"client side validation is fine, nobody's gonna open up the dev console"

[-] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 42 points 1 year ago

Bold of you to assume they even thought about it

[-] Okokimup@lemmy.world 129 points 1 year ago

No they didn't, this is just a CVS receipt.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Are you sure? It doesn't look long enough to be a CVS receipt.

[-] JustARegularNerd@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

What you can't see is that's only about 6% printed

[-] FIST_FILLET@lemmy.ml 95 points 1 year ago

usually i think it's cringe when people shit on the linguistics of memes, but this is the most non-pov "pov" post i've ever seen. the meaning would be the EXACT same if they just hadn't included the dumbass "pov:" part. fucking spotify marketing intern ass buzzword

[-] BleatingZombie@lemmy.world 80 points 1 year ago

While I agree with you, this is literally their point of view while this is happening

[-] FIST_FILLET@lemmy.ml 34 points 1 year ago

[-] catfish@programming.dev 23 points 1 year ago

Oh this reminds me when people discovered all the printers at school were available on the WiFi

That's incredible.

Then again, school IT jobs are often given to "my nephew who is good with computers", because the pay is often half compared to the private sector.

[-] user224 26 points 1 year ago

One teacher told us that once an IT technician at our school built the network, connecting 2 school institutions with ~7 buildings using only hubs. That network was apparently almost unusably slow, which isn't surprising.

I have a friend that does IT/networking for a school district and he makes bank, YMMV.

[-] spicytuna62@lemmy.world 30 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

My brother works for a school with 200 kids PreK-12. He's a teacher, but he also does IT. He gets a $500/yr stipend, and he calls me at least twice a week with basic questions that are solved 95% of the time by rebooting the computer.

I've told him a number of times the district owes me that stipend lol

[-] outcide@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

$500 a year?!? Hey buddy, thanks for looking after our IT systems, here's an extra $1.50 a week ...

And not just printers. There may or may not also be a few Wi-Fi APs with login details admin:admin. And there also may or may not be many computers with RDP enabled without password. And those that have some password may or may not re-use the same short password for Administrator account. There also may or may not be SMTP server, though unfortunately in my case it doesn't allow using it so send e-mails outside the network. It returns "Relay access denied" error.

[-] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

If it makes you feel any better, before the days of ubiquitous wi-fi, printers on wired networks in my school were about as easy to discover and use from a distance. FTPing a text file to one would start a print job for that file and it would be trivial to mash together that information plus a list of printer addresses for the entire district network (courtesy of nmap).

This information was certainly never put to use.

[-] 21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com 9 points 1 year ago

My school had a level of security on their printers..........and also a shitload of hackers. Like, the IT department was reporting vulnerabilities discovered by the students to Apple amount of hackers.

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

My high school had a level of security too. The same password on every work computer in the school.

Amazingly, I never resorted to changing grades. However logging into the admin account to play games instead of the 1,358th typing class was definitely on the menu.

my brain is churning through char limits... i just cant believe it would be large enough through multiple systems..but then, i dont know the char count of the script, compression techniques used, encapsulation etc.

[-] programmer_belch@lemmy.dbzer0.com 47 points 1 year ago

It can just fetch the information one line at a time like a printing machine. I don't think the receipt machine has that much memory to hold everything

[-] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 47 points 1 year ago

I would be a little afraid of eating my order after that.

[-] YoorWeb@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

It depends, if the employer doesn't treat his staff well, they'd give you extra portion.

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 37 points 1 year ago

I do hope when someone reads about a Christian Nationalism lawsuit going on they don't find out what law office is representing the guy who wants to hurt gay people. Then find the fax number on their site, go get a temp email at all the free sites that provide it, go to a send fax over the Internet site, and send them long faxes.

[-] Railing5132@lemmy.world 39 points 1 year ago

An old trick you could do on old physical fax machines was to tape a couple of sheets of black construction paper together, feed them into the machine and tape them into a loop. Dial your special person and burn through all their toner. Of course, now it would just generate a bunch of emails.

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Black fax - such an effective remote physical attack that fax companies had to actually hard-code a defence against it, to not print pages where there would be enough ink or toner dispensed that it could damage the machine or be a fire hazard

I...never thought of this, thank you for the idea.

What kind of idiot doesn't check for the Shreck script when validating input? Bunch of amateurs.

[-] eco_game@discuss.tchncs.de 21 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yooo this reminds me, I think there was an ~~AITA~~ comment on reddit some time ago about a guy who burned down a Pizza place due to putting the entire bee movie script in a message box.

Edit: I believe it was a comment on an Askreddit thread, but a quick google search appears to not be enough to find it

Edit 2: I think it's this one, no clue if it actually happened though https://www.reddit.com/r/tifu/comments/bjttfe/tifu_by_ordering_food_online_amd_essentially/

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Ok my copier story. We had a copier room in my high school with a little window in the door. I put a black sheet of paper on it, set it to copy 999 times, locked the door from the inside, then walked away. Turns out no one knows where the key was to the little copier room. I got caught and was punished. The end.

Why do most of the comments in this thread match exactly with the comments in the linked reddit thread?

[-] GrundlButter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 year ago

We're not really that unique. We're not consciously or likely even unconsciously referencing that thread or others like it. We're just coming to the same witty conclusions those before us did.

Even your comment comes up every time there's a similar thread or experience. Mine too.

Happy New Year, btw.

It's bots all the way down.

Am I a bot?

Next, someone do that with the bee movie script

[-] Ad4mWayn3@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Set a character limit. Easy. A maximum reasonable length considering the attention span and efficiency of an employee to grasp such information if required should do the job

[-] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

My God, it's shrexcellent.

Seriously, though, it's 2023 and big corporates are still out here with no input validation?
