    It freaks me out every time I see it on my rig with the damn bloated ass drivers now.

    I’m supposed to be clean. But it feels like computer herpes.

    In reality 2/3 or more of the world population has it, but nobody wants to admit or believe they do despite science saying differently lol.

          I don’t sadly, my work software only supports Win/OSX. I recently had a BIOS update failure (thanks ASUS) and had to use a live Linux distro to recover my system data though!

        Have you had more than 1 partner? Has your 1 partner had more than 1 partner? Congrats. You got the herp.

        Did you grow up in a household where your parents kissed you? Congrats, you got the herp.

        Do you hate cost efficient frugal computer parts and have only ever had 1 sex partner that also was a virgin from households where they didn’t kiss their children? Congrats, you might not actually have the herp.

        An estimated 3.7 billion people under age 50 (67%) globally have herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection, the main cause of oral herpes. An estimated 491 million people aged 15–49 (13%) worldwide have herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) infection, the main cause of genital herpes. Most HSV infections are asymptomatic or unrecognized, but symptoms of herpes include painful blisters or ulcers that can recur over time. Infection with HSV-2 increases the risk of acquiring and transmitting HIV infection.
