unknown scam phone calls...(plus extras)

I thought those of the online Instagram scams that I was being a victim in 2020 was bad enough, how about this one which is currently occurring on me through MANY of those unknown phone numbers? Believe or not, they call me specifically using regular phone numbers instead of WhatsApp like several of those advanced scammers with their respective methods out there, though this particular type of classic scam is already existed since more than decades ago, way before those of the advanced ones with combination between WhatsApp and those online social medias are now exist. Since I also installed GetContact on my 📱, I somehow leaked the slight secret about who are the culprits behind all of those unknown phone numbers, which I have no clue about how come if they also leaked my phone number there too.

After I briefly checked it through several of the identified ones (specifically for those ones which GetContact flags them as a spam, because there are many of them that are remains unidentified, oh boy), it turns out if those culprits are indeed either fake online loan promoters and fake (supposedly) technicians from one of the popular ISPs in our entire country, for this case (if I'm not mistaken, unless if I already read those popular articles related about them from various online news portals). There's not much else that I could say to them apart from the fact I still able to simply ignore them at all costs, unlike those online Instagram scams that I mentioned just earlier. So that's basically just it, I obviously DON'T accept any of those suspicious regular phone calls like so for highly obvious reasons. Which means, the only action that I'm gonna do against them is obviously blocking their phone numbers specifically using my 📱's built in contacts app (and possibly using Getcontact app too), though I'm not sure if they somehow able to call me back with a vengeance.

As for the bonus related to this short article, specifically in one of the popular online marketplaces. In the exact time where those of the aforementioned unknown scam phone calls that are now a thing in mass numbers instead of few, I received a single direct message thread from a fake (some sort of) customer service account on the direct message section where "they" claimed if my account would eventually suspended if I didn't do certain tasks which "they" specifically give to me, and "they" also sent me a random Google Drive link of an unknown file which I didn't even check it due to the fact I immediately deleted the entire direct message chat itself anyway, particularly in order to save my account from getting banned or hacked... This also reminded me to those times when I used to receive those of the SMS inbox message threads, which particularly claimed if I won IDR 500.000 (❔) from (supposedly) those of the popular marketplaces including that one where that particular unknown fake customer service itself used to exist there. They also even provided me those links that redirected to their fake Blogspot "winner" websites instead of redirected directly into their official sites from those online marketplaces, though they clearly stated if they don't do certain stuffs like so outside their official events from themselves. Those fake Blogspot websites also provided those WhatsApp numbers led to those of their following scammer syndicates, which roughly using the same scamming method like those online Instagram scams that I also mentioned earlier.

Well then, there's not much that I particularly say about this apart from the fact you MUST avoid them at all costs. If you suddenly caught those of the unknown phone call numbers especially outside WhatsApp, DO NOT call them unless if they're from the trusted source, or specifically from people that you know through your own phone app or contacts app. As always, pay FULL attention when it comes to dealing with one of these even if I already being a victim for few of those, because like majority of those scammers out there, you definitely don't want to lose your bucks over those simply for nothing.

The "death" of my two old 💻's hard disk drives...

You probably remember the time when I used to own both of those following 💻s before I own my current one (Lenovo), which those were both 13" Dell and Samsung, respectively... Since both of them were no longer work properly, I decided to take each of their own hard disk drives from them both in order to retrieve MANY of my old archived files from it. However, they both suddenly had their own problem where I was attempted to connect them to my current 💻 using the USB SATA cable, therefore I no longer able to retrieve ALL of my old archived files from them both anymore. Without further ado, let me explain both of those hard drives that came from both of those old 💻, right away.

A. Western Digital 500 GB (13" Dell)

Started off with this particular Western Digital 500 GB one. This was the one that originally came with that ancient 13" Dell 💻 that I stupidly wasted a lot of bucks from 6 years ago. At first glance, it worked reasonably fine, including by how I connected to my current 💻 using the SATA USB cable roughly after a while later since the Dell's LCD backlight screen died. However, somewhere in the last year, it suddenly ran into a problem where it simply bogged down for a whole lot, which caused it painfully slow to load everything on my current 💻's screen, specifically on the Windows Explorer. I tried many ways in order to fix it, but it barely did anything. Right now, I still keep it despite the current state that it has, but I don't think if I eventually decide to plug it on my current 💻 though for the umpteenth time.

B. Toshiba 320 GB (Samsung)

And then, there's this particular Toshiba 320 GB, which originally came from my old Samsung that I purchased back in 2013 (which also replaced my very first laptop, which was that Acer, though the condition of that Acer was okay apart from that weird BSOD itself which I already explained in some of my older Blogspot articles before)... Right after the original LCD screen itself went all white (which was unrepairable, with how the screen's bezel itself was also broken on one of the hinges), I decided to take the hard disk drive itself out from it and connected it to my current 💻 using the SATA USB cable, though I had a lot of "effort" for removing it from my old 💻's hard disk drive's slot thanks to all of those screws that originally screwed it in there. Similarly to that Western Digital one, it used to work reasonably okay, either during the old 💻 that used to equip it was working on it's own for years, or during I connected it to to my current 💻 using the SATA USB cable...... until it suddenly ran into a problem in similar fashion to that Western Digital too, except it now no longer getting recognized with my current 💻. During it occurred, I was attempted to check ALL of my old archived files on it, and then Windows Explorer on my current 💻 suddenly froze instead. Instead of restarting the Windows Explorer during it was in "Not Responding" state, I stupidly unplug the hard drive itself RIGHT in that exact state❗ Because of that, it simply no longer getting recognized with my current 💻. I tried many ways in order to fix it, but it obviously didn't do anything at all, yet it also makes some weird ticking noises from it too when this occurred.

(notice for how severely crooked the 💻's screen is...)

Well then, there you have it for both of those old 💻 hard disk drives that were once worked, but now both of them have their problems that I couldn't even fix them purely by myself. If you know about how to repair them (though it's nearly impossible to fix them both), please let me know particularly about it in the comments section if you're able to. That's basically it for what I could particularly say about this, and pay attention when it comes to treating one of those old physical storage devices like those, otherwise they will end up like both of those that I mentioned there.

my Android 📱's performance suddenly did this... (and eventually...)

After that one occurrence where my 6 year old Android 📱 suddenly got it's own original 🔋 just inflated by itself in the last year which I was able to troubleshoot it, but then in this year, it's own performance suddenly went totally dropped where my 📱's entire old Android 9 (🥧) operating system just lagged horribly. Seriously, it's own entire operating system literally did so because I was once opened one of the random apps which I rarely used it for a while, but then it suddenly led into the aforementioned problem itself which I couldn't even get rid of it by myself... Well then, it's time to find the actual truth about how come if it suddenly occurred initially like so, until how I was able to troubleshoot the problem itself later on.

