Touch the banana for WiFi
12A Danish network engineer came up with a great way to handle giving out guest WiFi network access: touch the banana, which then triggers a code to be displayed onto a small screen attached to a Raspberry Pi (good for 8 hours of WiFi access).
I could totally see this working at the Mediocre office- you'd also get the title of "Keeper of the Internet banana".

I wonder how often you have to change out the banana.
@hollboll Around 3pm, depending on what I had for lunch.
@hollboll Whenever it's time to make banana bread.
What if someone gets hungry?
@Barney The creator already ran into that problem- his boss ate the banana, so now it's a croissant.
