Obviously, this is a trap designed to capture Kate Upton in zero gravity.

Re: Quote of the Week From My Life.
 
At a restaurant Sunday night....
 
FLGS owner walks around the table, puts a hand on his 15-year old daughter's shoulder, startling her half to death. (She didn't see him.)
 
Me: "Dude, your daughter just aged three years."
 
Him: "Good." "You can move out now."
 
Me: "See what I did there?"
 
Her: "You're both horrible."
 
Us: "We know."

Please, NO!
 

Almost forgot: I started using a VPN recently. This adds some additional security. Plus, I can watch region-locked TV shows on the web.
 

Here's what I do on a fresh install:
 
1. Run the thing that comes with Windows, whatever they're calling it this week.
2. Run the paid version of Malwarebytes.
3. Install Ublock Origin adblocking extension on all the browsers.

The Windows built in AV does a good job at blocking viruses, though not so good a job at cleaning them. Malwarebytes will prevent you from even loading suspect sites and stop other Malware. The two don't conflict. Most off the shelf AV packages also have malware protection running, and those might conflict with MWB. Ublock Origin does a good job at blocking ads of all kinds. You can also use the element zapper to get rid of embedded ads or animated images, or other screen elements you don't like (say, fixed headers, hate those, don't know why they're a fad again). You can also use it to block javascript on a site.
 
I've been using this scheme for a very long while now, over a decade, and I haven't had any problems.

I'm retiring my computer.

Or not.
 
Just like that, everything's fine now.

I hate computers.

I am, in fact, my own evil twin. Which simplifies everything.

It's like Pixar gave us the Fantastic Four movies we never got from Marvel.

I used to tell people who asked what I want for Christmas that I don't need anything, just get me a pizza. Now we make one from scratch every year because my wife understands me.
Merry Christmas!
