  1. (that wasn't supposed to be a funny like. It was supposed to be agree)
  2. Making fun of what could have been a suicide isn't funny.
  3. That's not autocorrect. The keys needed to type hire are not very close to those needed to type higher in the slightest. It makes you look like a fool.
  4. is it just me who finds the number of people asking "what should I do with *insert old tech here*" on these forums hilarious? Some people have no imagination to come up with cool projects or fun on their own...
  5. I think the oldest thing in my PC is a hard drive from I think circa 2005. The oldest thing I own tech wise is probably a "built for windows 2000" pentium 3 compaq desktop. plz fix your signature. "could of" makes me want to cry.
  6. Forgot there was a Mechanical Keyboards club on this forum! I recently bought my first mechanical keyboard after having spent years saying that I'd never get one and that they were stupid and pointless things to buy (oops). Anyway, I have a WASD keyboards V2 10 keyless. I was looking at a quickfire tm I think but I didn't really like the design, so when this turned up on massdrop with a fairly similar price, the switches I wanted, and so on, I thought "fuck it" and bought it. Got bitten by a 30% import duty upon it's arrival but oh well, so worth it (it's really nice). Also, it's really helped my touch typing because it has no key legends, so it's learn or be unable to type anything I even program on it (finding the * key is really hard at times though haha)
  7. OP: "I don't want an android" LTT Android fanboys: "Get an android!"
  8. But why? a) many websites limit you to 16 characters b) a 24 character random symbol password is pretty much the same difficulty to crack as a 24 character combination of words with symbol replacements c) no one is going to hack you, and if they do it won't involve guessing your password, it will be a data breach or an exploit most likely.
  9. Yes. I still have my first crappy laptop because it was the PC I first got into tech on and was my first foray into PC gaming. I hoard HDDs but that's more because I figure "might as well use these spare drives for backups instead of selling them" and less because I'm attached. I still have an Athlon 64 x2 from the first desktop my family had, and I'll probably keep my 8350 once I retire it because it was my first CPU. I wish I hadn't sold my first GPU (HD 7850) because for £20 I'd rather just have it on a shelf for nostalgia.
  10. Yes, it should be very nice.
  11. My older brother once had a virus on his windows 7 PC. He was into runescape botting at the time so downloaded quite a bit of shady stuff and got unlucky I guess. Anyway, somehow his "fix" for this issue involved deleting some of the files in the C:\windows\system32 folder...I don't know how but he actually fixed it that way and didn't /entirely/ brick the computer. It continued to work for several years with only one issue: it would open about 200 error dialogues every time you booted, but that wasn't a big deal for him. I recently managed to get it to run a windows 10 upgrade and now it's actually fairly decent. Gave it to my mum so she can write emails and print worksheets and stuff for her teaching.
  12. Yeah, that means it's got good colours basically. I just wanted to check it wasn't a high resolution but otherwise crap screen. I say go for it
  13. I almost completely bricked two laptops with windows 7 installed on them through general misuse and poor web safety. Only recently managed to revive them by upgrading them to windows 10 on "keep nothing" mode to just wipe all the shit off them. Worked pretty well, I mean neither of them are "good" as such, but for typing and web browsing they serve a purpose (they have bigger though not as nice screens as my ipad and for typing they're about 40,000X better than a touchscreen keyboard)
  14. I would go for it. What kind of panel is it?
  15. It depends, on windows 7 and 8 large resolution screens can be a bit dodgy but if you're going to use windows 10 I'd say go for it. You probably won't be able to game on the full resolution though, just be warned.
  16. Yeah, I didn't realise the glowing edge around the quote meant anything significant
  17. Wait it worked for you When I did it it cut off the top of the quote box so said no name
  18. Is there a way to put a proper quote with username of poster, date etc in a signature? At the moment I can only see how to make something that just says "Quote" but I'd like it to say who said it.
  19. I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about Serin.
