How to Hack Coin-Operated Laundary Machines for Free Wash & Dry Cycles

Most people have had the unfortunate experience of
not having a washer and dryer at some point.
Apartments in my area tend to charge at least one
hundred dollars extra for the units with washer and
dryer hookups, and even more if you want a unit with
an actual washer and dryer installed already. If you
are young and just starting out, this may be hard for
you to manage with your current salary. If you have no
washer and dryer, the only alternative is the
laundromat.
If you can't fit an apartment with a washer and dryer
into your budget, then you also probably don't have a
car, which means you'll be taking the bus. That is
another unwanted fee. Not only does it cost more
money, but we have to drag our clothing on the bus
(unless you're lucky and have on-site laundry).
Coin operated machines are usually vulnerable to a
hack that allows you to get free cycles. It never ceases
to surprise me how they still manage to make money
off of the machines.
Note: Some machines are different and are not
vulnerable to this.
Warnings
As I have said, this is just for amusement purposes,
as this will likely not effect the way the machines are
made. With that said, know that you will be caught if
you use this trick. Most places have cameras, it
would be stupid to try your luck to save mere dollars.
Requirements
Thin straws, paperclips, or any strong, slightly
flexible, cylindrical object (one for every coin needed
to operated the machine)
A machine that you own or have permission to
practice on
Step 1 Test for the Vulnerability
To test your machine for the vulnerability
1. Push the coin slot in as far as you can, without
anything in the slots. Take note of it.
2. See if you can fit the straws inside of the coin
slot holes.
If this works, your machine is likely vulnerable to this
hack.
Step 2 The Hack
1. Push the tray in so it is about a dime's length
away from as far as it can be pushed and hold it
there.
2. Insert a straw into each slot at an angle that is
less than 45 degrees until they fit snugly into the
slots.
3. Push the tray in very slowly so that it is almost all
of the way in.
4. Keeping them at the same angle used to get the
sticks in, jiggle the sticks around until they seem
to go in a bit deeper (be careful not to break the
tool you are using).
5. After you get them to go in a bit deeper, they
have successfully emulated the effect that a coin
being inserted into the slot would have. Push
them in the slot and watch in awe as your
clothes become clean.
Dear landlords everywhere, make laundry free and
inclusive with rent, please?

How to hack wifi

Network: Note : Only For Educational Purpose.>!!! 1) First we need to scan for available wireless networks. Theres this great tool for windows to do this.. called “NetStumbler” or Kismet for Windows and Linux and KisMac for Mac. The two most common encryption types are: 1) WEP 2) WAP WEP i.e Wire Equivalent Privacy is not consideres as safe as WAP i.e Wireless Application Protocol. WEP have many flaws that allows a hacker to crack a WEP key easily.. whereas WAP is currently the most secure and best option to secure a wi-fi network.. It can’t be easily cracked as WEP because the only way to retreive a WAP key is to use a brute-force attack or dictionary atack. Here I’ll tell you how to Crack WEP To crack WEP we will be using Live Linux distribution called BackTrack to crack WEP. BackTrack have lots of preinstalled softwares for this very purpose.. The tools we will be using on Backtrack are: Kismet – a wireless network detector airodump – captures packets from a wireless router aireplay – forges ARP requests aircrack – decrypts the WEP keys 1) First of all we have to find a wireless access point along with its bssid, essid and channel number. To do this we will run kismet by opening up the terminal and typing in kismet. It may ask you for the appropriate adapter which in my case is ath0. You can see your device’s name by typing in the command iwconfig. 2) To be able to do some of the later things, your wireless adapter must be put into monitor mode. Kismet automatically does this and as long as you keep it open, your wireless adapter will stay in monitor mode 3) In kismet you will see the flags Y/N/0. Each one stands for a different type of encryption. In our case we will be looking for access points with the WEP encryption. Y=WEP N=OPEN 0=OTHER(usually WAP). 4) Once you find an access point, open a text document and paste in the networks broadcast name (essid), its mac address (bssid) and its channel number. To get the above information, use the arrow keys to select an access point and hit to get more information about it. 5) The next step is to start collecting data from the access point with airodump. Open up a new terminal and start airodump by typing in the command: airodump-ng -c [channel#] -w [filename] –bssid [bssid] [device] In the above command airodump-ng starts the program, the channel of your access point goes after -c , the file you wish to output the data goes after -w , and the MAC address of the access point goes after – bssid. The command ends with the device name. Make sure to leave out the brackets. 6) Leave the above running and open another terminal. Next we will generate some fake packets to the target access point so that the speed of the data output will increase. Put in the following command: aireplay-ng -1 0 -a [bssid] -h 00:11:22:33:44:55:66 -e [essid] [device] In the above command we are using the airplay-ng program. The -1 tells the program the specific attack we wish to use which in this case is fake authentication with the access point. The 0 cites the delay between attacks, -a is the MAC address of the target access point, -h is your wireless adapters MAC address, -e is the name (essid) of the target access point, and the command ends with the your wireless adapters device name. 7) Now, we will force the target access point to send out a huge amount of packets that we will be able to take advantage of by using them to attempt to crack the WEP key. Once the following command is executed, check your airodump-ng terminal and you should see the ARP packet count to start to increase. The command is: aireplay-ng -3 -b [bssid] -h 00:11:22:33:44:5:66 [device] In this command, the -3 tells the program the specific type of attack which in this case is packet injection, -b is the MAC address of the target access point, -h is your wireless adapters MAC address, and the wireless adapter device name goes at the end. Once you have collected around 50k-500k packets, you may begin the attempt to break the WEP key. The command to begin the cracking process is: aircrack-ng -a 1 -b [bssid] -n 128 [filename].ivs In this command the -a 1 forces the program into the WEP attack mode, the -b is the targets MAC address, and the -n 128 tells the program the WEP key length. If you don’t know the -n , then leave it out. This should crack the WEP key within seconds. The more packets you capture, the bigger chance you have of cracking the WEP key.

