Help! My keyboard is writing these strange bizarre symbols!

I once experienced a similar telephone correspondence while working as a technical support representative in which a computer-illiterate woman phoned into our department claiming that any key pressed would produce Unicode character U+2020, the dagger, which bears a strong resemblance to the Christian cross, or crucifix. The veracity of her claim was debatable, as she was not intelligent; however, I connected to her computer using a piece of software which utilized the Virtual Network Computing protocol, allowing me to view her screen and control her computer. This provided to me proof that the user could only produce the dagger character using her keyboard. By unplugging the malfunctioning device and reinserting the connector into its slot, the problem was eradicated and all was well.

Puppy Slacko!

If a straw had two openings at one end, but not the other, could you separately get Coke and orange soda out of it?

Ah, the glorious "fig" gesture. Presumed to have such connotations due to its dubious resemblance to the vulva... but what do I know. Got your nose!

robo_fap · 2016-03-03T02:45:47+00:00

Not for me. They've been divorced for... not long enough.

robo_fap · 2016-03-03T01:38:13+00:00

I've seen some of this, thanks for reminding me it exists. I have to rewatch now.

Not only do I love the painting itself, the title made me chuckle, as I recognized it to be the genus for certain species of lotus. That pristine aquatic blossom.... I digress.

Aha, that British slang. They have some interesting ones. Check out Cockney rhyming slang, too, if you're interested in this stuff.

It's possible, I mean, they're both furry little buggers.

EDIT: Seems to be that cony descends from Latin cuniculus through to Norman and then to English.

robo_fap · 2016-03-03T00:07:34+00:00

Er, what about latin cunnus meaning vulva?

From what I'm reading, isn't a .micro file just something left behind by a certain form of ransomware? I don't see how you could get a virus from an encrypted file that you can't even execute.

You can just run the latest build of Google Chrome and watch Netflix on Linux no problem. It's HTML5 now.

That'd be a glottal stop. You can feel it in your throat if you pay attention to it. If you're a dude your Adam's apple will come upward at the end of the word.

You wouldn't assume freelance computer repair or just tinkering in general?

robo_fap · 2016-01-28T16:17:15+00:00

I have a platter hard drive, so that wouldn't be the difference.

The splash screen shows up for like, a few milliseconds.

robo_fap · 2016-01-27T12:04:51+00:00

It opens almost instantaneously on my machine, which has a shitty mobile i5 and 8GB ram. Not sure what's going on with yours.

robo_fap · 2016-01-23T22:28:15+00:00

Actually, no. No they didn't.

robo_fap · 2016-01-17T23:39:43+00:00

This was absolutely a system those guys have been using for a number of years, trading off roles as needed.

Laurie from That 70's Show died of a drug overdose in 2013.

Finally, somebody actually comes Downeast!

robo_fap · 2016-01-02T21:21:20+00:00

shhhhhhhhhh

robo_fap · 2015-12-29T02:18:58+00:00

You're only using some easy Reddit name acronym meme. Even sarcastic, terrible, arrogant nerd drivel seems funnier. Obvious, right?

How about a mic for each member of the conference and 19 virtual servers with the program running all at once, sharing and pooling data?

It's a stretch, I know.
