Back in highschool they also had those kiosks for adding funds to our student cards, and it would speak out like "Success". I saw someone crashed out the app (probably with a race condition, too) and used the ethernet to download audio files they prepared on the internal servers. The next day the kiosk began to yell hilarious stuff on success and that was hell of a week...

A beautiful example of hacking. Didn’t disable the primary function of the device nor did he profit from a scheme. Just messed with the usage in a humorous way. Bravo.
