MIT Gnome Invasion

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the gnome-man's-land dept.

J. Arthur Random writes "On Wednesday, April 23, hundreds of gnomes invaded the main public computer cluster at MIT. There were big gnomes, little gnomes, even naked gnomes. A gnome army carried the GNOME banner. Fortunately, the ACME Gnome Exterminators took care of the infestation within a few days."

    This is news for nerds. This is stuff that matters.

    This was a truly beautiful hack, and it looks like the perpetrators, may they be snickering to themselves in their dormrooms, put a hell of a lot of effort into it.

    It had class, beauty, and best of all, didn't hurt anybody.

    As a nerd, I am truly glad that Slashdot brought this to my attention. /salute the anonymous Gnomesters.
