Hacking road signs in the name of the FSM

[daftbeaker]

A proper hacker would do it with his cell phone from a car parked several hundred feet down the road.

That's simply not possible. These road signs have no way of connecting with your cell phone. No internet, or any kind of wireless receiver. So we're stuck with breaking into it.

Nonsense. James Bond would do it from his cell phone. He'd make it blow up with his cell phone, too.

Now you're just talking nonsense. James Bond has a mobile phone, not one of these bizarre 'cell phones'

You guys crack me up!

[Dudeman55556]

Okay, back on topic. Does anyone want more comprehensive instructions? Maybe some more pictures?

[Tigger_the_Wing]

Maybe so. But james bond is a movie character, and this is real life. So HA!

Phooey. Next you'll be trying to convince me that there's no Tooth Fairy or Easter Bunny.

Er... I think we need to have a little talk...

I agree. James Bond is a book character. What's a movie?

I'd love to see more pix of what you have done.
I'm not saying what you are doing is within the law, but it sure is funny.
I know I wouldn't try doing it. Afraid of electrical shocks, but to you!

Hope you guys don't get caught.

I meant pictures that are instructional. I've posted all of the pictures of our work (So far). And there is no risk of electrical shock, as long as youre not messing with anything uninsulated (which is pretty much nothing). It's just the little metal things that connect the cables to the battery that are dangerous (I assume they are, anyways. They look like they're electrically charged, but I've never heard of anyone actually hurting themselves, and I'm not stupid enough to touch one and see) and they're not anywhere near where your hands will be. I just thought I'd put the warning of electrocution in there so I don't get sued if someone does by chance get electrocuted.

And it doesn't look like we're doing anything bad (besides loitering) when we go hacking.

Well, you're never going to find anything out with that attitude are you?

Feel free to try, but I value my fingers/value my life/have a low pain tolerance/am too chicken. One of those.

BAH! fingers! His noodlyness does fine without 'em.

[Dudeman55556]

His Noodlyness also has many, many more appendages than me. And they're tentacular, rather than jointed. If my arms were tentacular and I had lots of them, I wouldn't have a great use for fingers either.

[Roy Hunter]

Can you play the guitar with noodly appendages?

[Tigger_the_Wing]

I can't. But then again, I can't play with fingers either (I had just started to learn when we left for Australia).

I expect the FSM can play anything - when He isn't drunk, of course. You might not want to listen to it, though.

[ET, the Extra Terrestrial]

I bet you could play slide guitar with noodly appendages.

[Ubi Dubius]

Noodly appendages would be great for percussion, I'd think.

[Captain Spork]

FYI, dude, you didnt post all the photos of what we did. theres the one of cadillac, and theres the "Giant Evil Robots" one. And I dont value my fingers, nexttie we find a road, i'll totally touch one of the wires if you tell me to!
