MacGyver Computing
Audience: All
Technical Level: All over the place
Even with the best laid plans, law school IT can resemble a certain 80's action-adventure series. We know, because we've lived it. Sometimes, like MacGyver, you just have improvise and use what you have available.
In this presentation, we will recount some of our exploits, such as
- Shooting lasers from the tops of law school buildings.
- Turning an email account into a plain paper fax machine.
- Carrying secret data past armed security checkpoints.
- Turning a well-placed windowsill into an internet connection
And even more!
Swiss army knives, duct tape, and Knoppix disks are not required (and probably shouldn't be in your airplane carry-on out of here).
