Now you know:
The 'completely ridiculous graphical nonsense OS Hollywood tech bullshit' from Jurassic Park that everyone makes fun of when the girl says 'It's a UNIX system, I know this...' and proceeds to holywood-hack her way into Jurassic park's security systems actually IS a UNIX based system and she wasn't lying.
It's called fsv:

>http://fsv.sourceforge.net/
>fsv was partly inspired by fsn, the experimental 3D File System Navigator developed some time ago by Silicon Graphics. This program figured prominently in a scene from Steven Spielburg's hit film, Jurassic Park.
You are a stupid person anon
>>52482866
SORRY: the original is fsn, fsv is for GANOO/LOONUX.
How am I stupid? I just linked the wrong one, the ORIGINAL is:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fsn
https://web.archive.org/web/20070409024417/http://www.sgi.com/fun/freeware/3d_navigator.html
Whereas the one I linked was for made for Linux.
>>52482912
Wait what
>>52482912
If you are implying it was made up for Jurassic Park then you are wrong.
>>52482939
He's right but I fixed my post, the original is fsn, as posted here:

>>52482935
Thank you anon, you are a smart man
C'mon, this is a pretty good fun fact. I'm sure a lot of people on /g/ have made fun of that scene before without know this.

Listen dumb fuck, I am a sysadmin, I work primarily with linux and windows but there are a few unix systems that I support (AIX, HPUX, Solaris).
Just because you know how the OS works doesn't mean you know how to operate the security system on that OS.

I haven't seen JP in awhile, but weren't they already physically in the facility? So she wouldn't have needed to hack anything, just know how to use it.
>>52484915
Yeah she was at the console. Problem is who taught her that security software?
>>52484873
When did I ever claim that? The point is that the 'ridiculous 3d graphical interface' is real, not that she would actually be able to do the things she did with it.
>needing to use a GUI for a Unix system
Fucking girl sysadmins
>>52484936
The reason that scene is ridiculed is because she just started using the fucking security software.
>>52484965
Randomly checking the menus and clicking what sounds useful isn't really "using".
That's basically all I do when troubleshooting a software I don't know in detail.
How funny, I was thinking about this scene either last night or earlier today.
This kind of thing happens almost every day. How cool.
How fucking slow are you?
Who the fuck didn't know this shit?
Next you'll be telling us the Matrix used nmap.
That makes it even worse. Someone actually made that stupid pos.
>You live in a bad future where people don't own SGI workstations in their home and navigate their file systems in 3D virtual reality
Feels bad man
>>52482866
I'm totally gonna try to install and run this shit. I never knew there was a real version of this.
>>52485198
I need to put this on my old ass toughbook and browse it in public.
I think that quote whenever I have to delve into my file system. It haunts me.
>>52484965
I don't know if that's the main reason or not, but it certainly gets lumped in with the Hackers/Swordfish/etc. 'graphical hacking' criticism and that's what I was referring too.
Well shit.
Let's see if I can compile this 15 year old code in OSX.
>>52485356
I could compile it, but I don't want to install gtk+ and gtkglarea
>>52485408
>but I don't want to install gtk
Took the words from my mouth.
Fuck getting gtk linked, I'll see if any package managers have it.
>>52482854
old news, op.
we know all about irix & how awesome it was
>>52485441
it looks like homebrew actually has a formula for fsv (and all its deps), but it's in the boneyard so it probably doesn't build anymore
>>52485464
Macports seems to have it.
Taking ages to install though.
better imo.
>>52485462
Sun was doing some cool shit with Solaris too.

too bad it was cut down, w/ the advent of oracle
