Normies screwing up with technology

Let's collect some anectodes of normies we know who ended up making a mess using tech the wrong way, like people chatting with random strangers and getting too confidential with people they didn't know, people destroying their work for some technical foolishness and stuff like that.

I'll start with a guy at my college who typed his unmasked root password on the terminal by accident and thus let me and a friend of mine access it while he went to bathroom, and discover some porn pics unmistakably put in the "Pictures" folder. We then warned it because we're good guys, he's just too much of a normie for a CS student, doesn't really get informed about anything but what we do in class and he's really limited in his actual CS skills for this. He only cares about taking good grades.

ITT, idiots who think they're not normies because they "hacked"

I know one of the people who got 15 minutes of primetime news fame for an e-cig torching his car. I can personally attest that he had (and likely still has) no meaningful understanding of:
- lithium batteries
- USB power delivery
- voltage and current, as general concepts, and
- how he dun goofed.

"Macs can't have viruses right?"

I know a guy who says python is not a 'real' programming language even though he doesn't have a job and I do. posts on Sup Forums too

macs > pc (i mean to say windows but im retarded and dont understand PC is a platform that mac itself uses)

Thread winner

>using the term normie/normalfag unironically
this is what eugenics are for

And maybe he also uses C#.
I can't say how many times I've thanked God for Python's existence. There are countless libraries for anything you may need and it's vert easy to do scripts which use them, I think it's the most useful programming language along with C and C++.

So that touch bar isn't only useless but also dangerous.

>"Hey user, I used inspect element to hack a website, but how do you make the changes permanent"

real question I was asked

I know some normies who think everything they write with Telegram's secret chat is actually secret.

Apple are cunts though

Anyone unironically using the term "normies" is more retarded than the institutionalized mongoloids they borrowed the term from.

normie detected

Get off my board, normie.

>chatting with random strangers and getting too confidential with people they didn't know

sounds like you OP

I knew some normie girls from my classroom who non-ironically joined telegram groups composed by complete strangers (which they found on random websites...) when they were like 16, obviously with real pics of them as propics, and one of them even got "involved" with a douche she met there even though they hadn't ever met. Luckily their parents found put and had "a serious talk" with them and they learned the lesson before doing some further shit, still wtf guys. We anons may have waifus and shit but at least we're not so blind and we know the limits of online communication. These people probably believe shitty romance media where boy and girl magically fall in love in distance relationship via internet/letters/idk.

No senpai, Sup Forums is the exact opposite of this shitty no-privacy culture, as we know where to limit conversation on the internet. We share thoughts and information but don't really believe in bullcrap like "finding real friends on the internet xd"

/r9k/ is the exception
