Rule 11: Don't throw away a working electronic, I guarantee someone else can use it.
I usually collect "old" electronics from my classmates and give 'em a second life. So much useful free stuff
Sell them.
That's what I do
my friend's grandma thew away a really nice laptop because it had a virus
I actually got an old TV that someone put near the dumpster. It was raining that day but the TV still worked.
You are right.
The people on the forum 5 years ago who fixed it, but only wrote "never mind I fixed it" without saying how *_ARE ABSOLUTELY THE WORST_*
agree
mjc0961 I haven't seen truer words yet. Thank you.
Lmao
I suspect that might be because they don't actually know how they did it themselves. Like button-mashers in a fighting game, they get lucky. Personally, when trying to fix something I document every step (still have my notes on how to disable the ransomware that got me a couple years ago), but most people don't operate that way -- They just muck around in half a dozen different areas, notice that _something_ worked, shrug and never even question it...

The thing with Night Light is, that for FPS games you might want to disable it, because you may see enemies worse.

F.lux has some known overlay bugs, which the devs constantly try to fix, but there still are way too many.
For example Portal 2, completely ignores F.lux.
1. Always use off-site backup
2. Beware public WiFi
3. Use unique passwords
4. Always keep up to date
5. Have an antivirus
6. Night light/night shift (filtering blue light at night to get better sleep)
7. Be skeptical ALWAYS
8. Your computer is slow because it's filled with junk
9. GOOGLE IT (error messages)
10. NO ONE CARES (about ur problems or blog posts)

Whelp, because of this comment, I decided to turn off windows defender
My desktop is so messy
Thank you.
Rule 12, windows 8.1/7 are the best
rule no 11. If You're Not Paying For It, You Become The Product
That's not always the case.
That's a pretty stupid rule.
Not really a rule, and I knew that anyway.

#9 Yes I worked for one of the big computer companies (not supposed to say which) as tech support for a little over 2.5 years, and was a top performer and able to fix most problems. We used Google to fix things we couldn't figure out all the time. Glad to hear that everyone does it. Oh and performance issues 95% of the time are programs bogging the system down. The other 5% is due to the hard drive failing (or memory but that causes performance issues more rarely - other hardware is really rare for this).
google is like our #1 friend and #1 enemey at the same time ngl.

If you're told to clean your computer NEVER use soap and water no matter what Wiki says.
You can use water as long as it’s deionised.
u can use water with soap and your computer fine
how: cause the pc is waterproof
funny haha
If you unplug the computer and let it dry VERY thoroughly before returning power it's not that dangerous. Source: have cleaned arduinos and raspberry pi boards with water easily 40 times with no issue. Don't do this with something like a desktop PC though.

if you have watched enderman's motherboard washing series, you would have known, that you are wrong.
Rule #11: Alt + F4 makes your computer run faster
StRiKe yeah use it all the time, it solvs almost every problem.
StRiKe wel if a program is eating too much resources then it actually works so your jebait is not a jebait anymore
AusDaes shh you’re not supposed to think of it that way. Stick to the joke XD
In first person shooters, it makes you gun shots twice as powerful for 20 seconds. Hidden cheat code :P
WebMinion yep. Don’t let too many know the secret though
I hate how people think their computer gets slower over time - old hardware doesn't get slower, new software (and junkware the user doesn't need) requires more power.
actually very untrue, if you have a spinning drive the degradation of it happens over time and it gets slower and slower,even components can weaken over time, yes alot of it is software but not always how it is
Oh I didn't know that.. I figured hard dives get slower over time but I didn't think it would be that noticable.
spinning drives get slower and slower over time, SSD's have a number of reads and writes and then it becomes unreliable
true, but it's annoying when software that requires more power is forced down your throat and you can't downgrade back.. *cough* iOS *cough*.
Goofygiggles no everyone knows the transistors wear or over time.
All people: if your house broke or went into fire call emergency
Him: if your house broke or went into fire maybe your backup be broken
When editing a file: save early save often. If you don't save it it might crash, the power might go out, or you might just forget and shut it down without saving.
Ctrl+s is my most used key combination.
I worked in Tech Support. One day a user called me. "I was working on a file, but it is lost." "What is the file name?" "I don't remember." "Where is the file located?" "I'm not sure." "How do you know the file is lost?"😁 PS. I logged into her system, and located the file in their files list.
Number 11: Always enable Two-Step Factor Authentication when asked. Like Google or Apple or whatever
That goes hand in hand with unique passwords, I would also make sure you use a third party authenticator and not use SMS 2FA as well.
Number 12: Try not to forget your passwords, if it is a email password then you fcked up
That is how I trolled a hacker.

