kinda gay but whatever, I like doing as little as possible while using the comp.

1) on my dell if I want to open a new tab while clicking on a link, I press both clickers at the same time and a new tab w/ link pops open
 
how to hack live network cameras:

put these codes into google:

inurl:"viewerframe?mode=refresh" (include the " in the search)

inurl:/view/index.shtml

inurl:"Viewerframe?Mode="

SNC-RZ30 HOME

inurl:"viewerframe?mode=motion"

intitle:"Live View / - AXIS"

then click on the google links and you'll be able to control network cameras from all over the world.



also, here's a cool little thing to do with webpages
(note: this will not harm sites or appear on any computer except your own):

once you're on a webpage, type this into the address bar and hit enter:

javascript:R=0; x1=.1; y1=.05; x2=.25; y2=.24; x3=1.6; y3=.24;

x4=300; y4=200; x5=300; y5=200;

DI=document.getElementsByTagName("img"); DIL=DI.length; function

A(){for(i=0; i-DIL; i++){DIS=DI[ i ].style; DIS.position='absolute';

DIS.left=(Math.sin(R*x1+i*x2+x3)*x4+x5)+ "px";

DIS.top=(Math.cos(R*y1+i*y2+y3)*y4+y5)+" px"}R++}setInterval( 'A()',5);

void(0);

try messing around with the number values to make the effect change a bit.

 
i dunno man k-rob has some sneaky tricks, i dont want the cops showing up at my door cause i did somthing nasty.

just saying, youve tricked me before....
 
cops won't show up at your door i guarantee it. some of those webcams are pretty awesome though, there's one in a university lab somewhere and you can check out all the cool stuff in there, and there's a traffic camera in Paris that i like to mess with, so fun.
 
i never knew that windows+d shortcut, nice one.

ive got pretty much all the firefox keyboard shortcuts on lock

ctrl+t new tab

ctrl+n new window

ctrl+w close tab

ctrl+tab cycle tabs

ctrl+shift+tab cycle tabs backwards

another good one is alt+F4, try it, its sick if you have windows.
 
If you unplug your desktop, then plug back in real quick, it doubles your Ram speed for about an hour.
 
If you just got the new iTunes on a mac ( 8.0.1 ) and you want to get rid of the genre column in the browser then type this into a terminal window ( Apps>Utilities>Terminal ) , quit terminal then restart iTunes.

defaults write com.apple.iTunes show-genre-when-browsing -bool FALSE

Not really a trick I know but it was pissing me off the other day and Apple removed the option in the preferences, you can do it on Windows too somehow.
 
not really a shortcut...but when you want to open a webage in a new tab and its not linked...on mac..

highlight link

cmnd+c

cmnd+t

cmnd+v

enter

all very quick. then you have the new page super quick. I love doing it. Not really a shortcut
 
i forgot one of the best ones, i hate watching people type the www. and .com into web addresses, just type the site into the address bar, then do ctrl+enter, and it fills it in for you.
 
On windows Alt+space+C is same as alt+f4. but quicker to type.

On Mac Apple Key and F6-12 i Think all move the windows around Apple key F8 gets rid of the window.
 
there's no way it gave you a trojan, you must have done something else that gave you a virus.
 
this ones cool if u press CTRL+F then a search bar comes up on the top of the page and u can look for specific words/phrases on the page it highlights them
 
i cant believe you guys didnt know ctrl f to find stuff...id be lost at times without it

and ctrl tab to switch windows. in my college forum class he showed us how to do it, and i was like yeah, we get it, its common knowledge, and a bunch of kids were like wtf, howd u do that. couldnt believe it...
 
I remember on Microsoft word for XP and before, if you went to the "About" under the help menu (if I recall) You click a certain part of the microsoft logo and there was this game that you could play
 
lol, all this does is search for urls containing that string (hence the inurl command), which is common among online cameras. By no means "hacking" the camera, but its legit and you wont get the cops showin up or any virus's haha. Google has lots of neat features like this that you can use to find all sorts of good stuff
 
9. Go to Help>About Microsoft Word. 10. Left click the mouse once on the Word Icon (in blue on the left hand side). 11. You should get a black screen for a few seconds and then the pinball game will appear on the left hand side of the screen. On the right side of the screen you will see a scrolling list of the development team. 12. Use Z for the left flipper and M for the right one.
 
play tetris in terminal (macs only i think)
open terminaltype in "emacs" hit enterpress "escape"type "x tetris" hit enter
oh and do not use " "
 
Open microsoft pinball, hit new game and type "hidden game" before launching the ball. use lower case letters, and remember the space. hit Enter when you've typed it, and you should be able to move the ball around the table with your mouse!
 
i do this to kids that leave their computers logged on at school

it works on XP. right click, new, shortcut, under the type location of shortcut write logoff. than just click ok and you have a shortcut that will log you off when you click it. What i usually do is change it to be named internet explorer, change the icon to the internet icon and delete the persons real internet explorer shortcut.

 
This works for macs, it just turns your screen balck and mixes up the colors its pretty cool. you press ctrl+alt+apple key+ 8 all at the same time and press it again to change it back
 
download google earth, then open it up and(on a mac) hit command A i think and its a flight simulator. or just google serch" gogle earth flight simulator" its fun as fuck for messing around with.
 
oh word, didn't know they had passwords haha. Pretty ironic that the security cameras aren't very secure
