This binary requires you to use the flag --desu-Desu-dEsu-deSu-desU-DESU and only if you're very sure of it DESU.

I'm considering this new CVS flag as the most weird ever (apart from being the most difficult to type) and now I'm really courious, how someone could invent something like this and what it means.

Has this something in common with the Japanese 'Watashi-wa xxx-desu'-desu?  Do programmers sniff glue? What's the sense of life?

I'm really looking forward onto receiving a honest answer.

Kind regards

^^ copy and paste ftw

That's what I did, but I typed the --only-chuck-norris-would-stop-me in the 'Run application'-dialog and I guess now I won't be able to start amule this way...because it takes more time than opening a terminal, executing amule once and finally copying the parameter and start amule.

And developers are evil.

Yeah, it's all about the japanese "desu". Actually, its a pun on 4chantards/btards  (people obsessed with 4chan's /b/ and its memes). I happen to also be a compulsive webcomic reader, and Dan Kim happens to be a 4chantard. Worlds collide on Dan's "tomoyo42's room" 178/179:

In 4chan, everyone started using DESU at every point in the sentences, and adding tons of "DESU" in their posts. It became (as everything does in /b/) really tiring with time.

And the fact I used that weird capitalization (Desu-dEsu-deSu-desU-DESU) is because I'm an evil bastard. Yup, I am. I like to make your life harder and harder. People started using scripts and stuff to avoid the chuck norris flag, and I couldn't stop myself from being evil again.

Nah, that's the MEANING.

Desu flag sucks, Chuck Norris flag ruled.
