send me your IP and I will let anonymous have a go at it. You would be hacked in minutes. In fact getting your ip would not be hard, and I have not done IT in 15 years 

Are you the hacker known as 4chan?

Well, with my newest router, I have relaxed restrictions a bit (mostly due to laziness), but I used to only allow access via MAC address.  Now it's via IPV6, and restricted to only 7 devices.  Also, my network hasn't used 192.168.xxx.xxx for many years.

I was thinking about getting one of those new-fangled emulators that play those old games.  Space invaders, pong, PacMan, etc.

email has a header with an IP. Should not be that big of a deal to verify. Why is no one really denying it.

 

Trump supposedly called some troops losers. No verification what so ever--still front page news and treated as if it were true 

The whole Golden shower Trump thing. No evidence what so ever but was front page news and investigated for 2 years.

Rachel Maddow gets a snippet of a leaked Trump tax return supposedly--Front page news

Trump took MLK statue out of Oval office. Complete falsehood and easily verifiable. Front page news,

 

I am sure If I felt like googling I could come up with many many more

 

Surely you will admit there is a huge double standard

 

   Yes, which is why I take issue with the conduct of the repair shop. They should have just turned the laptop over to authorities, and then we would only be discussing Hunter Biden's ethics and not the business owner.

First game I played was Breakout on the 2600. All downhill from there. Do you mean those newly released overpriced retro consoles?

We would? So you're saying the authorities would go public with this? I've got a bridge to sell you. The authorities are the last thing any reasonable person would trust with sensitive/criminal information on a Biden.

Can you point me in the direction of the law(s) to which you keep referring?

 

  As I said, I did repair and refurbishing so I don't have a link to what I did. Just word of mouth, and it was ~20 years ago. I'll see if I can find a relevant link though. The only time we could make a copy was if we were reinstalling something on a new drive. We had to delete that when the repair was complete. Abandoned property meant hardware, not software or personal information.

  They did, along with making copies for other people. The optics are not good, and there was no reason for that.

Had to look that up... naw, I don't want a PC.  Have a MacBook that won't play much in the way of video intensive games, and a TV.  I was thinking of something that costed like $30-50.  Don't care for Xbox and PSx due to the monthly subscription required to play online.  Used to have a PS3 when it was free to play online.
