http://www.engadget.com/2015/12/18/log-into-most-any-linux-system-by-hitting-backspace-28-times/


i discovered the number 28
works on other systems too!

for example on twitter
when you get the
message you used up
following limit...
you hit 28
and you bypass the limit!

28 is a symmetric number:

28 =  2 * (1 + 2.5 + 2.5 + 1) * 2


28 in base 9 is only 26 in dec.

28 is the IQ of some famous people

The number 28 is also six digits less than what is required for rule
34 to apply.

28 is
   11100 in binary
   34 in octal
   1c in hex
   FS  in ASCII
   M in baudot5
   1  base 28

It is a composite number, its proper divisors being 1, 2, 4, 7, and 14.

Twenty-eight is the second perfect number. As a perfect number, it is 
related to the Mersenne prime 7, since 2(3 − 1)(23 − 1) = 28. The next 
perfect number is 496, the previous being 6.

Twenty-eight is the third Granville number. The next Granville number is 
96, the previous being 24.


     An abbreviation for such years as 1928 and 2028.

     There are 28 countries in the European Union (June 2015). This 
number was reached in July 2013 when Croatia joined.

     In Hebrew Gematria, koakh meaning "power", "energy" is a word that 
corresponds to the number 28.

     In English Gematria, Eden=E5+D4+E5+N14, man=M13+A1+N14.

     The number of Hebrew letters in Genesis 1:1, the first verse of the

     The number of days in the shortest month of the Gregorian calendar, 
February (except in leap years, when there are twenty-nine). All twelve 
months of the Gregorian calendar have at least 28 days, regardless of 
the year.

     The Gregorian calendar follows a 28-year cycle for the most part, 
since there are seven days in a week and leap year generally occurs 
every four years; usually, a calendar from any year is the same as that 
from 28 years earlier (e.g., 2008 and 1980 or 2009 and 2037). However, 
that rule holds only when there have been exactly seven leap days in a 
28-year interval; years divisible by 100 but not by 400 are not leap 
years. Indeed, 1900 (as well as 2100, 2200, etc.) does not use the same 
calendar as 1872 (2072, 2172, etc., respectively) for the simple reason 
that 1900 is not a leap year. In 28 years, any day-of-the-week and date 
combination occurs exactly four times. February 29 will fall on each day 
of the week once.

     In Jewish tradition there is a 28-year solar cycle in which the sun 
returns to its place in Creation every 28 solar years. This is 
commemorated in April every 28 years with the recitation of Birkat 
Hachama, the blessing of the sun.

     The number of letters in the Danish and Swedish alphabets (not 
counting W), and also in the Arabic and Esperanto alphabets.

     In neo-Nazi circles, twenty-eight indicates Blood and Honour (28 = 
BH - B - second letter of the alphabet and H - the eight letter).

     The number of Chinese constellations, "Xiu" or "mansions" (a 
literal translation), equivalent to the 12 western zodiac constellations.

     The number of dominoes in standard domino sets.

     Deriving from the 29.46 year period of Saturn's revolution around 
the Sun, the 28-year cycle as well as its subdivisions by 14 and 7 are 
supposed in Astrology to mark significant turning points or sections in 
the course of a persons development in life. Thus, the number 28 has 
special significance in the culture of religious sects such as the 
Kadiri and the Mevlevi dervishes. The 28-beat metric pattern often used 
in the music compositions accompanying the main part of the Mevlevi sema 
ritual is called the "Devri kebir", meaning the "Big Circle" and is a 
reference to above astronomical facts about the year and the Saturn year.

     In Quebec, François Pérusse, in one of his best-selling Album du 
peuple made a parody of Wheel of Fortune in which all of the letters 
picked by the contestant were present 28 times. As a result, 28 became 
an almost Mythical number used by many Quebec youths, the phrase "Y'en a 
28" (There are 28 [Letters]) became a running gag still used and 
recognized more than 15 years later.

Could it be that the ping-pong balls they use to pick lotto numbers are
being affected?  The ball with "50" would weigh wore than the # "1" ball,
right? (paint)

I guess 88 (if it existed in the lotto) would be the most heavy ball.


If that's true then its not a completely "random" pick.

Yes, 28 IS one of "magic numbers", in context of nuclear physics. :-)

Quote:
In nuclear physics, a magic number is a number of nucleons (either
protons or neutrons) such that they are arranged into complete shells
within the atomic nucleus. The seven most widely recognized magic
numbers as of 2007 are 2, 8, 20, 28, 50, 82, and 126.

well there is a 2, in 28

then you have  2, 8, 

which is 28

then 20,


which is 2, 8, 20 = a 28

then you have 28,


skip 50 (i don't know how it got in there, must  be some mistake)

then you have 126, 6 +2 is 8 that's 1 28


it must be magic.


Do they have backspace on ATM machines? I'll wait to the 28th to try it!

Yes, your mistake. It is not numerology.