As what I clearly mentioned just earlier, I was once opened one of the random apps that I rarely used it for a while (for this case, it was one of those random floating browser apps that I was officially installed on it from the Play Store). The reason about how come if I decided to open the aforementioned app itself, it's purely because I was so bored, simple as that... However, right when I demonstrated the app's key feature of it, instead of working properly as what it should be, it just caused my entire 📱 just lagged absurdly by all of the sudden. This particular sudden total lag problem literally existed, even if I already uninstalled the aforementioned app that probably caused this to occur initially. It also made the matters worse, no matter if I kept restarting it numerous times, deleting unnecessary files on it's own internal storage, installing some antivirus and cleaner apps on it, or tweaking some stuffs on it's own settings (precisely on it's own developer options section), this particular problem always returned by itself after roughly several minutes depending on which apps or mobile games that I opened (ranging from those of the light ones, until all the way to those of the heavy ones), or on the worst cases, it occurred by itself during it was on standby. During this occurred, it literally struggled severely to open almost any apps or any mobile games that I tried to open them specifically on it (which either they went unresponsive or they just crashed instead), and so for it's own System UI itself. It also caused my 📱's back part of it went overheated as well, but it was mildly less compared to those times when it used to equip with it's own original 🔋 that got suddenly inflated in the last year though.

Even if this lag problem existed, but I just found out about how come if my 📱 suddenly did this by all of the sudden. It turned out if certain system background apps literally bloated almost my entire 📱's RAM for severely odd reasons, which I was able to check it from one of the options of it's own developer options despite it's unresponsive state that it had, specifically right during I tried to access the aforementioned section itself... However, I was able to fully troubleshoot it by bringing it into the same service center where I used to replace it's own original 🔋 with the better one in the last year, by simply resetting it's own entire Android operating system itself back to it's factory settings for relatively cheap price (which was exactly IDR 50.000 for doing so). Though I obviously lost all of my own data and all of those progresses that I saved on it's own internal storage, but I was able to restore whatever else that I used to do those stuffs that I usually do on it, but not all of them though (unless everything on it is all set already as of today). Well, that simply concluded about how the problem itself that was initially occurred from (supposed to be) that one random app, until all the way to how I was able to fix it by resetting the entire 📱's operating system itself back to it's factory settings. 

As of today, it now works fairly 🆗 as if it was brand 🆕 from 6 years ago. Unfortunately though, according to the repairman who repaired this in his own service center, the entire old Android 9 operating system itself that is installed specifically on this 📱 will definitely obsolete roughly in the next year (or two). Because of this particular statement that he specifically said so to me, I don't think if I will decide to get a brand 🆕 Android 📱 with newer Android operating system(s) once this 📱 no longer support it's own old Android operating system soon (unless if he would able to install custom Android operating system on it [such as something like Lineage OS, CMIIW], but I highly doubt it)............ Only the time will tell about the actual truth particularly about this once it will happens soon.

in memoriam with that person from my entire family...🥀

Well, it's time to share some of my own stories particularly about my good old days with one of the members from my entire family (preferably from my mom's side) that was once existed since I was born, and then he recently passed away due to the fact he suddenly got a fatal disease. Without further ado, let me share my own stories particularly about my good old days with him in general, ranging from those days when I was a kid, until all the way to final moments with him before he passed away...

A. My childhood times with him...

Back when I was a kid, I was hanging around with him for roughly many times, including my grandma that was also once existed back in those days. Those were the sweet times overall, with an exception about how come if I ever broke his old Sony Ericcsson feature phone with monochrome screens that he newly purchased it in ~2006 by slamming it to the floor of my childhood house, especially when there was an incoming SMS with it's own ringtone. Sure, I was once got annoyed by the ringtone itself, but thankfully, he didn't feel really that mad on me when I particularly did that though.

Although I was able to meet him many times in my childhood house, he was once had some random jobs somewhere in Malaysia for few years right after roughly two years after that time where I broke his aforementioned phone, until he decided to return back into Indonesia, specifically in my hometown where I do live. He decided to do so in order to marry his wife in 2011, and then they both took a birth of their first children several years later, followed by how they also took a birth to their second children right after the previous one several years later too.

B. In relation of my YouTube channel of fans...

When it comes to the relation of my YouTube channel of fans, there's not much else that I could say to him apart from the fact he had fairly good treatment with all of the electric fans that they own around my entire family since past several years, specifically from mine and those that was once used to be in my childhood house (back when my grandma used to exist). He was also a relatively good helper when it comes to installing certain of my fans, including some of my mini ceiling fans that I ever installed in the back porch of my old house (and so for that one [not so] mini ceiling fan that he also installed it in my current compact house where I'm currently settling in nowadays since almost a year ago). Overall, he was a reasonably crucial person when it comes to this in general, and so for how he somehow able to fix some broken fans with his own hands quite well too.

C. His local jobs...

Believe or not, he also had another job during he decided to settle in my hometown where I do live since I was born, which was making lots of homemade TV antennas out from metal sticks, metal sheets, and PVC pipes... FYI, he used to work in a large house that was once owned by a Chinese couple, although his legitimate wife was passed away firstly in 2014. During those times, he made lots of those TV antennas in order to sell them for relatively cheap price to the legitimate owner of that particular house. Even though he didn't earn that much bucks from those, but it was worth his job in order to satisfy some customers who used to buy those TV antennas that he made in there, and so for how he was able to find some bucks for his own mini family too...  📺📡

After the aforementioned owner of that large house was passed away in the late of 2023, he obviously lost his aforementioned job for a moment, and then he decided to switch his job into stone worker, which unfortunately earned way less amount of bucks compared to his previous job. Because of that, his mental suddenly felt out of control, which led to his disease which just caused from all of his mental stresses that he had in that exact state, unfortunately. 

D. Final moments with him...🥀

Unfortunately, this particular section clearly explains about how come he passed away due to his fatal disease that he had... Before he got hospitalized, he suddenly felt some pain on his heart (and followed by how he felt really hard to breathe most of the time), and he decided to visit the hospital by himself with his own motorcycle. Then, after he entered the emergency department for few days, he immediately got sent into surgery room in order to have some surgery to his heart. After he did the aforementioned surgery, he eventually got sent into the ICU room for additional recovery from the said surgery. However, things weren't look and sound great when it comes to recovering him in general, although he used to look quite normal at first, considered if he had to wear an oxygen respirator right in front of his nose all the time during he took a long rest in that particular room. 🏥

Things were getting much intense once he had unexpected actions during he had those of the aforementioned recoveries of his health in that room, especially about how come if he was able to recklessly REMOVE the aforementioned respirator bunch of times by himself specifically with his hands, resulting in his worse condition of his health overall. This was occurred due to the fact he wanted to go home quicker, especially about how come if he would want to see his wife and all of their beloved little children too after this particular disaster occurring on him... It also made the matters worse, every single time certain visitors from my entire family (including my mom) were attempted to consume certain food and beverages on his mouth in that exact state, he would eventually threw up numerous times, thus it led to even worse condition of himself that totally harmed his health entirely. 💉💊

