ID=10T errors Don't be that guy

     Welcome back for this very special edition of I-TG33k. I'm your host Denny "I-TG33k" Clinton. Today I want to discuss a very serious topic that plagues a huge portion of computer users these days. Perusing this list, you'll see that you, dear readers, may even be afflicted with these ID=10T errors.
    Now, don't panic... these are fixable but you will always carry the secret shame of knowing .... you're one of them.
   Now, I'm sure you're asking what ID=10T errors are. It's all VERY technical but I'll do my best to sum it up for you.... ID=10T is a specific classification / rating system  used within the Information Technologies biz that categorizes an end user according to their technical skill level and willingness to learn. ID=10T specifically stands for Identification Determination  equal 10% Technical Aptitude

                                                        NO NOT REALLY!!!!!
Let me Show you:      ID10T      see it now? No, fine. I'll make it abundantly clear: IDIOT. now you see it huh?

There are many variations of ID=10T errors, some more severe than others. I'm going to lay all out for you here. Now if you find that you, dear readers, fit into one of these roles don't be offended. Most people will but don't worry.... you can fix it.... admitting the problem is the first step: 

  • The Quick Clicker: Usually limited to the Tween set (10 -14 years of age) These ID10Ts let nothing stand in their way of a download. Throwing caution (and common sense) to the wind, they blast through every option of every download to get it started, Viruses and add-ons be damned! These computers are the ones that have tons of bloatware clogging them up but the owners have no idea why it runs so slow!(Maybe because you let your kid download every toolbar known to man you clueless prick!)
  • The Wannabe: These ID10Ts want to be a techie soooooo bad ! They try to talk the talk but cannot wrap their heads around the skill. They think they know what they're doing but manage to screw everything up. These are the folks that hover over me and try to troubleshoot problems they've caused (seriously, get the fuck out of the room before I beat you with your keyboard dumbass)
  • The Virus Collector: These ID10Ts make me money! With no AntiVirus to speak of they venture across the InterWebs inviting every virus they come across back to their hard drive to hang out. They then want to know why the computer is broken (Stay off the pornsites without protection Moron!)
  • The E.M.P: It's hard to refer to these guys as ID10Ts. These people repel technology. For whatever reason these folks have an aura around them that just Breaks Shit! Typically it's unintentional  but whatever they use just stops working. Phones, Computers, TVs you name it. These mystical agents of mayhem walk into the room and shit goes foul. (Honestly, go outside...do not touch anything! Keep your voodoo outta here!!!!) 
  • The How-DO-I?: These ID10Ts want to learn, they really do. .. But it's the constant corrections that put them on this list. I get it, I really do....how else are they going to learn if they don't ask the questions and try stuff out for themselves. The problem being.... they seek the guidance AFTER tinkering alone!!!! (Here's a tip...ASK FIRST Dummy!!!!!) 
  • The A.T.A: That stands for Against Technical Advice, kind of like in the medical field where if you're dumb enough to completely disregard the doctors instructions you get labelled AMA. I get the same type of ID10Ts and these are the worst. I hate working with these fucks. I work on their machines and explain what is causing their issues (Internet Explorer and a piss poor or nonexistant A/V) and not only advise them, but install better stuff for them.... and what do I hear "I like IE better, I'm still going to use that" .... (Fuck. You. enjoy your viruses FUCKTARD) 
Aaaaand on that note, let's wrap up this list. These are just a sampling of the ID10Ts I run into, I'll save more for a future edition.

as always: Until Next Time: M3G@BYT3 ME, Bitches!
