Cracking the Case

Saturday, January 22nd, 2005 at 7:05 pm

Skippy bought a laptop in a security case. It was very secure, he couldn’t get into it. We tried brute forcing it by trying all possible numbers on the 3 dial combo lock but we must have missed something. Then tried unscrewing the hinges which didn’t work. Finally I googled for some info on combo locks. I felt like Trinity from The Matrix as I absorbed the Google knowledge about combo locks into my brain. I then tried again and cracked it in about 10 minutes.

Skippy was also looking for a script that shows the university week number. I had already written one. I always seem to have useful code around.
