You know you're a Techie Div when...

You're impressed by terms like ADSL and RAM.

Re: You know you're a Techie Div when...

Y'know, there is a mod on this forum now so thread titles that belittle the techie nerds may no longer be tolerated.

Friendly shot across the bow, Paul. Just so you know.

What is to be impressed by Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line and Random Access Memory is not impressive, no, change ADSL to LTE and RAM to RRAM and you would be on the frefront of technology and nerdiness for those 2 specific ones.

I wasn't belittling the techie nerds - I fucking love those geeks. They are truly altruistic in their sharing of their valuable knowledge on here. I'm classing myself as a Techie Div.

When you say stuff to the technician at work like, "Just weave some of your mystical techie spells and make the fucker work, Robbo".

Re: You know you're a Techie Div when...

Even though I class myself as a low-level techie geek I I realised tonight I was able to text myself as a note to remind myself to do something tomorrow. Previously I thought I'd be engaged.

why not go a step further and set the note in the calender on your phone with a alarm playing the tune of your choice as the reminder

Re: You know you're a Techie Div when...

I'm a total techie div, but a wannabe techie nerd. This leads to me giving ridculous techie advice to people that tends to end up breaking their computers.

You know you're a Techie Div when you don't have the HDMI monitor output set to "on" on your AV Receiver and go looking for help on a tech forum rather than work it out for yourself.

You save a report as a hotfile sitting there for 5 minutes then realise you've missed a field out. But I am hungover.

Re: You know you're a Techie Div when...

You know you're a techy div when you shut down a server to hot swap a hard drive from a RAID array and are then suprised when the server never starts up again.
