For the future: shaking a notebook (or any tech) that has a connected battery without knowing if there is anything inside that could short circuit the power supply (like loose screws) is a monstrously bad idea
Hey Bringus, love the video ! Ex-Con who happens to work in IT here. When I was locked up for 5 years I happened to get a job in the education building and scored my own office with a computer I used to record inmates reading books aloud which we would burn to a disc and send to their kids. I ended up doing IT for a lot of the facility (definitely not allowed but it was a private prison). I ended up compromising a lot of staff credentials and was able to get into their computers and share their internet to my small office. Anyway, I ended up downloading about 500gb worth of games which I distributed to the other inmates with computer based jobs around the facility. I even held a CS source LAN tournament in the law library at one point. Just a testament that you can definitely make your own way in the worst places!! I promised myself where ever I was in life I would have access to Half-Life/Counter Strike - guess I wasn't lying to myself!
@@cristiannegru8038 about a year! I had to find a company and work my way up from a different position. Just have to work hard and show the right people what you can do! There's definitely entry level stuff you can find too
Already done this ( they got android TVs in the airplane I used and I downloaded SteamLink and played from my laptop who where under me ( the plane had wifi and the android TV was on the same network )) PS : I took me the whole 6 hours flight to do it so I played 15 minutes XD ( major problem was to being able to make the TV understand that it doesn't have to start the airline's app at everyclick in another app and the download time because the internet connection to ground was unstable and realllllllllly slow )

If it was a state corrections facility that had previously owned this item, it is HIGHLY likely that they just removed the drive out of the system for security. It's probably why all of the screws were in the bottom corner of the laptop.
Surely they'd just buy the version without the drive, which is what this is? Almost every PCB I've ever seen has room for things that didn't make it to the final product or the particular SKU. It's cheaper to leave an empty drive bay on some models than to have different manufacturing/stocking for them each.
A friend of mine brought some laptops from recycling facility and those were decommissioned laptops from the offices. No RAM, no storage devices whatsoever. It seems the companies always do that before disposing of their decommissioned laptops, however the screws were intact.
the company i work for sells servers and nas devices to military hospitals and whenever a hdd/ssd breaks under warranty, we have to replace them at a cost for us. the first time it happened to me, i asked the it guy at the hospital for the hdd so we could send it to the manufacturer and get a new one and he simply said: "ok, i can send it to you, easy peasy. just tell me in how many pieces, 1 or 2 thousand?" apparently, it's a nato regulation or something.
Its disgusting that they took away the laptops of prisoners who probably paid way too much and got ripped off to begin with. Then, the government decides to steal it from them because of "hypothetical security concerns" like there totally isnt smartphones in prison already. Those guys were just trying to get an education which would help lower recidivism. More proof that the "corrections" department doesnt actually want to correct people, just punish
You ain't wrong I ws locked up for a while I. The uk prison system we don't get laptops but we can buy special versions of game consoles with no Internet capability for a PlayStation 2 the jail charges over 100 pounds
If they allow prisoners to better their lives they wont come back to prison and if enough people dont go back to prison they will have to shut them down because they are not profitable and useless prison staff/administrators/or owners in the case of private prisons will have to go get real jobs. The peoples whos livelihood depends on people going to prison will do everything in their power to keep people in prison
Bringus, you should set up a LAN party using every "gaming PC" you have birthed as an anniversary celebration on the channel at some point. Seeing as many scuffed devices in action at once playing the same game would be very funny.
Another idea is With some weird device with 2 Lan ports re purposed into a router using pfsense or whatever for even more jank as a build up to the channel milestone to be used for the lan party
The password issue you had with the keyboard, is probably because Num Lock was on. Some laptop keyboards overlay a number pad over the normal keys (I suspect here that the keys didn't have the digits printed on them but it was still typing them) so with the lock on, it was probably typing numbers instead of letters
That, or more crazy/wild theory being that the keyboard doesnt send the keys that are labeled, and that the OS converts the signals in software. But either way I doubt these theories because once he is logged in he would be able to validate if the keyboard was typing correctly, and I'm guessing he did and it was.
Some thoughts: 1) unattended-upgrades was trying to patch your system and bring it up to date, and you hard killed it, which corrupted your package state, which is why you got the error about held-packages. That's probably not a good idea in the future. 2) The likely reason you can't type your credentials using the laptop keyboard is that the keymap is wrong, which means it thinks you are typing different letters than you actually are. 3) Prison Wars looks like a Wolfenstein 3D reskin, they didn't even change the music.
Ubuntu's automatic updates are so annoying, that's what caused the broken packages. You killed the automatic updater process while the system was updating
Considering the ridiculous amount of filth that gets stuck under the clear case on my phone, I wouldn't want to see all the debris under my laptop keyboard.
Finding this channel wad a mistake, i found you a few weeks ago, and within a few days i ran outta video to watch on the channel 😭😭😭 I now re-watch em while i eat dinner, even got few of my friends hooked too 🥰