@Commenter 309 the one comment that understands my meme here
thio: use very unique diffrent passwords
school: we don’t do that here
We use your birth date, and nowadays, you can literally google your name and get your birth date.
So I went into Recovery Mode on Windows 10. With it, you can troubleshoot the device and configure other options. Before Windows 10 Enterprise updated last year, you were able to get into the command prompt through this mode as an administrator. I was able to elevate my account to administrative privileges.
14: Always download more RAM when possible.
TheKrcko I wish that was possible
Alwaye*

My platinium rule just dont use the internet
@@kepalaketukrandom7311 I suggest "don't use electronic devices at all". I like this quote that the only computer that is safe (in terms of cyber security) is one that wasn't touched by a human.
You're the best, Thio Joe. You are well-spoken, easy to understand and you know what you're talking about. There's other RUclips channels who may help a little, but the characters who do the videos are goofy, not likeable and sometimes they are way too biased (non-objective). Thanks for being so helpful.
Really good tips. You're so right about the error messages. I've fixed tons of problems by Googling about the error. As an older user, I can totally agree about "No One Cares"! So many of my friends throw up their hands and complain about whatever their problem is...they refuse to try to fix it themselves...Love your videos!!! ;)
Be cautious about clicking on anything in an e-mail.
Dont even open emails from strangers or those cursed panic alerts!
It's not even simply about opening emails from strangers but that is part of it. I always give this advice: Don't open any attachments from ANYONE whom you're not expecting to receive attachments from. For example, if you receive a jpg from your best friend and it says "omg is this you naked" and you know for a fact that you stopped using "OMG" years ago, then DONT open the jpg. If for example, your friend text you and said "hey I have photo evidence of you from the weekend, I'll email it to you" and then you receive an email from your friend after that, then and only then I will say that you can open the jpg.
Unfortunately you are incorrect. If you use google you can find info about it. To put it simply, the same advice is always given: Don't open ANY attachments from ANYONE whom you're not expecting to receive emails or attachments from.

To expand on reality into the realm of paranoia can one even trust the source is not infected to pass along junk? This is the world we live in with the digital age. Could this be why golf is popular?
@@larrybe2900 I'm not sure on the angle your you're coming from or how you envision golf as a by-product of digital warfare. However the recommendation is still a valid point to consider.
I love the "no one cares" thing. That`s usually so very true in almost all aspects of life. (refer to G. carlin)Thankfully, someone, sometimes will care.
Ron Medalie George Carlin is my religion XDDDD
Hey ThioJoe, Really nice list.
On the "Google it" to fix your errors suggestion. I'd add be careful of the source of the suggestion, especially if you are working on your employers computer infrastructure. What works for a school kid on his Gaming computer, might not be a great idea on a mission critical server. Security & Data Integrity are often compromised by blindly following internet suggestions.

I hate chocolate people. They always trying to sell me chocolate. I like lemonade people myself.
I will tell you just as soon as I finish the vid, thanks.
No... I have same password everywhere and I almost never backup anything. Also I have sleep rythm from hell so f.lux is useless.
I don't need backup since I don't have any files I care for.
Only rule I really follow is being sceptical.
Timestamps-0:36-always use offsite backups.
1:20- beware off public WiFi hotspots.
2:14- use unique passwords
3:15 always up to date
4:20 have an antivirus

5:55 be skeptical always
By being careful about what you install you can, indeed, keep your computer running as quick as it did at first for a quite some time. I had a Windows 7 installation for years, and I never experienced noticeable slowdown.
My rule of thumb is DON'T SAY FIRST! Most of the time people are wrong and pick fights and in reality NO ONE CARES!
FIRST!
@@__________8146 well, technically you are first, to reply to this comment
@@tdplay4135 I get so annoyed at the comments that say that. NO ONE CARES if your first! If I see another one of those stupid comments again I swear I will break my pc.
I totally agree with you on the Golden Rule, Some people WILL treat me unfairly for the wrong reason, and honestly, I do NOT care about them mainly because I prefer if People is positive to me. and not the people who will just bash for whatever reason possible. They don't realize that the Block Button exist. which can be used and than you can move on.

Man you nailed that one ... Ive been watching a bunch of your vids. Good stuff. Just found you recently. I'm old school tech and yet still finding stuff in your vids that I missed here and there. Excellent work. Especially love the "no one cares" .... lmao .... but would add ... thats not just on the internet ... thats real life as well. ... went through a hard time in the past few years ... back now and rebuilding ( computer wise which is how I came across your videos ) ... but Ive been blocked, hung up on, shunned, etc ... in real life as well as online ...
I cracked up when you said "no one cares" .... keep up the good work mate ... cheers
I have a unique email for every website I log into.
Even better 👍
That seems a bit extreme, what if you forgot your email and your password?
James M A lot of email services limit you to fewer than a dozen email aliases.
James M It’s not feasible to have hundred of aliases though, and again. How are you going to remember the exact email and password combination on a website?
@Madushan Jayawardane brilliant
Awesome video Joe, I know most of these tips that you mentioned.
"It because it's filled with crap!" Lmfao😂😂😂

i thought you were gonna say "a rule that you haven't followed is smashing that like button"

#10, it depends. There are absolutely times you should care if it means the betterment of yourself. Sometimes a complaint can be right. I think in reality you should care enough to consider it at least.
If a popup says you have an error, you dont
If it has a number to call then you can mess with them
You're golden rule makes me smile ear to ear! Sooooo many more people need to hear and take this advice.