After almost two weeks of him being hospitalized, my mom and I got a bad news from most of those doctors who works in there. They said if he ran into a fatal state where he had some sort of heart stroke, followed by how his blood just clumped into his brain, which they also concluded if they were totally impossible to revive him back to his former state... Not too long after my mom visited him in THAT particular deadly state (along with my dad, my uncle, my aunt, and some members of my entire family)............ they also said if he eventually passed away................ After he passed away, they brought the corpse of himself into his funeral home using a corpse car from that hospital. Lastly, I, certain members around my family, and many of his neighborhood around that village where he used to live were brought and buried his coffin contained his corpse to the graveyard nearest from their current house where they're currently settling in. 🥀⚰

My deepest condolences to that particular section of my entire family who recently lost their dad, but that also throwbacks me to those times where I suddenly lost my grandma in 2017. She also hospitalized in the same place as him, except she had completely different disease before she lost it's life. Even then, she also even got hospitalized in different hospital in around the late of 2016 before that one occurred few months later... This is also one of my highly traumatic moments in my entire life ever, especially about what if it'll also occur to both of my parents anytime and anywhere soon, considered if my mental is still not ready for basically everything that I must do in the future for now on. 🥀

My thoughts about YouTube vs. any ad blockers...⚠

Recently, I received this exact serious warning during I tried to watch all kinds of YouTube videos, specifically on the web version of it with an ad blocker extension that I literally installed in each of my 💻's browsers since several years ago. However, instead of me watching them like it normally should be without all of those video ads, I immediately got greeted with that aforementioned warning where I MUST disable the ad blocker extension itself, otherwise I would ended up violating their own terms of service if I would recklessly doing so... Well, before I explain about this particular situation, I already explained it somehow in one of my older articles that partially explained about dealing with any kinds of random video ads that I ever seen them on YouTube in general (both 💻 and 📱 versions), particularly about any kinds of video ads that I ever encountered on them every single time I watch any YouTube contents.

Before I explain about the current situation about it shortly, let me explain them again particularly about what kinds of video ads that usually appears these days from my perspective (specifically right after I disabled the ad blocker, and so for specifically from our country [ID]), even though I also encountered them in both 📱 and 📺 versions of them too. Ranging from not-so-annoying ones, until all the way to the most annoying ones, so here are my lists of themselves, right away:

a. Not-so-annoying 👌

• Skippable ads from any sort of community centers around our country (such as Qur'an learning centers, certain donations from certain communities, etc.),
• Skippable ads from certain ads that are somewhat relevant to my own content (for this case, air conditioner ads, albeit if they're extremely hard to come by since the last one that I encountered back from few years ago, even if I didn't log in to my own account),
• Skippable ads from certain movie trailers (for this case, movie trailers from Netflix and Prime Video, if I guessed the latter one right),
• Skippable music video ads from random music band performers out there, either from our country or foreign ones, albeit they're somewhat hard to come by from my own perspective (even if I recently listening to certain music videos that I enjoy though), and
• Some random unrecognizable skippable video ads from certain foreign sources, even if they are somewhat uncommon to encounter them randomly.

b. Mid 🙁

• Skippable ads of any modern day video games and certain popular mobile apps (most commonly are the online marketplaces, trading apps, online taxi apps, etc.),
• Skippable ads of any random products that they sell on certain online marketplace (which most of them are usually appears casually on the TVC), and
• Skippable ads of any gadgets (most commonly flagship devices from any popular brands)

c. Annoying 🤬

The answer of it is truly obvious, ANY of the dreaded UNSKIPPABLE video ads. 

Now, "How's your thoughts exclusively about when it comes to this particular current situation where YouTube recently decided to do this indeed, exclusively in the web version of them with their own ad blocker extensions installed on every single users out there?"... Well, there's nothing else that I could particularly say apart from the fact I must deal with them anyway no matter what, apart from the fact it somehow helps each of the YouTuber's revenue for a bit (especially for majority of not-so-popular YouTubers with extremely low income of the said revenue itself per each of the channels around the entire world, including my own channel with ~6K of subscribers). Well, that's one of my assumptions about it then, because there's no absolute difference between those days before they deliberately did this and these days right after they did this on purpose indeed, it's due to the fact my own YouTube's channel revenue keeps dropping down the amount of it's own passive income since roughly last 2 years, thanks to how the overall amount of views on my own entire YouTube channel also severely decreased as well, unlike several of my own videos that I uploaded from more than approximately 3 years ago. Yes, you can watch those of my older YouTube videos that I published from then, but again, that doesn't help by how both of the said revenue and the said views are drastically lowered overtime like so, or on the worst cases, it sometimes eventually doing so all the way down to almost 0, TBH.

Watching an air conditioner ad before I watch my own YouTube videos... (Note: Indonesian languages and this was taken from few years ago, even if I didn't log in to my own Google account though)

As for the ways about how I watch all kinds of YouTube videos from either 💻, 📱, and 📺 platforms these days, there's nothing difference apart from the fact I must deal with all of the ads that are mad commonly appears in there (including many of the unskippable ones, because they do), especially in the beginning or the endpoint of any YouTube videos that I watch (or even those of the mid-rolls, specifically for any of the aforementioned videos that has approximately 8 minutes of length or more). However, I found the way about how come if I can watch majority of them without getting annoyed by all of those ads, except I only did it exclusively in the 📱 version (specifically for Android versions). I couldn't tell you about what kinds of those third-party apps where you can watch YouTube videos without all of those video ads, but most of the apps are literally available out there, and you can even able to log in your own Google account on any of them without any issues (unless if most of the apps just log out once you close the whole app itself though, so be careful for using one of those third-party apps anyway). Even if you can watch YouTube videos without any of those annoying video ads, you definitely somehow deal with plethora of banner ads that are commonly appear in there instead...... or even those of the independent video ads or interactive ads that might appear every single time when you open each of the apps, which most of them are indeed unskippable (you have to wait it for n seconds until the said ads themselves ends, then you can close it either way).

Well, there you have it for the latest update about how's going on with the 💻 version of the YouTube in general, particularly when it comes to dealing with ANY of the ad blockers that are installed in everyone's browsers, including me. I don't know if this might be somewhat helpful for majority of not-so-popular creators or not, because that's definitely the sole reason about how come my own YouTube channel with ~6K subscribers recently has both views and revenue are drastically decreased in past 2 years. If you have some sort of your own "unskippable video ad problems" when it comes to watching any of YouTube videos from your own perspective as an audience, feel free to share your own thoughts particularly about it in the comments section if you're able to. That's it for what I could particularly say about this recent situation exclusively about YouTube, and hope you can pay full attention when it comes to dealing them, otherwise you would ended up violating their own terms of service if you keep recklessly doing so no matter what.

