Yes, yes i can. All of my vehicles were built before the government mandated nanny system explosion, so my brakes are tied directly to driver input, not some resistor and relay switch.

my 'real' enterprise uses LEAP based authentication with a hidden SSID, the leap login is based on your AD username and password, and it ties directly into the local network without VPN. so, clearly, while this is an exceptionally shitty method of doing things, 'real' enterprises do stupid shit, though in one instance we have here at least, there isn't a better way, or, not much of a better way. I'd go WPA, but it's not my call, and not my network, i just fix it when it breaks.

Windows/AD based networks are just as legitimate as any other, the System administrators are just as legitimate as any other, and as soon as you put aside your arrogance, you'll realize that most businesses run windows on their office machines, and AD to manage logins. That said, my place of employment is an international corporation, so, we qualify as Real Enterprise, and the switches have no down-ports, so the 'walk in, plug in, profit' method would work just fine. i'm not in charge of the network, so it's not my problem, but i still recognize the potential flaws in the system.

my mother was a potato cannon you insensitive clod!

Sorry, my bad A-12.

That wasn't an SR-71, it's a YF-12. Yes, there *is* a difference.

i don't know about you, but my car didn't come with a contract.

This. I had a demo once, expired after one hour, but i spend most of that hour looking at settings to get it to work correctly, and never had an actual chance to PLAY the demo. so i deleted it, re installed it. It was still expired, hidden reg key that i never did find.

Well, since this is an educational institution, wouldn't it be the eMargin?

It had been said that some day the servers might go offline and strand everybody who purchased the games legally. Little did i know it would be less than a month.

oh absolutely, the 2d scanners we use are about 400 dollars a pop.

you're assuming all barcode scanners use a wedge method and output the data as keystrokes instead of raw data on a com port. protip: usually, and especially in this case, you'd have it as raw data on a com port, thus, not capturable with "any keylogger"

theft by deception

This. Where i work he have several dozen 2D barcode scanners and even more Zebra Z4 and Z6 type printers. on a ZM400 we had a bad head, and a good deal of the barcode was completely absent from the word go, however operators were still able to correctly scan the mangled codes with 100% accuracy.

That's all well and good you see, but it was the competition with the US that drove them to do those things, it was called the "space race" for a reason.
