Hacker Accesories!

I'm going 100% hacker style, so i was wondering if you have any suggestions at ALL. Computer based accesories or clothing or posters or magazine subscriptions, whatever suggestions you have i'l consider them and probably put them into practise. So fire away…

Get addicted to The Prodigy, and have HBH as your home page

I've done everying since my last post except play hacky sack, what the fuck is a hacky sack?

LOL i don't know either imma ask Hack4u haha

its a little ball with beans or something in it that you kick up and down. some people think its fun and a sport. i think its pointless, but that might just be cuz i suck at it.

A beanbag?

Haha ok

1. Get glasses!!! (They are good for the hacker look, In my opinion…)
2. Develop the computer hunch. (Leads to the bad back and a nessecity to stay in your computer seat.)
3. Customize everything.
4. Go Nocturnal (become a creature of the night)
5. All gifts directed at you get returned if they are not computer related.
6. Set HBH as your Hompage ;)

Please note these things aren't need to be a hacker they will just make people go:

"OMFG he's a nerd!"

ultimate hacker accessory, a comfy chair :)

no one wants to use a computer on a hard wooden chair dragged in from the kitchen :(

and i have HBH as my home page, and am so "HaX0r 1337" (ITS A JOKE! DONT FLAME ME!!!!!) that i set it as the homepage on evey computer i used in zambia, i was there for two weeks ;)

my computer's in my kitchen, so i have an excuse for using the wooden chair.

a hacky sack is like a little cloth sack, shaped into a ball w/ beads in it as stated previously. and you kick it up and down, that was also stated previously. you are not allowed to use your hands. do tricks w/ it. it is pretty fun once you get good at it. it took me forever just to get past 4 hits.

I think i have the hacker look and feel down quite well. You will need a small back-pack full of essentials. I dont leave the house with out mine. My bag contains:

1, my laptop(not all the time but mostly.) 2, A couple of copies of 2600 magazine(handy size allows reading on the bus, or luas) 3, A book on Unix, linux, hacking, networking, or some other useful item to catch up on reading when your not doing anything else, 4, a screwdriver, or leatherman, 5, Pliers, or again the leatherman. 6, random cables, crimper, and other assorted techy goods. 7, a few plastic bags(very useful) 8, A notebook, for writing down ip addresses, sketching ideas, writing pieces of code down when you think of them etc. 9, A pen(see number 8)

Once you have your bag a while you will know what to put in it. Get an asortment of cool techy t-shirts. "There is no place like 127.0.0.1", etc.

Run linux, I know I once thought that windows and I had a special bond, but you learn so much on how the system works by using linux, as everything is open to you. You cant learn about car mechanics by driving a car where the bonnet is welded shut. Also all the best hacking tools are written for linux first.

When I say linux here, I mean a *Nix, as in Unix, BSD, etc.

Try listening to relaxing music for hacking, not heavy metal or techno. It helps you concentrate a hell of alot better. Enya works well for me. Don't laugh, just try it. I can spend 24 hours on a problem with Enya, Tchiakovsky, and John williams in the background, where as one album of Metallica will just wear me out and prevent me from concentrating.

Get a computer in your room so that your siblings/parents etc are not aware just how long you send in front of your computer.

Start spending large quantities of time at it. This is where the comfy chair comes in.

I am not saying by doing these you will suddenly wake up l33t, but its what I have found to help me alot.

Sorry but i have to disagree with the style of music. I'm a metalhead so listening to metallica gets my brain going, i can work better listening to metallica than i could enya because it would just plain annoy me and i'd turn it off! Each to their own i say!

Thats fair enough. 10 hours of metallica would do my head in. Where as soft non-vocal stuff means my mind is not distracted, so I turn it on, start working on something, and next thing you know the disk has ended. Also good for reading or studying, becuase you know you have done an hour when the disk ends.

I was going to say I carry my screwdriver around all the time, but the because of the sick minded people we have on this site:p, I carry two screwdrivers around!

This post will be in the world cup spirit :-

I dont use screwdrivers i go naked and throw my tackle about, no one kicks off then. Also, as cubeman372 knows my balls go to my knees so i score a few with them. If you want to be a hacker play the game. Take your laptop to bed and keep clean sheets, that's a task.

1. Buy a few programming ebooks, put them in your toilet, thats a good place to read, you have no other options :p
2. Download a ton of ebooks.
3. Do some kind of sport. Real sport, like soccer. Not chess or Quake. It gets your mind of computers and sorts things out.
4. Get enough sleep, there's nothing worse then trying to figure something out when you're tired
5. Listen to whatever you like, Metal, Enya, Techno, Hardcore. I do disrecommend Techno and Hardcore.
6. Get mIRC and other IM services.
7. Get Gmail, subscribe to lots of newsletters, no need to delete them, you've got plenty of space
8. Subscribe to hacker forums like these, get connections.

Thats it, but just the basics tho.

I carry all my hacker stuff around in my purse…actually i carry almost everything in my purse….it mostly consists of:

1. Screwdrivers
2. a notepad
3. a pen
4. a pocket knife
5. a utility knife w/ extra blade
6. a beigebox
7. a busybox
8. wirestrippers/wire cutters
9. a 9V battery(actually usually 2 or 3)
10. a wallet full of money and stuff(of course)
11. Crayons!!:D
12. HBH signs, left over from an urban defacement day
