I'm transferring ex-colleague's old laptop stuff to new laptop for her.
Old laptop: "I can't login, I have no internetz *FLOUNCE*"
Me: "Eh? I Just Want to Login, not go online..."
Old laptop: "NOPE! I Require Internetz before I'll login"
Me: "FFS. Notices barely visible network settings option which has almost no contrast from theme colour... Feeds it house wifi deets... *tries to login again*.
Old laptop: "I'll login, but you now have to create a pin"
Me: "I don't want to create a pin, I am logged in, I want to copy files and ditch you... Just Let Me In..."
Old laptop: "NOPE! MAKE PIN NAO!"
Me: "FFS. *makes a random pin"
Old laptop: "NOPE THAT PIN ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH!"
Me: "
?!!!" *Clicks on letters and numbers* *tries alphanumeric pin*
Old laptop: "NOPE!" "I'm now going to ignore lots of keypresses at random!"
Me: "FFS FFS FFS JUST LET ME IN!" *turns off letters and numbers* *clicks 'what are password requirements?' button* *is none the wiser* *tries 6 digit number*
Old laptop: "That'll do, I suppose...."
New laptop is pants. It has a "Pentium GOLD!" CPU, which is worse than even an i3 but *sounds* impressive I'm sure. I fear what colleague paid for this laptop... It's barely faster than the 6 year old one...
New laptop mostly only pissed me off half-choking on an update and needing several kicks to make it reboot and recheck and reboot and recheck... And telling Cortina to fuck off a billionty times.
That and I can't install Microshite Office cos it needs ex-colleague's work login AND multifactor auth verification even to just download the fucking thing. So will have to do that with her present.
