Breaking into systems and crashing/trashing them... Cutting things apart with large blades... Doing ANYTHING in a way that is non-standard, but gets the job done. Coughing your guts out and spewing vomit on people... Breaking into systems and gaining knowledge and access... Hacking is many things to many people. It is also something that everyone has a different opinion about. Get a clue, and don't run endless conversations about "what hacking is". This is about as pointless as asking everyone what Cyberpunk is? If people ask questions, maybe someone will answer them. Maybe they won't. Personally, it's more fun for me to run a complete unix system with 24 hour net access from my house. I am not associated with any university. I have learned many things in setting this sustem up, and in turn this is helping me find jobs that pay more than any type of hacking I can do. And both options gain me network knowledge that I enjoy. -Panzer
