Make sure to name the file inconspicuously but temptingly, relating to the old days, like Bill Gates confession.mp3 or DJ Mike Llama - Llama Whippin’ Intro
while i doubt it will actually work, if it does, it would be quite hilarious in my opinion. there’s probably, hopefully, safeguards that prevent such a thing from working and i likely have the syntax wrong, i haven’t used windows in years.
this…is a great idea!
Especially since I have friends who will go to some effort to find out what’s on the disk out of curiosity.
Lol whoops, I meant to give a wrong answer, my bad

They make really good coasters, will recommend.
Rick rollercoastered.

It made me wanna listen to the rest of his music once I actually fully heard Never Gonna Give You Up
Make sure to use this version of the song

I don’t think the OS was sophisticated enough to tell the difference… A drive letter is a drive letter…
I fuckin LOVE this!!! It’s absurd in the extreme and yet, so fuckin cool!
I humbly bow to your greatness of creativity.
Thanks! I was intending for it to be more of a shitpost, but I guess I’m not very good at those, it turns out
Nah it’s awesome. Like you can then tell them “Hah you’ve been rickrolled” haha.