Archive: Me vs. electric fan enthusiasts... Sort of (2015)

Even though I do post tons of my own electric fans in my dedicated YouTube channel of themselves since I made my own channel of themselves since almost a decade ago, I actually had one of my worst experience with them in my good old days with them, being the one that I'm talking about here was the worst one that I ever experienced, yet it would be the great way to terminate my own YouTube channel by that one loyal fan enthusiasts that wasn't from the same country where I do live, due to the fact I was doing something wrong with that one special enthusiast which causing he literally noticed me in order not to do it further, or else he will ended up terminating my own channel if I would doing so recklessly... Well, it's time to reveal my short story about how come if I ended up having the aforementioned problem which caused he almost decided to do the said serious action to my own channel.

As usual, I watched all kinds of electric fan videos on YouTube in those times around the whole world, ranging from the local ones from our country, until all the way to the ones that aren't from our country... However, I always bothered by that one special fan enthusiast from Malaysia with all of his nonsense comments (which turned out if he IS actually that special, judging by how he is still existed until today with his current YouTube channel that he has), which caused me decided to reply him with my own "bully" comments to him in order to stop it, many times in a row. Until he replied to various comments who commented on vast majority of vintage ceiling fan videos by one of the loyal fan enthusiasts from the United States, I kept "bullying" on him in order not to do it repeatedly. Of course HE noticed me instead of him with HIS obvious reason about why, because I kept harshly "bullied" to him out of control which caused HE disrespected me by simply terminating my own channel if I would recklessly do it even more.

With by how that particular fan enthusiast from United States took me HIS said serious action for NOT doing it further, I finally regretted it for not doing so at all costs in order to save my own channel for being terminated by HIM. This was also my turning point for me to finally stop "bullying" that one special enthusiast from Malaysia, even if he still exists since then until today. I had to shut up for a moment by how that particular fan enthusiast from United States TOTALLY warned to me with all of HIS warning sentences from HIM, which I ended up learned the lesson for NOT "bullying" him even further through one of my posts that I posted on Google+ that was once existed. Well, even though this particular story literally ended up there, but in the meantime HE learned me the lesson particularly like so, I almost s****** myself due to how I proven guilty to them both with all of those problems going on from one way to another specifically like so... Yep, after all of that occurred initially by myself to him, I finally learned the lesson for NOT absurdly doing so all over again since HE TOTALLY warned me, because I also realized if that one special fan enthusiast from Malaysia has an obvious disability by how he obviously can't hear anything apart from all of his own special gestures that he showed in his older videos of him in his old YouTube channel, before it got terminated several months ago by all of the sudden... 

Anyway, for the bonus for this article, something that is off-topic related to this particular article, because there was a random woman who constantly commented something with some sort of conflicts going on, yet she repeatedly doing those to the same enthusiast from the United States who learned me the lesson for NOT "bullying" that special fan enthusiast from Malaysia... I obviously didn't have a clue about what was going on with her, it's because I occasionally checked his Instagram account of him, her comments were almost everywhere on most of his own vintage ceiling fan acquisition pictures taken by him with all of her certain provoked words and sentences. Some people who commented on his pictures were unbearable to him, so he probably took a serious action by terminating her account (even though I didn't have a clue about what was going on with her after all of that occurred anyway).

Well then, pay an obvious attention when it comes to this, because no matter how much hate that you will do it to certain people that you simply don't like, sometimes there are certain people who just disrespects to you if you keep doing it out of control to themselves from their sides, even if they aren't knowing about what are you specifically doing so to themselves in the first place... Anyway, that's it for what I could say to this archived article of this. Be kind, respect, and support each other even with all of their own respective weaknesses from every aspects that they have, even if I obviously have a lot of weaknesses on every aspects that I particularly own for sure... For those two aforementioned fan enthusiasts that I mentioned there, I apologize for what I made a grave mistake specifically like those, even it was occurred from around 8 years ago. It was all my fault for doing all of that; it's because I didn't mean to make both of you went insane to myself during that occurred, it's due to I originally meant to learn a lesson from one of them in order to make him smarter than he used to, albeit I did it in such a wrong way to do so either way.

MEGA SPAM'N SCAM YOUTUBE COMMENTS ON POPULAR CHANNELS... (feat. Telegram)

This has nothing to do with both of my own YouTube channels that I particularly own due to the fact I never receive any kinds of mass spam comments like so. However, every single time I watch any contents from certain YouTubers with tons of subscribers (approximately more than 100K), I always bothered by all of that next-level MASS SPAM replies by EVERY SINGLE counterfeit accounts who commented on almost ALL popular videos from the said content creators. It also makes it even better, because every single on each of them who MASS SPAM themselves do have a word "Telegram" on themselves. Which means, they actually doing their mega perilous giveaway SCAM on Telegram in order to bait every single victims from YouTube out there to the aforementioned social media that they redirected into. Well, without further ado, let me explain about my short story about how come if this particular MEGA problem that recently occurs on YouTube with all of those wild perilous giveaway scam comment replies that ALWAYS occur on each of the random users who commented on EVERY SINGLE YouTubers with tons of subscribers.

As usual, I casually watched many of YouTube videos. Ranging from contents from various channels that has less than 100K subscribers, until all the way to the ones who have more than 100K subscribers. Until somewhere in past few months during I scrolled down to the comments section of a video by one of those popular YouTubers that I'm explaining about, I encountered MEGA TON of "sus" replies from MEGA TON of counterfeit accounts nicknamed of the same name as the name of the said channel that I watched, specifically from random people who "replied" them into. They "praised" to them if they won a giveaway based of the items that each of the popular YouTubers featured in any kind of forms per each of the channel's genre, respectively. Not only the fact they LITERALLY copy pasted both exact name and exact user profile that they stole, each of them also had word "Telegram" on majority of them as well. Again, they actually doing the aforementioned SCAM on Telegram in order to bait every single victims from YouTube out there to it in order to "win" the giveaway through their direct chats associated with them, even if most of the legit creators clearly stated if they NEVER claim any form of official giveaway like what they recently did.

According to somebody who investigated in one of these mega scams between YouTube and Telegram (even he wasn't a popular YouTuber who has more than 500K subscribers on his own channel), in order to win a "giveaway" from one of those anonymous culprits behind BILLION of those spam replies from MEGA TON of those accounts that they made on MANY of those videos from various popular YouTubers around the world, he would transfer approximately 113 bucks of the overall cost of their "items" plus shipping fee to themselves. Call me crazy, but I'm not really genius enough to binge guessing about what kind of "items" that they would "sent" to him, because of course I already guessed if they literally doing the said scams instead, simple as that. So that concludes if ANY of those YouTube-Telegram giveaway stuff b*****s are NOT F****** TRUE AT ALL!!!