7 PAST SUPERHERO MISCASTS

The announcement that Ben Affleck would play Batman
in the upcoming Batman vs. Superman movie sent
shockwaves around the Internet. Twitter, Facebook,
and comic book forums lit up as millions of geeks
expressed their opinion that Affleck was seriously
miscast. While we haven’t yet seen Affleck don the
armor of the Dark Knight, we have seen past failures
when superstar and superhero don’t quite merge
harmoniously.

1. George Clooney as Batman/Bruce Wayne, Batman &
Robin (1997)

One could fill an entire list of miscasts from this movie
alone, but the worst decision was to cast George
Clooney as Batman. The debonair Clooney certainly is
a talented actor, but none of that talent surfaced
during this two-hour campfest.

2. Ryan Reynolds as Green Lantern/Hal Jordan, Green
Lantern (2009)

There’s nothing inherently wrong with infusing
lightheartedness into a film adaptation of a comic
book, but there has to be some sort of plausibility to it.
Casting Ryan Reynolds as a man without fear is simply
laughable. The man lacks a serious bone in his body,
and we’re to believe he can stand up to the
embodiment of evil?

3. Brandon Routh as Superman/Clark Kent, Superman
Returns (2006)

He may have looked and sounded like Christopher
Reeve, but he was certainly no Superman. More of a
Superboy, Brandon Routh just didn’t have the gravitas,
charisma or machismo to play the Man of Steel.

4. Halle Berry as Catwoman, Catwoman (2004)

Halle Berry’s Catwoman may not be the Selina Kyle
most people associate with the famed comic cat
burglar, but even the re-imagined sexy alternative
didn’t suit the Academy Award winning actress. Her
acting was simply so abysmal that some critics
thought she should return her Oscar for Monster's Ball
as a penalty for pitiful performance.

5. Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man/Peter Parker, Spider-Man Trilogy

Sam Raimi ’s Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2 were two
of the best superhero movies of all time (the less we
talk about Spider-Man 3 , the better), but Tobey
Maguire’s Spider-Man really didn’t conform to his
comic book counterpart. Lean, wiry and with a smart-
ass personality, Spider-Man was not the lovesick
puppy dog that Tobey Maguire portrayed, who
resembled more like Clark Kent than Peter Parker.

6. Edward Norton as Bruce Banner, The Incredible Hulk
(2009)

Another capable actor who just didn’t seem like a right
fit for the role, Edward Norton was grossly miscast as
Bruce Banner. In real life, Norton’s a very intelligent
man, but he could never exude the genius-level
intellect of Bruce Banner. But most importantly, Norton
just doesn’t possess the inner rage that would manifest
itself into an unstoppable, hulking green force.

