How did you mess with school computers?

A teaching seminar was held in one of the classrooms that I took a class in. Students came in the next morning to see a username and password on the whiteboard. It didn't take long for us to test it on school computers.

The account had admin level access and could go into any student's directory. This led to rampant cheating on homework and labs.

I used it on my physics labs in senior year. I, and a few others, were caught and had to make up a few of the labs in the early morning in order to be able to take our finals. Also had detention for weeks.

A year later, after I had graduated and was in college for CS, I applied for a job at the school as a system administrator. The guidance counselor was in the room when I was talking to the IT admin. When I left, she brought up how I had broken policy and accessed files via that breach. The IT admin found me in the hall and asked me about it. I explained that I had taken my punishment, made up the labs, and didn't feel that it would affect my work at the school, but would withdraw my application anyway.

What's that video game boss you've never been able to beat, or took you the longest to beat?

The final boss of final fantasy 13. I was doing fine up until it cast death on my main character. In that game, you have 3 characters out in your active party, but the only one that matters is the middle character. After about 30 minutes of fighting, the boss cast death on my main character and they died. My two other characters were alive, I had Phoenix Downs, but because of how the game is, they are not allowed to have a turn unless the main character is alive. Immediate game over.

I turned off the console and never went back. While I understood that it was a mechanic, it just felt cheap.

Don't you worry. With every new console release, you can accommodate guarantee that Skyrim will be on it at some point. It's like Bethesda NEEDS to release it on every single platform.... Sometimes multiple times.
