Why, Mom, Why?!

[edro]

If only she knew what you did with her computer when she wasn't home.

Oh and "Yo dawg! I herd you like cpu desktop pics..."

 

[Wyndru]

It prabably came with the automated adobe flash update and she didn't know to uncheck the box before hitting "next."

Limited user accounts FTW.

This.

 

[rudder]

Ah, well my mom paid for half of mine. So, she gets to do with it what she wants.

Two guestions...

do you have pics of her and does she like to cam?

I don't release pictures of my family on the internet, and no.

1. Never let others use your computer, or at least make them use it on their own, limited login;

2. Failing that, instruct all users to not download anything without asking first (even if they are trying to be helpful or are afraid of the warning that popped up); and

3. Maybe I am missing something, but why is there a shortcut to your desktop ON your desktop?

It's not a shortcut, it's an image.

I herd you like desktops, so I put a desktop on your desktop.

At least you can remove that ... and it's not the damn 2012 fake antivirus that destroys.

 

[NutBucket]

....so she has something that she can check her e-mail on, etc. She doesn't use the computer for anything that would warrant more than an average dual-core CPU with integrated graphics, 4GB of RAM and a 500GB hard drive.

LOL! My parents are using a hand-me-down P4 that they have zero complaints about. Aim lower because really there really isn't much you need THAT much power for.

 

[Joseph F]

The specs I mentioned are pretty much as bargain-basement as it gets for new components. I wouldn't get her an old rig to replace the one she has.

 

[dan4patriots]

ey where ya get that dvd decrypter? handbrake wouldnt accept my transformers dark of the moon disk

 

[ImpulsE69]

I find if you just make the desktop background hardcore porn pictures and cover the keyboard in KY, they will leave your computer alone.

 

[Mike Gayner]

The reason I stated above, and the fact that it's the only computer in the house.
I'm hoping that she will get a laptop when we get a tax refund so I can hook my rig up in my room.

Oh so it's actually her computer, not yours.

 

[SagaLore]

Wow, this is fucking retarded. Keep up the good work, America.
You think America is shitty now? Wait until your generation is in government offices.

 

[CZroe]

DVD Decrypter is extremely out-dated. AnyDVD HD + IMGBurn FTW. Sure, AnyDVD isn't free, but you never have to worry about support/updates. IMGBurn is far more than DVD Decrypter ever was even though it started out as a continuation of DVD Decrypter without the CSS decryption (same author).

 

[Joseph F]

It's really both of ours. I put a lot of money into it and so did she.

 

[JTsyo]

think this is the 2nd time I've seen this post today. It still doesn't make sense in this context.

They wont be. The illegals will take over and turn this into North Mexico. It will never be America again.

 

[SunnyD]

So it would be half hers.

I'd make sure "her half" would be running in a VM.

 

[RavenSEAL]

Wow, awesome wallpaper. Can I haz link?

Awesome, thanks!

 

[blackdogdeek]

how much did the PC cost?

 

[palswim]

I minimized my web browser this evening to my horror.

What's wrong with this picture? Oh, I know!

AAAAAAAH!!! KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!! Why put this rubbish on my brand-new 2500k-powered gaming rig?

Yeah, yeah, CSB, whatever.
Do you guys have any stories of family members putting horrendous software on your computers?

Yeah, when I was your age, I didn't see the value in partitioning my computer into separate accounts and even running as a non-administrative user because I wanted MAXX PERFORMANCEEE!!!1. But, maybe you can learn earlier that your Mom should have her own (non-administrator) account and that the performance hit doesn't matter too much.
