"Hackers tend to dress in bright, day-glo colors. They may wear baggy pants, bright colored shirts and spiky hair dyed in bright colors to match their clothes. They may take to carrying "glow-sticks" and some wear pacifiers around their necks."
Umm...that sounds more like a raver than a hacker to me. |

I read this a while ago. I seem to remember, but don't quote me on this, because I cannot find it again, that it was written by some magazine writer as a joke, to show the gullibility of people who were "technically challenged", while giving anyone who knows more than how to flip the power switch on a few laughs.
It was meant to be seen as an obvious joke by some, but taken seriously by the people who do stupid stuff like forward email chainletters, and have no idea what linux is, so that the people "in the know" ended up getting two laughs for the price of one.
But, like I said, don't quote me on that, I can't find the article again. If I do, I'll post it here.
Maybe it was all a gas-fume induced hallucination.

...And possibly as funny...I can't view the page (at work) b/c the web page contains "Hate Speech". |

Oh my. I think my brain hurts. Sure, I used to use some numbers instead of l3tt3rs...but how could you follow that?
Anywho, I can just see some goof parent writing all this down & then checking out their kid's convos from the spyware progs & trying to see what their kid is up to. |

I am truly shocked. I never knew I was a paid hacker!!!! My computer here at work is a tool of evil. How could I have been sooo blinded to the specialty pharmacy front. I must be working for a multi million dollar company that is into drugs and stealing peoples information, annd I have helped them do this. I knew those meetings were doing brain washing of sometype. They asked me to get competitor info to see where we stand in the market. OH MY GOD, I was spying, for shame. When they told me that I was salesman of the month, that must of been Hacker talk, saying I was the BEST hacker!!!! If I get fired, the only people that will hire me is the federal government. |

Actually, Bonzi Buddy and Comet Cursor are spyware, which can be used by the hackers that created them to get passwords and bank account information. |

And I'm not talking about the spyware used by parents to monitor their children. The bad kind. |

Your only a hacker if your also a raver! No exceptions!
😊 This is such an obvious hoax, and it's a very funny one.

One thing i would like to say about that article, if you believe any of the shit in that, you are a damn moron. Thank god most of you here dont believe it, if not all of you. Hackers are not usually that different from normal ppl, they are not usually all nerds, some are married, have girlfriends, have great social lifes, so none of that bullshit is true. Man I only wish i had his IP address hehe |

If your son has requested a new "processor" from a company called "AMD", this is genuine cause for alarm. AMD is a third-world based company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor chips. They use child labor extensively in their third world sweatshops, and they deliberately disable the security features that American processor makers, such as Intel, use to prevent hacking. AMD chips are never sold in stores, and you will most likely be told that you have to order them from internet sites. Do not buy this chip! This is one request that you must refuse your son, if you are to have any hope of raising him well.
Come on who the hell could possibly take this guy seriously? Am I a hacker? could be. Do I use an AMD? yup. does intel prevent hacking? lol, NO. and what does he mean never sold in store? I have bought many AMDs in a wait for it STORE. what a moron. |

dud this is the biggest shit i ever heard i think this guy only wants to make publicity of microsoft ans intle may b coz he personly like it but this is i shit for sure.
"" If you see the word "LILO" during your windows startup (just after you turn the machine on), your son has installed lunix. In order to get rid of it, you will have to send your computer back to the manufacturer, and have them fit a new hard drive. Lunix is extremely dangerous software, and cannot be removed without destroying part of your hard disk surface. ""
i use linux and i can remove it any time this is real crap dud..... |
