  • A real poem of human communication in modern times

    From Brother Rabbit@2:460/58 to August Abolins on Fri Nov 13 20:29:12 2020
    Who knows. Techically it is from the dark reclusive servers in Dubia, reaching out to a modest sysop's pc in Crimea where it is then pre-processed into the language that FTN speaks, and then teleporting through the mystical ether of electrons over land, sea or space to its final destination - your pc. :)

    A real poem of human communication in modern times. ;)

    Strictly speaking, isn't it actually written in that Northern suburb of Texas known as Canada, via servers in Dubai, delivered to Crimea, then distributed globally?
