Can you stop seeking for my attention? It's Flooder Steve Carroll's problem and he has to want to deal with it. Obviously he would rather lie than face reality. What RonB does is certainly faster. You purchased it and did extensive testing and your "extensive experience" lead you to that assumption, proving what? So he changed his story to RonB responding to him. - Puppy Videos http://www.5z8.info/horse-slaughter_w8c4en_launchexe Jonas Eklundh Communication AB

Hopefully whatever caused the problem last time is gone. Since I bought a few programs, I install them first (regardless of whether I am using them) before I make an image of my installation. Since I paid good money for MakeMKV for instance, I made sure that it was installed on Windows before I made a quick image with which to restore my PC if ever something goes wrong. Considering it only takes four minutes to back this thing up to my external SSD, I don't really have an excuse. With Linux, admittedly, most software is in repositories so if you use something like LibreOffice regularly, you don't have to worry about holding onto the license key and getting it activated because that kind of garbage is never an issue. Of course, some great software ONLY exists as proprietary software and requires purchase, a license AND activation but if people can get around that somehow, they should. -- SilverSlimer Minds: @silverslimer

A sucking vacuum of ideas, magnified by the reciprocal of a limitless imagination, demonstrating the vast nothingness of Larry Washington's so-called thought process. It's a never ending saga, and Larry Washington is simultaneously a master at off-the-cuff trolling remarks, while posting with socks with a myriad of tells.

Marek admitted Carroll repeatedly asked him to lie:
Marek <NPWdnVgF_NwsozXEnZ2dnUU7-YvNnZ2d@giganews.com>:
-----
When I first tried to broker peace between you [Steve Carroll] and
Snit, you emailed me over and over again asking be to lie about
Glasser.
-----
And then Marek later admitted he DOES lie, but claimed he does it simply because it pleases him to do so:
Marek <keCdnc7hoMqpfy3EnZ2dnUU7-YHNnZ2d@giganews.com>:
-----
| Why do you post your attacks and insults and lies if not to please
| the herd?
I do it to please me, Snit.
-----
Whatever his reason for lying, even Marek admits he lies and attacks and insults.

Now let's see, who knows C++, is a programmer, has hacked Steven Carroll's account, has motive and is a gigantic conniption-fit throwing toddler who, when he is quoted lying, posts endless nonsense even when he's *not* flooding... AND... who tries to pin everything _he_ is doing on "anyone he can" and has for his whole life? Sockboy claims to be the scripting-expert. Let's see him put up an example without the normalization routines. Steven Carroll will leave once the waters are overfished. That and there will forever be a mentally unstable element or more in an unmoderated ng (hello Sockboy). The current tantrum aside, we've all seen who routinely gets angry when he does not get a catch on his hook. Can emoticons be concatenated into a string with a logical connection to the "real" world; that is the question posed recently by those astonished at the non-stop flood of gibberish from trolls and basement-dwelling ultra-cranks. Now that Steven Carroll realized how effective Sockboy is at portraying himself as the 'target' he sees this isn't quite as crazy as it was claimed. It was Sockboy who was publicly asking how better to post his flooding. - E-commerce Simplified http://www.5z8.info/trojan_p4g1zy_how-to-skin-a-gerbil http://www.5z8.info/add-worm_z4r9qk_fakelogin https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100012978552519 Jonas Eklundh Communication AB

Annoying stuff to say the least. This clown is an idiot. He admitted he knows nothing about Windows so it puzzles me why you continue to stroke him? Look, the machine obviously has hardware problems that are exacerbating the issue. Couple that with a person who is shot gunning trying to fix the Windows software issues and it quickly turns into a nightmare. If the fool doesn't have the balls to call HP and ask them to fix it, why bother with him? It's obvious that he is using his one off horror story to denigrate Windows yet he still can't produce any data showing Linux to be superior.. Heck, even his own family won't run Linux. Why not let this fool languish instead of associating yourself with an idiot and thus ruining your own reputation? Bottom line, this RonB clown is an idiot.

