[Off topic] six degrees of separation

Ben Coman
Idle trivia...
I still like to get my daily hit of Slashdot, which linked an article
by an author I like...
   http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/things-every-hacker-once-knew/

There I read an interesting teaser...
   On one widely deployed variety [of cellular modem] "AT+QLINUXCMD="
is a prefix
   that passes commands to an instance of Linux running in firmware on
the chip itself.

So I just have to goog that...
   AT QLINUXCMD 3G
and the top link is...
   http://git.gnumonks.org/laforge-slides/plain/2016/cellular_modems_33c3/33c3-modems.html
hey there Holger!!  Cool stuff.
I really should take a peek at your Pharo cell phone libraries sometime.

cheers -ben
