Rant 646 / LoLHoN

This is interesting. Everyone thinks that piracy is more common on the PC than on any console, but here's something strange.


I find the lack of seeds conspicuous and suspicious.













So League of Legends is also going to be hosted by Garena together with Heroes of Newerth. I like where Garena is heading.

As of September the game is in the Closed Beta phase on Garena, so we should see some news of it soon, maybe next month or December.

IMO we're going to be confused for some time while the majority decide whether they're going to stick with either or both.












So now there's all this hype online about the unnatural longevity of a McDonald's hamburger. Does it mean if I eat a Double Cheeseburger I'm going to shit beef?

That's going to make a lot of people happy IMO. All the thrill of eating and none of the frills from digesting the meat? Miracle!













I'm starting to like Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware. I just found out I can update it for free. So I can scan and update it for free. I am satisfied. Plus it has proven itself the other day.

If I buy the software, I get the other functions like the constant protection that I'm using NOD32 for and the Flash Scan. The protection probably means the automatic monitoring of files that I download and websites I visit. I don't actually know and I don't care since I'm not buying. As for the Flash Scan, it's for scanning memory and autorun objects. Not sure what it really means by "memory" since hard disk contains memory too. Or am I wrong?

Also just found another virus this morning when I scanned just for the heck of it.

NtWqIVLZEWZU (Trojan.FakeAlert)

What the heck? Something is still wrong!

That's it! I'm going to Safe Mode.

...

Didn't help. Anti-Malware kept crashing during the Full Scan.

This may require further investigation.

...

Upon further investigation, I found this page on how to remove viruses.

I did see this thread before but I never clicked on it because I knew it was going to be long and tedious. I was hoping for a simple solution initially and I have seen such guides before in my previous experience with malwares. Such guides made by experts are never as short as "Install this programme, run it and everything will be fine.

No, they are always comprehensive and detailed. I understand the necessity but I am lazy. Now that I have no choice, I have to read it and follow their instructions.

I plan to do this later when I switch on the air conditioner at night because I'm going to do this with the help of my laptop. My room is going to get very warm with 2 heaters. Right now my computer isn't blowing up or spamming porn on my screen so I don't see any need for haste.

Also, I recommend bookmarking this. At least that's what I'm doing. I'll delete it if it doesn't work.













Can't believe I guessed the meaning of "cheese" wrong as it is used among Starcraft 2 players. I thought it came from the word "cheesy" and meant something like cheap and/or inferior.

The actual definition of "cheese" in the SC2 community, according to the Liquidepedia 2 page, is a build that depends on secrecy to work and will surely lose if spotted too early.













North Korea sounds like it may declare war on South Korea.

Not now! What if they call back Boxer to help defend the country?!?

Or worse, THEY MAY CANCEL THE TOURNAMENT BECAUSE OF WAR!

DON'T DECLARE WAR!!!

Yet.
