Unfarmable land? Hundreds of deadly animals? Millions died from starvation, AIDS, and loin killings? Crotch murders?
You should farm!

« on: January 02, 2013, 12:48:15 PM »Ok so I boot up the family PC on day and a few errors popped up on the desktop. It was something like "Kernal32.DLL error" and it gave me a generic description. I, being the computer wizard of the family, thought it would be a genius move to just delete the file to stop the errors from popping up and my parents bothering me every day for the rest of its life. All went well until the PC was booted down. You see, the file resided in System 32, and I had deleted something with the word "Kernal" in it. I did not get a blue screen, oh no. Windows booted up to the loading screen (the black one for XP). It gave me a dialogue box with the simple words "Windows boot error code purple: Windows cannot boot". stuffstorm ensured (I didn't tell them I was the cause of the boot failure), and we ended up with a new computer (for the family).
Why didn't you reinstall Windows instead of getting a new computer, computer wizard?

Clearly you have to transfer 50 Euros to the German police.

« on: January 02, 2013, 12:11:36 PM »I remember having a stuffty school laptop during freshman year. A random virus popped into my computer and installed research programs. After that, there was a fake anti-virus program disguised as ransomware telling me to purchase this product or have this file ruined. McAfee did nothing to stop this because I presume that the virus disabled its process. At that point, I had to give it to the tech in order for the hard drive to be wiped.
Strange thing is that I only use the netbook for work and for browsing the forums.
Nah, I have done VirusTotal scans for basic viruses and McAfee detects almost none.

« on: January 01, 2013, 08:45:56 PM »Just the fact that they don't allow that in the first place makes it worthy of being hated.
it's that same "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" principle except adapted for religions
