I mean there is literally nothing to do. Friends are busy, its pissing down outside and I've got to babysit the bros. If I wasn't being paid I assure you they would no longer be with us.
And so I thought well, I may as well get a movie. And so I of course paid for one, as every 15 year old on the planet does, on the internet, and found the file I received from the PAID website (oh yes I pay for all of my movies) was password locked. Although I had of course PAID it was a website with no customer support, shall we say?
So to the next dilemma, what's the password? It wasn't online, and a few guesses with the title of the movie and the actor names, director names etc didn't return a favour.
And so I HACKED!!! *quiet gleeful giggle*
Well...sort of. I've read loads of books. Too many books. Watched too many movies. And they all use a super-secret, generally colour-coded blue program to guess hundreds of passwords. Millions. They just keep guessing every possible password until they're in.
And so I thought, naive old me, well this can't be hard. I downloaded a program called RAR Password Unlocker. There were three options; "Dictionary Attack" where you go through the dictionary trying actual words, "Mask Attack" where it guesses loads of options but with your input, like if you know how long it is or whatever. Then there's "Brute Force Attack", which naturally is the only cool-sounding option which I immediately took. Of course I probably should have done a dictionary attack but WHO CARES?
Ha, I thought. This will fix the liars, i thought. With my powerful hacking tool I will be MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE.
An hour later, 1 million attempts, and it still read 0.0000% complete.
Another hour, 2.5 million attempts, 0.0000% complete.
This is my screenshot of the current situation.
That's right. 5.5 million attempts, we're still guessing 4 digit codes, and it's elapsed nearly 6 hours. And it's STILL goddamn 0.0000%. I'm waiting for 0.0001% so I'll know exactly when the thing will finally stop.
So yeah, hacking. Unless you've got a supercomputer handy, which my $999 HP isn't, then getting a password could take a while. Like, a lifetime.
So I've gone from boredom to enhanced boredom, hence the title. At the moment I'm looking up and seeing the guesses password being "f@b}"
Seriously. Whose password is f@b}? It's elapsed 5 hours 52 minutes and at 0.000%.
Also by the way if anyone has a decent guess please comment, I'm getting really, really bored of doing bugger all. The rain doesn't want to stop and my brothers don't want to behave. Someone doesn't want their password guessed and I don't want people not wanting stuff because it gets on my nerves.
Now I'm gonna go re-watch Sherlock. Because the BBC solely exists to solve the global boredom crisis, i assure you, it's even in the name. British Boredom Combaters. Shut up spellcheck, combaters is so a word.
Now spellcheck is red-lining "spellcheck". Oh the irony.
