I've:
Overclocked my computer (Yes think carefully and this will sound like a hack in a minute)
Played with other people's code
Built my own computer
lost a few motherboard jumpers, so I created my own.

I want:
To build another computer
install linuxBIOS on my old one.

I am:
building a robot (Goal is to get a line following one)

So, what have you hacked, want to hack or will hack?

this is really not what hacking is.
here

A "hack" could be many things, you see, such as a quick patch to a software problem, or a temporary hardware solution. (CPU's post shows a few good examples. )

if you really want to be a "black hat hacker" (cracker) and kindof embody the media stereotype, go here. Basically script kiddie heaven.

fun shtuff, just dont do anything illegal with the knowledge. Makes you look dumb.

Check the config options, i normally ise -v and -d (if i have an old drive). Verbose mode is always handy to see whats going on.

------------------
Quantum Materiae Materietur Marmota Monax Si Marmota Monax Materiae Possum Materiari?

i have:

built several computers from scratch, and often from several old part from other computers.

overclocked anything i could possibly figure out how to overclock(cpu, video cards)

d/l rivatuner to my dad's dimension 9300 to see if i could overclock his geforce 6800 go graphics set up, and i can but i haven't

as far as programming goes...i've made an annoying looping message box in vb6...but that's just lame.

i want to:

overclock a p4 past 5ghz sooo bad, but i can't afford a 3.4ghz or higher, i just want to get something that fast and completely stable.

i guess i'm a hardware guy, not a software guy. main difference between me and most of the people here. i want to upgrade my dad's motherboard and memory to see how much i can overclock his 2ghz p4, the motherboard is suppose to allow me to up the voltage too, which should allow me to push it even further than i could in my old motherboard. i really really like building and tweaking pc's, i see a computer i haven't messed with before and i want to open it up and check it out...like "normal" guys do cars...anywho...rambling now...gotta go...

What do you mean unlock?

All I did was up the FSB in the bios. (Front Side Bus: Links the memory and all of the other devices on your motherboard to the CPU. The speed of the FSB is expressed as a frequency (it's clock speed) and commonly appears at 333,400,800 and now 1066MHz. Raisng the FSB is core to overclocking.)

That hacking site looks interesting. I want to work with Comp. Security so I think I'll try a hand at cracking.

ZFS has some quite exciting new techniques. Solaris 10 is supposed to be worth checking out.

Building your own FS is long, especially with all the memory management tasks. Maybe check out FUSE http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-fuse/?ca=dgr-lnxw04FUSE .

Will put that in for consideration when I get another box.

Thanks for the FS link, D-SIPL

Plan to:
1.) Build an OS
2.) Build a 3D engine
3.) Mess with all sorts of networking code having to do with security and just plain networking
4.) Build a complete computer.
5.) Work more with robotics

BTW-> If you're talking about "hackers" as in the movies, there's no such things. And the true networking hackers that are out there dont go around saying they're hackers. In fact, you're not a hacker till you're caught. (hope that makes sense...)

3) made a bootable LIVE windows XP cd.

Anyway.. yeah EVIL GENIOUS. lol. Not really. I just think itd be cool to have a lot of my room automated...

------------------
"I want to know how God thinks- everything else is a detail..."-Albert Einstein

the various ways i've done it is with windows XPembedded (a microsoft product.) but you gotta have access to that.. but its a componentised XP where you can choose your own combination of 13,000 different components of XP

but the other ways, that are are better "HACK' is bartpe.

http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/

and reacttoggoXPE (which actually takes bartpe, and has a "PLUGIN" able extention. you can just use a tool to make it pretty much , but you can do some more 'hacker' worthy things too

Anyway, I had to write my own login script in MivaScript (not a hard language, but it takes getting used to - it looks much like XML, but it's a scripting language. weird.), which, upon login, grabs the user's session id & ip address, stores it in the database, and with each protected page, checks that the user's info matches the sess_id & ip that was originally used to login. If it doesn't, it logs the person out. The most annoying thing was interacting with Miva's database; obviously if it was okay for the user to create a second login with different username & password, I wouldn't have to jump through all those hoops, and I would just write it in php/MySQL, but the idea was to let the customer use one id & password to access everything, and to do that required using MivaScript and Miva's database for the site.

The site hasn't gone live yet, and I will probably not continue to be the site's developer (hopefully he'll raise more money and be able to hire someone more experienced than I am), but it was still a major personal accomplishment for me, and I learned a lot. If it's still in use when the site goes live, I hope it doesn't break.

I wanna do that, but the only think I can think of to automate is the lights. I would want them to turn on when I should wake up, and off when Im [suposed to be] in bed. I know how to make it work when the light hits it, but I REALY dont wanna wake up at 5:00. That just turns them ON though too. I guess Ill have to do some coding and get some {I dont remember what the robotic movable thingys are called} set up on a switch so it turns on at a certain time and off at a certain time. It would also have to know what the date is so it can change for daylight savings. ALSO Ill need a computer of some sort to run it. I guess I could make a digital calendar, and hook up the lights to it. BUT I just realized I unplug my lamp at night, leaving my headphones and ka-BOOM!!!!box on. This is gonna take alot of work.....
