Welcome to TenForums

Welcome zvidan.

Hi everyone

So you had an introduce yourself thread, i missed that one, even it was in plain text at the top.

I am new in here, but have been a member on sevenforums since early 2016... I'm born and raised in Sweden in Östergötland... I bought my first PC with my summer-work-money back in High school 1987(as my parents though computers was i hype, so they didn't want to give me one) it was a used Commodore PC10-II 5.25 floppy and 10MB harddrive... I discovered i was pretty good with computers and in the early 90's i did hack a few targets... bad me.. bad me... I did became good after a knock on the door in the spring of 1995.
So i started to work with IT for the company i had hacked, with custom OS-installs and custom building computers and network setups for small up to mid size businesses for a couple of years.. then a friend and I started service/support/data-recovery small business and it was good for a couple of years.. and then the IT crash came in the 00's so we crashed and burn in the mid 00's, as many others did then...
So did go back to school to get paper on my knowledge and after that i started working at consulting level with a team.
Now I have been on sick leave for seven years do to hypothyroidism, a thyroid gland disease that causes you a very low physical energy and that really-really sucks when you are a creative and active person.. and I have started to realize i will probably not be able to go back to that again...
Nowadays i mostly do some volunteer work, a bit now and then for those people near by me who can't afford professional computer help..
So i try to keep my mind busy by having started to learn docker and cloud.

My hobbies is, Sewing, flowers, gardening/landscaping and fixing with cars... I did grew up in a rally family and my mother and father did bring me to the garage as soon as i was old enough to crawl.
oh.. and i also have Retro computers as a rainy day hobby.. I still have my first computer i mention above.

Have a nice weekend everyone.

Welcome to Ten Forums Marie

Sounds like you've led an 'interesting' life. Glad to hear you swapped your black hat for a white one.

Thanks
Yeah i did.. IT security is still fun though, but i hate modern computers and all OS-installs. so that is a bit ironic. *HAHAHA*

Oh, I enjoy playing with the latest OS's, like getting W11 to run on old hardware, however inappropriate

I have already hacked win11 install a few days after the release and I did a swedish howto for those who wanted it.
so local accont on home, no tpm, 1gen i5 mbr and nothing of all you had to have.
Then in that post i did wrote something like.. (Microsoft says you can not use 11 on old hardware... in your face Microsoft, och fu*k you too)

Edit.. I am soooo humble and nice in my words i post online sometimes. *lol*
(as this is a windows forum.. The fu*k you is a Linus Torvalds thing, when he saying fu*k you Nvidia)
