Comment Lovecraftian horror. (Score 0, Troll) 125

I spent almost two months trying to diagnose and fix this.

I reinstalled, tried to wipe the mbr and disk with zeroes, tried to reset CMOS on my stationary pc (try that on a fucking laptop)...

Since I depended on my laptop for my internship...missing work, using my limited resources(read medicine) trying to fix what i though to be fixable, to salvagable, to dear god give me another bottle of Grouse!

I installed both Avast and Malwarebyte(yes they worked together) some years ago...but somehow they didnt catch the wild changes in the registry, every location for programs was replaced with an CLSID exploiting that fucking virtualisation hack windows provided.
That and Alternative Data Streams....JESUS CHRIST!

I had internal winsock commands that came from absolute NOWHERE!

Im not an expert.....Im happy for people to call me mad and/or idiot.

But when a fresh install of Ubuntu decides to include every fucking packagea that includes virtualisation solutions....

"If I am mad, it is mercy! May the gods pity the man who in his callousness can remain sane to the hideous end!”

I have two laptops (one Ive sent to repair begging them to nuke every fucking ROM from space), the other overheats withing 30 minutes and my stationary...everything got certs I cant trust for shit.

Again, Am i dense? Have I panicked for nothing and led myself astray by red herrings? (This is not meant to be a tech support plea, just sort of...retorical)

Which is funny because initially Lobsters were considered quite "unappetizing", and what was caught was grounded up into dog food.
It was not until recently( late 19th century that or such) that it began to grow in demand for the high diners.

But yeah, I read an article about researchers researching exactly bugs for human consumption....and you now what, in a tortilla...it all looks good.

"Audience: Everybody interested in German party organizing, BIEM-protected musicians, or plainly everybody interested in why GEMA seems to suffer from its own fee structure.

Whenever GEMA is topic or involved, you seem to hear statements like, It‘s just fucked up that the situation exists.“ But what is it with GEMA? Why does it seem to be such a bad organization, even in comparison with sibling members of BIEM? Netpoet gives insights into what GEMA does, into fee structures, and why, when it comes to handling GEMA, even GEMA seems to struggle.""
