There used to be...

I have seen servers with optical drives rigged to press the power button of another server when the drive ejects it's tray.

Just SSH into it and run the eject command, wait a few min, run it again, then run it twice again.

This would make it hold the button to power it off, release the button, and push it quickly again to power up the machine.

Note that you need the old desktop style of optical drive with a powered tray for this to work

That's simultaneously janky and genius. I love it.

Hmm, that would really send a message to all my enemies...

Is that what they were "jousting" with at the beginning of the movie "Hackers?"

I don't remember the scene, so I can't say.

Love the movie though!

Hack the planet!
