    Had a random guy that I spoke to at a bar ask me if I could hack a university to forge a degree for him when I told him I work in IT. Even if I could do something like that, it seems like a really risky and unethical thing to do for some rando at a bar.

      I once had the knowledge how you could hack a government system to get free fishing licenses. Seemed like a high risk / low reward type of deal though.

      I could probably do that in LibreOffice. Like, how hard is it to print out a thing that says “BACHELOR’S OF SCIENCE” in that stupid old school font.

      That’s when you say yes, edit the page source in browser, show him it says he has a degree, get paid, and disappear.
