168 168 Never Quit

May 5, 2000, a very average day for the very average business supervisor. Though in just a couple of hours, it would quickly turn into a day of utter chaos and turmoil. Nearly every install of brand-new computer software damaged beyond repair, over 13,000 pieces of malware detected in just one office building, and soon, over $20 billion in damage seen all across the world. What happened? These catastrophic events were the work of a new computer worm that was circulating the internet: “ILOVEYOU.” Quite an ironic name, but it was derived from the fact that the worm would disguise itself as a love letter coming from a secret admirer. The worm could subsequently enter the Guinness Book of World Records because the foremost “virulent” What exactly allowed it to purpose this an honest deal damage, and the way did it paintings? The virus originated in the Philippines and was created by two programmers, Onel De Guzman and his friend, Reonel Ramones. It was allegedly developed by taking other ...

Greetings, and welcome to an LGR thing! And today, let me introduce to you, this fine computer. A buddy of mine was recently wanting to build a PC,  so I said I’d help him do it, with his chosen specs being an AMD Ryzen 5 1600X CPU, 16 gigs of Corsair Dominator Platinum RAM,  a 500 gig 960 EVO M.2 SSD, a 6 gig GeForce 980Ti Super Clocked video card, a Fractal Design Define C case, and MS-DOS 6.22.  Oh just- I’m kidding, he didn’t pick that. I did. Suffice to say, this is just for a bit of fun.  I do not recommend installing DOS on a modern PC; There’s a whole host of compatibility issues,  Legacy support is an interesting subject to me, as you know, the fact that modern PCs still technically run  all sorts of older compatible software, including old Microsoft operating systems like MS-DOS, This, straight onto the SSD  from floppy disks and everything. Um, yeah, let’s try to make that happen because  I’ve actually never done this with a computer th...

Welcome! I guess I don’t have mail... how sad. What am I . Why am I on AOL 4.0 on Windows 8.1? Whelp. That’s because this is LGR, and greetings. You know, nostalgia does weird things to you, so. I am going to be showing you how to run this on Windows 8.1. What the heck, I didn’t click on anything. At least, how to run it that way . They’re actually getting rid of this, and, uh. If you saw this tweet here that I posted a couple weeks ago,  I actually did a video on Combat Tanks, and I wanted to show the AOL Games section, and yeah, I’ve got this working and I tweeted about how to do it. People have been trying to do it since then, and, uh, well. I’m still trying it out. And then they put up this message at the beginning that says, oh, this is no longer going to be a supported version of AOL after June 30th, 2015. So! If you want to try this out, then follow my instructions here in this video... ah, before it’s too late. Cause I’m... I don’t know if I, like, reminded them that their ...
