Fop 1 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Christ, it's not basic you fucking dweeb. It's maybe basic if you're interested in computing. I like playing on the internet. That's all. Aha! You know that, FOR GREAT JUSTICE!!!! So do you know how to adjust the tappets on an engine? In theory I guess so, although in practice I wouldn't. But knowing a bit about your OS isn't at the same level as say solder moding your CPU (which is about the same level as you're talking about in car ownership), more like checking your oil and at least having a vague idea what oil does for it. Nah, the equivalent in computer ownership to checking your oil would be running a spyware checker or defragmenting the hard drive. Not knowing the ins and outs of the operating system. Nah, that's just knowing you should lock it and have an alarm and immobiliser installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fop 1 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I took my computer to a professional repair shop somewhere in Forest Hall and they made a complete balls up of what was a trivial problem. And I was daft enough to give them £50 for the trouble. (directed to Ally - http://www.toontastic.net/forum/index.php?...t&p=299656) Is it the shop run by Dennis? I know him. I wouldn't trust him to fix me a cheese sandwich tbh. Blatant sour grapes by fop in this thread btw. Aye it's true that grapes could be soured by this level of ignorance. Do you seriously think anyone cares? Apart from you and Craig. Does it matter? A lone candle in the darkness. (and clearly people do care or there'd not have been this many replies tbh) Totally delusional! Ah now you're caring. Are you taking the piss fop btw? I hope you are. How very dare you!

Hmm.... good point, maybe vague car analogies don't exactly fit the circumstances, who'd have thought. Although broadly speaking all "PC" same generation based CPUs do operate in the same way (even Macs now too of course), or at least not in as different a way as the above example. There are other CPUs that would definitely fit that though. Is Fop any relation to Renton btw? “I am your father, Luke….” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
