Topic: Red Fokker: Death Dive

Just in case any of you are interested, or even care; My computer has finally died a most terrible death, and I can not afford a new one. I won't be able to afford one for, well, forever... or untill I finally find someone dumb enough (or decent enough) to employ me (again)... seriously, how hard can it be to grasp the simple premise that mentally ill people are only mentally ill when they don't take their meds/therapy/whatever?
Bastards.

  So anyway, this is the end of my forum activity for what could be forever. I'd write a big fat list of names to say goodbye to, but I'd only miss people out or get names wrong, and I'll probably miss pretty much all of you, so:

Thanks to everyone that I love for making me laugh, smile, or simply stop frowning.
Thanks to everyone that I hate for confirming, in your own unique way, that I am indeed the pinnacle of Human Evolution.
Special thanks to the Galactic Overseers for not having my existence erased as punishment for my occasional ranting.

And to finish, an apt quote from my own personal hero:

"Kaput"

"So, it's defeat for you, is it? Someday I must meet a similar fate..."

I simply refuse to accept it! First Skoe leaves, and now your forced away because of PC issues. Who will keep those mindless right wingers in line now?

You'll be missed Fokker! :'(

We mostly disagreed firmly, but I learned a lot from your replies non the less. I hope you come back one day. Where do you live? Maybe I can help find you a job online.

Re: Red Fokker: Death Dive

Who will pay 5 dollars for a new pc. If we can give for other reasons why not this one.

Nooooo  use the free one at the library!!!

The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.
Steve Jobs has ruined this joke.

Re: Red Fokker: Death Dive

hmmm, I don't know you but I am in a similar situation to yours Fokker, also poor and looking for a job, but believe me don't waste your cash at cybershops bcause you need it to get thru. I luckily told my gf to buy a mobile comp, one of the cheapest, with wireless lan. Now I just go down to my car parked in an area where you can get a free wireless connection, yeah it is like I am stealing internet, you can call it that way, but I don't pay a single

Re: Red Fokker: Death Dive

my old comp stops working a few weeks ago and i took it to the pc shop to get it fix. the guy there told me the motherboard is screwed and most of the hardwares in there are old and cannot be used with new motherboard. so he said he can still take a few adapters from the old comp such as wireless card and graphic card and use a new motherboard, cpu and rams, hdd and build a new comp for me at a cheap price of 600 dollars. i didnt really want it since i dont trust them and another 400 dollars will get me a reasonable pc, but my brother insist that I should accept the offer so I did and now I just can not stop cursing those basterds. the so called new pc cannot start up after only a few days. it starts up and a blue screen appears and quickly disappeared againa and ten restart and the cycle just kept on going. there is not enough time to even read what the blue screen said.

now i have to use my brother's laptop since im pretty much broke.....................................

oh and the so called old pc is not really that old anyway. its only 2-3 years old. i have 2gb ram with 4 sticks of 512mb ram. the guy siad that i can only sell them at most 5 dollars each on ebay cuz people use 1gb stick ram now. i was idiot enough to believe him without even checking it out. i had a look on ebay after i bought the comp and it turned out people are selling 512mb ram at around 40-50 australian dollar. [w00f!] dirty business they are doing and im such an idiot to believe him.

i love you all!

I seen this message bumped up and thought it was Fokker coming back to say his PC troubles are all magically fixed.

Re: Red Fokker: Death Dive

Hahaha Red Fokker I am in the same shit. If my pc dies. I have a huge problem XD. Then I have to choose: sell my car or go back to live with my parents.

Both are options that will never work XD.

You have claimed all this time that you would die for me. Why then are you so surprised to hear your own eulogy?
