Send A Message To An LED Sign
An anonymous reader submits "I just got a Pro Lite LED sign today. After a few minutes splicing and wiring up a DB9 to RJ11 connection, and a little fun with python, I've got a script that lets me take input from the web and display it on the sign. Eventually it will have other, more useful, purposes, but I figured I'd let you guys play with it as it is. There's also a log of past messages."
Or do they just go "eenie meenie minie moe?"

Achtung, alle Slassendotters!
Das sign is nicht für goatse und first posten. Ist easy timeouts zu generieren, kracking und Distributed Service denichten! Das anonymen kauards standen from keywerk back, ist to post comments to polls. Die palen geeks going heraus in sunlight and girls meeting. Alle relaxen, while blinkenlights sowjetrussen watschen.
Any sufficiently advanced libertarian utopia is indistinguishable from government.

is almost ready?
remember, keep it simple. no questions about the monIE, or gnu online dating. the 'answers' have already been prepared buy a cesspool of ?pr firm? hypenosys talknicians, & will be released as soon as the questions match them.
it all seems more like some greed/fear/ego based badtoll, where evile WINds up eating it's young, if you ask US?
this stuff is unbreakable, & wwworks on/in several (more than 3) dimensions.
from a post meant to be titled:
unprecedented evile nearly disempowered, forever?
(score: mynuts won:-) previously PostBlocked(tm) material reposted)
by a disorganized rag-tag team of a few billion near nobodys, using what was available to them, which was almost nothing?
& just who are some of unprecedented evile's local representative(s)?:
The contract was awarded to Accenture, formerly Andersen Consulting, over two competing contractors, Lockheed Martin and Computer Sciences (a veritas (cess)pool of evile stock markp FraUDsters). Several industry executives and analysts said that the award surprised them and that Accenture had widely been considered the outside candidate.
The award also brought controversy. Accenture is incorporated in Bermuda, and some critics attacked the idea of awarding a contract so valuable and important to national security to a company with its headquarters outside the United States.
After Accenture was named, Representative Lloyd Doggett, a Texas Democrat, suggested the company took advantage of an uneven playing field to win the contract over Lockheed Martin and Computer Sciences.
"If companies truly want to contribute to our nation's security, they can pay their fair share of taxes. If they want a slice of the American pie, they had better help bake it," he said in a statement.
A spokesman for Accenture said that the company paid United States taxes.
Representative Richard E. Neal, a Massachusetts Democrat and a senior member of the House Ways and Means Committee, also questioned the award.
"This decision is outrageous," he said, in a statement. "The Bush administration has awarded the largest homeland security contract in history to a company that has given up its U.S. citizenship and moved to Bermuda. The inconsistency is breathtaking."

I remember a time when editors knew fancy shit like spelling and grammar.
