Ah, this guy can't be too hard on himself! All part of the learning experience that goes into an impressive undertaking like building your own computer. That being said, many of us can relate to the infuriating predicament that is discovering your machine isn't broken and is just on the wrong input. Happens to the best of us.

A WiFi name can be a protest, a joke, or almost any other form of personal expression. Some people turn theirs into terrific puns while other people just want to see the world burn. Here are some clever and funny names people gave their WiFi. For more name stuff, here are some horrible names of actual people.

Gotta love that mention of "The Next Bill Gates?" It's been over a decade and sadly we haven't heard of Episoft. It's fine and dandy to build your own computer using old parts, and you can't knock them for ambition, but the way he talks about phoenixes rising from ashes is just awesome. You can expect a lot from a slow news day in Maine.
People have a pretty abysmal knowledge of computers, but almost never so bad that they try to have them removed from their office. IT people have to be very patient when a customer's computer won't work. Sometimes people don't know what a power button is. We don't envy people who have to deal with this level of ignorance on a daily basis.
Apple recently revealed that their new $5000 dollar computer does not come with the stand. Here's a video of them unveiling their thousand dollar stand. Thanks Apple. Anyway, the internet did what it did best and did the math on the other things you could buy if you have $999 laying around. Choose wisely.
What is there to do when you're wrongfully terminated from an employer that doesn't respect you in the first place? Sure, you could just wash your hands of the whole thing, but where's the fun in that? For more times people took the law into their own hands, here are some acts of gloriously petty revenge.
If you experienced childhood somewhere around the turn of the century, then quite a few of of these pictures might hit you right in the memory nads. Remember back when you had to drive to a store to rent videos? Wild. If you want more '90s nostalgia, then check these out.
It's seemingly inconsequential mistakes like this that keep us up at night. This dude could've had opportunity knocking at his door 2 years ago were it not for just a few small mistakes that made him invisible to potential employers. At least he figured it out eventually. Reminds us of this guy who literally lived in the dark for 6 years.
Everyone's ignorance of how computers work would be so much easier to deal with if we were all just honest about how much we don't know. Like, what's the use of telling the IT person they're wrong about their own job? Sometimes it's amazing what people don't know about their own computers.
We all have severe lapses in observation from time to time but damn, Karen. What can we say? At least she figured it out sooner than later. The devil's in the details. This isn't a rare phenomenon, and some people have worse technical skills than others. It's pretty common knowledge that people have a pretty hard time with computers.
You never know what kind of family secret you might uncover when searching through old computers. Truly, proceed at your own risk. This TIFU story could have had a much worse ending, but despite the secrets on that old laptop, the story ended up kinda heartwarming.

Dale Gribble wasn't some rambling, paranoid, chain-smoking conspiracy theorist after all...dude was right all along. I believe we have another name for "The Beast." Can anyone figure it out?
