Parents and technology.

[Plasmus]

Discuss parents and your silly stories of how they don't know how to use technology.
If they do, of course, then give a silly story of someone else.

My dad says I have viruses on my computer because I have too many icons on my desktop.

Or: Don't let any of your relatives get any inkling of an idea that you know how to use computers.

My dad says port forwarding will leave me open to hacking. He says it's like putting a ladder up to a second story building on the front of a house, people are less inclined to do it because they'll get caught, but it's possible.

IMO it's a damaged rope that is climbable by only an expert rope climber, leading to the 50th story of an abandoned warehouse that nobody wants to be in.

It's nothing like either of those.

At all.

If hacking could be done via port forwarding it wouldn't be allowed by routers to begin with.

-me messing with the router-

Parents: do you know what you're doing?
Me: Yes
Parents: ok

Parents: do you know what you're doing?
Me: Not too sure
Parents: ok