I've seen this type of Linux advocate many times before. It's not so much that he is bitter as it is he is trying so hard to convince himself that Linux is somehow better. When he looks at his family and friends who won't go near Linux it just infuriates him and his hate boils up into a frenzy at which point he turns into a bitter, hateful person. The net of it is, he tries in vain to convince himself that Linux is superior for him but when he looks at the Windows pool of applications he realizes he is screwing himself. Most people, at this point, are smart enough to move on but some, like this fool RonB, continue to play the game. All in good time.

They are on fire for Linux but when confronted with the obvious question which is how does Linux improve your computing experience, once they move past repositories, source code and the open source community, they all fall apart. As an example I was at a symposium last month which was dedicated to showing how Linux could be integrated into corporations and thus replacing expensive Microsoft software. The Linux presenter was very knowledgeable however he fell apart when some kid in the audience asked some kind of graphics question and how Linux would handle it. Several other Linux advocates tried to come to the rescue but it was pitiful. Final answer from the Linux team was "well you have the source code, build your own solution, you can't do that with Windows".. Problem was Windows already did the function. The whole thing was pathetic. >> When he looks at his family and friends who won't go near Linux it just >> infuriates him and his hate boils up into a frenzy at which point he turns >> into a bitter, hateful person. > > See, bitter. :) He has problems. >> The net of it is, he tries in vain to convince himself that Linux is >> superior for him but when he looks at the Windows pool of applications he >> realizes he is screwing himself.

Ever. I 've been asking Linux advocates for years to show me what Linux does better for them. They don't. They can't. It's the same old tune, software repositories, source code and so forth. Stuff nobody gives a shit about.

