The Kroc center seems to be trying their best to make their lounge uncomfortable and prevent people from spending time there. They now want to limit you to 30 minute or less, not because of covid or anything, but so they can push more customers through. The entire place is open, gym and pool included, and the parking lots packed. Nobody in here is wearing masks or anything, its frankly quite unsafe.

And they took away the comfy chairs and replaced them with these awkward tiny stools with a tiny, badly formed back you dont want to lean into, so you have to lean forward. And tiny tables. And decorations plugged into all the outlets so you can't use them. And they took away the tv! Now we can't watch the news.

I am never coming back. I wish the library was open...

Y’know you’re meant to be using school computers for learnin’, yes?

Not posting expletives on forums dedicated to niche games :p

Well, if you want anonymity (but only if you follow proper opsec; one fucking mistake, and you're gone) and ability to circumvent blocks, there's Tails OS. Yeah, I think I've been put on a watchlist for saying that. I'm not quite sure if the school would be particularly happy about you booting off a USB stick, though.

A bit less drastic is Tor Browser. That's another watchlist I've been put on. This is the Dark Web shit you've been hearing about, and it's very capable of circumventing blocks via its bridges. Yes, it works on standard HTTP(S) websites, and sure as hell can act as a proxy. It's far slower than a standard proxy, though. Text and images do fine, but video... 480p is the highest it will go. I'm gonna save you time by pointing you to the guide to making Tor portable.

Now, these things are hilariously overkill if all you want to access is fucking Reddit. Standard proxies/VPNs would be more reasonable here. Plus, the moment someone figures out a way to circumvent blocks, they're gonna tell everyone how to do it as well. No blocks are perfect. Just look at all the Pirate Bay mirrors around. It's like whack-a-mole; you block one, another one comes up.

This is what I used back in the day, and I think it still works.  It's easier.  Subscribe to their list.  http://www.peacefire.org/circumventor/

I've got that slightly sick realization that I can't count on work experience teaching me how to do a job in order to have a job, that my prior work experience is worthless except in the narrow tangential clerical association to the field, my degree is worthless save that it's a degree, and if there's a job or career that I actually want to do or have in the world, I have to do the legwork myself. All of it. I need to shake this boomerism ideology that I'll get taken on to a technical job fresh and taught how to do it- that's for interns and internships are for college students, and that ship has set sail years and years back.

I'm totally on my own. Nobody's coming along to teach me how to do anything and I can expect nothing except for what I pay for myself in time, effort, and savings.

Yeah ... I feel you, man.
