    Toggle got a reaction from da na in Experiences with non-techies   
    I have just been using a keyboard at my high school for the last hour and a half for class. I can very confidently say that it is broken. Half of the keys don't respond unless you absolutely pound on them, and when they do respond, they aren't accurate. A good example; I was trying to get to yahoo finance for a school project and the keyboard always types in yhocm instead of yahoo.com. And yet the teachers and tech staff claim they work...

    My school has us use these fairly slow i3 laptops pretty much every day. They are just terrible, if anyone using them has more than one application open the computer literally only produces about 4 fps. They hardly even allow Microsoft word to be open for a few seconds before deciding to basically quit working. It is just so hard to comprehend why the school district here won't buy any new computers when the ones that we do have are so slow they are almost unusable.

    My mom thought that a USB adapter for some random cords that we happen to have lying around is a thumb drive. She tried to get it to work for about 5 minutes then screamed down the stairs at me to help her.

    I have a friend that doesn't download anything from the internet without checking with absolutely everyone that he can ask to make sure the item is safe. He has several different antivirus running but still doesn't trust them. He has honestly told me that he doesn't do it because there is the threat of a virus in even the safest places. He didn't download minecraft until I assured him that the website and minecraft itself are incredibly safe.

    I would be a current-gen pentium. Slow with the thinking intensive tasks, but can still perform admirably under pressure.

    Toggle got a reaction from Technous285 in Google Chrome bypass ad blocker extentions for YouTube. Adds a bit of revenge too.   
    Well, I don't block ads because they are annoying, I block them because where I am for college doesn't exactly have the best bandwidth for students to use. Ads take up too much of an already slow connection, so I block as much as I can to be sure that I can actually watch a YouTube video properly. Hopefully I can keep blocking them so that I can keep watching YouTube videos as a whole.

    Someone inject Kanye with this until he reaches normal levels of intelligence or his brain explodes, either are acceptable outcomes.

    I have spent approximately $203.69 but my items are currently worth $209.86 so, I guess I came out ahead?

    Toggle got a reaction from NeatSquidYT in What's the weirdest thing about your PC?   
    I have a fan that makes lots of noise every now and then. It works perfectly fine, but if it sits at idle speeds for a while, it either starts to click on a very non-pattern manner, or it starts to ramp up in speed with no notifications in either the bios or any monitoring application. It's befuddled me.

    Whenever I get into a Skype call these days, I get these moments when my friends start receiving static from my end and I have literally done nothing on my PC. It happened today when I was simply sitting at my computer, without anything displayed on the screens, and my friend basically couldn't hear anything but static from my side. He couldn't even hear me talking. I've tried everything I could think of and it still happens.
