One Ring Rules the MIT Dome

Posted by Hemos on from the awesome dept.

Patiwat Panurach writes "The Great Dome of MIT was overtaken on the morning of Monday the 17th by a great golden ring, inscribed in red Elvish with text that translates to: "One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them." The hackers were apparently not completely successful, for neither the Great Dome nor Building 10 managed to vanish into the realm of shadows."

  1. Those are not pranks by DiveX · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Destruction of public property, impeding the flow of traffic, forgery, and the theft of a rug would not be considered pranks. There is nothing subversive nor ironic about any of those things. It sounds more like high school kids in a hick town behaving as drunks. Realy pranks have a value of humor or irony to them and cause no harm nor damage.
