> horribly uninteresting

That's your opinion. And apparently the community doesn't agree with you.

I wish I had downvote ability right about now... so I could negative karma you even more. There is this constant argument about these kinds of stories on hacker news. It's not about being 'hacking' related, it's about being interesting and informative. I'd say the story qualifies for both.

I think its very interesting... and to be honest it is hacking in a way... not just in the technical way you want it to be.
