Re: OT - Big Brother is living in Florida
I remember (though not very well) that a game I used to play (Doom I think) had a hotkey that would bring up a imitation spreadsheet. I don't think you could do anything with it but it was supposed to fool your boss when he appeared.

Re: OT - Big Brother is living in Florida
What we need is a mod for SEIV so that the game looks like work. Have ships and planets that look like words and make the background into a picture of a spreadsheet or something.

I think there are "Boss key" programs that do that. Create a keypress that you can do to jump a "work screen" into place. The best ones allow you to use a .bmp you get from using Prt Screen to take a snap shot of REAL work.
Such programs have a problem with newer games that want to totally take over the machine, but I think SEIV wouldnt be a problem since its one of those programs that plays nice with others.

Re: OT - Big Brother is living in Florida
One guy I used to know adjusted the brightness on his monitor so low that nobody could see what he's doing. He had his face really close to the screen so he could read. He could have been playing a game, but more likely he was hacking or doing something dishonest.
