He's probably the other one who saw idiocracy too

When I moved into programming, I was allowed into the datacenter after 5PM after bosses and coworkers were no longer around to complain and could submit my own decks and retreive my own reports. Two finger keypunching the code revisions was also de rigeur. I sure miss the steel forms ruler I was given after helping out after hours one night. Thankfully I still have my Green card (it is yellow) carefully re-inforeced with scotch tape (this was before duct tape became wildly popular amongst the geek set). Eye reading assembly from SOC7 hex dumps, good times, good times. Also used PANVALET on 3270 terminals to code and had to enter changes from the bottom up or the system would get confused about line numbers after an insert/delete and did horrible things to the cardfile. Still make changes bottom up to this day, once bitten twice shy.

FTFY

you left out inverting the power feed to the deflector dish

So a "true" impersonation of a public official would be allowed? Does it require poorly applied makup, a badly tailored suit and accepting bribes from local busnessmen?

I imagine the "site" would be a bar, jawboning with his buddies.

Sam Adams aint a particularly bad beer, certainly nor one deserving of a scathing article. Now if you want to bad mouth Pabst Blue Ribbon ...

Is that a GM (gentoo modified) hard kernel?

Anybody with physical access to a machine, essentially has absolute power over it. and how many employees can resist thesdirens call of dancing bunnies and weatherbug?

I dont think there is much R&D done at the infernal Revenue. Isolate the XP machines to a quarrantine VLAN and lock the switch port to the MAC address. Not that I think that an IT staff that dug this hole is competent to ameliorate the consequences. I doubt they can even SPELL Network Access Control let alone deploy it.

Seems only fair given how they treat the average citizen (i,e. non-politicians, non-moguls)

adblock plus custom entry "http://slashdot.org/*.mp3*"

So THAT'S where the horrible smell is coming from, I shuda paid more attention to the cheeto crumbs in the tire treads.
