Yeah, of course I do! Most of the time I'm honestly afraid to say something back because I don't want to seem rude or anything. I know that it's an argument, and I just don't want to say anything that provokes the other person more.
I'll argue with people, discourse is kinda fun, but if I wanted to talk to a teacher about a grade or something of that sort I'd probably talk myself into not doing it.

I'm gonna set up 2 virtual machines. One for Windows access on Linux and one for making into a massive cringe.
Honestly, the reason why I set up a virtual machine was just to install viruses on it, and slowly watch it get destroyed by malware, viruses, and bonzi buddy.
It's actually pretty fun. Though, it seems like if you're actually looking for viruses and malware, you have a hard time finding them.
On a side note, apparently there are malware and virus packs that are basically zip files with viruses, malware, worms, trojans, ransomeware, etc, that are for educational purposes.
I actually downloaded a pack on my virtual machine, and it turns out, that, from what I understand, they are all password encrypted to keep them all contained.
How does the virus on the virtual machine not affect your actual PC?
I'm not actually too sure. I know that it won't though.
My best guess would be that the creators of virtual box considered that some people would want to do what I'm doing, and install a bunch of malware. So, they probably made it so that each virtual machine you create keeps viruses inside of it, and stops them from leaking out into your real PC.
I have no idea if that's the case, though. Like I said, that's just my best guess.
The off topic is the only place I missed on this forum. I honestly can't stand all the little kids and staff neglecting this section by the looks of it.
Wait. this section of the forum has been neglected? Why? I'd assume it's smaller than the rest of the forum, honestly.
Staff aren't really posting much in this section. They took stuff away from the community in this section. Just because it's smaller, doesn't mean it needs to be left in the dark. With out this section this forum would be full of little kids and cancerous family friendly material and censorship. It's partially why I am quitting outside of this thread basically.
Huh. That makes sense. But, what do you mean that they took stuff away from the community in this section? Did they remove a sub-section or something?
Yes. They took away a section called PPNS, about 2 years ago. Even though it was basically anarchy and flame wars. It made this off topic section more active, look what is going on now. Partially because of the staff's actions. They don't even contribute to this off topic section as much as they used to. On a side note, I wish I could revert time back to 2015 and stop myself from being a retard in 2015.
I think I remember that section. I think I actually posted there once.
Sad to see it gone, but it's their decision. Honestly, they should have had a site wide poll or something, to let the users decide weather or not to trash it, or keep it.
They got rid of swear words some years ago and it caused quite a spat with some of the regulars here.
Oh well, you gotta cater to the majority demographic and their parents.
Honestly, I can kinda see why they would do that.
At the same time, it seems kinda dumb that they would do that. Though, I've noticed people using minor swear words, and not get in trouble. Are there some ok swear words or something?
Same. Is there something/tool I could use to see what these forums looked like in the past with all the posts/threads? Like you would type in a date and see how the forum looked like in a past date or something. I saw it before I don't remember the name. It was posted before, I just don't remember the thread.
The Wayback Machine could be what you're thinking of.
I think they should have a system where swear words would be allowed but the user would be warned/banned if he/she used them to insult others or something like that.
I think there should be something like that, as well. With certain limits. For instance, racial slurs wouldn't be allowed to be said or something.
I can't wait to boot up that Crush thread I had again. And the other stuff is coming... Besides the trolling and spam threads. But it is really slow and doesn't allow me to see threads, if there is a better tool, let me know.
From what I know of, I think that could be the only tool that lets you do that.
I think how it works is that, people submit the page on a date, and it would be archived. The site itself doesn't archive pages. Users of it do. So, people may not have submitted the threads.
"Page cannot be displayed due to robots.txt." Is what comes up.
Yeah, it may not be archived, then. That's what I usually assume when that pops up. From what I know of, there might not be any way to get to it, then.
This is one of the first things I did once I got my virtual machine up and running

Send. Help.

I could imagine that they would be really useful if you don't jam pack it full of malware.
I don't know how it could it be useful. All I know is that they would be useful, if that makes any sense.
Do you really need a virtual machine for that?
Wait for time
In the break of new dawn
We will never meet
Ah, I think I see what you mean, now.
On a side note, apparently there are malware and virus packs that are basically zip files with viruses, malware, worms, trojans, ransomeware, etc, that are for educational purposes.
I actually downloaded a pack on my virtual machine, and it turns out, that, from what I understand, they are all password encrypted to keep them all contained.
I think that's actually pretty cool, in a way.
I'm not actually too sure. I know that it won't though.

Well, unless you count getting your credit card info stolen as illness, then nope.
I heard that a new chat thread was up, so I came back.
Simple as that.
Plus, I kinda missed this place, and was looking for an excuse to be more active here.

I think I do.
