Fourty days later, Anon finds that his entire computer file system has been replaced with pics of Morgan Freeman

Why aren't there viruses like this? Everyone wants to hurt your computer. Do something dumb like that.

Or a screamer virus. That could bring the world to its knees.

My idea was a worm that just torrents random shit and dumps it on your desktop like a cat bringing you a dead bat with "I broughted you a pwesent ^w^" energy.

Would be far more destructive on first world countries than third world countries

There used to be a shitton of silly viruses back in the day.

The "you are an idiot" one with the pop-up that runs away from your mouse cursor was hilarious.

I wrote a "virus" in college, which basically:

  1. took a screenshot of the entire desktop
  2. displayed screenshot full-screen on top of other windows
  3. would only go away if you typed "@sugar_in_your_tea pwned me" or something

Oh, and it started on startup, so rebooting wouldn't fix it. :)

bro I was thinking of this EXACT idea around the time you sent this message, how many more evidence do I need to conclude that this world is a simulation ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€

I did one similar! Used autohotkey to hide the task bar at random intervals and pop up a warning that said "system out of memory". Only way to get it back was autohotkey or a reboot. It would restart daily and on login so it would keep happening. And I hid it as "Nvidia game scanner service.exe" in the Nvidia bloatware folder so it looked innocent. Had a good laugh about that one

I think that's because most viruses aren't made for fun but for a specific reason (i.e to steal money from someone's computer).

Thanks for an idea

May i point you to a thing i've once made:

How about one that jumpscares you. Or replaces windows with Linux

[-] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago

That'd be hilarious lmao. Just a "windows is updating" progress bar while in the background it installs Mint, complete with transferring users/passwords, then "rebooting..." BAM Mint.

Idk how possible that'd be but a man can dream.

previous license key invalidated, now you'll see what's the REAL ransomware ;)

[-] rain_worl@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

are you referring to a gnu system?

[-] RmDebArc_5@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

No no, Iโ€™m talking alpine Linux

[-] rain_worl@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)
