Slashdot Mirror
Browse All You Want At Work

Congrats! Now Mozilla will be on that hot list of stuff not able to download and use at the office!
GOOD THINKING!
Good quote, too many chars. Seriously, the slashdot 120 char limit sucks!
where can I hide my Cheryl Tiegs poster?
Until some idiot accidently embeds the wrong figure within his PowerPoint presentation.
At the board meeting:
"As you can see in this full-page figure..."
"Well, something about that figure is certainly full..."
as I sit here at work on a Friday afternoon reading slashdot.
Speaking of simple mouse gestures, the site has been slashdotted by a simple click! :)
But what if your hands aren't on your mouse?
I don't have a sig...Do you??
Wah!
Leaving that on a shared laptop, your boss is giving a presentation for a room of investors and with one deft flick of the wrist.. goatse.cx pops up.
That would rock.
Trolling is a art,
if your sysadmins don't check the proxy logs

There is a distinct difference in a sysadmin who checks the log and rats you out, and a sysadmin who checks the log and gives you a few tips on a really good asian schoolgirl site.
its the wang in my hand I wish was easier to hide!

Of course not, only Windows-lamers look at pr0n. Open source granola crunchers can get laid for real.

Include a custom peripheral, like Steel Battalion does.
This peripheral would convert any office chair into an ejection seat, for those times when you absolutely positively cannot get out of admitting you were surfing the web, instead of working.

Wow, this is great! That's because the office is, of course, the best place in the world to oggle porn. Yeah.
So now instead of seeing the embarrassing sites you're visiting, your boss will only notice more frequent hand...er...mouse gestures.
It's all going according to
Slashdotted already? Guess that says something about how popular (and necessary!) this is for slashdot readers!
:-)
Of course, I know it was unavailable because I tried to get there asap.

Why is slashdotting a site so hilarious to you fools? Every time a story is posted there are a dozen idiots that get modded up to +5 funny just saying "oh gee, look, their site's down"
1) There's nothing fun about being the admin of that box
2) The fact that all these sheep are blindly clicking on the link is sad and pathetic
3) It's just not humorous.
I've had this for awhile. I call it "Alt-Tab"

One of the VP's here complains about getting too much porn spam at his work address. Not because he's opposed necessarily, just because it's all straight, and he's definitely NOT. I browsed his bookmarks accidentally when I was messing with Outlook for him. He's got quite the collection of favorites.
And apparently at the company staff only Xmas party a year before I started, he was tanked enough to scream "holy shit, she's got tits" about one of the interns that had only been around a few months.
I love my job. However, I think our HR manager hates hers.

C'mon, they can't be serious! A program that runs in any resolution? That would totally rock.
A firewall that passes telnet and not ssh? That's absolutely moronic! That's like defending against an foreigh threat to the United States by stripping Americans' of all their civil liberties!
You know, really moronic!!!
My Karma was at 49, then they switched to words. All that work for nothing!
good old close window popup exploit. one of the biggest exploits with javascript and it hasnt been limited or anything.
i remember writing a javascript that not only generated random geocities sites. but opened 30 random geocities sites, each in a new window, and then the page would also open two copies of itself also. so itd double and double and continue to open geocities sites until the cows came home. or the memory ran out.( which is a pretty long time on current pcs)
i wrote this in response to the fact that our school was monitoring our net usage to make sure we werent playing games (slime voleyball, etc.) through a proxy program placed on a g4 comp.
this overloaded that proxy. so they removed it.
yeah, and i have a even more smarter browser. it encrypts all displayed images, so no one knows that the image on the screen is p0xxxrn.
That's why we all keep boxes of kleenex on our desk.
Duh!
Can someone take a look at what's inside that .EXE for me?
... let's see ... It starts with alot of
binary numbers, anyway. ... more binary numbers here. Binary, binary,
binary ... Ooops! The file ended there!
Sure, man!
Hmm
Ok
Yeah, binary all the way.
Hehehe... I remember Space Quest III. You would press the boss key and have something like this popup:
:P.
"So you don't want your boss to know you've been
playing Space Quest III for X minutes?
Tough!"
Well, I was about 5 when I played it, so forgive me for not remembering
All well and good so long as you are a beancounter. But it looks rather suspicious if you are a coder. After all no coder worth his salt could stay awake in front of a sheet of financials.

Well if I'm a competent sysadmin I know exactly what traffic is going where, when and how. If you attempt to use external dns I redirect it, if you attempt to connect to ssh I block it,if you hit port 80, it goes to the proxy,etc.. You have a client and I have the power. If you want to play I'll route you into a hole and wait for you to complain so I can show you the logs. If you get really stupid I'll have your job and a pat on the back. Don't fuck with sysadmins.

... instead of closing it? That aint that useful u know. I can envision many situations when it could make things much worse.
Back in the day when I blindly opened executable file attachments without thinking, (Hey I was a kid, I didn't know about viruses and network security. I thought MS-DOS was an original, fully functioning operating system!!) I used to get lots of those comical programs designed to embarass you while at your desk. You know, the ones that opened up a porn pic of a man playing with himself, that u just couldn't close. Well one such time I received the goatse.cx picture via this method. I went to kill the process. It died. Phew, lucky escape. Little did I realise, that it had spawned a child process. Suddenly I had loads of little windows with scaled down goatse.cx pictures. So I turned off the screen. To my (and the rest of the JAM PACKED computer lab's) horror, a mans voice singing. "GIMME SOME ANAL LOVING" blared over the speakers....
So basically no amount of hand waving will save your job, if your boss looks at a computer screen full of windows containing work relevant source code, while he hears the moans of a hentai anime school girl being pleasured by a giant robot.
Not that I have ever.. er.... seen such... errrr... material like that errr... ever. No really. I haven't.
I hate this forum. It makes me sig as a dog
" It reminds me of old shareware PC games, where you could hit the F9 key to escape to a DOS shell, so you wouln't get caught at work..."
One of the Sierra games (Uhh.. I think it was Leisure Suit Larry 3, but don't quote me on that) had a boss mode that'd throw up a fake spreadsheet and pie-chart. That was cool until you tried to get out of it, only to be met with a message that says "no, you should be working now." Heh you had to quit the game and reload it.
Did you read anything from the site?
Hell no! If I had actually READ the article, there's no way I could've gotten that smartass comment in in time.
Am I the only one who heard Roxette to sing "I'm gonna get blitzed for some sex"?
Don't fuck with sysadmins.
We all know thats the last thing you sysadmins need to worry about....you won't be getting fucked anytime soon.
Years ago, I was running a firewall for my company(this was back when firewalls were "BRAND NEW" and "MYSTERIOUS".
Anyway, at the same time, my wife was working for a company for a real asshole boss.
Keep reading, this gets better.
Anyway, she ended up quitting a long-time job because she couldn't stand her asshole boss.
Well, after she left, that company pretty much went down the toilet and he was looking for a job. It turned out he got a job with my company.
I think you can see where this is going.
We only kept aggregate logs; the security guy and I had the unwritten rule on porn...once or twice was an accident, more than that was surfing for porn.
Well, one day, we noticed a lot of hits to some site that sounded "porn-ish" if you know what I mean.
I checked the site, and sure enough it was porn. Not only that, but it was men on boy gay sex. Hoo-boy.
We checked back on the IP address...you guessed it, her old boss was surfing gay kiddie porn at work.
Got his sorry ass fired within 8 hours. My wife to this day will forgive me almost anything when she remembers getting her old asshole boss fired for gay kiddie porn.
Seriously, this only happens in sitcoms, but this time it happened in real life.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
