    When I was in school someone was once looking what I was doing and I opened the terminal and pinged google. It was midly impressive and I still cringe that I even considered doing this for what amounts to clot.

      🤣 I was doing the opposite - I was making Winforms apps to exploit my school system (mainly browsing other users’ documents) without standing out. They had restrictions set in Windows Explorer but somehow never actually bothered to setup permissions on the file server.

      I ended up creating a folder on the fileserver (normally restricted) and dumping a bunch of games in there (such as gta3, gta VC and gta sa). The IT staff found out after a few weeks because people were stealing laminated posters to shim the computer lab doors open, just to play the games from the fileserver…
