    I mean this seems ok? It’s a school you can’t expect them to be bleeding edge, but they’re trying to expose kids to more than Windows and MS Word at least.

    If they actually use Wireshark, good for them!

      The map looks like desktop wallpaper for Kali Linux, a distribution that comes with all the tools you need to do penetration testing, security assessments, or hacking.

        I don’t know where this is, but I know a kid getting some amazing security and hacker knowledge from a tech high school. I’ve had to deal with consultants who have less knowledge

    If they can teach even just some basics of packet sniffing and protocol analysis, they’re giving those students a lot of valuable experience.

    I was once asked by my school principal to make a 3D printer “move around” at some school fair. The printer was a cheapest chinese reprap assembled by clueless people. I wanted so bad to be the one assembling it or to help fix it but “it wasn’t my responsibility”. They brought the dead machine to the fair anyway cause it looked cool but it would’ve been much cooler if it worked, and I would’ve gotten into 3D printing three years earlier than I did.

    I don’t know why I’m sharing this hardly relevant information but man I’m still salty about it.