Well then, there's not what I could particularly say to this, yet I would say this is definitely the biggest YouTube scams that I ever encountered in my entire life, even if I'm not involved by any of those yet since it initially occurred until today... As usual, pay FULL attention when it comes to how to deal with one of those accursed scam f*****s once you already commented on one of those videos from popular YouTubers. Once one of those scammers immediately replied like so, simply delete it at all costs. Or, just report them as an unwanted spam if you're able to, albeit they still able to reply them with their massive sets containing those of the spam and scam comment replies back with a vengeance... (Sigh)

Bad experience with so-called "mini air cooler"...❄

Being an electric fan enthusiast in general, I also somehow interested with any of mini portable fans that I encountered, ranging from regular mini portable fans that are commonly seen at any online marketplaces (or even offline marketplaces), until all the way to certain mini portable fans that they do look so "cool"... I mean, yes I encountered those of the said mini portable fans that are so "cool", it's because the ones that I'm specifically talking about in this particular article are the ones that they always call them as a "mini air cooler" units, literally. You probably think if most of those so-called "mini air coolers" do work better than regular mini portable fans? Here is my hint particularly about them: NO! Well, it's time to find out about why, particularly about my own story about experience of using one of those "mini air cooler" units, until I decided to gave up using it anymore. ❄

1. Purchasing the aforementioned unit...❄

Before I purchased one of those units from an online marketplace, I actually watched bunch of those reviews particularly about those little units from various YouTubers. In the meantime before I purchased one of those units, there were 2 variants of themselves, and they both were manufactured and distributed under their "Arctic Air" so-called brand names on both of them. One of them was the original unit, and the other one was the "Ultra" version of it too. So, without any hesitation about which one that I would purchase, I chose the "Ultra" version by spending almost 6 bucks for it including shipping fee. After I waited for almost a week of delivery, a courier sent me the aforementioned package that contained it inside. ❄

2. Unboxing...❄

Upon I unboxed it, it turned out if I actually received a knock-off version of it, judging by how the box itself looked so different compared to their OEM versions of themselves (which I didn't even surprise me that much, because majority of the people in our country who also owns those little units are also received the same knock-off versions of themselves, even most of them had their brand names of themselves are different)... It also had a different style of the filter container as well, because the OEM version of them had more detailed looking container, meanwhile for the one that I received just simply had dull looking appearance of it. It even also had broken adjustable vanes on it too, but I was able to fix them just 🆗... Those minor problems aside, I decided to power it for the first time using it's own proprietary USB cable that came with it by simply connecting it on one of my phone chargers, then pressing the power button itself. At first glance, I thought it wouldn't work at all which resulting in waste of the said bucks over it, it actually worked just fine after I waited for few seconds right after I plugged it on one of my phone chargers that I have. However, if I left it plugged in for too long, my phone charger eventually warmed up, yet it warmed slightly more than powering majority my regular mini portable fans that I own using it. ❄

3. The "air cooling" feature...❄

Since this particular unit had an "air cooling" feature, I decided to pour some water and ice cubes on the water tank of the unit itself. Of course it dripped to the bottom part of the unit itself, that's literally because there was a tiny hole that literally presented inside the tank itself, so I had some DIY stuff by covering it with some "tapes" and superglue, and it did work just okay even if there were even more of the drips though... As for the so-called "air cooling" feature that it had, it literally sprayed out all of the water and ice cubes through that little misting component, then it sprayed out with a bit of help from that 12v/DC cooling fan that came with it in order to blow all of that moisture out from the unit itself through the filters and all of those adjustable vanes. This was also the turning point about how I finally realized if I found out the actual truth particularly about how "cool" it was. ❄

To begin with, unlike my mini portable fans that they do simply work like it should with their own fan blades that it had, it almost barely blow any air delivery, even if I put some water and ice cubes on it's own water tank, unless if I had to stand or sit right next to it approximately less than few centimeters away from the unit itself, especially during if I sweated for a whole lot... Furthermore, the way how they put that 12v/DC cooling fan inside it also made it sounded so loud, more so than average mini portable fans that I own. Encased inside cheap plastic box also made it even more "cooler" than how it would perform, because the cooling fan itself ran slower as you would expect, even if I tried to run it on full speed all the time... Moreover, even if it had a little misting component in order to spray all of that water and ice cubes out from the tank, it also didn't seem that powerful enough for cool down anything after few centimeters away (unless if the misting component itself was placed in front of the unit itself like most of the other models of those mini "air cooler" things)... It even also a complete waste of certain stuffs as well, especially the way how it emptied out all of the water from it's own water tank already, so I had to serve even more water and ice cubes if that occurred to "cool" it more, it literally because it did NOT have an evaporating component AT ALL. ❄

4. Final times with it...❄

After a while I used it as an underpowered daily beater since I purchased it, it eventually ran into a major problem where it's own USB proprietary cable got eaten by stupid mice. So, that was basically it, even if I clearly promised in the outro part of my YouTube video of me unboxing the whole unit itself in order to make my additional demonstration of it about how it performs "cooler" with water and ice cubes in it... That simply concluded if I totally failed to make my aforementioned video about it in general, which also resulting it in a short hiatus for not using it for few moments later, until I decided to buy some proprietary USB cables from an online marketplace. ❄

Upon I powered it back up, I noticed if it ran way slower than before, even if I didn't bother to put water and ice cubes on it. This was also the time if I decided to tear the whole thing apart, and I messed around with that little PCB module that was located just beneath those speed indicator lights, power button, and light button to turn on and off colorful LED light that was located right behind the water tank itself... I decided to mess around the module itself to make the fan itself run faster by powering it directly using 12v/DC adapter, but it ended up causing the module itself just warmed a lot quicker than usual 5v/DC ones that it originally had. Not too long after I did so, I eventually "powered" it again, except I did that into some sort of inverter component that causing the whole module itself shorted, thus completely killed the whole module itself. Even if I killed the said module, I was able to salvage the 12v/DC cooling fan that came with it, it did work just fine with the 12v/DC adapter, albeit it also caused the fan itself to warm up so quickly as well. Not too long after I successfully powered it, the instant karma suddenly occurred on me due to the fact I accidently broke one of the blades after I accidently made it fell near to the heavyweight marble tissue tray that is placed on the top of my living room's table! So that was it, no more purpose of using it anymore after I broke it off, even if I tried to "fix" it, but it obviously didn't work at all... As for what's left from the unit itself, I got rid all of those plastic pieces by smashing them to bits, then I also set them ablaze as well. Even if I got rid all of those pieces, I actually salvaged all of those screws that used to hold the cooling fan itself though before I got rid them, except for one of them that was badly rusted. With all of that final riddance, that was the complete end of me using the unit itself in general. ❄

That concludes about my experience with that so-called "mini air cooler" unit. I don't think if I can get another one of those little units that is way better than that, it's because I already found the actual truth if it didn't seem to work as what they "advertised", specifically for those of the cheaper variants of themselves. Even if I no longer own it anymore, I did some in-depth research about how "cool" those little units are from various YouTubers, and they also realized if those little units are suck balls... Anyway, back to the unit itself that I got rid of. Waste of money, waste of resources, and waste of all of my useless efforts in order to make it "cooler", but it turned out if it led to even more "cooler" problems that caused it stopped working afterwards. So, that's particularly it for what I could say to this overall experience with one of those so-called "mini air cooler" units... Lesson learned: just get regular mini portable fans or just simply get one of those DC cooling fans for much cheaper price. If you really want to cool down your room, just buy and install an actual air conditioner if you're able to. Or, you can make your own homemade air cooler that probably works better than one of those little units out there. 

