That was my experience. If I did want to check an executable because I was getting a cracked copy of something I had a piece of shit computer that wasn’t connected to anything where I could move the file and test it.
Most of the malware was hilariously unoptimized and would grind the piece of shit to a halt immediately. I had a stolen copy of Deep Freeze from work so a quick reboot put everything back.
We should riot.
Did the pest control person confirm it’s a bedbug? I ask because I have a friend that was convinced he had them but he had carpet beetles. They were often misidentified on the old site with folks asking if they had bedbugs.
I’m not saying it’s not a bedbug. Those things are horrendous and I’m no expert. I’m saying carpet beetle larvae can cause irritation and make you think you have bedbugs and their similar size gets them misidentified sometimes.
Whether they are or aren’t, getting your landlord to get someone in to look is the right call.
My favorite was "here’s Exchange 2003, you’ll figure it out. We seem to be sending out thousands of emails every few minutes and are on all the spam lists. See you in a bit. ".
That’s what they did to me 20-odd years ago. I did my best to train up the guys that came after me, but I am only one guy. I hope they’re not still doing that.
I know a family who was directly behind one and one of the thinner logs flew off the truck and through their window directly between the two adults in the front seat.
A friend of mine was riding behind a semi when the bracket holding the mudflap detached. Ended up with a 2 inch hole in his hood. The cop that came out wouldn’t write up a report for insurance because he didn’t believe the story, even in the middle of the damn interstate with a fresh hood hole. So my friend drove around for years with a hole in his hood. I think that’s the day he started hating cops.
They can’t back up their position, which is why they said they wouldn’t get sucked into a debate.
