From what I've seen (which is none of it lately), it looks like the trolling nonsense got more sophisticated. 

Just some names Steve Carroll has used
    "Evil" John *
    "Evil" Snit *
    Big Crotch on a Small Fish
    Cornelius Munshower
    CSMA Moderator
    Edward Stanfield
    Fretwiz *
    Hitman Hero
    Measles
    Petruzzellis Kids
    Sigmond
    Slaveen
    Smit
    Steve C *
    Steve Camoll *
    Steve Carroll <noone@xxxxxxxxxxx> *
    Steve Carroll <stevecarroll@xxxxxxxxxxx> *
    Steve Carroll <trollkiller@xxxxxx> *
    Steve Carroll's Dog *
    Steve Carrolll *
    Steve Carrroll *
    Yevette Owens
    Yobo_Obyo


What is Steve Carroll's system for the flooding crap? AppleScript? That is the only language he knows, at least that I have seen. He must be programming it to produce these goofy "spam" idiotic threads. Here is my hypothesis, Steve Carroll took a FireFox extension that he pirated and pretended was his... he's feeding it Snit's posts, grabbing random paragraphs, then editing those using value iteration and then he directly posts them because his obsessiveness enables him to do that essentially ceaselessly. 

Now let's see, who knows the DOM API, is an insomniac, has forged Snit's ID, has motive and is a colossal immatureloser who posts ignorant claptrap even when he's not flooding... AND... who tries to blame everything _he_ is doing on "anyone he can" and has for his whole life?

Have suggested both to people (though I do not know Chrome Books well 
and let them know that).

I know the ChromeBook reviews well, but most of the folks I know who 
have used them do not like them. Not sure why... I have not worked with 
them enough to really say.

probably because they aren't familiar with them.

for common tasks (email, word processing, web browsing, etc.), they're
a very good choice. some can even run android apps.

Could be. I know my kids use them at a friend's house and hate them, but 
they are used to Macs (and somewhat Windows). They have very little 
exposure to Linux other than our "TV" system.

I have heard that is coming...

Yes, the machine is limited, that's one of the ways they keep it simple
and reliable.  It's aimed at people who have no concept of what installing
a program even means. Also, you can hook up any kind of printer you want
as long as it's an HP. :) (The machine comes pre-loaded with HP's HLIP
software for Linux.)

Cost is ridiculous when compared to similar-spec commodity hardware,
but as I said what you're paying for is the ease of use for people who
really have no knowledge of computers at all. I find it frustrating
to deal with since it is so locked down. However my elderly neighbor,
who is a WWII veteran to whom a computer seems like something out of
Buck Rogers, loves the thing.

I get that -- though I fear they may have gone too far for many. Really 
want to play with one now though.

That is the target market I am sure.

Another feature of the WOW which is an all-in-one design 22" touchscreen 
(2G ram, 32 G SSD, wireless kb/mouse) is their 'built-in' support 
situation.  Free lifetime basic support and VIP support at $10/mo, which 
basic support is toll free phone, email, and claims to be US based (that 
may be the VIP v.)  as opposed to a language barrier phone center 
somewhere in the world.

The VIP support includes extras and remote access support.

ChromeOS is based on Linux. Period. 

Steve Carroll just wiped the floor with Jeremy. Almost all people in this forum do scripting either as entertainment or as a job, so I have doubts more than a few consider automation to be "voodoo". Who are you even blubbering to? It is obvious at least some of the posts are hand generated because some of them tap into what Steve Carroll said in very specific ways that underscore they are a response, not just gibberish. Was that meant to be your best shot? 

Jeremy wants to punish us: If Jeremy can't play here then nobody will. 

I am working on a system which will blow what Linux has away.

I dunno about the US, but in the UK if I get an Indian I just say "I'd like to speak to an English person please" and they put me through to one.

