Mine was hacking
Visually it looks like it's navigating a maze but 90s films taught me that when it finds the skull in the center of the maze it's successfully hacked the government

The Internet is not some big truck that you can dump stuff on.... It's... It's a series of tubes!
Computers were always pining for the tubes
Back in the dialup days when WWW meant World Wide Wait
Fellow vintage computer enthusiast or he stepped away for quite a long time. Either way, a nice throwback.
Or they work in a lab or industrial setting. Lots of computers running machines that nobody will touch because the machine is worth more than their salary. Not just XP, even at my most recent university job I was still seeing 2000, 98SE, and in one case MacOS 9. All of these I have seen are air-gapped though… for the most part.
We have a bunch of this shit still around for instruments. Every year we tell them to budget for replacement. Every year someone comes screaming that their 2000 or XP box isn't booting. Sorry, hardware failure... And we don't keep anything around that can support it anymore. If it was that important to production you should have replaced it a long time ago.
Every so often it would use the Utah Teapot for one of the piping joints. At work we used to sit and wait to try and see it.
I currently have it installed. I hope it still does that.
