Experiences with non-techies

Punches? Why not FIRE?! But seriously, I hope your grandma will make a good decision and give it to you or a TRUSTED family member

yeah, I trust pretty much my whole family.  And my step grandfather can have all the money in the world but he can't have the skill with computers that I do, I purposely put AVG on their computer to protect it because I know some workarounds.  I can install a vicious trojan on his computer if he takes our house.

 

You see, my grandma bought us our house.  So Technically my step grandfather could take it away from us.

How can he take it away? What about the deed?

yeah thanks.  I kinda wanna stop talking about this now, since this should be talked in off topic, not general discussion.

This nearly took up one whole page.... But don't feel bad, I derailed my own thread by talking about thread derailment

Same thing happened with my Grandfather, he gave his giant fortune to a slut when he died...

 

She came to my Uncles wedding, she was 83 by now and she was STILL wearing mini-skirts!  I was so furious, I hacked into her notebook at the apartment and turned off her network adapter...  That noob was so frustrated, because rich sluts like to check their millions of dollars and talk about it to others, so when she couldn't look at her bank account she was furious. 

 

BTW, she ended up buying a new laptop.  And she gave her one to my younger brother as a "gift" because she likes to act super sweet in public, but in private she is a complete asshole.  Anyways, I heard my brother scream one day.   There were about 100 home-made porn videos of her and her brand new husband and they were in the recycle bin, she thought she deleted them. 

 

 

My mom ended up grabbing a hammer and smashing it up, shes also a big Catholic and threw as much holy salt on it as she could.  I laughed... 

Umm why not just reformat it?

My ancient 200gb caviar se is perfectly healthy but it makes a clicking noise sometimes

 

On the off-chance that you are not trolling.

 

The two halves of that statement don't compute.

How can it be "perfectly healthy" and make a "clicking noise"?

idk, shes crazy.  My brother had a TV, and he was watching a show with witches in it.  My mom smashed up the tv and once again, chucked holy salt all over it!

 

I sometimes think she is crazy, she will smash up anything she thinks is "evil"

If I did that I would be broke! Dem Witcher games :P Actually any "M" rated games for that matter. Not to mention GoT and the like...

 

Seriously have you tried talking with her? I myself am a Christian that is basically of the opinion that all religion is binding and does not lead to the freedom that Jesus offers us. Hope you can speak some sense into her eventually...

You wouldn't possibly "leak" that workaround... For reasons...

 

 

Okay maybe better not to, if you want to keep your job.

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

yeah, i'm a Christian and I don't go to church because my mom makes it hell for me.  I have my own pc in my own room and so she never sees what I'm actually doing (playing M rated games)

yeah lol.  

 

I'm not telling you.  Or anyone else.  I mean, I've told the guys but they aren't doing anything about.   Maybe one day someone will expose it and the devs will rush to fix it,  who knows.

You can't trust anyone on the internet. Leak it to someone, and the knowledge will spread to thousands of wrong hands, seeking to take advantage of it.

yeah, and considering how easy the workaround is.  More people than ever will attempt to do it.  Possibly causing every virus from here on being able to be undetected by AVG.   And guess what, the same workaround works for most of the time Norton, Avast and Mcafee.

A while ago i built a PC for a friend but i accidentally droped the WD Caviar Blue so i told him to return it and get a new one. A few weeks later he tells me that he got a green one. he had of course no idea that color isn't the only thing that's different. :P

who cares...

How is that bad? AFAIK WD Greens are a bit quieter and consume a bit less power than WD Blues, that are more budget oriented.

Once my friend wanted to build a computer, but he thought he was so smart he picked out all the parts himself.  He wanted a green build, so he got:

 

A gigabyte sniper motherboard.

 

A Intel core i3

 

A Nvidia Titan

 

A WD green 2TB

 

4GB of DDR3 1600mhz RAM

 

He didn't build it at least, I talked him out of it.

Holy bottlenecks.....

The year is 20XX. Everyone plays Fox at TAS levels of perfection. Because of this, the winner of a match depends solely on port priority. The RPS metagame has evolved to ridiculous levels due to it being the only remaining factor to decide matches.

Only Abate, Axe, and Wobbles can save us.

Me and my brother gave a PC to my grandfather for his birthday, so I had to teach him how to send mail, use skype and ms word.

One week latter he wrote a mail to a friend of his, but instead of sending the mail he saved it to drafts, then called his friend and he told him his mail and password so he can log in and read it.

2 years latter he is doing ok.... but he still uses his typewriter more then he uses his PC, I die a little every time I see that.

Also his face when i told him my flash drive can store hundreds of songs :D

So how do they enforce iPad purchases? What if the child's family can't afford an iPad? What if you already know android tabs are far superior and that money should be spent on a good tablet?

 

I'm from the UK so I don't understand this =P

they have some that you can rent / borrow but they are in terrible condition. This is happening in the UK

 

My ancient 200gb caviar se is perfectly healthy but it makes a clicking noise sometimes

my segate barracuda has been going for 13300 hours and it makes the same noise sometimes

 

This nearly took up one whole page.... But don't feel bad, I derailed my own thread by talking about thread derailment

hehehehe

You can hire an ipad. sorry i forgot to say that.

 

What are the iPads used for? If the school's too poor for a computer lab, should they even try their hand at something like this?

You need "school apps" i don't know what they are for

That unbalanced build..it's like building a pyramid where the pointy bit is in the middle and that broad bit is at the very top.

There's nothing wrong with WD greens, they're a bit slower etc. But he had no clue. Sadly he didn't go with "the black one". :P
