Title: If I die today....
Post by: Blue on 01 June 2010, 11:50:56 am
I'm going to wish I had not bought that many sex toys, do not have 100 condoms in my bedroom and burned all the sex guide books.

Is it just me who sometimes has thoughts about people finding all these things if I do get hit by a bus?

Nah, they'll just think I'm sexually enlightened and promiscuous.  ;)

Oh god. Just let no one guess the password to my computer. I have nightmares about this post-death scenario! Even though I obviously won't be caring if it really happens. Hrm. :o

That's why my mum said I should always wear clean knickers. Just in case  ;D

When you are dead, you are dead, as in not of this world. I honestly would not get up off my deathbed and try to delete files off my laptop! I would rather spend my last moments eating Ben and Jerrys ice-cream safe in the knowledge that when my numbers up, 'tis written in my will that the person who busts my laptop beyond repair gets the cash! I do have a solution which I shall post soon though.

I'm thinking more of my parents' potential agony rather than mine - of course I won't be doing much post-Last Day. :P But that's a good idea to put in your will that you want all data destroyed. And will bequeath money to whoever does it. Ha.

Handy (about to meet your maker) hints!

I dont even think it has to go that far.

I worry about if I get arrested for a long time and my parents have to come to my place and pick all my things up (its a gory thought that I do not wish to think about, and hope that it wont happen!)

Like Cindy said, when you're dead...you're dead. But when you wake up from a coma after being hit by the high speed rail or get out of jail, you have lots of explaining to do  :D  ;)  ;D  :(  :o  ???  :P  :-[  :-X  :-\  :'(

I use the German saying :

Nach mir, die sinflut.

translated: after me, the deluge or the tidalflood

What it means is why should you care what happens after you are dead...

God, yes! I always wonder whether I should give someone a key to destroy all evidence, sadly I'm not really close enough to anyone who knows.

This reminds me of that Queer as Folk episode (US version) where Ted is in a coma and the lads go to his place to take away all the porn/dildo's before his parents arrive.

Actually that could be a handy diversion tactic when asked to provide an excuse as to why one was detained  at her majesty's pleasure..

Oh god. Just let no one guess the password to my computer.

If it uses Windows XP and your password is less than 14 characters long, or uses Windows Vista / 7 and it is less than about 10 (or is in a dictionary, even if you d0 th1ng5 l1k3 th15), then it would probably take a few seconds to crack...

Really?!! How can that be?

You trade disc space for time. You convert lots of possible passwords to how Windows stores them and then compare what you find on the machine with your (very large) database. Windows XP is particularly bad because unless you tell it otherwise, it converts your long password into two short ones, to make it easy to crack.. erm, to make it compatible with some broken Microsoft network system.

Ophcrack is one implementation. If it gets your Windows password, get a new password (or operating system!)

You just need a porn buddy... With added duties I.e removal of a incriminating evidence from your laptop, house (sex toys etc) and there you go!
I recommend everyone to have one ;) of course it works both ways, & if they die first you may well end up with 'lovely' collection of magazines & DVDs that you'd rather not have known about..........! ;D