Well then, that's it for what I told about my overall experience with one of those little units, and pay full attention when you will eventually deal with one of those things out there. ❄

Unexpected moments with my Plants vs. Zombies 2...🎮📱

Well, it's been a while since I didn't explain about my Plants vs. Zombies video game series that I have in my own devices that I play, so I decided to explain about something unexpected that was once occurred on Plants vs. Zombies 2, particularly in my Android phone that I still own since few years ago until today. Yes, I did encounter some of my pure joy playing that particular Plants vs. Zombies video game since more than a decade ago, but I did spot one of them that almost made me lost everything on that particular game, but I did able to retrieve my whole backup data of it later on. Without further ado, let me reveal my short story about how come if I almost lose everything on it, right away. 👌

Basically, I had some stuff by looking at some junkies on Google Files. Upon I opened the app itself on my phone, I spotted many of the files which it referred as the ones that they need to delete them in order to free up my phone's internal storage space... Majority of them that it spotted were random files in various file formats, and random downloaded videos that are literally from some of those popular video sharing social medias that aren't YouTube based. There's also bunch of random video ads that also somehow downloaded in there too, which I also didn't surprise whether if I watched bunch of those random video ads from various apps that I used or any games that I played just before, they somehow downloaded them too without me noticing it until I realized by opening the Google Files to reveal the actual truth about them that lurks behind. 📁

🆗, back to the main topic of this particular article that I'm explaining right now... Right after I deleted majority of those junkies using that aforementioned file manager by Google there, I suddenly realized if I accidently deleted most of the core files that belongs to my Plants vs. Zombies 2 game that is clearly installed on my phone, including the kernel file of the whole game itself. Of course, I opened the game right after I did so, everything was reset into square one... yes, SQUARE ONE! Which means, I had to start all over again from very beginning of the game! I had a lot of trials and errors in order to retrieve my whole game's backup data back during this occurred accidently by myself using my phone's built-in file manager, but it didn't even work at all, unless I had to open another file manager in order to retrieve all of those back by simply replacing the existing kernel file of the whole game itself with a better one (instead of making duplicate with a number after the name of the kernel file itself, which clearly doesn't work at all), or even acquiring another kernel file that had everything unlocked to the max in the whole game itself online. 🤦‍♂️

During that happens, I almost lose my faith of me playing the particular game, until I decided to report this to EA website by showing myself my own player ID that is clearly stated on my Android phone by sending my own guest e-mail to themselves. Since I obviously didn't have my own EA account, I had to do so by sending it as a guest account in order to request it either way...  A few moments later, I decided to open the whole game itself, and it introduced me with a lot of duplicates of the player accounts on player list nicknamed myself. One of them was the one that had everything since I played it since early of 2015 (during the time I played it using my previous Android phone that I used to have), so I selected it then voila! There's my own backup data of the whole game that I was looking for! Not only the fact I was able to retrieve it back in general, I also shockingly surprised about how come if it automatically "hoarded" certain resources that I have in the game itself as well, ranging from approximately 8M coins, 10K gems, and even ~100* gauntlets! Well then, I was able to retrieve it back like so, even if I literally "hoarded" all of certain resources that I own there also, unless I already wasted any of them for buying certain stuffs in there. 😄

* means I had no clue if I counted that just right...

Well, there you have it for my short story that literally explains about that one unexpected moments that occurred sometime ago, particularly about the Plants vs. Zombies 2 video game that is installed in my Android device that I own since I acquired it few years ago until today. If you're also experiencing one of these unexpected problems like this on your mobile devices, feel free to let me know particularly about your story related to this particular article in the comments. Anyway, that's basically it for what I could explain the whole short story particularly about that, and pay attention when it comes to how you'll manage it without any accidents like what I unexpectedly did there. 🙏

Summary of the SCAMS that I experienced...💸💸💸💸💸

 "If there's something that is too good to be true, then it totally isn't true..."

As every wise people said, yes, that's basically the one and the only sentence that is related to what I'm explaining on this particular article this time, which is literally explaining about any kind of scams that I literally fell for each of them, mainly for the ones that I simply lost my money over those scammers... I already explained about few of the scams that I exposed from my two separate article that I made just earlier. Now, I think it's time for me to reveal more of the scams that I also experienced from the past (including the ones that I already exposed from my previous articles about them), yet I will reveal the initial names of each of the culprits who scammed myself in each of the occurrence as well, particularly from the ones that were occurred from our country. Without further ado, let's take a look at my overall summary of what kind of scams that I fell on each of them, shall we?

1. Investment scam...💸

Courtesy: Freepik.com

Culprit name: B-L (which technically it was one of the fake B-L accounts that I encountered on Instagram)

This was technically my first scam that I ever experienced, which was I got scammed by a random investment scam by one of those counterfeit Instagram accounts that was technically a fake account nicknamed of that one popular entrepreneur in our country, which was B-L... I discovered this particular account due to the fact my mom literally pointed at this particular account in order to solve certain financial problems that we both were dealing in those times, then we both decided to take some calls with the fake B-L. Then, he decided to do some "rules" in order to do his own f****** thing by transferring approximately around IDR 700.000 to him. After I transferred that particular amount of money that I transferred into him yet I had some conversation between myself and him through the chat, and of course you probably guessed it... He literally blocked us right after few moments later! So, that was it, and obviously there was no way to track that particular scammer anymore.

2. Scammed again over a steal price of a "mega" fancy 💻...💸

Culprit name: M-I-M (which basically it was one of the counterfeit Instagram online marketplace account who "sells" certain devices [i.e. flagship 📱, 💻, 📷, etc.])

As what I explained in one of the said post that literally explained about this particular scam, I literally fell for this particular scam due to my native stupidity that I did in those times, yet this was occurred by myself during the time that particular ancient 13" Dell 💻 that I stupidly bought from a legit online marketplace suddenly had it's own LCD screen died... Well, for some idiotic reason, I literally had an idea by "buying" another "replacement" for it from that one "seller" on Instagram for unbelievably steal price, which was from M-I-M. I literally looked at "her" gallery of what kind of 💻s that "she sells", then I decided to "pick" that particular fancy Apple 15" 💻. Before I "pick" that particular 💻, I previously looked at various other 💻s that "she sells" them online, until I decided to pick that one 💻 that I previously mentioned earlier... So, I decided to take some chat on M-I-M of certain things related to it, until I transferred approximately around IDR 500.000 to "her" through a someone's bank account instead of "her" name (which sounds like "she" hijacked that particular person's bank account)... After few moments later, I felt something suspicious behind it, because the fact right after M-I-M contacted myself through a chat, "she" said something to myself by contacting another person in order to continue my "order" of that particular 💻 that I wanted, but of course after M-I-M said so, "she" blocked me yet I simply lost the said amount of money that I transferred into "her"! Well, that concluded if I got scammed by one of those Instagram counterfeit online marketplaces, so I learned the lesson for totally NOT looking at one of those for ever.

