Let's show off our Speedtest.net results.
It's the computer geek's equivalent of showing off your pimped up Volkswagen Golf.

Well you certainly set the benchmark pretty high! This is all my connection manages:

You'll probably take the piss out of my connection speed.



To be honest, I'm happy with the download speed, it's the slow upload speed which pisses me off.

I know that some sites place limits on the bandwidth, I can't see many sites allowing 125Mb/s.

This is honestly like bragging about whose girlfriend has bigger breasts, or who has a longer penis.  I have the best internet I can afford.

Your upload speed is much better than mine.

I don't download that many huge files but I often upload largish forum attachments and 0.29Mb/s is shit.

[Lead Head]

I personally like a good upload too. I'm constantly uploading stuff or sending files to people. I'm pretty okay with my download where it is now.

I have medium slow dsl from ATT. It does what I need done.

I blame Dell for crappy wifi.
And if I just ran up to the university of surrey (literally right next door) with an ethernet cable and jacked in, BOOM I'd kill all of you in a single stroke! But it's probably illegal

You are a kid, everything is legal. If I knew when I was a young teen the slaps on the wrist I'd get for doing illegal things, I'd have done more illegal things. You should dig a trench and put a cable in that. Go do something illegal!

I'll stick with pirating Microsofts fuckware. Windows 1 is fun (and stupid). I have a VM with Windows 2000, only use is infecting with as many viruses as I can.

NOTE: This is not an offical confession, Microsoft, go sue Apple for a change, instead of Apple suing you.

You should watch the zombies phone home on Ethereal on that VM because you can steal unsavvy IRC based botnets that way and start a war.

Lol, I must find how to set up a botnet, but unfortuantely it, like you said, requires hostiing IRC, and that means I would have to forward the routers ports, and my bloody parents changed the password since I hacked it

I've heard of more modern ones getting their commands via gnutella which requires far less in the way of hosting. From what I have heard you basically have the zombie search for a hash, which is always the same, for some random file and the commands are in the file name which can change despite always having the same SHA1 hash. I don't know much else and there are probably different methods but the distributed ones tend to be easy to take control of.
