason why Dumbstin The UnMagnificient stays
in non tech groups formed of wannabe comp experts instead of groups
where the real experts hang out.

An IT guy's assessment of Raid aka Dustin Cook's Bug####:
"Now tell me you used those madd skillz to get a design credit on Lotus
1- 2-3 for the TRS-80 Model II, or on the Zork series, or something,
and maybe I'll be impressed, Duhs. For right now, all I see is the
same pile of worthless CompSci assignments that are sitting on every
other geek's hard drive, except most of them have enough decency to
not actually try to market it as software."
The following post is extremely interesting.

Punchlines:
Dumbstin handily points out that my not ####, which I assume was supposed
to mean I'm not ####.
This is close to an autoflame, since the question he was answering was
'why are you a broke-ass bragging about MS-DOS apps on a newsgroup if
you're so great? I'm a friggin IT executive and my skills put me just a
hair past glorified script kiddie with root. What's your excuse?'
His excuse apparently is I'm not ####...and he can't measure up to even
that.
Equally gigglicious: his posting of scads and scads of low-threat,
unpropagated viruses and decades-old DOS utilities as evidence of his
skills...when the question was what relevance these alleged skills have
in *today's* market.
Triple-chuck: Continually claims he's 'safe' because the 'statute of
limitations has run out.' Of course, in many states the intentional
propagation of malware is a felony...and in at least two of those states,
Virginia and North Carolina, there is no statute of limitations on
felonies.
SO, as of this moment the situation is this:
EITHER: All of Duh-stin's nattering is just more foam
or
I just HLS'd him into admitting to a prosecutable felony on a publicly-
accessible network.
Probably a good thing for him all his viruses were useless crap, so
nobody will care.
Now tell me you used those madd skillz to get a design credit on Lotus 1-
2-3 for the TRS-80 Model II, or on the Zork series, or something, and
maybe I'll be impressed, Duhs. For right now, all I see is the same pile
of worthless CompSci assignments that are sitting on every other geek's
hard drive, except most of them have enough decency to not actually try
to market it as software.
