School comps = teh sukz
 
Well, I just got internet access here and it seems every website, Besides a certain few, is blocked.
Basically only two of the sites i tried work (Three if you count google).
so for the next fifteen minutes, I'm stuck with you guys and PHW.
If you want, post some sites that are school O.K. V_V

The sites are blocked to stop people like you goofing off in class. The idea is that if you aren't posting on a forum, you won't be distracted from doing your work.

Personally I think that forcing education is pointless - you need to have a will to learn for education to be truly effective. But do the world leaders listen to me? Nope, they're too busy having satchel intercom with young boys. Not that I've ever written letters to them... but who would want to? I don't trust people that wear suits and play golf.

Ah, my school blocked a few things too but there is always a way around them. I used to just use google translate from german to english on whatever I wanted to see. Then they blocked that, so I just used a wayback machine archive of megaproxy. Oh fun times messing with the school computers during programming.

Dino, school was over.
I was in there because I had found out that day that school let out early, and I had forgotten to tell them.

Stop moaning and get on with any work you're meant to be doing. School isn't a bloody leisure centre.

They're there for a good reason. But because I couldn't search for 'Games' on the internet, I was unable to do my research for DT within school. But y'know, behave and stuff, breaking rules does not make you 'cool' or 'hxc'.

if you were trying to get dirty pics, just use google image search and turn safe search off
just a thought. Never tried it, sounds like a good idea

Oh yeah, because that part of OWF is like the undergorund porn society, fools.

Yeah, my school instituted sonic wall because too many people were downloading in homeroom so they assumed everyone was goofing off. They've tightened the restrictions so much that regular sights we need for research afre being blocked.
