Did you take a jump to the left?

And then a step to the right!

Cheers. I had only just got the "Do they know it's Christmas" tune out of my head (which you put there yesterday).

The only hit I want to know about her getting is with a high velocity shell.

Now that is a dilemma.
Which September 19th are we talking about? Because falling back in the past to a September 19th means that the last 19th September is the one before the one you are at now before the one you had falling in a time warp, had you not falling through to the one that is calculated to be the present one in the future from the past one now a present one pointing to a past one from the present one being its future one and not sufficient.

With Bill's later posting we seem to be on a theme. Arrrrrh!

Again, I had one of these persons - not describable by any kid sister safe adjective - on the line this morning. I kept it short and sweet. The good people at arstechnica[^] did not, and it is an entertaining read. (my apologies if I am reposting) I wish I had the energy to play along for fun with them but I never seem to be in that mood when they call. I really thought that this particular form of scamming had gone out of fashion and profitability but just like any other fashion it rather seems to be cyclic...

When I get that style of call the answer is quick "No you are not!" and I hang up.
|
|
|
|

I don't get the cold calling now since I bought a truecall, but before that it used to be a regular every couple of days.
"There is a problem with your computer."
"Is there, which computer would that be?"
"Excuse me?
"Well, there are 10 machines running, so which one is causing the problem?"
"emmmm....."
click.... 
|
|
|
|
|
When I asked "which one", the response was "the one near you".
|
|
|
|
|
There are some good videos on Youtube of a guys who have recorded both the audio and screen activity of these calls. They set up machines and deliberately let them onto it so they could see what the scammers were doing.
Quite entertaining.

Advantages of being in Germany, such scammers usually only speak english (and not always correctly)

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

If someone calls me from "Windows" I'd double shot my PC with 00 buckshots before it starts creating its own Skynet

For just such occasions, I keep a 139db air horn near the phone.
Scares the elephant out of the cat, but strangely they don't ring back...

One of these days, I should set up a windows VM on my 'nix box for situations like that...
But they never call me 
I feel so unloved... Well, unscammed... It's been years since I had the opportunity to really mess with a cold caller... Always too tired or busy to have an entertaining chat...

I remember getting a phone call from someone with a heavy Indian accent claiming that my Windows computer was hacking into their computers.
I simply said - "That's impossible - I own a Mac"
*** Click ***
They never called back. Another scam for something.
