I grew up with a Compaq running Windows 95. I was way too young to remember any specs this far down the line. Now I'm in the process of putting together my own desktop rig for the first time (I'm a little late to the computer-building scene, but whatever).

I got my first computer fairly late, i was like 26 and it was a sh*tty hand me down PC from my cousin that was outdated as hell.

i couldn't use it for anything except playing old emulators on it.
i mainly used it to familiarize myself with computers but eventually the thing got so many viruses it became completely useless and that's how i learned the value of an anti virus program

You'd think that if we can put a man on the moon, we can eliminate the computer virus. Genocide in Rwanda is not as grave a threat to the moral fabric of humanity as porn viruses.

I feel weird being the youngest person on this site, yet having never owned a computer.

I know you've separated yourself from the library crowd and all now, so was it just so you could say something like that? lol.

Its even sadder, I didn't even get them from porn, as much as i tried the update the programs it still ran like sh*t so i couldn't watch porn it or stream practically anything on it.

i honestly don't know where i got the viruses from but i sure learned the hassle they can bring.

Whether or not there is a causation between watching internet porn and all the times I've gotten viruses, there has certainly always been a correlation.

My mom bought me a computer when I was 12 and the thing bricked after a month because it was the first time in my life that I had a computer of my own with wireless and and a broadband connection.

It never stood a chance.

Ofc there is, and the kinkier the porn is, the worst the virus is.

Have you ever been to a site you just KNOW you're gonna get a virus from? you can just feel something is shady and not right before you get it.
