Disable Bitlocker:




Or get your Bitlocker security keys written down. They usually are inside the Microsoft account.

I couldn't access my Microsoft account with another device tho because the SIM card attached was expired and they requested an additional security check.

Website done; here is a first post:


And a pinterest page, already published 3 photos using canva template...


Claimed website on Pinterest.


That's it for now.

Probably i will redesign the website later on but it's good for now.

You gotta be kidding me. Normally hackers would do that and demand ransom, now it's built into Windows by Microsoft itself? These Linux 'Windows is a malware' jokes suddenly get a new angle.

It's an adventure getting outta bed to get to the toilet
but I feel that @Zwielicht would get mad if i posted that

Again, I’m no priest, but I couldn’t help saying this - Office Outlaw forum should stand for something far greater than hatred, which, in some way (if not entirely), seems to be reflected in this thread. Please excuse me for saying this!

I kindly request @Zwielicht to lock this thread.

What were the last two adventures you went on like trekking, traveling, camping, or anything exciting? I’d love to hear your stories!

Let’s start with mine.

My last 2 were:

1. Dzukou Valley Trek, Nagaland, India (17km) in February, 2025:

It was one hell of a effed-up trek. The first part was so steep and hard that while climbing, I thought, why did I even do this in the first place? But somehow, I managed to climb, and after that, it was a long trek but very, very pleasant.

The whole valley has no electricity or any population. There was only one campsite. My buddy and I rented a tent. The temperature outside was -20 to -40 degrees Celsius at night, and the tent was covered with frost. We had a fun night with a bonfire and our Old Monk rum.

In the morning, we went to see the frozen stream and the valley. It was like a dream with frozen water and the frosted plants all around felt magical. The return trip was even harder, and my legs were shaking like crazy while climbing down. There were no stairs, just plain mountain slopes with rocks.

It was one hell of a trek to remember.

Few images clicked using my mobile camera:






2. Double Decker Living Root Bridge Trek, near Cherrapunji, Meghalaya, India (3500 steps + some walking) in April 2025:

This trek had a mix of stairs and plains, but we had to climb uneven stairs, around 3,500 steps and more walking.

Again, my legs were shaking, but in the end, I saw many amazing things like the single-decker living root bridge, a fish pond, and the double-decker living root bridge.

It was another trek to remember. I tried uploading images, but they are still too large, even after I compressed them. I wish I could upload some images.

I would love to hear about your last 2 adventures.

I have just one big ab in the middle. Does that count?

I first posted this issue a week ago in the Sapphire Saloon section so the vast majority of you didn't see it.

There is a Windows 11 bug that sends you an update notification and that update fails, your entire drive gets encrypted.

A week ago, I lost my data, I couldn't get past it anymore because I didn't even know that Windows had activated Bitlocker and set a password for me without even asking or notifying me... so my entire drive got encrypted and even Reset PC didn't work... I had to do a fresh install of Windows from an ISO USB.

Just saw an article about this issue, published yesterday so I guess this issue STILL haven't been fixed... wanted to give you a heads-up if you get an update notification.. Either get your Bitlocker keys or disable Bitlocker completely.

Article:

I was doing a pinterest before 2018-2020; it was easy at that time, and for new accounts, they were giving them a boost at the start. there wasn't a sandbox like now...

I will start in Niche that is not paying well but can skyrocket easily and reach 10 million views in a short time.

What is the niche?

Memes

Before they banned all my accounts, why, who knows... They were banning everyone like crazy... They wanted unique images... Now they are flooded with AI images but i dont think they are performing very well...


Plan is to buy a domain and build a website first.

After that, i will make a Pinterest account and turn it into a business and connect a domain.


I will share a domain and everything once it goes live.


I will use other people's memes and will craft them in Canva with some templates.

What i read and checked for Pinterest nowadays is that you need a consistency of a month or 2 for Pinterest to start giving you more exposure and growth.

All i am interested in is outbound clicks to my site, as thats only i and everyone else needed: more traffic to your own site more earnings.

Website will be monetized with Adsense and Monumetric probably.

For Pinterest TItles and descriptions, i will use chatgpt as its easy and pretty good for Pinterest and it will craft me 4 Pinterest descriptions with hashtags and its ready to copy/paste it there without any edits needed.


For content on website i am not sure yet what to do, as it shouldn't be pure AI because i want traffic from google also.


Wish me Luck and help my laziness

Since the votes are currently in favour of making this our new homepage, I have spent some time getting it more ready and fixing any issues there could be.

If anyone wants to the view the page to see what it looks like and test it out, you can find it here: https://officeoutlaw.com/pages/home/



You may notice that the main changes made to this is the Latest from the Trading Post section being a little smaller and simpler. This is because the equal split between the two was less visually appealing and we feel that there should be more of an emphasis on the posts from the forum. I'm hoping that this improves the appearance of the page but still is clear enough for members wanting to see Trading Post updates.

Please let me know if there are any bugs or issues that have been missed.

It’s a shit forum nowadays regardless of that.

Not an IM forum anymore; It’s a lifestyle forum that’s the equivalent of mom Facebook groups.

People posting useless, completely unrelated news, ’what type of bread are you?’ type threads, and so fucking much of incredibly cheesy motivation bullshit.

Even the (J)Exec titles are nowadays full of people who have never made even $10k in years, lmao.

I was on the lash yesterday in the sunshine, but I'd need a gallon or two to watch Greg Davies, personally.

Liked him a lot in The Inbetweeners, but nothing at all since then I have seen I have found funny.

fine

happy now?

So this is an updated version of a guide I wrote a long time ago.
We'll basically see a way to get daily/weekly/monthly shout outs from big niche relevant influencers in most niches.

It's stupidly simple, so simple that I'm really not sure why it wasn't abused yet. I do it myself for every single project I have, and for some of my clients.

It's great for branding purposes (getting your name out there in front of your target audience) as well as for user (or client) acquisition and building connections.

I'm basically using Patreon to look up social media influencers in my niche (or that are targeting the same audience as I am) with a shoutout option in a cost effective price/engagement ratio.

I then buy the membership that grants me a shoutout, *and* I'm also supperchatting their streams every once in a while.

The superchats are important, don't skip those. They're important because the influencers are going to remember your name from being their Patreon, so they're more likely to engage with your superchat message for longer than others, keeping your message and business name on the screen for a long time as well and say a nice work about you.

And here's the kicker:

I opened a Patreon and named myself by the name of my site (for example, if OO were to do this, they should call the Patreon account OfficeOutlaw.com) so every time the influencers shout their supporters, you get people coming to your site, you get your brand name searches up, and being mentioned by a respected person in the niche.

Another cool thing is that as soon as you start supporting someone on Patreon, you can send them a message, and they are very likely to respond. So, you can easily pitch your collaboration or sponsorship offer without it being ignored or lost in a sea of other offers they get via email.

According to Patreon's support team, you are allowed to have as many Patreon accounts as you wish, and you know how easy it is to open another YouTube or Twitch accounts. This means that you can technically do it with every one of your projects and don't really need to prioritize.
