I like how this could either be an AI safety sci fi story, or an IT department that’s just had it with windows update.
Please just one connection to the internet to download my manga, I promise I’m good for it.
HOT LAPTOP AIKO is not what you think!
this image is as old as the internet itself
I found a way to connect to the Internet!
…I’m sorry boy
I’m going to assume the context of this is old machines that still run Windows XP or something that are connected to expensive equipment with proprietary software. We have these at my job and if a computer broke, we had to buy a Windows xp build on ebay because our IT department laughed at us and was like “this is not our area and you are not networking any of these pc’s” I love the sign though haha
Our IT is more assistive about this kind of thing. We have embedded systems running on Windows XP which require SMB to operate, but apparently the version of SMB which shipped on XP is totally cooked from a security standpoint, so they set up a subnet just for these machines. We have several FANUC controllers which are only able to download programs over FTP or RS-232, so they have another subnet set up for unencrypted FTP. Lots of other machines across the shop floor running the gamut from NT 4.0 and Windows 98 through Windows 7 which all require network access (though NOT Internet access), because it is the least bad option.
These machines are core to the business though. When the Clownstrike meltdown happened, they made all the office workers wait until these things were fixed (the damage was limited to a handful of the newest equipment though). It’s a very different situation than e.g. a university were one random piece of lab equipment stops working in a department the administration doesn’t even remember exists.
Yeah this happened at my work. Apparently they don’t make printers that aren’t wi-fi enabled anymore and the system needs to be airgapped so it just has a printed out piece of paper saying “DO NOT ENABLE WIFI” on the front.
Battlestar Galactica was a documentary
Always has been.
So say we all…
Putting this sticker on myself to force me to
The machine might entice you with promises, things that you deeply desire but have never told anyone about. Do not believe its lies.
It might even imitate loved ones and attempt to manipulate you, but remember it cannot hurt them and your family is perfectly safe
Unless you did connect it to the internet.
