Will someone please explain it to me?

It's Polish and it's only talking about how it's affordable to buy the licensed version. It's just a nag screen that many of the free av version have. I don't really get what is funny about the deleting minecraft either.

This is what passed for computer humor in the mid-1980s when our office got its first computers:

Yeah I get that probably a few labs worth of pc had it installed. We did the same back when I was in HS but then it was stuff like Blood and Duke3D lol. I'm sure the admins had a hard time keeping up with us though as it seemed many of us knew more about the school network than they did.

In my HS it was snes9x, which ran well enough on Pentium 120s to play Final Fantasy-series games.

I think several people's first bot-net were their high school setups..

They don't turn um' off..

You're there everyday...

No security to speak of ...

LOTS of computers

Admins don't care// don't know, as it's a government job involving kids...


My friend's proudest moment was when he got all 300 new wireless laptops all jacked up too... But since it was 25 per cart and only 1 router on each cart, these were severely bandwidth limited.

It helps that the students often know more than the teacher. Most of mine were just reading from a book, and a quite outdated one at that.

It's not just schools either, a lot of government facilities are that way.
