“You can get almost ANY manual online.”
I believe you. Most of the old cameras I owned are are available for download, including laptops I still own for the past 10 years. Incredible

“The machine had not been changed from its default passcode “
I started in IT in 1995 (my first pc was 33mhz with 8 meg of ram, I don’t know whether to laugh or cry that i’m so old).
anyhow, pc’s where so strange to most of the user base (users, we called them), they were afraid of them.
we would set up default passwords as “password”. six months later when you came by , their password was still “password”.

The most amazing thing on this story is that the bank didn’t arrest the kids for their good deed....

So other than being marked ‘late for school’, the boys were never directly punished for hacking that ATM in the first place. One would think a few months in juvie jail might benefit their lack of maturity. They have the brains to succeed, though, so long as they don’t wind up in a gang.

Any theories why I can’t get pcworld pages to load in Chrome?
I can’t find an extension or setting that is blocking it, but my firefox loads it.

Never mind, when I stop all of them, it loads, now I just have to work through Adblock Plus, Disconnect, HTTPS Everywhere, Window Name Eraser, and Quick Javascript Switcher, to find the problem.

I can’t find just a ‘single’ issue with the extensions, but opening it in an incognito window works.

There’s a registry entry that once changed re-enables the updates by telling the update service it’s an eligible device running XP Embedded.
I can’t vouch for the safety of it.

Beats me. I don’t do windoze. I’m a linux kind of guy.
You can tell from my swagger and recent lack of dating.
BSD is the ONE, TRUE code! /fanatic

One would think a few months in juvie jail might benefit their lack of maturity. (1) They did not take any money from it (even though it seems likely that in supervisor mode they could have told it to dump out all the cash).
(2) They immediately informed the bank they had a security issue, allowing the bank to fix the issue before some criminal DID make the ATM dump its cash into his hands.
(3) Penalizing good deeds creates an environment where people stop doing good deeds.
