Computers in prison (Advice for novice programmers thread)

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

There is a PC with offline wikipedia in Breivik's cell, and he is a mass murderer.

Well, if you're feeling so humanitarian, perhaps, you should reconsider the entire practice of putting people into jail. :)

Smash the screen to get shards of glass. Use the glass on the computer's power cord (or it's battery charger's power cord) to bare the wires. Now use power cord to electrocute people until the power is cut off, then switch to slashing people's throats with the shards of glass and/or strangling people with the power cord and/or using the computer as a club to bash people.

This is just what happens at my house when I lose the Internet connection. I'd hate to see what would happen in a prison.. :roll:


Cheers,

Luxury prisons? I've heard a few that let you get your laptop and use it without any penalties. Except you can't use Wi-Fi. Bring the intel manuals and C manuals just in case you go there.
Developing TRIODIUM OS. Or call it Dixium if you want. It doesn't matter.
