Lol at 99 and Dexter is on the edge of SLU and heading into downtown for a lotta commuters. I’ve lived a few places and Seattle is my favorite because it made me uncomfortable enough to ask myself questions I wasn’t sure I’d like the answers to. It’s made me a better person. Love this city.
That’s not not hacking.
What folks think of as hackers today is not really the classical view, which included people just learning by experimentation without messing about with anyone else’s system, or folks like Kevin Mitnick, who repeatedly stated that his greatest tool was social engineering, not anything technical. He was such a big bad scary hacker to the government that they kept him in prison 4.5 years before his trial.
Sure, it’s encompassed by old school hacking like phone phreaking, It’s not what people generally mean, in my opinion.
Fair, but I stand by my assertion that OP is not not hacking even if the usage has shifted a bit in recent years.
