Code witch turning coffee into software
Watching a video where someone is playing the original DOS Rogue from like 85. He's going over the controls, and F10 is the "Supervisor Key"
It displays a fake DOS prompt on the screen you can fart around in and pretend to be doing work in, in case you're playing the game at work
That is so extremely funny.
There's so many old "boss keys" in old games, I always love seeing what people picked. One Lucasarts game has a sales spreadsheet for their own games, and a Japanese game I played has a Mac TextEdit screen with the game's own script.
The "boss key" is a hilarious idea that seems implausible to have ever really worked, though I was far too young to be in the office in those days, but I remember a bunch of DOS games having them.
I always knew these under the term "panic button" as most flash games would call them, but still a great thing I love coming across from time to time. I always wonder if they ever worked that well. My go-to was always rushing to hit alt+f4
