HELLO ALL. I am quite serious of what I am going to ask, but I need help immediately. I posted it here cause it seems appropriate over here.
So you know about the rule where you cannot have an alternate account? Well, my brother knows I go here and he knows its a rule that if you do, its a ban/suspension. Sooooooo, my brother blackmails me that if I don't do what he says, he'll make an alternate account and that is gonna get me banned cuz of IP shit. I'm getting tired of his blackmailing, and I cannot access the computer he is using if you want me to do something to prevent him from coming to GBAtemp. HOW DO I STOP DOING WHAT HE SAYS AND HIS BLACKMAILING? ANY COMPUTER MAGIC SHIT?
HELPPP
I SWEAR IM BEING SERIOUS AF
HE MADE ME DOWNLOAD LEAGUE OF LEGENDS :cry:

You seem like a sortve well known person on here. Maybe the mods can make an exception or something, considering you warned them.

Ask them or something

Beat him up. I'm serious about this. If he's older than you, tell him to stop bugging you and just resolve this problem as adults.

Big brothers don't work like that mannnnn. They do what they want, and no problem will be resolved 'as adults', especially something like blackmail.

My advice, call his bluff. See if he is seriously going to waste so much time trying to get an IP ban. Worst case, install a VPN and don't worry about him. Though he is your brother, you need to understand how to work him in the right way.

Personally, I'm too proud to be blackmailed by my brother, that shit doesn't work on me ;)

Slide a magnet all around his HDD. Especially easy if it's a laptop.
HDDs aren't as sensitive to magnets as people like to believe, and if it's a laptop there's a good chance it's an SSD so a magnet wouldn't do diddly squat.

Banning him is the safest option :angry:

Yeah let's just kill him and sell him as meat to a chinese burger chain
But selling it is hard to do. Just kill him till he's dead, then eat 'Chinese' food for a week.

Awwww :( What about one of those super strong rare earth magnets? Or put some on top of the hard drive, and reassemble it?

If it's an SSD, just install some viruses and have him deal with it.

It's not smart to ban zombie Obama imo.

I have a friend that knows his way around pumping a computer full of viruses with just the victims e-mail address *hint hint*

We live in a scary world

I think you meant McDonalds. Chinese is all cat and dog fried in secret sauces.

If you really wanna fix this, knee him in the gut, punch him in the face, and tell him if he does it again you're going to kill everyone he has ever loved while he is strapped to a chair with his eyelids super glued to his cheek and forehead.

    I use AKG K7XX headphones for daily use, but Meze 99 Classics when I want to *enjoy* the music

    I mean built in sound on mobo's has gotten way better but still XP handled sound better and X-Fi was still better than onboard audio even to this day
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Hell not sure what was going on but for like a few weeks MP3's sounded muffled, some driver or Windows update fixed it. Thank god lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Oh boy Massdrop has $1100 IEMs. Want, but not at that price lmao. https://drop.com/buy/campfire-audio-andromeda-emerald-sea-iem
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'd sooner buy the Meze 109 Pro if I was dropping that much on headphones. I don't even like buds/IEMs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I got the Google Pixel Pro buds, they're good enough for when I need portable audio. And some really cheap IEMs that Dankpods recommends, I think the KZ ZSN Pro

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'd stick with cheapo Chinese $10 ones quality is actually becoming on pair with name brand since name Brand usually quads the price up anyway loose one bud that's another $200
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    My Pixel Pro buds shit the bed a month or two ago. My wireless charger (which they do support Qi charging) absolutely COOKED them. Caused some problem that caused the case to heat up to 180F+
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    They were like 9 months out of warranty but I hit up Google support anyway and told them how hot they were getting and they replaced them with new ones because they wanted these for failure analysis lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    lol wireless charging
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why I can't bring myself to even spend $100 on wireless earbuds
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it's a cool idea but damn
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Apparently the case has a problem with >15W wireless chargers. Google design fault, that one.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I could live with wireless charging if the damn standard case doesn't block connection
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    how is wireless charging possible?

    you mean generally, how does the concept work?
    +1
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Copper conducting electricity or something
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @Xdqwerty, power through a coil of wire causes an electromagnetic field to be generated. Another coil of wire can be set up to harness the power from that electromagnetic field and turn it into usable energy for charging a device
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Two good videos from ElectroBOOM that touch on the subject:
