- stealth658, on 10/12/2007, -1/+176hacked a computer in the same subnet? damnn, he must be leet.
- Steelfox, on 10/12/2007, -19/+191I don't know, maybe it's because i'm not a hacker or something, but I didn't find that funny/poster-worthy at all.
- nebunezzar, on 10/12/2007, -5/+127The text forms a bottle, hence the Absolut.

yeah, hacking an invalid destination would be leet. I think you mean 127.0.0.1.... - Steelfox, on 10/12/2007, -7/+112mirror: http://i19.tinypic.com/2wcl06b.gif
- ricodued, on 10/12/2007, -21/+111To The Incorrect-Usage-of-'Hacker' Complainers:
You know how sometimes a word means one thing, but it's used so frequently that it takes on a different meaning? I'd cite an example but I can't remember the word.
Anyway, don't you guys think that 'cracker' is just becoming synonymous with 'hacker', no matter how hard you fight it? It's everyone's perception that crackers are hackers anyways, there's no turning back now.
/two cents - Sebastian, on 10/12/2007, -2/+78Aha the text makes a bottle ohh there smart . What ever happened to just putting a girl with big boobs holding a fifth ?
- stealth658, on 10/12/2007, -4/+75ahh yes, i reformatted that ***** disk0s1 once teehehehehhh
but then my computer stopped working.. he must have had some crazy antihacking protection or somesthing - RadioFreeOpium, on 10/12/2007, -3/+62nice poster, but if I put it up in my room nobody would get it and they would throw things at me.
- kingfoot, on 10/12/2007, -9/+62oh wow i dont know how i didnt catch that. but yeah, kinda lame...

THAT'S a mirror. - radcopter, on 10/12/2007, -5/+39if youre not 'elite', youre probably not 'l33t' either.
- TsarDusan, on 10/12/2007, -5/+39meh
- Obligation, on 10/12/2007, -7/+40I'd mind it less if there was another word for hacker
- spyrochaete, on 10/12/2007, -12/+38If you dugg down 12geeks you don't know the meaning of the word hacker. Check out a copy of 2600 Hacker Quarterly magazine to learn that hacking encompasses many, many things, but never trojans or viruses.
- merreborn, on 10/12/2007, -4/+26The whole "bad hackers are called crackers" argument lost in '96. Sorry. You can blame the mainstream media, for the most part.
However, there are no crackers at this con:

Just a bunch of gray-haired programmers who've been coding since before you were born. - Naveg, on 10/12/2007, -8/+29oh man he got pwned!! omgzzzwtflollololerskates!
- Mimorox, on 10/12/2007, -6/+24It's like how people call large trash receptacles "dumpsters" when in fact, thats the brand name. Lots of common cursewords also used to have different meanings several years ago.
Or like how people refer to the 'USA' as 'America'. >_> - Jarcon, on 10/12/2007, -6/+24I just want to know why he put a trojan on his own Cable modem? (192.168.100.1)
- SirGrok, on 10/12/2007, -2/+20This makes me feel the urge to go and support Absolut by getting ***** tonight. Yes, I imagine that that is the plan now.
- Rivetgeek, on 10/12/2007, -3/+20192.168 isn't routable...that's how you know he's local....

- nakile, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15Digg: Absolute Server Crashers
- manitoba98xp, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15Not necessarily. There is no rule which says that the 192.168.x.1 IP must be the router/gateway; it's just common.
- falloutsyndrome, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15that's what the virus he's uploading does.
- wastern, on 10/12/2007, -5/+18you are all putting far too much thought into this. I think you all need to take a break and have a drink
- xMikey, on 10/12/2007, -12/+24Another mirror just in case...
http://xmgimage.com/client_images/524/absolut-hacker.gif - sxtxixtxcxh, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12it's all about the spacing.
- eecue, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13I should point out that UNIX/BSD/Linux all allow mixed case / uppercase filename.
- anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -5/+16"The text forms a bottle, hence the Absolut."
You know, I didn't actually realise that. I had to go back and have a second look. - spyrochaete, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12Hacking has nothing to do with coding or even computers. Hackers are people who study a topic profusely and then use that knowledge to kludge together nonstandard solutions to make something do a task it's not necessarily meant to.
Not all hackers are coders and not all coders are hackers. - pete83, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Yeah, but he needed to type it as "ls -l -a" so that it would be long enough that the directory name would be lined up to form part of the bottle.
- peterberry, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11@snuff
He would have to be in the same subnet. 192.168.X.X addresses aren't assigned by or to ISPs. That range is used for internal LANs. That's why most people(unless they changed it) that are behind routers (at least every LINKSYS router I've used defaults to that range) will probably have an address of 192.168.X.X - clickwir, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Wow, I bet nobody EVER got that until you came along.
- Vanadium, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10But that system could have more than one interface. His connection could be coming in from an externally routable address and using this box as a starting point to attack the 192.168.X.X subnet.
- eecue, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12Uppercase filenames? Who does that? Any time I see uppercase filenames I think of either Windows or AS/400. When I think about using AS/400 I feel queasy.
- frogpelt, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12Perhaps...
- NeoCortex, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9It must have been hacked.
- TehFRAG, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Thanks captain obvious.
- rassoodock, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7@Mephux: Just because a hacker writes code and a hacker writes code well doesn't mean all hackers write code and all hackers write code well.
- xt0ph3r, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7I totally can't see the bottle of vodka in that one. :(
- frogpelt, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8They misspelled "SUCCESSFULLY" on the ad.
It must've been for symmetry. - Ystig, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6This is the best thing to hit the hacker universe since Bruteforce Cat:
http://www.funnypix.ca/d/3616-1/bruteforce-cat.jpg - vonskippy, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8If you're dumb enough to run 'telnet' on your box, you deserve to get hacked.
- shadus, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8> I'd mind it less if there was another word for hacker
There is. It's called "software engineer". We give what people used to call "hackers(software engineers)" jobs now a days doing "programming(hacking)"... the good ones who actually deserve the title eventually gain the coveted title of "senior software engineer(serial killer)".
Silly me, i thought this discussion ended prior to 2000. Apparently there are a few people who are still whining 10 years later. - cptn_cardboard, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7I know an operating system that puts capital letters AND spaces in their filenames...
- eecue, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I recall an IBM advert that said "This is not your father's AS/400" and when I actually ended up having to use it at a previous job I vividly recalled my father bitching about AS/400s and feeling the same exact way.
- Cerium, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Even better... Just scale up a vector copy.

If you like it tell me. Cerium@neonmauve.com. I would love to know if my vectorizing work is being appreciated. - syco123, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I'll take two.
