Do you help your family members with their technology?
>>107657192of course. you must be a total dickwipe to not help your own
>>107657192Yeah, my cousin told me his son's PC stopped booting and i told him I'd take a look at it. It was an incredibly old system, taking DDR3 and even having an RS232 port on the mobo. Idk where exactly things went wrong or if my cousin messed with it himself much but I just rebuilt the boot record as UEFI and in bios it was set to Legacy so i just changed it to UEFI and it worked
>>107657192>pihole DNS blocking on home router>ublock origin on all browsers>brave browser on mobile devices>answer the occasional "is this a scam message/email"this takes care of 99% of problems my boomer parents have with tech.
>>107657192no
>>107657192What the fuck is a bun scriptDon't tell me it's some niggerlicious wrapper for mentally disabled to write script with a toy language like js or lua.
When I younger it was a feature that you couldn't get those old snaps back, bitches freaking out if you screenshot something.
>>107657242Don't forget to make their OS accounts a standard user
i love technology!
>>107657413Bun is a JavaScript runtime like Node or Deno that you have to go out of your way to use, this fag is just pretending to be cooler than an average JavaScripter
>>107657471also dont forget to put the user account password sticker underneath the laptop
>>107657413>LuaHow dare you include the King of Glue with the peasant language of js.
>>107657192YesI automated everything so I don't have to do a squat.
at least it's not pyshit
>>107657805I mean something like py is exactly what should use for a one off script. Anything that fits into a single file (500 LoC) should be written in a scripting language. Types and other boilerplate only help you when speed and maintainability matter.
>>107657192is this dude really bragging about stealing his sister's nudesI mean that is based but also seems unwise to announce
>>107657192yeah i helped my dad get some gift cards for his tech support guy to clear up an overdeposit he did
>>107657192>33kI probably haven't made 33k posts on 4chan in the 15 years I've been here but women post that many photos on social media in like 1 year
>>107657192What's the reason for the creation of Bun script when Node.js already exists?
>>107658179Node.js sucks fucking dick and was a terrible, terrible first attempt. It just happened to be in the right place at the right time.Even the creator of node.js says people shouldn't use it anymore.
>aunt wants me to look at her computer because it's low on storage>windows 11 can't install updates>already has a small SSD, figure it's just cluttered>look at the desktop, photos, videos>everything not necessary has been deleted >notice she has Norton antivirus>check out sub folders>20+GBs worth of files in the /DEFS folderCleared out a lot of the older definitions and was able to help her. You would think that an antivirus would just keep updated definitions and delete ones past a certain date, especially ones that are years old. Maybe a cyber security anon can weigh in, but I've never heard of any other antivirus accumulating that much space on a computer.
I want to buy my parents a new phone and transfer everything but I'm scared to look through their phone because I know they both have dirty phones, dad has feet pics and random screenshots of social media thots and my mom has gore/rekt type content saved. How do I navigate this bros
>>107657242>go over and press insert when someone accidentally turns on overtypeYou forgot this.
>>107657212Sounds like you've never had to help someone who's actually incompetent at tech. If they're past a certain age and haven't already gotten some level of familiarity with this stuff, they often just check out mentally and try to prod you into doing pretty much everything for them.
>>107657192I've helped my parents. No other family is nearby.
>>107658551Dawg I would want to see that shit. I'm finna be giving my dad elite comms while he's gooning. No cap.
>>107657192>hacked togetheryou just know this nigger didn't do shit and copy pasted llm code>Do you help your family members with their technology?unless your family is using old windows laptops, what could they possibly need help with? The only time I have been asked for help is 70yo+ people who can't get their Roku working but otherwise have no issue with ipads and iphones.
>>107657192So this feminized cuck made a program to collect his sisters nudes which she sent to every boy in town over the course of her highschool years?
>>107657192No. I hate technology. I'm only a programmer because it is the least objectionable job I could find.
