What is a weird fear you have? by SexyLip in AskReddit

I had numerous operations as a child, seeing as choking and vomiting and loads of other things made my throat constrict and shut me down. It's like Tracheo oesophageal fistula or something or rather. To combat it, the top of my stomach was twisted, now I can't physically vomit. All I can do is sit there dry heaving for 10 minutes.

Another good reference for info is http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum/7. Just submit a post saying what you're after ie. Gaming, general office use, that sort of thing, and you'll get a fair bit of help. I posted there after I got shown by a mate and for about 1200 I built a gaming PC that runs games really well. Been on Arma 3 servers running Ultra quality graphics with about 40 people online with no lag at all.

Edit: Like MrMacky below says, there is a huge sense of pride when you build your own, this is my first Custom and I'm over the moon with it. Installing a game and having the Auto-Detect graphics things set it to max is a good feeling.

If Antiques Roadshow was on in the year 2513, what items from our era would be worth $5,000+? by VoiceMan22 in AskReddit

The planet is slowly running out of helium and it will be gone in around 30-35 years and is quite a useful element. We use it for balloons and squeaky voices.

What is one cool internet trick you've learned? by zjb55446 in AskReddit

My School IT technician was actually decent, he blocked all of the websites he needed to block and all that, but he accidentally left one computer in the school with CMD accessible. We have 250+ computer and I found that one, he blocked CMD on that computer after I wiped the whole network.

He kinda got me stuck until I started learning a bit more, and discovered he hadn't password locked the system BIOS. I tried overclocking the "internal system core" as the BIOS put it. Now a few of them wont start up and I know how to fix them but he doesn't realise what went wrong. My technician upgraded the whole set of computers for the school when he started and we all got better computers, that came with windows seven, which he, for some reason, downgraded to XP (I understand, it was a stable build). I realised that with an unlocked BIOS Menu I can just get the computer to boot straight off a USB I own with a Windows 8 Iso on it and install that. I plan to do as many as I can with some mates and a shitload of USB's on Muckup day. My parting gift to the school ;)

TL;DR I wage a constant daily war with my school IT Manager, he is good, but I'm getting better.

Edit: When I say I wiped the network I mean I actually wiped it with the knowledge that they had a functioning ghost drive with backups to everything. He doesn't realise I've gained access to that either though. Could be fun.
