Last week one of my clients looked over my shoulder and asked me if I was on the Darknet. I was just taking notes in Sublime Text.
"You are Software Developer, please fix my TV, it's having dark screen and remote is not working"
yeah, that really happens.
"It's so frustrating talking to technology" One of the customers, after a meeting.
That is a sentiment I can co-sign.
Someone I used to work with said "they should send a message over the network to tell everyone it was down"
Haha cool! But honestly, this happens to techies too! A friend and colleague once created a VPN user for me and told me, I can read the documentation how to set up my VPN in the Wiki. Well, the Wiki was only reachable via VPN. 😅
A guy I used to work with told me to put the cap over the USB drive else it would catch a virus.
😂🤣 That's awesome 😂
My teacher actually told me something similar in high school.
Wow, that's sad 🙈
"You know computers, right?!" and then all kinds of questions about fixing all kinds of things.
LMAO 😂
Many years ago when I still programmed in Assembler, we developed anti-virus software. One of the jobs I had to do was to debug viruses to see how they hooked into memory or files, find that address and then eliminate the threat. I tried to explain this to my mom. She stood there listening as if she knew exactly what I meant. About 2 weeks later when my wife and I visited my parents again, my mother, after having thought about this thing during the previous 2 weeks, asked me where I found the virus. "Was it in Johannesburg?" She had one reference for "address" and I had a totally different one!
Haha, I wonder what she thought "eliminate the threat" meant
... or "viruses" that "hooked into memory" 🦠🧠
PURGE.
So sweet of her to really think it through rather than not keeping any of it in memory because it was over her head. She loves you.
when the system admin was trying interchanging her pc monitor with another one, then she yelled at him by saying there was a lot of data on my desktop and she needs it!
Once someone asked me, if I was hacking. I was writing an assignment with LaTeX.
😂 nice! Most people think you are a hacker if you have a text editor with a dark theme... And if you open a terminal and type
sudo apt update, their eyes become like 👀I didn't even use dark theme 😂 But that is so true! Terminal with green font and 20% opacity, if you really want to show of 😂
and then they'll ask "whats wrong with your keyboard? I saw no text when you where entering your password"
"Hey, could you make a website for me? It's easy, right?"
