The vendor specs no doubt call for fully (and publicly) audited replacements, right? It's like the (false) Russian space pen story.. how can every 3rd world country have figured out the ink/thumb solution that costs nothing while we spit into the wind with Billions?
Do you have datalogging going on the CAN bus are you just guessing?.. just because you return to your car minus sunglasses but without shattered glass does not mean OMG HACKERZ.
I worked central IT in a State Government job and we had a category in the time tracking system called "Time spent filling out timesheet".. we were allowed to bill ~4hrs per month to it.
Curiously they didn't have any problem with this.. the beancounters don't seem to care what you waste time on it, so long as it has a label.
Universities (including the public ones) are a business like any other and are highly sensitive to voting with one's wallet.
At the one I work at we actually go to great lengths *not* to monitor, record, or police what students do beyond what's needed to keep the peace. we also invite students to bring their game consoles in after major releases so we can fine tune stuff to ensure decent latency.
tl;dr somebody is having power trip there and/or just bought a shiny new piece of oppressionware and checked all the boxes.
You are forgetting that the having conduct ruled unconstitutional only precludes the recipient being prosecuted in the US criminal courts for it, assuming the transgressors get caught doing it, you weren't killed in the process, and you were on US soil when it happened.
So, can I claim this as a victory under the "enemy of my enemy" philosophy?
Of course what goes without mention here is that "high shelf" just means they have to go through the trouble of getting the trial itself declared a matter of national security, meaning they can classify the entire charade (pfft, speedy and public what?).
"speed tests" (the consumer oriented public sort, eg: speedtest.net) are a joke because Oookla (et.al) encourage the ISPs to run a local copy of it.. and naturally the configuration favors the *most local* one by default.. so unless you're paying attention or use a geek-oriented test (of which there is no shortage, but not quite as easy to use) you are just testing the "local loop" portion of your connection.
I should point out here that the CIR (bandwidth you are promised) is generally only stated in terms of the local loop, since normally that's all that your access-ISP has control over.
FWIW you can download the Oookla (speedtest.net) client to run on your own network, which is rather handy if you want to test out that fancy 802.11ac wifi setup (or whatever).
We do, it's called an invoice. You get one with practically every dead-tree bill, just take the slip into most grocery or corner stores and you can pay it.
3750000000/495793 = 7564.25 per transaction.. even if it's the Real (Brazil's 'dollar') it's a little less than half that in USD. If the crooks are smart they are shaving a'la Superman3 and not stealing it outright but that's a huge per-transaction average.
With enough time and effort (money being #3, but two outta three is generally all that's needed).. yes, you can make it work.
If it's just an academic exercise then go for it, try and find hardware from the same (or earlier) era than the disks.
If you really want to flex an embedded device you'll be better off using recent distributions as those are customized for the hardware. Just because it's old software doesn't mean it'll run fine on newer (but underpowered) devices.
BOTH hardware and software have improved over time.
True.. it's like the stupid car radios where you have to enter a code when the battery dies.
If it gets stolen, the thief realizes sometime later that it's useless, and it's still stolen.
Meanwhile, every time YOU have a dead battery or replace it, you have to dig around and find the stupid tag, or pay the dealer $100 to tell you.
You can already buy them.. police have been using them in the form of evidence bags for phones for a while now.

Call your student employment office and post N/20 jobs.. where N is the number of hours/week the lab is open.
FWS students can work 20hrs/wk according to their visa, but it must be an on-campus job. As such, there are tons of students needing a job.
There are tons of ways to do this.. problem is they will all cost more than what your'e trying to accomplish. As I like to tell the bean counter types.. "what you seek is a technical solution to an administrative problem" You have cameras, so that's your "abuse" answer.. you said you use logbooks but compliance is poor" Solution: Random daily audits and punish any non-compliance.
Also, consider the cost for all the inter-departmental billing and your time in managing all this foolishness.. and ask "is this really worth it?".

At FIPS-140 Level 4, the crypto keys are stored on a unit that actively monitors for attack by environmental, electromagnetic, and physical methods.The physical is usually handled by a mesh of gridwires over the die.
The problem, of course, is Boeing is in bed with the government for Billions (Trillions) of dollars worth of military hardware, so don't think they'd sell you an Android phone before having a friendly chat with their friends at [A-Z]{3}.
Intel (and everybody else) does this for good reason.. high endurance components (Milspec, server, whatever) are usually designed for tolerances far beyond the actual spec, because manufacturing issues can cause the tolerances of the finished product to deviate somewhat.
If they design a [gizmo] to operate at 1.5ghz and sell it as a 1ghz chip knowing full well there is plenty of overhead but chances of failure running it at 65% of design are pretty much nil, yay for them for meeting the rejection rate.
Then along comes marketing and says "hey, we can sell the rest of them at 1.5ghz as consumer units".. and the failure rate there doesn't really matter as much because you just print a disclaimer about "your data may go poof" and RMA the broken ones. As long as the defect rate is low enough to remain profitable, yay again.
People bitching about the amounts over that which got the axe is like whining to State Farm that you had extra stuff in your house that you didn't insure AFTER the fire.
