Today started off very normal just like every other stupid monday. Until i got to school and found out that we are learning about how to hack wireless networks. i wont bore you non-nerd friends with any specifics of what this means, so i will try to put it into terms so that you can understand how sweet it is. I am going to assume that most of you are familiar with what a wireless network is...i mean come one, it is freakin 2009 guys, seriously, who uses wires anymore. anyway, most wireless networks have some form of security to prevent unauthorized people to access the network. So, we are learning how to "crack" this security and find out the password of the network in order to "hack" into the network using a version of Linux that boots off of a USB flash drive. this is generally considered to be a very bad thing in the IT industry, it is reffered to as a threat or attack by a "bad guy", but it is also really freakin cool and fun. anyway, we are learning it because my professor says that to be able to stop a "hacker" you have to think like a "hacker". so thats what i learn in school. haha.
I dont anyone reading this is interested, but here are some links to a few sites that has some cool stuff on them about wireless "hacking".
On a side note, i was amout 2 mins away from seeing a crazy wreck on Page Ave. today. when i drove by there was on cop there and the people were both still in their cars. A ford taurus T-boned a toyota camery. on the drivers side. the way the cars were situated i have no clue how it happened, but i am assuming someone pulled out infront of someone. it wasnt by an intersection though, so i have no idea. That is why i absolutely hate driving in St. Louis, beacause of all the crazy lunatic drivers.
