  • @MetallicGecko God damn... it isn't exactly "english",since we're on youtube (hadn't u noticed), & therefore I'm using truncated & concatenated styles of texting to fit several paragraphs of meaning into a space allowing only 485 characters, d'yer geddit ??? !!!! Bottom line is i wrote th msg for elithecomputerguy cos i reckoned he was intelligent enough to garner the meaning from my somewhat obstruse style :-)

  • @m1s73r4nd3rs0n God damn... You're English is fucking terrible.

  • anyone have this blogpost that was spoken of?

  • I got one of those 6 mo Client Server Specialist training diploma, compliment from a non-profit org. LoL, after I got it I went on to doing something else. What you say is 100% true the recruiter didn't do much for me. Thanks for your deep coverage. I trained for Window NT back in 1998.

  • I got into computers because I grew up watching movies like War Games and Hackers. I didn't care about money; I just wanted to screw with people. Looking back, I don't really know what I thought hackers actually did. I do remember reading an article once though during the dot com boom called How to Be a Hacker. There's another one called How to Tell if you Son is a Hacker. Hahaha. Those were the days. My step father had this business called BB Hot Buys. The 90's weren't that long ago. Right?

  • Thanks Eli....Great Vid

  • You have great teaching skills, and I look forward to watching more of your videos.

  • great. just what we need.