Cute trick... To the guy who hacked my Google account.
-----
No details. Seems to treat it as a joke.
Carroll, 4/10/2015 5:02 PM, <https://goo.gl/51rsmZ>:
-----
Email Hacking Is A Serious Crime
-----
No longer "cute"... now it is a serious crime. OK.
Carroll, 4/10/2015 5:07 PM:
By now he is posting more links to how serious this crime against him is.
Carroll, 4/10/2015 7:25 PM:
-----
I didn't write that.
-----
Now he is denying the posts from his own account. OK, he was "hacked". Someone else posted this. Hard to hack a gmail account given how they use two-step authentication and someone would need access to his phone or the like... but at least POSSIBLE.
Even then, though, if someone tries to guess your password Google alerts you and lets you know what IP address and other info. I know because someone in a Denver internet cafe has tried mine on several occasions.
Google even forces you to change your password when this happens. Very hard to hack these days.
So already Carroll's story is unlikely.
But let us accept it... someone somehow hacked his account bypassing the two step verification. This person did not, however, change his password and Carroll posted within an hour of the "hacker". Before that, unless he is an idiot, he changed his password and the "hacker" was locked out. The "hacker" got one post in.
But Carroll could not leave his story there.
Carroll, 4/10/2015 8:36 PM, <https://goo.gl/NJ2bMH>:
-----
Someone hacked my fretwizzer gmail acct so, for the time being,
don't trust anything from it.
-----
Wait. What? Even after Carroll figured out this "hacker" who was too stupid to change his password had broken into his account and Carroll *surely* must have changed his own password, he is saying the "hacker" might still have access. Might be able to break Google's two-step verification process *again*.
This is *very* unlikely... to the point of being unbelievable.
Even worse for him: he notes which of his accounts he is claiming was hacked - but in the past he has denied even using the other accounts! LOL! He screwed up and made it very clear he has multiple accounts and felt the need to note which one. He made the same mistake in the next quote where he speaks of WHICH of his gmail accounts he is claiming was hacked. Oops! If he only posts with one there would be no need to specify which one!
He has completely screwed up in his game to pretend he posts with only one gmail account. Completely idiotic of him, too!
Carroll, 4/10/2015 8:38 PM, <https://goo.gl/YA7gMO>:
-----
Some mentally deficient child hacked my 'fretwizzer' gmail account
so I may have to kill it. For the time being, don't assume
anything that's coming from it was written by me.
-----
He is still saying that he may have to kill the account instead of just changing the password which anyone with half a brain would have already done (and Google *forces* you to do when someone even tries to hack your account... I know because someone in the Denver area has tried to hack mine multiple times... likely Carroll but I have no proof of this). And he specifies WHICH of his accounts! He is directly admitting he uses more than one account! His claim of being "forged" with his second account is a lie. Proved.
Carroll, 4/10/2015 8:40 PM, <https://goo.gl/j6yCuV>:
-----
Looks like it's still being hacked despite me taking precautions,
I may have to kill the account.
-----
What makes it look like its still being hacked? And what precautions other than changing the two-step verification options does he need? And how would someone bypass this... is he really on the NSA watch list? Seems you would need someone at that level to be doing this. He watches too much TV where they computer hackers spend thirty seconds and bypass all security.
Just nonsense.
Carroll, 4/11/2015 12:05 PM:
-----
Apparently Google is having issues with their accounts to the
point where they're ready to undertake some additional measures.
-----
But, of course, no evidence of this... and what measures? They already alert users if someone else tries to guess your password and use two-step authentication and even force you to make a new password if it seems someone is trying to hack you.
-----
They're now involving several federal agencies in things they
didn't bother with previously in an effort to deal with people who
hack into accounts. They've asked me to leave the account open.
-----
So now Google is letting Carroll know how they are handling these things - and asking him to leave a *hacked* account open... one someone can be using to steal his identity. No. This does not pass the sniff test in any way. Even if they were doing this for some bizarre sting operation, which is in itself far fetched, they would have told Carroll to not make it public information so the hacker would not know.
Just insanity. His own story is so idiotic and full of idiotic claims it simply cannot be true. Carroll uses his secondary Google account - the one he accesses via Tor and is referred to as his Tor account - to have plausible deniability for things he says there. Now he is working to do the same thing with his main account. Maybe Carroll read a report like this: <http://cnnmon.ie/111QeT8> [money.com]. If so he missed the part where they note if you are *really* hacked, which is rare, the hackers change your password and lock you out. Why would they not?
-----
There's some new legislation that will help them deal with this
issue... which probably means more BS for us ;)
-----
Yes, new legislation to make sure Carroll does not have to deal with "hackers" and "forgers" which do not even exist.
The funny part is, this happened shortly after someone in the Denver area, likely Carroll, tried to guess *my* passwords and they did it from an Internet café (Google tells you the IP and that can be used to trace back).
