People need to stop worrying about what the fuck their neighbors do. It's their land, they are free to do whatever they want with it. So the hell what if your resale value goes down?
Spoken like somebody who's never owned a home. I have a feeling your opinion will change one day when/if you become a home owner.
I mean, how hard would it really be if every router shipped with a unique SSID and a default random password?
Not very..AT&T has been managing this with their CPEs for at least 4 years. They simply use the serial # printed on the CPE as the default password. Unique and not likely to be guessed.
Not only did the British government changed the wording around its controversial 'three strikes' proposals,...
That's around the part of the article where I stopped reading it. If one can't bother to at least proofread their own drivel, then I'm certainly not going to bother reading it myself.
Even if the student was actually taking or selling drugs, the means still doesn't justify the end. I'd say nice try if the school officials weren't dipshits.
Java is a simple language, composed of many, many frameworks. Now that you have the syntax down, it's time to start learning some of the frameworks you'll undoubtedly be exposed to when working on projects. Some good ones to familiarize yourself with are:
The problem is the system is one that uses a identifier that cannot be changed. In a badge based system, if the badge is lost or there is clerical error when entering data then order a new badge. How does one obtain new fingerprints?
If you've lost your finger prints, I'd imagine there are more pressing things to worry about.
...that you stop being such a whiney bitch. So they want your fingerprints to ID you...so what? What is it that you're worried about that they're going to do with them, other than use them internally for authentication purposes?
I am in the process of contacting the local newspaper...
Are you for real? Other than than the fact that they likely won't give a rats ass about this, you are treading on very thin ice. I'm not sure what it is you're planning on doing after graduation, but being labeled a well-known whistle-blower isn't going to do you much justice when you're out looking for a job.
Since the situation has received a lot of public attention, we'd like to take the opportunity to address a few of the specifics here as well.
Translation: Since our shithead antics and company policies caught so much attention lately, we'd like to take the opportunity to salvage as much goodwill as we can.

well, that depends on what you consider a behavioral problem. I find it healthier for a bunch of kid to be noisy and hyperactive (even if this involves occasionally hitting each other) than to be all hunched down on their 7'' netbooks checking Facebook.
Well yano...this comes from the same organization that would rather have their kids hopped up on amphetamines than acting like kids.
I let people cheat off me in school. The way I saw it, it reduced the amount of real competition I'd have when companies came to campus looking to recruit soon-to-be graduates for jobs. Call me shitty, but if you're still cheating at the COLLEGE level (when you're supposed to actually be interested in the classes you choose to take), then you deserve what you get in the long run.
Slashdot Mirror
This is one of many reasons why I run GNU/Linux...
I have some relatives that can pick up more viruses than a Bangkok whore and Comodo has kept them squeaky clean, and that's saying something!
Now that's a review.
I'll consider myself lucky.
No offense, but this is probably the gayest article I've seen on /.
Well, then the answer is obvious....WWJD
First, this is slashdot, a website for nerds. Posting a question like:
What's the interest in Star Wars movies anyway?
...is likely to get you flogged and/or hung.
Randal, is that you?

"serial" and "not likely to be guessed" really don't go anywhere in the same sentence.
If you can come up with an accurate hashing algorithm that maps an SSID to a CPE's serial number, I'd like to see it.

Finally, a fun use for my wifi card's VAP functionality =D.
The next logical step, of course, is RA3 =D

Nah, we'd be at smug alert level 5 if it was.

...how could the school have thought they had the right to punish her for that in the first place?
Probably the same reasoning they used when thinking it was ok to spy on students and their families with school-issued laptops...a severe God complex.
Being well-versed in these will up your Java street cred by quite a bit.

I really hope they rain down Hell on that fucking school district. School admins and/or faculty have had God complexes for far too long.
I sense some legal trouble for these guys in the near future..

I have migrated to North Korea and will never look back.
Because of the potential eye-gouging if you do?