@@TommyAgramonSeth i thought this as well, my work laptop does the same thing when I press numlock on my USB keyboard, blocks off part of the right hand side of the integrated keyboard as a numpad
just recently found your channel and started with a lot of the older videos and am glad to see that you are sill a smartass nowadays like you were 2 years ago :)
The 'unattended-upgrades' thing is a service that checks for updates in the background (and depending on your settings, it might automatically install them too). When you tried to install something with apt, it didn't let you because that service was doing something in the background. Killing that service while it was in the middle of installing or checking for updates is very likely what caused the rest of your problems with installing packages.
It's wild when a prison laptop is more powerful than your own laptop. This is my favorite channel binge watch random videos about a guy playing games on weird computers
I did 11yrs in the joint and had no idea there were clear laptops. Granted when I got out in 2017 my states prisons were just starting to allow tablets and i had never actually seen one irl when i was locked up. This is cool as hell though.

the slow down at boot about having to wait 1min and 30s happens when the EFI partition points to a different UUID of a disk than the currently booted one. There are fixes online for that, it involves editing a text file. Usually happens when you migrate to a different disk. I did not know it was possible to move the EFI partition only though!
Since the ESP is basically just a regular FAT32 partition with partition type 0x1, you can just copy the EFI directory to another FAT32 device and boot from that! Keeping the UUID mismatch in mind, of course
Having worked for CCA years ago, here's a lil' info on prisons and electronics. First, those laptops, and radios, tv's, water heaters, etc would only be available to people in State or Federal prisons. NOT private run prisons. There would be one TV per pod and channel changing was done by talking to a CO in a control booth/room. Fed and State were much less restrictive than the private prisons; prisons whose only goal was profits. And ohhhh, the profits. $60 and up, per day, per inmate. Couple that with private prison's love of plopping down their modular systems next to more rural and thereby more economically challenged areas... well, you can imagine. I ended up running laundry after a month of being a grunt CO and had more interaction with the inmates than most and learned a lot. Basically, you treat the inmate with respect and ALWAYS follow up with anything you said you would do. Talk to Supervisor, check on some issue or need, or whatever because that is what the inmate is thinking about. Its important to them. And that inmate will be standing by the pod door waiting for your response/help, and bog help you if you don't come thru cos you will have lost any respect and that will be transmitted throughout the population. No screws on the laptops is par for the course; anything an inmate can remove and then modify is VERBOTEN. anyway, just a tad of experience to flesh out the post. Oh, my lil' opinion.. private prisons are disgusting money pits started in Tn by 4 lawyers; yep, those low hanging fruit a-holes. I"ve had a CCA admin look me straight in the eye and say that all that mattered was the profits. Nothing about inmate or CO safety whatsoever. Just real pits. screw 'em.
Im honestly surprised that those prison Laptops are capable of keeping 60fps in half life. I thought the graphics card is way more trashy, great content dude (Y)
Imagine being a prison guard and a prisoner jailbreaks their laptop. And instead of like trying to communicate with someone to help them break out or whatever they’re just there enjoying some Half Life 2 lol
This docking station has one USB-A and one USB-C connection inside the dock. Devices such as web cameras, printers, wifi dongles, external keyboards and mice, external monitors, etc can all be hooked up before screwing closed the docking station. This provides near unlimited flexibility to create special use case docking stations for: video calls printing back-up of files WACOM drawing pads turning in files ADA-compliant monitors and keyboards anything else you need!
Even though some random guy on the internet pissing off the government is always funny I kinda feel bad for the guys who had their computers taken away because of it lol
It can. The prison port is for a dock, the dock has some USB ports and a Ethernet jack. Source: was incarcerated and used one of these bad boys for 1 year or so
The reason the keyboard on the notebook didn’t type the correct password is probably due to the layout/format of the keyboards not being the same, so when you typed the password on the external keyboard, it translates to different characters than the one on the notebook
> 17:50 : Indeed it's not "caps-lock", it's "num-lock". On some of these cheap keyboard, if numlock is active, the right side of the keyboard sends scancode from the numpad. So from the point of view of the notebook, you were typing "ga0er".
the Chromebooks I used in high school were a lot slower and that was like 2 years ago, like our school laptops were slower than my 14 year old laptop... anyways I really want to learn more advanced hardware hacking
Prison Wars seems to be a mod of the original Wolfenstein 3D game. I remember that game back when it was new in the 90s. These old DOS games are what started the gaming we now know.
Nope, you should see what they can do in prisons. They solder by scraping down coins and other metals. IIRC, a dime and nickel mix is the best. Then they make their own irons with pencils and sht lol. I made one after seeing a video just to see if they worked and...yeah. They solder. The hardest part would be getting the hub and USB stick as they also get wire from a ton of different sources. Old headphones mainly. From what I've heard and seen, most prisons have a repair squad or guy. I guarantee you that if doing what you did had a benefit that could useful for the short time they could hide that mod...they'd get it done.

