NSLU2 Now More Useful

Posted by michael on from the oh-so-helpful dept.

NSLUG writes "The WRT54G's not the only hackable kid on the block. Linksys has a new device out. The NSLU2 is a tiny network storage device running Linux and it's been hacked to add SSH, NFS, an iTunes server, etc. Tom's Hardware is running a series of articles on how to hack the NSLU2. The first article is here and the second is here. Check out this page for details on getting into the box."

      I think it is safe to say that no-one in their wildest dreams could have picked a more ideal 10 millionth post then this! Ok, ok, the userid could be binary (maybe 10) and the date could be pretty (say 10/10/10 10:10) but the content of the post and even the username and email address, it nearly seems like a fix! I can see the next thinkgeek t-shirt already! I might even print my own!

      Well, if it isn't ObviousGuy, my old FP nemesis...

      It's no use trying to hide your real intentions by posting at +5 interesting. That's the oldest trick in the book, it doesn't fool anybody.

      You think you've gotten 10^7th post because of all that money invested in a highspeed connection and a 2 by 4 reload button. You just got lucky! In the end my skilzz will beat your daddies money.

      See you at 2^24th post.

      I hereby announce my line of high-quality t-shirts commemorating what will go down in history as a moment of sheer perfection in geekdom. The name, the post, the event... all so perfect for the occasion. Truly a singular moment, and we should all be proud to have been here.

      The shirts will be available in S, M, L, XL, XXL, and Admin.

      Babylon 5 decals are optional.

      Whoever owned ObviousGuy's account, please give it back. You've made your point, AND you got the 10 millionth post. There can be no greater glory to achieve, except for the respect of your fellow haX0rz and Slashdot citizens for being a good sport and returning the account.

      And congratulations on a perfect 10 millionth post. Well done.

    THAT was the great and historic 10,000,000th post. Beautiful. I'm reminded of the "I don't know" written on the chalkboard in Fast Times At Ridgemont High.
