Aiden Baker

iFixit was kind enough to write an article about me and my Autism!

Take a look!

I joined in 2015 and made a lot of unhelpful answers in my first years (just ask @mayer!) But I am now a lot better. When I'm an adult I want to do something in the computer science field. I’m thinking maybe IT. Either way, I still want to go to MIT. Lucky that I live in MA! I have always been good at computers and stuff like that (and a lot of other miscellaneous stuff) My Mother even has a picture of me banging a screwdriver on a baby gate! Anyway in 2016 I built a gaming PC with the specs below:

-8 core AMD FX Unlocked

-MSI Gaming Motherboard

-Corsair 750 Watt PSU

-G.Skill Ripjaws X 16 (8x2) DDR3 Memory

-MSI Radeon R7 370 GPU

-MSI Radeon RX 480 Gaming 8GB

-Windows 10 Pro 64bit

I am experienced with Windows 10, Windows 7, Windows XP, Windows Vista, and I presume windows 8.1 and 8 are pretty much the same as Windows 10 in Tablet mode or with full screen start enabled. I like XKCD and especially the What If section.

I have various skills:

-Picking basic locks

-Fixing stuff

-Making things complicated

-Voiding warranties

-disassembling stuff

Random Facts:

-I've almost flipped a golf cart

-kicked a food service freezer compressor and somehow fixed it doing that

-I hate yahoo search

-I have sold 15 pounds of scrap metal

That's about it. one more: I have a very short attention span!

UPDATE: A close friend of mine has died of ALS. I am very unhappy as this happened. His name is Jepo. Please go over to the Gleason foundation and give them some money because they gave jep 10,000 dollars worth of free equipment If you donate, as iFixit says, "Aiden Baker will be eternally Grateful."

Also, if anyone has ever wondered why I call myself @CaptainSnowball meet my bird Snowball!

This is snowball. he is a diamond dove best thing is, he has a lifespan of 24 years

This thing is getting all mixed up. Oh well (insert OCD rant here) anyway I'm probably the only kid in my school who's gotten in trouble with the IT department few examples of this:

-removing dead projector bulb from my teacher's projector (with permission from my teacher)

-"hacking" into a school network using the show password button on a school computer

I like helping out around iFixit. I hope to become a moderator so that I can remove spam and other junk easier. It would also allow me to keep patrolling and moderating under control.

My favorite Video Game Quote:
