<~`BlacklightShining> I am such a troll, lol
<~`BlacklightShining> so I wrote a little shell script and crontab entry…the script kills Adobe Flash every five seconds, the crontab entry launches the script when the computer boots
<~`BlacklightShining> so I called up Apple tech support pretending to not know what to do…“I can't play YouTube videos!”
<%Enms> Haha.
<%Enms> What do they say?
<~`BlacklightShining> so far, we've rebooted the computer several times, “reinstalled” Flash—even though it was never /un/installed…
<%Trixter> lol
<~`BlacklightShining> and now we're at the reinstall-the-OS stage
<~`BlacklightShining> stupid connection; it'll take four hours, so I got a case ID and will call the guy back
<~`BlacklightShining> they had to get a Senior Advisor on the line, too, 'cause nopony understands UNIX anymore XD
<%Enms> o:
<~`BlacklightShining> I know, right?
<%Enms> Hahah XD
<~`BlacklightShining> and so I kept muting the phone so I could crack up XD
<%Enms> But what do you want to get from them ? Just trollage ?
<~`BlacklightShining> this is hilarioius
• ~`BlacklightShining shrugs
<%Enms> Lol
<%Enms> Poor guys
<%Enms> They're probably panicking
<~`BlacklightShining> I'm testing the Apple tech support! lol
<%Enms> Haha
<%Trixter> do they suck!
<%Trixter> ?
<~`BlacklightShining> but I recently had to dual-boot with Snow Leopard, and that wiped out the Recovery HD…so reinstalling Lion was going to happen anyway XD
<~`BlacklightShining> wiped out the Recovey HD due to a bug *
<~`BlacklightShining> Trixter: no, they're actually the best tech support I know
<~`BlacklightShining> but nopony understands UNIX stuff anymore :P
<~`BlacklightShining> I think I scared the guy when I read the sudo warning out to him
<~`BlacklightShining> 'course, I use sudo all the time, so it won't give /me/ the warning…had to stall a sec (“What's Terminal?”) while I switched over to the guest account so I could get the warning and read it to him XDComment: #LunasLoftOOC on Canternet (irc.canternet.org)
