I love Lunix! *hacker alert!*
I can't even believe that I would buy computer parts that weren't made in America! That is soooo hacker like!
(I love my AMD 64 3000+, so I must be a super hacker!)

Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.
 

i know how to get around the school system's firewall WITHOUT hacking into the school's mainframe and thats why i'm the only person that knows how to get around period (plus i'm not allowed on the computer that has internet at home and i get real bored at school without being able to get onto MySpace. but i'm on MySpace right now.)

Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.
 

you know whats funny about that article, my dad fits all of those, and actually teaches me hacking! ie:how to get around firewalls in schools and other things looking up private IP codes and such...he even owns a whole bookcase of hacker books, installed linux on all of our comps (wayyyy cooler than windows i have to say), buys comp stuff that my mom doesnt understand (however, its my mom)...I love how they talked about the kids social life and how he dresses! I know people that dress like that, but they know squat about computers! :D :D :D

Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.
 

Lol, what a bunch of nonsense! :rolleyes:

The article wasn't completely useless though, at least now I know the titles of the next nine books I'm gonna read. ;)

Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.
 

Always check the parent site of any article you read. It can be, illuminating.

Take a look at the FAQ for adequacy.com, although be forewarned that little of the site is 'worksafe'.

It's a joke. If it wasn't obvious in the article then the rest of the site proves it. They come out and say it's all a silly joke site right in the FAQ. Nothing on that site is serious and it was never intended for general consumption. It's not terribly funny either.

The site went dead years ago, and has been in archive since.

I wouldn't give it any more thought.

Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.

Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.

Best line of the article.

Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.
 

If Flash is hacker software, we're all screwed. Best line ever.

If I didnt know allready that would have pointed out "Joke" right away.

Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.
 

Thanks for the laugh - thankfully it's a joke (Linyos Torovoltos - ha) - I think that self-described bestest parent ever is so far to the right, he fell off the edge of the table.

Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.
 

Flash 4 Hackers? That's one I've never heard of :D :D :D
I hope this guy's joking. The Article is really funny though. My family got a few laughs out of it.
If anybody has any outrageous articles like this one, please post it here. I'm interested in seeing what other people have to say on such topics. :cool:

[Edit] I think that guy spelt Linux wrong!!!

Re: 10 Signs that your son is a hacker.
 

He did

It is satire but what is sad to me is that some uneducated parents may believe it and thats when problems happen.