You Now The Rules, It's Time To Die
thio, one more rule that i think should’ve been included is that you should never save your passwords onto the browsers itself because it’s super easy to hack and get all of your saved passwords, usernames, emails all in one text document in under a second.
Browser-generated passwords are great for websites you don't care about all that much.

Joe... Your evangel on "The Golden Rule" is 100% dead-on. (so were your other nine points to say the least)... but I hope you'll allow me one quick share. I rarely comment on anything on-line, BUT I think you are just about tops in your field as far as sharing helpful advice and strategies for all of us in the world of tech. I find you thoughtful, engaging, easy to understand, and personable. I can honestly say you'd be a friend I would happily pay to have - ha ha. I wish you much success and look forward to many future helpful postings. Keep it all up, my friend.
Nice informative video! Thank you ThioJoe!
Good Stuff Joe..Thanks
#4 Many people avoid restarting Windows in order to avoid upgrades. Then, when Windows proposes an upgrade, the option is chose to delay patching as much as possible. It's actually a circle of error, since patches are actually mostly tested on accurately patched systems (with all previous patches applied). So, if you break this cycle, get ready for errors while applying patches. Keep in mind, Windows (10, 7, ..) is a client OS, not a server.
7 is always be skeptical
Very useful tips bro! Much appreciated
1. Don't have anything I need to backup
2. wpa3 isn't as secure as you may think it is
3. yeah kinda, but if sites aren't hashing passwords, you shouldn't be using them.

For number 4. It is NORMALLY a good idea to install all updates. BUT there are some circumstances where updates don’t work.
One of them is when your computer can’t handle updates.
Another one is that certain apps don’t work right away.
Another one is if your jail broken on iOS, jailbreaks normally prefer older versions.
Another one is if you don’t like the new verison.
And if you don't like the new version?
Excellent points ThioJoe a keeper video for sure ;)
I changed my every social media account passwords! I feel much safer since i did!
OnlineGamer330 better to use a password manager like last pass
this will allow you to create unpredictable passwords ;)
alarbalarb thanks for the suggestion bud, but i dont have money to pay these stupid websites just to create passwords!
it's actually free and can work on multiple devices from your browser to your mobile there is a pro version however but the free version is good enough i use it and i never needed to upgrade
Me too! Ever since I changed them from password1 to password2, nobody will ever guess it.
OnlineGamer330 It's free. It's also great. I've been using it for 3 years now and haven't had a problem since. The only advantage of the paid version is more 2FA options as far as I care. Even then, you can refer someone and have a free month of the Premium version.
Sound advice! This is common sense. Google is your best friend I know I'm a premium tech support agent

4:00 WINDOWS HAS AN ANTIVIRUS windows defender!
Graeme Field. It won’t protect you in most of the situations that a free antivirus does assuming that the antivirus is a virus.
That one doesn’t work well, use MacAffe
I use a password manager, KeePass, for all that password stuff.
KeePass is offline, but you can sync the already encrypted database wherever you want and even if it does get stolen there's no way to unencrypt it without the master key. It can also run off a USB stick or phone.
Poldovico depending on a lot of factors they could find the password just lying around on the server if some idiot wrote it down in a text file, or even in the ram if said idiot deleted it or if it’s still in the memory from a recent decryption. Furthermore if they download the encrypted data it’s possible it can be brute forces over a few years, and then they can get anyone who doesn’t change their passwords. It’s not foolproof :P
@@kepler6873 Keepass is totally offline
the key is somewhere on your computer and you also can define a password for the database
if you want to sync you can either set it to upload it via sftp to your server (and the other clients can download it) or you can install a plugin for dropbox or google drive
the encryption will need some thousand years (more if you are using an password too) to be bruteforced
also: anything is better than nothing
either you have a pretty good password manager where you can store every password for every website (with password reset reminders) and generate random passwords for every site with a length of 128 (except for paypal, they have a 20 max) without remembering them
or you need to use a simple password for everything and has a more chance of beeing hacked :3
but if you need to secure everything you also have more than just a password manager ^^
@@JustPlayerDE Agreed 100%, something is better than nothing, but everything is vulnerable. Just depends on how obscure and tricky the exploit is
@@kepler6873 then dont use a computer.
i just want to say that any (offline) password manager is more secure than writing your own password and or resuse it
I don't have a tech degree, and I work in technology troubleshooting user apps. I like your videos they help me at work and also at home with my computer. Thanx

#10: Know WHEN to care...yeah...but most people don't. It's easier if they just don't...care that is.
"Let us know down in the comments", "I don´t care" :))))))))))))

You want to keep your computer neat and clean ? Tired of crapware, spyware, adware, startuo full of stuff you don't use ... It's simple. Ditch windows and install Linux.
avgnfan122 the only software that's scarce on Linux is video games, Linux actually has a lot of software available for it, the problem is most of it doesn't compete with the software available on windows, and no I don't use Linux, I use windows 7.
that's why all this Linux users don't do anything else other than writing viruses for Windows users... we won't opt-out.... keep your linux with you....
