I have a slackware box at home that I use as a sandbox for my dev work in php.

I normally use winscp to log into it remotely via sftp and change the default text editor to notepad++

That way, when I save in notepad++, winscp automatically reuploads the code i'm working on and I can render the webpage immediately

Keep Wifi wide open (but obviously lock down the administration interface)
Set a DHCP range of say, 100 - 150
Set static IP's for all your known devices via mac address outside that range
ARP Poison the 100-150 range
Profit???

As a social engineer, I like to have fun. Oh what's that? google.com is resolving to kittenwar.com? Oh, yahoo is too? HEAVENS TO MERGATROID! WHY IS EVERY IMAGE ON THIS PAGE BEING SHOWN AS TUBGIRL? I THINK I'M GONNA VOM!

But I digress. It's THEIR OWN fault if they connect to my wireless network without asking me first.

As a side note, I love it when the "hobbyist" computer know-it-alls when they tell me they have a wep or wpa protected network and no one is getting in. The dejected look when I gain access to their network is more delicious than the soul of a baby seal...

...and say "You're just holding it wrong!"

Don't you mean Decepticons?

Well played my good friend, well played...

Does this mean I'm going to get down modded because it won't apply to 70% of /.ers?

Who needs a tractor beam when you have a wife to do this?

...replace them with stickers of my own, so no worry about the crud.

On a related note, I affixed a bumper sticker to the back of my laptop once that read "Silence is golden, but duct tape is silver". Good "people repellant" when you're trying to enjoy yourself at the local coffee shop...

THE CAKE IS NOT A LIE!!! Maybe they'll unveil portal 2

*Disclaimer* I own an iPhone but am in no way a fanboy, nor am I bashing raven's opinion. I am simply looking to play devils advocate

Dumb policies and products have been apart of apple's legacy. Several times apple has almost tanked completely. Remember the Lisa? What's saved the company from going under time and time again has been their ability to step back from the situation, admit fault or miscalculation, and try their best to fix it.

Sometimes common sense isn't so common and while you and I both agree, yeah that's a stupid policy, someone within the company may not have anticipated such an outcry. Fortunately they were able to look at the situation with clearer eyes and rectify it the best they could

and judging by your signature, are you saying Ballmer would get convicted if charges came against him?

BAM! just turned it into a Microsoft Bashing thread!
