Found this guy at my school who was trying to impress n00bs around the place by using Inspect Element in Chrome to change the content of webpages. He was claiming that he hacked the website 😂😂😂 I'm still crying

Lol 😂

Sums it up

R.I.P.

We have been learning all those languages for nothing. This guy is the real PRO!

Ah, the un-bridled joy i get from how that got cropped.

Yeah..after pressing F5 you could have said you hacked the hacker.

Well, to update you guys, once he was gone I ensured that everyone who saw it and marvelled at it knew. They all think he's a blinking idiot right now. And the joke is, he was talking to them about him editing some PHP. I explained the concept of server side execution and how he's only changing the text within an HTML tag, and they were laughing their asses off 😂

I've got some friends who call me the hackerman from kung fury.

but he has all the girls, not you

I remember someone doing that during an ICT lesson when I was about 13

@nblackburn is that a light theme I see? :O

Oh memories! Computer science class, used inspect to change an exam time on the official website and sent a whole bunch of developer in panic for few minutes.

@SirPlatinum yeah, come at me bro!

I had a guy in my college do the same, he claimed he knows every language and can hack any website, literally "every" language and "any" website. So he opens his terminal and claims to hack the college WiFi with a memorized set of commands since he couldn't answer why of any of them. In the end he fails and blames it on the OS. Says if only he had Kali Linux he could do it. I'm laughing my ass off there.

FYI The terminal just didn't impress n00bs but also some b00bs.

Lol man that story cracked me up, reminds me of all the fake smart students back in my university days who tried pulling dumb tricks to look like geniuses in front of the freshmen. I saw similar stuff in college where students would mess around in the library or during tutor sessions just to impress the new crowd instead of actually grinding through real academic work. Back when I was a student juggling tough classes it got me thinking how much better things could be with solid backup, and after digging around I gotta say nothing beats getting proper guidance on those heavy assignments which is why I always point folks toward discover this https://mysupergeek.com/ spot that hooks you up with expert help making graduate level stuff way less of a headache overall.
