Tom-843 Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Haha, that's funny. I actually hope its true, just because of how awesome it would be if it was. Link to post Share on other sites
Triggerhappychappy Posted December 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 oh ffs I was wondering when /b/ would get blatantly mentioned here.... Bear in mind I've only heard of 4chan in the last few months (mentioned here in an offtopic thread funnilly enough...); /b/ means nothing to me other than I saw it a few times in that thread. I see funny, I share funny, nothing more- no promoting of weird forums at my end EDIT: this was originally posted on my r/c forum, I havent actually visited the 4chan place...

RWJP Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 If this is real, I want to applaud the /b/ guys and cry at the idiocy of the person who bricked his HDD. Dear lord, if that person honestly believed anyone on /b/ he deserved what he got. Link to post Share on other sites
mattmanic Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 This is pretty much the funniest thing I've read all year. Well done to everyone involved. Although it wouldn't be too hard for the kid to deny all knowledge as it would just seem like the hard drive had died pretty catastrophically (*fruitcage* yeah, spelt it right first time).

chas Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Funny, but it definitely looks like /b/ got trolled hard. Link to post Share on other sites
teflon don Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 if its true than that not funny at all i feel sorry for that guy he ruined his dads computer because he trusted some forum guy's Link to post Share on other sites
bbondaloose Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 To me, /b/ is where humanity and all warmth or kindness goes to die. Thus, the board is filled with people who like to release their inner evils, and kill off any kind of mental sense. For Arnies's sake, don't go to /b/, or even 4chan.org at all.

Stealthbomber Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 FWIW, I recently tried to kill a damaged HDD and I couldn't manage it using a stonking-great magnet. Funny thing is, even though the HDD refused to die, when I decided to take it to bits I found that all the screws inside were magnetised so I'm pretty sure the magnet was pretty powerful. Before anybody says anything, I wasn't working on behalf of Gary Glitter or suffering from paranoia. It was just a HDD that had a bunch of bad sectors which meant it couldn't be used to reliably store data. As a result I figured I might as well have some fun torture-testing it. Magnets definitely didn't live up to their reputed ability to kill an HDD though. Link to post Share on other sites
