Slarti Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 That’s certainly one approach, but not one I’d recommend. I spent 30 years in IT recovering data from many lost causes. Looks like I might need to come out of retirement to safeguard the UK population. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-55672194 If anyone needs help recovering lost data I’m yer man! But I will charge a finders fee. If you need me to erase your data I’m an expert at that too. All for a fee of course! Yeah, I wasn't being serious.

ALBIONSAINT Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 Take away Covid they would just be idiots, driving around during a lockdown with no insurance, I see the dafties from Scotland who got stopped in Wales didn’t have insurance either.

Yes but he spent 30 years in IT dontcha know, and that's what he really wants to tell us. Oh and also about all his charity stuff too. Those guys are not known for their sense of humour and bonhomie. f**k me, I shudder when I remember having to deal with them over the years. Chip on shoulder. Inferiority complex. Barely controlled rage. They had all of them. Oh and good f**king luck trying to get one of these guys to fix and urgent problem during their break. The only good IT people are freelance. The permies are useless to a man. Ah the memories. 😁 Edited January 18, 2021 by oaksoft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need for that. A post-it stuck on your monitor is fine. The password to access my bitcoins is a closely guarded secret, only 42 people know it.
