SHACKS

I'm thinking of founding a club/association. It will be callled SHACKS.

SHACKS stands for Singapore Hackers' Association for Computing Knowledge: SHACKS.

Now, this SHACKS at the end stands for something else. It stands for Singapore Hackers' Association for Cultural Knowledge: SHACKS.

Now, this SHACKS at the end stands for something else. It stands for Suzumiya Haruhi's Association for Contemporary Kids: SHACKS.

Now, this SHACKS at the end stands for something else. It stands for Singapore Hackers' Association for Computing Knowledge: SHACKS.

Now, SHACKS has goals.

1. To accumulate a library of literary classics, cultural tomes, papers and textbooks. No droll and boring stuff allowed. Computer manuals have a priority.
   
2. To fund laptops for all the members. Members must strictly use Linux, preferably Debian. Excessive use of Windows will not be tolerated. People who evangalize Windows will be banned. Minor usage of Windows for gaming purposes is acceptable, but chronic gamers will be expelled. Homebrew gaming is encouraged. Commercial games are to be hated. Games with interesting and innovative marketing strategies like Guild Wars are an exception.
   
3. To have a community where members discuss and give each other presentations on topics relevant to the contemporary hacker. Namely, Intellectual Property, Self-organization & Self-teaching, Programming, Computer Science, Applicatons of Computer Science, Linguistics, Languages, and the History of Cultures. Once again, presentations about Droll and Boring are banned.
4. To encourage people to stop debating endlessly on the ethics of helping people and Just Fucking Contribute.
5. To have a pyramid model of proselytizers to conquer the world for SHACKS.
