Flickr: hacked xbox (by yoda)

My friend (yoda) was able to totally crap hack a xbox he got donated and is now able to run all kinds of programs from his hacked xbox.
He showed it to me last holidays, and even though I am not a console freak, I was fascinated!
You run linux on the xbox and emulate all kinds of stuff.
You can even surf the internet, view apple trailers online,
play snes and nes emulators, play xbox games, nintento64, everything.
Listen music and play videos – all in all quite cool.
I have no idea why the xbox does not come boxed like that by default, it is so much better.

Harvard, Stanford, Duke computers hacked

A computer hacker helped applicants break into records at some of the most prestigious U.S. business schools to see if they were accepted weeks before official offers were sent out, officials said Friday. A person who applied to Harvard Business School posted instructions on how to check the application status at several business schools, including Stanford, Duke and Dartmouth, on Business Week’s online technology forum this week. Roughly 100 people who applied to Harvard followed the directions, but many did not learn their fate since decisions had not been entered into the computer yet. Harvard’s next batch of acceptances will be sent out later this month. “The school views this as electronic breaking and entering, and regards this as a very serious breach,” Harvard Business School spokesman Jim Aisner said. The school has identified all people who tried to check their status, Aisner said. He did not say whether those applicants were accepted or rejected. The schools all use ApplyYourself, a Fairfax, Virginia-based company that manages Web pages used by students to apply to roughly 300 universities. The schools also use the company to tell applicants if they got in.

h4x0r&downtime UPDATE

EDIT: Recently encoutered what I can say “positive negative” hack attempt: Faggots took over the archives folder which was accidently chmodded to 777. How comes every blogger needs chmod 777? This is so offensive.
Anyhow, they faked some headers, uploaded phpwebshell, phpmailer and shared this flaw with douzens of other fags: resulting in millions of spam (phishing) emails that were sent out. Sorry to those who got any! That?s also the reason why my site was down roughly 48hours. The case already went to the national persecution&law center as phishin spam is a major fraud. Luckyly there are log files and they didn?t use proxies, thus it is just a matter of time until the ones fucking about get raped by law. / End UPDATE
