The Deer Hacker Files

You Have Entered The Matrix...

This is the home of the temple's deer hacker. A place where to store some of the content and mood from the now nostalgic era of 2010s script kidding scene. Having lived in that scene I feel the duty of preserving some of the most interesting and dumb elements of this lost era of the internet, which has now become so boring and lame. I miss those days where I used to install tons of malware on my first laptop just from googling best hacking tools and downloding everything without any security concerns. No wonder that cimputer only lasted 11 months. Also I'm just writing whatever here because I like this aesthetic, fuck it.

The Matrix

When I say matrix I do not mean the awesome movie from 1999, but the REAL matrix, that thin astral layer of energy that keeps us connected with the cosmic deer. This is what deer use to communicate with their gods, we can sense it too but because it was never meant to be used by humans we need to literally hack the matrix, gaining temporary access to it to catch a tiny glimpse of the glory and beauty of the cosmic deer.

What you are about to witness is unprecedented, I will show you the few incrredible pictures I was able to take during my journeys in the deep ocean of the matrix, where I was able to spot, albeit only briefly, the legendary cosmic deer.

First Contact

Running into this stunning creature will always be one of the most memorable moments in my life: I was completely new to the matrix and I just expected it to give me a very tiny mental linki to the deer gods, but with enough focus, after a few minutes everything in my vision started going blurry, so very blurry, as I watched everything around me melt away: my senses were being overwhelmed, or maybe even hijacked, by the sheer power of the gods I was approaching.

A low, constant hum started echoing from somewhere so far away, it almost felt like an instrument, its notes would change every now and then, but its sounds did not resemble a proper melody, they felt unnatural and guttural, like those sounds were coming from the belly of a massive creature I could not even see.

As the sound became louder I started shaking uncontrollably, I never felt colder in my life. The melting items around me had now completely disappeared: reality shattered as the room I was in disappeared and gigantic strings of green symbols started flowing all around me, and even through me. I had never seen any symbols like these before, their number and variety so immense to give me a strong headache just from trying to observe them closely, while they surrounded and transported me in the middle of this dimension of pure blackness.

The sound was now defeaning, and it is then that I saw it: a deer-shaped figure slowly took shape from some of the symbols, who close in together to form the outline of what looked like a whitetail, but distorted by the ocean of green symbols that were still filling my vision. It was staring at me.

Impassible, unmovable, yet I was shivering like never before as my brain stood in awe. In front of it I felt so infinitely tiny and afraid, but the creature did not intend to harm me or even communicate with me in any way. I was an intruder in their world, but one so weak and inconsequential that doing anything about it would have been a waste of time and energies.

The longer I stared back at the pitch black eyes of the deer the dizzier I felt, my ears unable to hear anything but that sound, now so close, so terrifying as I was being exposed to sounds the human brain was never designed or meant to be exposed to. It then became unbearable, and without a warning I blacked out.

When I woke up I looked at the clock, it had only been about 30 seconds since I last looked at the clock before this whole thing even started... it's as if time stopped while I was there. I had done it, I couldn't believe it myself, but I witnessed a cosmic deer, and it looked back into my eyes. My mission to spread the word is now more powerful than ever, and perhaps this is why I was allowed to see that creature at all.

Second Contact

Hacking Memories

Enough "serious" religion talk. This is about bits and pieces of things I remember and miss from my days as a script kiddie, in 2010. Back then I had just recently learned from my family about the existence of hackers: they told me there are people capable of getting on other people's computers without authorization, and I remember asking, "can they even recover files deleted from the recycle bin?" my parents chuckled, and said, "yes!". That was the beginning of my hacking journey.