During the time I had some conversation between myself and M-I-M, I checked the address of "her store", and it turned out if the address of "her place" itself just led to the empty lawn that was located somewhere in Riau, Indonesia (which was definitely fake as "her" f***)... As for the said scammer itself, yes, it was one of those online bandits that pretended to be an online marketplace who sells certain items (for this case, it was certain electronic devices that I mentioned earlier (i.e. 📱, 💻, 📷, etc.), but as soon as you "ordered" one of those items, you ended up in further problem if the item itself that you "ordered" had some issues for certain reasons that they usually tell to you, but of course it's completely NOT true at all (i.e., got stuck in some sort of customs, those items are black-marketed, etc.)...... This particular scammer of the said type wasn't only the one that I got scammed by, it's because the fact I saw another victim who got scammed by another one of those online bandits of the same kind, but under a different "store". He lost his money approximately over IDR 126.000.000!!! Definitely the jackpot for the scammer itself that he stole that much amount of money of what the particular victim itself transferred that amount of money to him!! HOLY F****** S***!!!!!! Not even any cops from our country were able to track down those scammer bandits like this, including myself with that scammer that I got scammed by.

3. Didn't win a giveaway from bunch of those mails...📨💸❓

Culprit name: E-S (a company, but I have no clue whether if this particular company is a legit company or not)

Another sort of scam that I experienced, yet I also explained already in my titular post that explained about this particular occurrence, which was how I didn't win a so-called giveaway that they "promoted" through those mails that I received from that particular company. In order to do it, I had to buy some random cheapo items that were literally costed several times cheaper than what they literally "offered" through every single mails that I received, then I decided to sent them back numerous times to them in order to win it, yet I also transferred a lot of money to them in order to buy every single items that they "offered" through those of the said mails... Until the fact I and my mom wasted a lot of money over this particular crap, so we both decided to stop it, even though they clearly said if we both almost won the grand prize of it.

4. Almost bought the thing that I wanted for much cheaper price, but...

Culprit name: L-J-S

This was occurred from one of the legit online marketplaces that I ever used, because I almost scammed by that one seller who sells one of the things that I wanted (for this case, it was some sort of so-called mini air cooler thing). I looked at the particular thing itself on that particular online marketplace, then I came across one of them that costed WAY cheaper than the average price of the said item that I wanted. So, I had some conversation between myself and that particular seller who sells it nicknamed L-J-S, then I placed an order and paying it using cash-on-delivery system for it... Right after I ordered it, I decided to take a look at the reviews about what kind of the item that he sent to any buyers who bought his items, and I was shocked if this particular seller sent them his f****** random items instead of what he literally listed for how cheap it was! Then, after few days later, I got a call from a random courier if he delivered the item that I ordered for, but I decided to reject it by simply not receive and pay it for obvious reasons. After that, the thing that I was ordered just went lost, yet his store just gone immediately as well upon this occurred... Well, at least I didn't scam by this one anyway, even if the price of the thing itself was way cheaper than the average cost of the said item itself that I wanted either way.

5. Almost "won" a "giveaway" from a SMS, but...📨

Courtesy: Freepik.com

Culprit name: Unknown

🆗, even bunch of the junk SMS in any form of frauds did count for this, because I almost fell for one of those scams if I won a giveaway through a junk SMS that the random scammer sent to me. It literally led to a wacky Blogspot page if I won a "giveaway" from a legit online marketplace, but truly is NOT true at all, it's because NONE of the legit online marketplaces did able to do that either way... Even though I obviously don't care about all of those junk SMS scams in general, I was once almost fell for one of them by simply looking at the wacky Blogspot page itself after I tapped the URL link on the said SMS itself that I received, until I had some conversation between myself and that particular scammer. The scammer itself literally had an obvious rule in order to "win" it, by transferring some money and reloading my phone's credit in order to do so... During the time I reloaded my phone's credit in a small cell phone store nearest from my current home, the owner of the cell phone store itself taught to myself in order to avoid it at all costs. He taught to me right after I almost reloading my phone's credit for approximately around IDR 300.000 for that. So, that saved me from this particular scam, although his workmate of the same cell phone store itself also received the same SMS junk scam if he also won a "giveaway", but he simply ignore it either way, then he deleted it off.

I even received even more of the same junk SMS scams like this (including the investment scams that I mentioned earlier), although I was able to do some conversation between me and any of those anonymous culprits, I annoyed themselves instead in various ways until they just simply blocked me... As of nowadays, I rarely receive any kinds of junk SMS scams like one of those though.

6. Online "affiliating academy" scam...💸

Culprit name: K-W-A (an entrepreneur, but I got scammed by the "affiliating academy" website of it)

In order to solve my major financial problems that I dealt in those days, but I just ended up in another scam, although it was possibly the least amount of my own money that I simply lost on it... This was also my second time my mom led to this particular scam without noticing the obvious perilous thing itself in the first place, because she simply shared a video to myself about how to earn money quicker by affiliating something through that "affiliating academy" website authored by that particular entrepreneur, nicknamed K-W-A. I checked a ton of videos of him showing his pride if he literally got a lot of money (I had no clue if it's true or not), and I was simply fell for it........ Until I ran into a problem if I had to follow some rules to do it in the website itself, I must transfer IDR 99.000 to K-W-A's bank account to unlock all of the so-called premium features in there (which I doubt it if it was his real bank account)... Unfortunately though, of course there was NO reaction from it at all if I actually got registered to do it further, even IF I already signed my main Google account on that too! Even if I also tried to transfer that particular amount of my own money to him like thrice times in order to unlock it, but it DIDN'T EVEN WORK!!! F***

Well then, there you have it for my overall summary of the dreaded scams that I experienced, being 4 of them were the ones that I caught by simply losing some of my own money over 4 of those scammers who did so to me... As every wise people said, if there's something that is too good to be true, then it is truly not true at all. Even though I got scammed 4 times like what I clearly stated here, I already learned the lesson for NOT fall for any kind of scams. As always, pay your FULL attention in order to avoid any kinds of scams that may happen sometime in the future, and thanks for reading this mega crucial article.

Yet another weird YouTube's bot comments...

This is possibly one of my shortest article post yet that I ever made on my whole Blogspot, but I will tell you about yet another bot comment spams that recently appears in every single of newly uploaded and published YouTube videos, including me. Last time, I encountered those "sus" YouTube's bot comments that were well-known for providing their shady links that leads to those wacky, dangerous hookup sites that would "kill" my devices or some sort of shady cyber crime behind them that always wants to conceal them away after every single of their actual actions to every victims, and now...... I got bunch of those aforementioned bot spams that looks like this!

