MIT's Bathroom Server

An Anonymous Coward writes: "Some of the undergrads wired Random Hall's (an undergraduate dorm) bathroom system up to the net so that you can visit http://bathroom.mit.edu and see which stalls on which floors are vacant, and if they're in use, how long whoever's been in there. It's a pretty good idea-- you can scout your stall from your dorm room, and watch it to make sure nobody's taken a s$#% there recently."

    as about 15... interested in shitter monitoring.

    I've suspected Slashdot management and staff were very immature and trying to seem much more sophisticated than they really were, but I never expected to see such incontrovertable proof as this story. This is a new low for Slashdot - linking toilet sites. What's next, upskirt cams? Do grow up.

    Even a slow news Saturday night doesn't deserve posting this. Not that it's offensive (though some might think so), but it's simply too banal. Who's manning the controls, someone's 9 year old kid? You might just as well rebrand Slashdot as "News for Adolescents. Stuff that Sucks." This sucks.

    And how exactly would the people looking at a webpage know it's YOU? All they know is SOMEONE is in the bathroom stall #1.

    I just heard some sad news on TV, apparently Slashdot website creator, Rob "CmdrTaco" Malda, was rushed to the hospital this afternoon after having his penis sliced off. Authorities say the accident involved Rob's penis, his computer, and an illegal computer device imported from China that was designed to stimulate the penis during cyber-sex. The authorities aren't releasing many details yet as to how it happened, but they suspect that the device malfunctioned which caused his penis to be sliced off. However, there is speculation among the Slashdot community that the Open Source Operating System "Linux" is to blame, for its faulty structure and lack of professional development. There is no word of whether there was any foul-play involved from hackers amongst the Linux community.
