Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Stupid Computer Tricks

These images are the result of 8 years in the retail computer industry - 8 years that are thankfully behind me. I used to work in the service department in a retail store of a very famous computer company (think cows...). During this time, I was able to observe (and preserve for posterity) the aftereffects of the - shall we say - "technology challenged" folks. My friends and relatives couldn't believe the stories I told - thus this collection of photos.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

DSL folks, my problem was cleared up by powering down the dsl modem for a while.

Go to that first. Restarting boxen and routers is not needed.

Um.

My dad used to do all my souping for me, but since I got a laptop I'll have to bring it somewhere.

Unfortunately, it's pretty much impossible to upgrade the video capabilities of a laptop unless you're extremely handy with a soldering iron. And maybe not even then.

In other words, no soup for you. IJS.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

It's a Flowpoint 2210.

No worky, sorry. I have one of those sitting around my house, too, btw, if anyone wants it.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

Aww, if I bring it in they can't upgrade the video card? That bites.

Stupid self, not thinking of things before I do 'em..

Our wings are not tired

The Treo 650 that I pre-ordered has arrived. The new high rez screen is amazing. Also, it has bluetooth, and with the help of a small hack I've not got it paired with my Powerbook and I can get online from the powerbook anywhere that I have a cell phone signal.

Is it possible to be too connected?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

We all hate you now.
