The derailing is real! lol :D

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.

But... now you're doing the same mistake as me :P . I thought he was talking about the browser too, but as he just said 'explorer', he meant explorer.exe

*whispers* You should use G.Skill Ripjaws. Muhahahhahahahaaa!!! Also, is this quieter?  :P

 

*Chases after with stick of ram*

 

Edit: Lel, 1886th post... 1866MHz ram

I can already see the headlines: "A person has been tragically killed with a stick of RAM. The weapon in question is G.Skill Ripjaws 4GB 1866MHz DDR3 DIMM, and the murder was done by brütally thrusting it into the victim's back" :lol:

 

 

And for something almost on-topic:

 

Not that much of a non-techie story, but I managed to get a bluescreen on my Windows 8 tablet, just by buffering a YouTube video (it was the only thing Chrome was loading at the time BSoD happened). This is the second BSoD I've ever gotten in my life (I got the first one by upgrading that same tablet's Windows to 8.1 from 8... Windows 8.1, y u so unstable?)

 

 

Something actually on-topic:

 

One of my classmates said her tablet (identical to mine. They're school-issued, so...) won't charge anymore. She has been plugging the charger to the device upside down. It's not reverseable, and the plug won't go into the port if it's upside down... Yeah... Tells how much she knows about modern technology (she's not bad, though. Nice and funny to everyone, but she's a dunce).

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

For some reason I love your profile gif.

Wishing leads to ambition and ambition leads to motivation and motivation leads to me building an illegal rocket ship in my backyard.

My experiences:

  • My cousins drivers used to uninstall themselves, so I've told him what to do to get them back, and it worked.
    They uninstalled again after some time and he blamed me.
     
  • Lots of people use pay so much money for built in "Beats" sound cards in their pc's and then buy a €10 ($12) speaker from the local fruit store.

Basic guide to CPU's!

If I said I were 14, you would call me a kid. If I say 70, you’ll entitle me too old. If I say 20 you say I’m inexperienced and if I say 40 than I'm too boring.

I'm work in IT Support at my old high school and there is still the old teachers who used to teach me, there is still the one teacher who I hated as student he would always tell me I wasn't trying hard enough even through I tried my best (Most of the time) and he wouldn't ever come to help me when I asked for it, so one day he calls me up and tells me his USB drive is not responding, so I go to him and see the problem he wasn't pushing it in and I mean it was hanging by the very tip so I pushed it in harder and it worked and he asked "what I did to make it worked?" so i replied "I pushed it in harder" and as I left I said back to him "Maybe you should try harder next time". B)

.

Sounds unprofessional and childish. Way to show him you really grew up.
