For fucks sake, mum. You have been working with computers since the seventies. How can you not know a single one of your passwords?
For fucks sake, mum. You have been working with computers since the seventies. How can you not know a single one of your passwords?
Scenario #1
Parents: we will buy a new laptop
Me: buy a Mac, it’s easy and you can keep it for years
Parents: we bought the most shitty Acer/Whatever computer ever in a Walmart because the salesman was nice to us, we also bought a subscription to the shittiest antivirus ever, it says it protects our DNA or bodily fluids from the North Korean hacksters, is it good? We also bought an Office subscription even though we use it once a year
Scenario #2
Parents: we will buy a new TV
Me: don’t buy a smart TV, don’t buy Samsung, don’t buy anything more than full HD because you’re almost blind and it’s not worth it
Parents: we bought a gigantic 8K Samsung smart TV because the salesman loved us and got us a $10 coupon on that $1000 TV
Scenario #3
Parents: we will buy a new phone
Me: buy an iPhone, it’s simple
Parents: we bought the shittiest Samsung ever and it comes with an antivirus and a cloud subscription, also why is it broken all the time?

I think there’s something with age and lead poisoning that makes people short sighted, easily manipulated with emotional appeals, and short tempered.
Or maybe everyone doesn’t cuck for apple