My guess: Carroll is the one who was working to guess my password and figured this new lie of his was a good way to deny his own words even more than he does with his Tor account *and* a way to make it so if I had talked about him trying to hack my account he could say I was just copying his comments. "Proving" I read his posts... which for now I am to see how absurd his lies are. :)
Carroll, 4/11/2015 12:25 PM:
-----
The person who hacked into my Gmail acct. changed the wording on
this post. I've removed the others but Google asked me to leave
one standing for some odd reason.
-----
Here Carroll claims the hacker changed the wording on a post of his from *before* he had even claimed he was hacked. So this hacker not only can *post* for him but edit his old Usenet posts.
I call utter bullshit on this. Out and out lie from Carroll. And then Carroll says Google asked him to not delete these "hacked" posts... this is nonsense. Why would Google want him to leave forged posts in the public and why would Google not just keep their own copy? Even Carroll notes it is for "some odd reason" - yeah, because Carroll is telling stories that make *no* sense at all.
Carroll is lying. Maybe there is some kernel of truth to his stories? Even if so - and frankly it is unlikely he will ever show any evidence to back his claims - the details he is posting are absurd.
Carroll, 4/11/2015 2:10 PM:
-----
And he's so high he thinks people still have to manually enter all
their passwords in whenever they want to use anything that's been
password protected ;)
-----
Nobody had suggested, hinted, implied, or said anything like what Carroll says they did.
Maybe his story will be someone stole his laptop (or mobile device) and he had his passwords saved? If so why not have the device deactivated remotely? Why has he not said anything about this?
My guess: he realizes he screwed up when trying to guess my passwords and is now building a story so he can say his computer was stolen and it was not him. Or, LOL, maybe someone broke into his house and did it.
This unknown hacker knew he was obsessed with me and carried on acting like him. Makes complete sense, eh?
Carroll, 4/12/2015 8:45 AM, <https://goo.gl/KMf4pa>:
-----
The first one, that has since been deleted. My bad for having such
a feeble password on this account.
-----
Now he suggests it was merely from someone guessing his password - which contradicts his above insinuations that it could have been from a saved password on a device he had.
His story changes with the telling.
But as noted, when someone tries to guess your password Google has ways to deal with it. I know - Carroll or someone in his neck of the woods recently tried it with me.
Carroll, 4/12/2015 9:29 AM:
-----
The account in question here is a gmail account. Contrary to
Snit's delusions, I have no idea what a TOR account looks like but
it's a good bet it doesn't bear much of a resemblance to a gmail
account.
-----
Here Carroll plays stupid and pretends that if when he or anyone uses the Tor browser *Carroll* pointed to this somehow changes the way the gmail interface looks. Um, no. Worse it might do is make Google think you are in another country and you would have to set it back to English. But the basic look stays the same.
He is playing stupid and pretending to not know how the Tor browser he pointed to works. Just idiotic of him.
-----
That idiocy aside, I love how Snit has repeatedly, for years,
feigned ignorance about gmail accounts, yet, he keeps disclosing
info that proves he knows about them. Some fools do stuff like
this when they believe people are as stupid as the fool needs them
to be ;)
-----
I do not think Google would allow you to edit your Usenet / groups posts but I do not use it much and do not know for sure. Seems absurd that they would... and others have now said they do not. But given how I do not use Google Groups for posting why would I know the details of their system for certain?
Carroll, 6/16/2015 8:47 PM:
-----
Your obsession with me is insane. Working with Google I now have
proof you and ebot worked together to hack me. Clever. If I press
charges against you I have to also include her so you remain safe
for now.
Do not think this is over.
-----
No evidence of working with Google on this (and all out and out lies). Carroll is making public threats based on lies.
Carroll, 6/16/2015 8:50 PM:
-----
I promised COLA your trolling days were over so you contacted ebot
and worked with her to hack my account. I might not be able to get
your ass handed to you in court over this but wait until your boss
at Yavapai College contacts you.
Maybe you should make that call first. Ask about your comments on
incest.
See if those can not be quoted.
-----
Direct lies and threats by Carroll.
Carroll, 6/16/2015 8:51 PM:
-----
You went too far this time Snit. We have trolled each other for
years but to contact ebot and get her to help you hack my account
was over a line.
-----
A complete and utter lie from Carroll.
Carroll, 6/16/2015 8:52 PM:
-----
The above post is Snit hacking my account.
-----
A complete and utter lie... more false accusations from him.
Carroll, 6/16/2015 8:53 PM:
-----
You edited those posts when you hacked my account. Do not trust
anything from my fretwizzer account now that Snit and ebot have
access to it.
-----
More unsupported claims and attacks by Carroll.
Carroll, 4/16/2015 8:56 PM:
-----
Working with Google I now have proof Snit and ebot hacked the
account. Many of the older posts were edited. You can see evidence
of this by Snit pointing to "old" posts which have been modified to
say I claimed I was his "personal newsgroup rapist", a phrase I
have never used.
-----
No evidence of Carroll working with Google. No evidence of any older posts being edited.
