Bold of you to assume they even thought about it

No they didn't, this is just a CVS receipt.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Are you sure? It doesn't look long enough to be a CVS receipt.

What you can't see is that's only about 6% printed

usually i think it's cringe when people shit on the linguistics of memes, but this is the most non-pov "pov" post i've ever seen. the meaning would be the EXACT same if they just hadn't included the dumbass "pov:" part. fucking spotify marketing intern ass buzzword

While I agree with you, this is literally their point of view while this is happening

Oh this reminds me when people discovered all the printers at school were available on the WiFi

[–] [email protected] 53 points 10 months ago (2 children)

That's incredible.

Then again, school IT jobs are often given to "my nephew who is good with computers", because the pay is often half compared to the private sector.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 10 months ago (1 children)

One teacher told us that once an IT technician at our school built the network, connecting 2 school institutions with ~7 buildings using only hubs. That network was apparently almost unusably slow, which isn't surprising.

I have a friend that does IT/networking for a school district and he makes bank, YMMV.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

My brother works for a school with 200 kids PreK-12. He's a teacher, but he also does IT. He gets a $500/yr stipend, and he calls me at least twice a week with basic questions that are solved 95% of the time by rebooting the computer.

I've told him a number of times the district owes me that stipend lol

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

$500 a year?!? Hey buddy, thanks for looking after our IT systems, here's an extra $1.50 a week ...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

That's ridiculous!

I'm surprised it's not a student ran IT Club that the kids have a pay a materials fee for...

[–] [email protected] 21 points 10 months ago

And not just printers. There may or may not also be a few Wi-Fi APs with login details admin:admin. And there also may or may not be many computers with RDP enabled without password. And those that have some password may or may not re-use the same short password for Administrator account. There also may or may not be SMTP server, though unfortunately in my case it doesn't allow using it so send e-mails outside the network. It returns "Relay access denied" error.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago

If it makes you feel any better, before the days of ubiquitous wi-fi, printers on wired networks in my school were about as easy to discover and use from a distance. FTPing a text file to one would start a print job for that file and it would be trivial to mash together that information plus a list of printer addresses for the entire district network (courtesy of nmap).

This information was certainly never put to use.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago (3 children)

My school had a level of security on their printers..........and also a shitload of hackers. Like, the IT department was reporting vulnerabilities discovered by the students to Apple amount of hackers.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

My high school had a level of security too. The same password on every work computer in the school.

Amazingly, I never resorted to changing grades. However logging into the admin account to play games instead of the 1,358th typing class was definitely on the menu.

my brain is churning through char limits... i just cant believe it would be large enough through multiple systems..but then, i dont know the char count of the script, compression techniques used, encapsulation etc.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 10 months ago (3 children)

It can just fetch the information one line at a time like a printing machine. I don't think the receipt machine has that much memory to hold everything

I would be a little afraid of eating my order after that.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

It depends, if the employer doesn't treat his staff well, they'd give you extra portion.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I do hope when someone reads about a Christian Nationalism lawsuit going on they don't find out what law office is representing the guy who wants to hurt gay people. Then find the fax number on their site, go get a temp email at all the free sites that provide it, go to a send fax over the Internet site, and send them long faxes.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 10 months ago (2 children)

An old trick you could do on old physical fax machines was to tape a couple of sheets of black construction paper together, feed them into the machine and tape them into a loop. Dial your special person and burn through all their toner. Of course, now it would just generate a bunch of emails.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago

Black fax - such an effective remote physical attack that fax companies had to actually hard-code a defence against it, to not print pages where there would be enough ink or toner dispensed that it could damage the machine or be a fire hazard

I...never thought of this, thank you for the idea.

What kind of idiot doesn't check for the Shreck script when validating input? Bunch of amateurs.

Yooo this reminds me, I think there was an ~~AITA~~ comment on reddit some time ago about a guy who burned down a Pizza place due to putting the entire bee movie script in a message box.

Edit: I believe it was a comment on an Askreddit thread, but a quick google search appears to not be enough to find it

Edit 2: I think it's this one, no clue if it actually happened though https://www.reddit.com/r/tifu/comments/bjttfe/tifu_by_ordering_food_online_amd_essentially/

Ok my copier story. We had a copier room in my high school with a little window in the door. I put a black sheet of paper on it, set it to copy 999 times, locked the door from the inside, then walked away. Turns out no one knows where the key was to the little copier room. I got caught and was punished. The end.

Why do most of the comments in this thread match exactly with the comments in the linked reddit thread?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

We're not really that unique. We're not consciously or likely even unconsciously referencing that thread or others like it. We're just coming to the same witty conclusions those before us did.

Even your comment comes up every time there's a similar thread or experience. Mine too.

Happy New Year, btw.

It's bots all the way down.

Set a character limit. Easy. A maximum reasonable length considering the attention span and efficiency of an employee to grasp such information if required should do the job

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

My God, it's shrexcellent.

Seriously, though, it's 2023 and big corporates are still out here with no input validation?