The business of being able to provide sufficient quality telephone 
support is typically a very costly and difficult undertaking.  The 
typical scenario is that it is farmed out to call centers somewhere the 
support hourly wage is more affordable, such as India or the Philippines.

This target marketed audience of seniors, particularly those who would 
choose to buy such a WOW computer, would seem to me to be a particularly 
difficult one. "I don't know anything about computers and my faculties 
are somewhat impaired as I can't see very well (or hear very well, or 
remember very well, or handle a mouse very well)."

It is interesting that the WOW people decided to build their interface 
on the Tiny Core Linux base and other open source ware.  It seems that 
the hardware is very minimal except for what is spent on that 22" 
touchscreen, so the dollar distribution would be hardware-wise 
principally that monitor touchscreen and then the tech support.

I'm sure they would 'immediately' upgrade the users who needed more 
support to the $10/mo VIP (1st 30 d. free VIP), but that is still pretty 
cheap price.  Being able to give remote support helps a lot, but that 
requires functional connectivity and hardware performance.  If one of 
those weren't operating properly, I think the customer would need some 
kind of outside support.

The reviews on Amazon were more negative than positive.  There were 
worthwhile comments there from IT people who made suggestions about 
alternate ways to provide much better hardware, but I didn't find those 
suggestions satisfactory about how to achieve a 'foolproof' interface. 
There's the nut in this venture.

Which is why minimum wage is a stupid idea, it just means other countries get all our work.

I was once asked to fax a copy of a receipt to a company when the fax/modem I bought from them wasn't working.  He realised his mistake when I burst out laughing.

You managed to find Amazon's review system?  I hate Amazon, it's about 10 times harder to use than Ebay.  First annoying thing, the postage ain't shown in the search results.  So I can't see who's the cheapest.  Amazon, you lose.

Do you have other ideas to reduce socializing the cost of labor? Right 
now, for example, many if not most of Walmart and McDonald's workers get 
part of their income from the government -- socializing the cost of 
labor for these businesses.

The general reply to this is to respond with microeconomics thinking: 
these people should get other work if they want more money, but this 
ignores the reality that these are the two largest employers in the 
country. Looking at the macroeconomic situation, these corporations and 
many others get socialized support for their labor costs.

A competing marketer is Telikin, which has more screen size options on 
weak cpu/ram and a laptop which benefits from having 4G ram and is also 
'less overpriced' at $800 for 15.6 touchscreen and spinning 500G hdd 
instead of small SSD.

It seems that Telikin has been around in some way since 2010 Nov 
according wp article.

I wonder exactly who is in charge of developing the interface, since it 
seems to be being used by more than one outfit.  I believe Venture 3's 
Fred Allegrezza has been into this idea longer than WOW.

Here's Fred commenting in the Ub forum in 2012 Oct;


Hey Guys,

Telikin was developed on the TinyCore Linux. Our primary goal of using 
Linux was to avoid viruses, spyware, and malware. We also chose TinyCore 
to have an option of an embedded version in the future. I am not a Linux 
expert. Tim, Megan, Adam, Cliff and Carl work on the OS and back office 
systems. We also have an application team developing the apps on Java.

We also selected TinyCore to have a platform that was easy for us to 
manage updates for the users. Our background was in cable where settop 
boxes have a lot of software but it is managed for the end users.

We agree that there are many tech savvy seniors. We built the computer 
for those that are not comfortable with computers. About 50% of our 
users have never used a copmputer before. We were not targeting tech 
savvy seniors. They have Windows and Mac as options.

We decided to include a number of applications so the end users would 
not need to load and manage application. In addition we know the apps 
and if when a customer calls in we know what they are using. I think of 
this more as an application system.

A big part of the business is support. We built in a remote management 
service for all computers so we can remotly show our users how to use 
applications.

The specs are on the web site.

As a value proposition telikin serves a niche market, included software 
applications and great support. We undertand it is not for everyone, but 
there are a number of happy users.

Hope this helps.
Fred Allegrezza CEO Telikin.

    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.