Yes! But before I'm gonna explain them shortly, it's basically almost the same s**t to the last ones that I ever encountered from a while ago, except these particular bot comments do have completely different language (which is Spanish). Again, just like those ones that I encountered earlier, these particular bot comments also provides some wild URL links that leads to yet another s**t "sus" hookup sites too, except these particular bot comments do have completely different formula. Unlike previous ones which commented with just a random timestamp (duration) of a video then followed by their shady URL links themselves, these ones literally promotes "them" in their own Spanish language for some particular reason, yet they put those shady URL links between any of those sentences as well. As of today, these particular bot comments initially appears from nowhere since last month, and I literally have no clue about how come they keep doing their own purpose, but under different story. Of course I DON'T bother to open ANY of them, and I literally reported them straight away as unwanted spams for those reasons that I mentioned above, or even the reasons that I also explained in my aforementioned article post about those bot comments too... 

Well, I think that's pretty much it from what I encountered yet another one of these YouTube's bot comment spams that appears recently, but under different anonymous culprits that I absolutely have no clue about why they keep appearing again and again from nowhere like so. Yet again, pay FULL attention about how to deal with any of those out there since they are newly spams and swarms from nowhere every time you upload your latest YouTube videos... As always, stay safe from any of those culprits with their bot comments and thanks for reading this short post.

Errors and BSODs on your laptop(s)...💻❌

(Not my picture, but it belongs to somebody else who got this BSOD)

Note : Yes, I actually have my own picture of BSOD that occurred on one of my laptops that I ever owned, but unfortunately, I posted it on Google+ few years ago until the Google+ itself got shut down later on without downloading it back... So, I decided to put this screenshot instead, even though the error code on this BSOD itself is the same like what I literally saw exactly like so just before...

Well, it's time to explain about something different on tech topics, which is me explaining about certain errors and blue screen of deaths that occasionally happened in every single of my own Windows laptops that I ever owned from then until today.  There are plenty of certain errors and BSODs that I encountered from the past until today, especially for my first two laptops that I ever owned with their own poor specifications (unless I'd love to upgrade either one of it's own guts anyway).  Anyway, without further ado with it, let me explain about my short stories of certain errors and BSODs that were occurred through all of my Windows laptops that I ever owned from then until today.

A. Errors

There are plenty of errors that I ever spotted on my laptops in general, mostly occurred in some of my older ones with their own poor specifications. Here are bunch of my traits about certain errors themselves that I referred them to:

• First off, sometimes the whole system just bogged down a lot, which causing it performs so poorly (judging by the fact I checked it through Task Manager, the CPU always goes on 100%, freaking all the time!). When that happens, it occasionally makes weird "pup" sounds every time I tried to click anything, or on most cases, the cursor sometimes can't reach the taskbar or it stopped responding for a moment... The only way to fix it is obviously just force shut down the whole system, and it would probably fix it entirely. Or, on the worst cases, it would occasionally trip into BSOD instead until I must force shut it down.
  
• Another error that caused the whole system just bogged down a lot, which involves certain programs that I downloaded them from an internet, especially from the shady sites where I downloaded them from. I tried to open it, the whole system just doing that. Even I tried to delete it, it keeps doing so as well (until I finally able to get rid of it off, slowly)... There was also another behavior of the (almost) similar problem, but it occasionally occurred during I tried to open certain heavy programs, then the whole system suddenly bogged down a lot or completely stuck.
• Some older programs that intended to run on older versions of Windows would simply crash. Remember my old and popular post of me explaining those old 64 GameHouse games that were available on one my old laptops with Windows 7 installed? Most of them just wouldn't work on it or newer versions of Windows for very obvious reasons.
• Certain errors that involves me tried to connecting my laptop into my home Wi-Fi network, ranging on the way how it simply won't connect due to glitched options, IP address conflict (sometimes, especially for my good old days with Windows 7 yet accordingly to what it literally said), and so on.
• Certain severe system bugs or glitches that I couldn't recognize on which programs or system features that causing that to occur.

B. Blue screen of death (BSOD)

From what I remembered, I spotted at least two BSODs on my laptops from then until today. Although one of them may happen sometimes, but the other one was definitely the most frightening one that I ever seen so far. So, here are two moments about how the BSODs on my laptops occurred:

• First off, when I'm doing certain tasks with sounds (such as playing media files, playing games, or even online streaming stuffs), the whole system just suddenly freezes with the way how the sound also freezes as well. Then, after few seconds later, it triggers the BSOD... FYI, the one that I ever caught back from few years ago had an error code on it's own BSOD, which was Kernel Data In-page Error. Probably because I have too much force multitasking that caused it triggers like so? I think so, specifically for my old laptops with their own poor specifications.
• Then, here is my most frightening one that occurred on my very first laptop that I ever experienced so far. For absolutely no reason, it keeps BSOD right after I booted up the whole system. Unlike the first one which the BSOD stayed like it should be, this one just simply showed it ONLY for few seconds, then it restarted... It keeps doing it's own looping sequences like so for many times until I obviously force shut it down yet I brought it to the service center to reset it. I couldn't remember the error code on this particular weird BSOD, sadly.

There you have it for my own short stories of certain errors and blue screen of deaths (BSOD) that I experienced on my Windows laptops in general... As for my current laptop that I have right now, I also experienced some of the errors like what I stated above, but not all of them that I ever caught though. Here are bit of my specific experiences with my current laptop related to this topic that I clearly made in this post:

• The whole system just bogged down a lot every time right after I installed certain updates from Windows Update, sometimes. Even though I'm able to pause it for a week by accessing it's own settings, there is no way to manually stop it entirely apart from pausing it for a week, specifically for my Windows 10 version that is installed on my current laptop (Home SL)... So, in order to fix it, I have to either shut it down then I turn it on few times, or even restart it few times (if it works straight off the bat without any sudden horrible lags like so). Well, at least it doesn't trip into BSOD though.
• A tiny bit of minor problem where I do certain things with sounds (such as playing any media files, games, or even playing any of their online counterparts), sometimes the sound just freezes up for a split second... I ever experienced if my current laptop's whole system just froze the whole system with the way how the sound also froze, but it also didn't trip into BSOD anyway, because I was able to force shut down by simply holding the power button during that occurred.
• Another bad experience about how my current laptop also sometimes froze during I opened certain programs in one desktop (mainly for heavy ones like browsers, video editing software, or even games), the whole system just suddenly went stuck, and I couldn't even move my mouse's cursor at all during this occurred... Either way, it sometimes fixed by itself after few minutes; or on the worst cases, it kept doing so until it would trip to BSOD instead, but I was able to fix it by simply force shut down by holding the power button too.

Well, I think that's pretty much it for what I could say about this topic that literally explains about certain errors and blue screen of deaths on all of my laptops that I ever owned, ranging from my very first one till all the way into my current one that I'm using right now. Pay full attention if you want to optimize your computer(s) or laptop(s) properly, if you don't want any of these problems that I clearly listed here will happen in yours too at one day or sooner... Anyway, that's it from what I summed up about this topic that explains about them both cause I literally lost my words (or sentences) and ideas about whatever else that I will tell you next, and as always, thanks for reading this post.
