I'm going to say this, and no one's going to listen. This thread is about people who think or act like they're tech savvy, and fail miserably. This could be smug kids saying their macbook could run Crysis on decent settings to garner attention, teachers at school spouting out things that make no sense and trying to get away with the "I'm the teacher, I'm right" excuse, or the usual haberdashery and whatnot.
[b]Posts everyone is sick of:[/b]
Laughing at normal people instead of actual tech-illiterate asshats:
"My friend said he has 1 terabyte of ram lolol"
"Someone said their 8800 video card is better than my 220GT turbo-derp, what a retard"
[b]stupid, repetitive, or extremely damaging pranks:[/b]
"I unplugged my friend's mouse at school and they had to call over a teacher, I'm so cool"
"I told my friend to delete system32 and he did lmfao"
[quote=Daijitsu]
[quote=shadowsniper873]Okay my turn. The idiot for our school's IT "department" (as they like to call it) gave me an admin account on the school network,(because he is retarded and thinks I wont notice) so I decide to fuck up everyone's files. Since everyone's files show up on the network drive, I delete everything from the word documents and copy and paste "I am a cock sucking fag!" and made every shortcut to a webpage "Rick Rolls" (since we are working on HTML there were about 5 on each account) and I delete all the files on the teachers account and replaced it with porn. So after i do all that shit we couldn't use any computers because "A virus got into the system and now we have to format them" (they format the computers every few weeks)[/quote]
And now every student who's files you just destroyed has to re-do their homework IF they have the time, possibly losing valuable information and weeks worth of hard time and effort. Teachers often ignore computer failure and file deletion as 'avoidable' and say you should have backed up your files and it's your own fault for losing it.
Now we have several students with otherwise good grades getting a massive dent in their records, losing several points on their GPA, potentially losing just enough (depending on the scale of the project you just fucked up 'for the lulz') to be denied future admissions to colleges, universities, jobs, and other high-profile opportunities that required him to get an A in a specialty class, but their final project worth that wonderful 10 to 20% of their final grade just got replaced with the text "I am a cock sucking fag!" and they e-mailed it out to their teacher without looking for such a freak change in their past two months' worth of work.
Their teacher, outraged by the 'obvious' act of defiance, fails them not only for the paper, but potentially marks them down even further, giving detention or suspending, or outright planting a 0 on their final grade.
but hey, at least you got a few rickrolls in, right?[/quote]
[b]Blind hatred or fanboyism:[/b]
People who say Macs suck are stupid and wrong
People who say PCs suck are stupid and wrong
"Macfags suck because apple sucks and they think they're better rage rage rage."
"PC sucks cuz Mac is better."
[b]Remember, tech illiterates ACT like they know things, but don't.[/b]
It's fun when they actually follow their own advice on tech when they have NO clue what they're doing, like the one guy who said "My keyboard broke, so we bought a new computer because it was easier", or just general idiocy, like the one 8.5 minute rant that, in short, was "PC cost too much for gaming, spend the money on consoles and TVs because I don't want to be locked away in a room, so buy a mac. OSX MOTHAFUCKAAA"
He actually peaced-out with "OSX." *gangsta-face*[/release]

[QUOTE=TonyTheBean;39996765]it felt really good to be a thread end-er.[/QUOTE]
It feels better to be the thread-starter. 27 versions and this is the first time I've started the thread. I'm usually asleep when it happens.

injokes, yay
I still prefer "Sip-what-ticket"
[QUOTE=lavacano;39996862]I still prefer "Sip-what-ticket"[/QUOTE]
Myself, I use "sip-whi-ti-kit-en-gaice", which is why I appended ", apparently" to the end of the title.
I thought about using either "I got 99 routers but a switch ain't one" as the title, but on second thought it wasn't quite as funny as I thought it was. Third thoughts may change my opinion yet again.
Other ideas included:
"We are routinely moderated+5 Insightful on Slashdot"
"GANOO PLUS LOONIX"
"By Stallman's beard!"
"We barely talk about computers anymore"
It's interesting how all of the threads are still archived
it's also interesting we've had 20 threads since the first title about a lack of content :v
Dang, sure are a lot of these.

just look at how much you would make off of that $150 rig.
Until everyone starts using them and the difficulty goes up.

These numbers are utter bollocks. They're not taking the fact that difficulty will spike to a stupidly high level when they're released, and you're mot going to be making an insane amount of money because of so.
[QUOTE=Ezhik;39996507]isn't it like 1002[/QUOTE]
It's 1000, but i think garry put the thread closing on a delay, and not the check on each new post.
I wanna try that chrome game posted in the last thread but it just loads forever :c

I hope they never come out, because if they do GPU mining becomes unfeasable and it turns bitcoin from something else you can do with your hardware to buying dedicated shit just to do it.
It turns the whole thing into just investments and shit, not just for a bit of fun.
wat, I thought Spotify free was just a 10 hour limit every month? I used it up earlier up this month but now it works again.
I thought it was unlimited (but you have to listen to ads and the music is in lower quality)
It's 10 hour with ads afaik but maybe it's just bad at remembering how much you've used lol
Website hoster is under attack, time to contact support and run in circles. Great way to start a Friday morning.
[QUOTE=Warship;39998371]It's 10 hour with ads afaik but maybe it's just bad at remembering how much you've used lol[/QUOTE]
Looked it up.
[quote]A six-month free trial period is activated upon Spotify account registration or first login with a Facebook account, where a user can listen to an unlimited amount of music supported by visual and radio-style advertising. After the trial, Spotify has a listening limit of 10 hours per month, divided into a 2.5 hour streaming allocation each week (with any unused hours carrying over to the next week)[/quote]
Interesting. But Spotify hasn't even existed for 6 months yet where I live.
Seems my shitty Thursday balances by a better Friday. I sent komplett support an email last night about RMA'ing my PSU. I mostly wanted to check if i could just go and hand it in where i picked it up instead of going though the hassle of sending it back though the post. I got a reply today which was basically "Sorry about the DOA, Shit happens. We are sending a new PSU to you, ETA soon. Keep the old one"