7. Shaquille O’Neal as Steel/John Henry Irons, Steel
(1997)

Where to begin? For starters, Shaquille O’Neal is a
basketball player with no acting skills, despite having
appeared in several films by now. Second, while Shaq
may possess more inches than required to reach the
imposing height of John Henry Irons, he doesn’t have
the chiseled physique nor the hardened look to strike
fear into criminals.

Americans visited Yahoo websites more than Google's in July

For the first time in more than two years, more
Americans visited Yahoo's websites than Google's in
July.
According to comScore Inc's Internet traffic data for
the month, Yahoo Inc's websites saw 196.6 million
unique US visitors last month, while Google's sites had
192.3 million.
The last time Yahoo was ahead of Google was in May
2011, according to comScore.
That said, Yahoo is still far behind Google in making
money from the people who visit its websites. After
stripping out advertising commissions, Yahoo's
revenue came to $1.07 billion in the April-June
quarter. Google's, meanwhile, was $11.1 billion by the
same measure.
Research firm eMarketer estimates that Google will
generate $38.83 billion in worldwide digital advertising
revenue this year, more than any other company.
Facebook Inc is at No. 2 with an estimated $5.89
billion while Yahoo is No. 3 with $3.63 billion expected.
EMarketer's figures include mobile ads, which
comScore does not count in its Web visitor figures.
It's hard to say if July's figures are a blip or the start
of an upward trend for Yahoo. The company is in the
middle of a turnaround orchestrated by CEO Marissa
Mayer. Mayer, who recently clocked in a year at the
helm of the Internet company, has described her plan
for Yahoo as a "series of sprints" that will take several
years to finish.

iPhone 5C leaked specifications point to dual-core CPU, Siri support

We've seen the low-cost iPhone or the iPhone 5C a
number of times in multiple colours thanks to leaked
videos and images. However, not much is known
about the hardware specifications of the phone except
that it might feature internals similar to the iPhone 5. A
new report claims to shed some light on the
specifications of the low-cost iPhone.
According to SIM Only Radar , the iPhone 5C will be
powered by a dual-core CPU, and will have a 4-inch
screen, just like the iPhone 5, with a resolution of
640x1136 pixels. The site cites a specs sheet that it
received from a tipster as the source for this
information.
The sheet mentions that the iPhone 5C will have 1GB
of RAM, and will come in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB
storage variants. It will sport an 8-megapixel rear
camera and a 1.2-megapixel front facing camera
camera and run iOS 7 complete with Siri which would
be available in English, French, German, Japanese,
Chinese, Korean, Italian and Spanish, as per the
tipster.
The iPhone 5C will reportedly be 6 grams lighter than
the iPhone 5 at 106 grams and will measure 124.2 x
58.4 x 7.6 mm. The iPhone 5 measures 123.8 x 58.6 x
7.6 mm. If the rumoured specifications are true than
the phone would almost be the same size as that of
the iPhone 5.
It's worth pointing out that Apple hasn't officially
acknowledged the presence of a low-cost iPhone. The
low-cost iPhone or iPhone 5C has leaked several times .
Alleged pictures of the iPhone 5C have revealed a
plastic polycarbonate body back panel in White, Blue,
Red, Yellow and Green colours, a round camera lens
and LED flash, lightning connector port, Apple logo
and iPhone branding.
Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 5S along with
the iPhone 5C on September 10 at an event in San
Francisco.

Nintendo Unveils the 2DS Handheld

The story of Nintendo ‘s 2DS handheld begins today,
yet its legacy traces back all the way to 1989. As the
ambassador of mobile gaming to pop culture, Nintendo
has since expanded the original Game Boy platform
into a new handheld generation, the 3DS, and
presently announces the newest member to the family
– the Nintendo 2DS . The 2DS is a triumphant, albeit
small gadget, bearing a strong likeness to its
counterpart, the 3DS. It can play all 3DS and regular
Nintendo DS games, has access to Nintendo 3DS apps
(i.e. Nintendo e-Shop), and features dual screens; two
cameras; a single speaker, and a 4GB SD card. The
tradeoff, however, is that Nintendo 2DS users can only
play games in two dimensions. At the same time, the $
129 (USD) price tag makes the 2DS a more feasible,
considerable alternative to parents of smaller children.
For the official release from the brand, enjoy the video
below, then look for Nintendo’s 2DS to hit stores on
October 12.
