Possible hints never used

2012

P.S. from the end message of 2012

At the end of the message vjuNp.jpg was this string:

P.S. 1041279065891998535982789873959431895640\
442510695567564373922695237268242385295908173\
9834390370374475764863415203423499357108713631

The P.S. string rotated 90 degrees contains "3301" (or 1033 depending on rotate direction). This may be a hint that the 3 line should be interpreted as a matrix.

missing primes on telnet

Telnetting "primes" shell prints out list of primes similar to one on CICADA OS, but some primes are missing and two have extra space in front of them and primes are missing between 71 and 1229.
