That’s just retarded. On my school I get to use old (over 9 years old) school as I wish so I now have a linux server running on unused math classroom and shortly I will be setting up linux computers on our computer lab. I usually do some machine maintaining that my user account allows, because almost even small problems would otherwise take weeks to fix because computer would have to be sent to external company handling these things. Also our school has competent IT staff in form of our math teachers who have programming experience on web applications that are used on many schools across the Finland(Helmi reissuihko, now developed by Nextime), and one of them has used linux distro he compiled by hand, but sadly they don’t have full privileges on the school network. They are also pretty relaxed:
Fellow student: “Teacher! is doing Hacking or something! Make him stop!”
Teacher: “, what are you doing?”
Me: “I am using linux on live-cd and SSHing to my server.”
Teacher: “Ok. Continue but remenber that if you break something you will also fix it.”
Fellow student: “! Are you fucking stupid or something! He is using something called xterm and he is clearly hacking with it.”
Teacher: “It is terminal emulator and he is doing programming, also get out of facebook.”
Fellow student: “It is hacking! Remember that I said that when cops arrive!”
I laughed so hard. Our computer class is usually just boring Word/Excel/Powerpoint/Photoshop/Publisher stuff because it is mandated to use that software and teach these things, but I am free to use software I want and do whatever I want after I have done everything I was ordered to do.
