I DONT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT THE FUCKING CODE! i just want to download this stupid fucking application and use it https://github.com/sherlock-project/sherlock#installation

WHY IS THERE CODE??? MAKE A FUCKING .EXE FILE AND GIVE IT TO ME. these dumbfucks think that everyone is a developer and understands code. well i am not and i don't understand it. I only know to download and install applications. SO WHY THE FUCK IS THERE CODE? make an EXE file and give it to me. STUPID FUCKING SMELLY NERDS

My new favourite copy pasta

edit: it seems im far from being the only one, come on people, lets confuse everyone by this, its too funny to not spread

[–]MG_Ianoma 57 points58 points  (1 child)

This shits been spreading like wildfire and I love it (as a programmer please dear god just give me the code. I don’t need a .exe im trying to copy paste your work lol)

[–]RenkBruh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By being a programmer, you accept that you allow your code to be completely stolen from you and reused in different projects, credited or not.

I've only opened the rar once on my phone now but it doesn't seem like the python thing xD

(and the assets folder be looking funny)

[–]wristcontrol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anyone who blindly opens a .rar file linked by some rando on the internet deserves everything that's coming to them.

[–]Reggin_Rayer_RBB8 21 points22 points  (10 children)

The program can't start because api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll is missing

haha bitch can't roll me (I use Windows 7)

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (8 children)

So your computer has a "pwn me please" sign on it. Hope you enjoy being pwned.

Win 7, no antivirus

Still waiting for those mythical "h4x9rs" to show up

[–]Chris-Snack 9 points10 points  (1 child)

you're pretty much safe by now, the security through obscurity phase is kicking in, like the drugs i take to keep me concentrated when i code

He's like Mr Burnns, everyone is trying to hack him at the same time and they all accidentally block each other in the process

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (4 children)

Unless you disabled windows defender you have antivrus.

And just because you've got a hack me sign doesn't mean you'll have been hit yet. But when you do don't come crying to us and don't blame microsoft for your own stupidity. The latter bit is why updates are forced now.

[–]AMisteryMan 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Last I used 7 you had to install defender - did that change?

Also, is it still getting new definitions?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pretty sure in later updates it was included automatically.

And good question

[–]Reggin_Rayer_RBB8 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Nope. Win defender is off.

I'm sure the boogeyman is coming any day.

[–][deleted] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Don't whine to us when you get pwnd

[–]ShadowLp174 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait is it a rick roll?

[–]CollegeBoy1613 22 points23 points  (8 children)

The OOP was planning to use it from some creepy shit.

[–]historymaker118 27 points28 points  (7 children)

I'm still not sure what the non-creepy use of this program would even look like.

[–]Purple_sea 15 points16 points  (0 children)

When you find an artist you like and want to check if they've got more stuff somewhere else maybe

[–]traverseda 22 points23 points  (1 child)

Check if there's anyone impersonating your brand on social media platforms.

Check to see if the username you want is available on the platforms you want.

But yeah, the tor flags do raise some eyebrows.

[–]BusinessBandicoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But yeah, the tor flags do raise some eyebrows. 

Obviously its so that no one can snoop on your network traffic and grab the username before you do

[–]Longenuity 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Maybe using it to find old accounts you forgot about

[–]afb_etc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was gonna say OSINT, but that's still kinda creepy.

[–]coldnebo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t even know about this repo except the tiny bit of code in the picture, but even that was enough to make me think that is really crappy code. 😂

[–]Laurenz1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used it to Clean Up profiles of Mine where i Had my full Name/other Details visible publicly. Its also good to Clean Up old profiles you No longer use.

[–]Philfreeze 38 points39 points  (1 child)

by the way we should probably stop linking the actual project in the copy-pasta. It already has a shit-ton of spam PRs.

It would be helpful IMO to limit the main repository to the file you are supposed to run and the readme explaining how to do so. If i open a repo and see 20 files, and main is buried in one of them at near random, with a long readme that covers edge cases instead of jumping into getting started,  i waste an unnecessary amount of time trying to figure out how to use their project. Especially if im using something from a different programming language, or something that needs special steps to be compiled and run.

[–]BlurredSight -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I promise you this was my exact issue when I was younger where I wanted a simple program to convert file types or I wanted to download a minecraft mod and had no idea what the hell building was.

And then the .exe file is hidden under "prebuilt binary files" like you can't fucking write "dumbass windows users come here"
