I did that at first then thought I might as well make it media tags so people don't "get offended"
Use [img_thumb] then or if it's super offensive, just paste the link.

My brother's a dead man, he better not fall asleep tonight. he stole my phone, and used up all but £0.06 of its credit, and denied it until a few days ago.
I'm gonna go in there with a fucking hockey mask and a chainsaw tonight.

cut his entire 'my documents' and put it in a temp folder on C:/
offer to recover his harddrive for the cost of what he used on your phone.

He's already agreed to give it back but he had no right taking it in the first place.
do it anyways for more money to make up for his idiocy :black101:
Anyone else had classes that everyone insisted on using some short-cut to turn the display upside down?
[QUOTE=-Headcrab-;23432794]Anyone else had classes that everyone insisted on using some short-cut to turn the display upside down?[/QUOTE]
Yup. All the damn time in my school. I just went with it and started flipping the monitors over instead, got funny looks, but it was worth trying to balance the piece of shit monitors :v: Thankfully there weren't CRT.
[QUOTE=-Headcrab-;23432794]Anyone else had classes that everyone insisted on using some short-cut to turn the display upside down?[/QUOTE]
once the school found out ctrl-alt-down turns the screen upside down, they decided to uninstall intel graphics utility or whatever that thing is. Now all our LCDs are stuck in 1024x768 (they must have uninstalled the drivers fully) and look terrible
:10bux: says it's 800x600
Um, this may be an entirely retarded question, but I've never had a class like that or whatever. Why in god's name would someone flip the display, or how would they manage to accidentally do so? I just don't get it.
intel's old graphics drivers allowed you to flip the display by pressing ctrl+alt+down
Everyone in my classes used to do that for shits and giggles, teachers were clueless.
my cousin thought ram stood for reader's associated movies
[QUOTE=Bc305;23437009]Everyone in my classes used to do that for shits and giggles, teachers were clueless.[/QUOTE]
We were told that we were "breaking" the computers and some people got sent to the office over it.
My school also had the Intel graphic drivers that let you flip monitors, when I found out about it, I would just re-flip people's monitors for them when they were upside down. Part of the fun of ruining the fail prank is revealing the "magic" behind it and then everyone thought screen flipping was just dumb.
On a related thought, I'm so glad the teachers in my school are tech literate or at least smart enough to call a tech guy if a real problem comes up. Hearing these horror stories about people being punished out of teacher ignorance is just terrible. The schools here in Wisconsin require teachers to have minor computer proficiency and give them some intro courses for it.
I don't think my computer has a PSU switch, or at least it's covered by my case so I'm safe :D

It could be auto switching.
[QUOTE=hexpunK;23423266]Piracy of a OS is probably the worst piracy possible due to the risks involved (malware, MS/ Apple getting bitchy and raising security, fucking us who bought it over). But for normal applications piracy is slightly more safe, as long s you don't follow every "LOL U kan G3t PS 4 3!!" video on YouTube, it seems.
I still don't endorse it though. There are plenty of free alternatives out there (well, video editors kind of don't have any real alternatives).[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Boris-B;23426124][B]There's not a lot of stuff that people can actually do with your ip.[/B] They can DDoS you or exploit your client.
I don't think that anyone goes and picks random seeders or peers and DDoS them.
If you do use a client with big security holes that's your problem.
The chance of getting your shit fucked up using torrents is smaller than visiting shady sites. Browsers have way bigger security holes than torrent clients. (Assuming you don't torrent the obvious fakes)[/QUOTE]
I'm sure the MPAA and RIAA would have something different to say about that statement...

How is that illiteracy? That's more like stupidity.
