Bold of you to assume they even thought about it

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

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

Pov: you just posted cringe

Nobody:

You: 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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

That's what she said.

I still can’t believe it’s been around 15 years

That guy's everywhere!

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

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.

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

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?