video calls
printing
back-up of files
WACOM drawing pads
turning in files
ADA-compliant monitors and keyboards
anything else you need!

Even though some random guy on the internet pissing off the government is always funny I kinda feel bad for the guys who had their computers taken away because of it lol
Just discovered this channel, and I have to say the mix of knowledge and humour is top notch.
Theres a possibility that the prison port can be used for USB, since their website mentions special prison docks
It can. The prison port is for a dock, the dock has some USB ports and a Ethernet jack.
Source: was incarcerated and used one of these bad boys for 1 year or so
The reason the keyboard on the notebook didn’t type the correct password is probably due to the layout/format of the keyboards not being the same, so when you typed the password on the external keyboard, it translates to different characters than the one on the notebook
There shouldn't even be a prison laptop. The whole point of prison is to punish them, not accommodate them.
Love all the sounds man!
And a superbly interesting and your attitude makes it more engrossing video.
As a former prison guard prisoners are fully capable of doing soldering jobs while in prison
the "prison port" is for an old dock so you can have extended I.O and more battery storage, some even had CD players and extra storage

You would be surprised what a resourceful person with nothing but time can do
Didn't even play the best prison simulator "Hard Time"
Dude I absolutely adore your editing style

Indeed it's not "caps-lock", it's "num-lock".
On some of these cheap keyboard, if numlock is active, the right side of the keyboard sends scancode from the numpad. So from the point of view of the notebook, you were typing "ga0er".
Tech with clear shells are so sick indeed. I have really old clear dualshock 4 and I’m loving it

Imaging just getting out of federal prison and wanting to watch TH-cam, just to see your old laptop was used to play crappy games for a video.

This channel has taught me more about tech than school ever could
Can you try doing homebrew on a smartphone
the Chromebooks I used in high school were a lot slower and that was like 2 years ago, like our school laptops were slower than my 14 year old laptop... anyways I really want to learn more advanced hardware hacking
Prison Wars seems to be a mod of the original Wolfenstein 3D game. I remember that game back when it was new in the 90s. These old DOS games are what started the gaming we now know.

Dude i friggen love your editing with valve sound effects just tickles me pink
Nope, you should see what they can do in prisons. They solder by scraping down coins and other metals. IIRC, a dime and nickel mix is the best.
Then they make their own irons with pencils and sht lol. I made one after seeing a video just to see if they worked and...yeah. They solder.
The hardest part would be getting the hub and USB stick as they also get wire from a ton of different sources. Old headphones mainly.
From what I've heard and seen, most prisons have a repair squad or guy.
I guarantee you that if doing what you did had a benefit that could useful for the short time they could hide that mod...they'd get it done.
1:00 honestly never thought about it, but probably why i loved those teardown images as a kid
