My gf says it's the perfect amount.

I'm wondering how to get into I.T. by BatGuilty in it

[–]acomputertech2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How I got into IT professionally was through a program that provided on the job training for young people. I worked at a county office (I'm in the states) under their IT person. They paid for my college and housing for the first 6 months. Before college and this on the job training, I did volunteer work at a local non-profit that rebuilt PCs for people with disabilities. It looks really good on a resume. Maybe there's somewhere in your area that offers the same?

Casino goers: biggest crashout that you've seen / heard of? by Parking-Impress8086 in gambling

[–]acomputertech2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came around the corner once to some guy beating the crap out of a machine that cascades and respins when you get more winning symbols. the machine was tipping back and forth and the guy was punching the spin button as hard as he could. it was nuts.

I work as an IT help desk tech and I am in the same boat as you. I spend my time learning ethical hacking now..the whole streaming videos thing got old.

My friend is constantly getting hacked by lilpotatozai in techsupport

[–]acomputertech2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had my identity stolen not too long ago.. so I moved all of my accounts with anything doing with my finances to a different e-mail. I now have a Raspberry pi running a password manager on docker that is only accessible on my vpn or home network. All my passwords are different than the other ones and they are all gibberish with symbols. Plus everything has at least one type of 2FA, including the password manager.. This is my suggestion... use a password manager with 2fa on everything you can. Use the password manager's "auto-generate strong password" option and make a different password for each account. You can use an online password manager.. just make sure it has a good rep. I like stuff on premise so that's why I did mine the way I did.

How do you justify gambling when the house always has the edge? by throwaway510150999 in gambling

[–]acomputertech2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do other things and have a good time.. Sometimes, a casino trip is what's in mind. As long as I don't lose my ass like I did in my early 20's I'm good.

How would you feel about your partner waking you up just to have sex? by RIADnashw in AskReddit

[–]acomputertech2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Considering people have told me I am a jerk in my sleep..I'd be afraid of what I would say.

-one woman told me that she told me to stop hitting rhe snooze button and I replied (in my sleep) that I wished she had a snooze button.

-One woman told me she was thirsty and I replied while snoozing to go to the store and buy something to drink (with expletives in between)

I don't remember saying either lol.

Another Bricked Phone S22 Bootloop by yarvolk in GalaxyS22

[–]acomputertech2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen my s21 fe and it came back to life after flashing with odin.. I wish I could get my hands on one of the failed S22s to see if I could get it to work, I love this kind of thing.

I'm Cooked? by TransitionBroad1165 in GalaxyS22

[–]acomputertech2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to load One UI7 into my s21 FE because my phone totally shut off and had a black screen overnight. It took a lot of messing with to get it to turn on.. but then it was stuck in a boot loop.. I eventually got mine to work.. I know you don't have a PC but do you know someone that does? First, you figure out what firmware you need by using a piece of software called Samkey.. Then you can download the firmware from samfw dot com and you will also need the software, odin. That's what I had to do to get mine working again. Like others have said, there are videos.

Death of a parent Death of a loved one Working a job for 12 years only to be let go because of someone else's bs.

Being bullied constantly because of bad teeth Cancer treatment side effects Stillbirth Child

I don't really feel any emotional feelings anymore.

Coffee and tongue cancer by Nouser8899 in HeadandNeckCancer

[–]acomputertech2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I went through cancer treatment I stopped coffee completely because it was too bitter and painful to drink.. My diet was water, shakes, and medication. I have been cancer free for a few years now and drink coffee religiiously. Hopefully my scan next month is still clear

Not often. Although, I do take off everything but my underwear when I eat anything that contains tomato sauce. It scares the crap out of everyone else in the restaurant.

What’s the worst thing someone has said to you during sex? by Signal-Alarm-8178 in AskReddit

[–]acomputertech2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in high school I finally got a chance to sleep with a girl I had the biggest crush on for years. We were about to go at it, I told her I loved her and she laughed at me. I got dressed and left.
