A lot of 11 year olds do it with help of their dads. I guess that's where the problem lies here.

It's not. Everything is plug and play and has been for at least fifteen years. You literally cannot plug something into another thing that it is not supposed to be plugged into. The only real risk is static shock which takes about 30 seconds for even a child to wrap their head around.

I built a gaming PC when I was that age and neither I, nor anyone I knew thought it was remotely out of the ordinary.

I "built" a PC when I was 12.
Had a Pentium MMX IBM, bought new mobo, ram, CPU to upgrade it. realized nothing fits inside it, and that I needed a new PSU. picked one up at a Computer Renaissance, placed the mobo on the foam backing it came with, plugged everything in, and made a jumper cable to power it on.
Had a caseless PC for a few months till I manged to save up more money for a shitty case.

I assembled my own PC in the early days of the pentium D era when i was around 10 years old
Started buying parts piece by piece over summer, asked for ram and a case for christmas, built it all early january of 2007.
It was a pretty capable machine too,
>2.8ghz pentium D 820
>geforce 6800
>1gb of ddr2, in the form of 4 256mb sticks
>two 40gb 5400rpm hdd's
>some shitty intel matx board i got at a garage sale
>all inside a silver micronPC case that had a 350w power supply my grandpa gave me

It wasnt fancy by any means, i wasnt a rich kid, hence why most of my stuff was a few years old

it was fucking cool though, spent all day playing runescape and halo CE, the sims 1/2

I dont see this as being a newsworthy thing, but i am very glad that even just a few kids are getting into this kind of stuff early. The more kids who show an interest in computer technology the better. Even if its meme-d out like the bomb clock kid, at least some kids still care about this kind of thing, and dont just see a computer as a box of internet with mystery inside.
>>
I built my first PC with an Athlon in '00 and I was 11 as well. Granted I fried the first mobo because of no stand offs it went well besides that.

Literally no guide or reference to go off either.

What's more surprising is that he was able to "save" 600 bucks.
When I was that age I was happy to get a forint (rougly 1/300 of a $ today, not that much more back then) every now and then and save up for a chocolate bar.
But I guess he's a genius.

The first PC I built was back in the 90's when I was about 8. I had a whole wopping 486! I even remember getting a P133 chip for Christmas one year. Back in the day when you still needed to know DOS to install windows. Even remember buying RedHat Linux discs and set that up in the late 90's. Why the hell is it an accomplishment for a 11 year old to build a computer with the current technology. Give him a 20 year old machine to work on and lets see how he does.

douchebag IRL, pasta
"We were a small college club with around 10 members, one of our members emailed tyson's agent to see if we could book him. We found out it would cost 40k (it raised to 50k in December of that year where I think it still might be) for his speaking fee plus expenses to have him come to our college for 1 day where he'd host a small lecture, a press meeting, dinner with up to 6 people, and the main lecture and a book signing time permitting. We decided to go for it, and spent a year where our club exclusively worked on bringing him in. When he arrived, myself and others introduced ourselves and our fields of study. He went after first of us in humanities or soft sciences pretty much relentlessly from the get go. We're all used to the philosophy major working at McDonald's joke, but he wasn't trying to be funny, and spent the ride from the airport making repeated comments about the uselessness of our majors. Additionally he spent about 5 minutes trying to show that logic was stupid but he was citing logical rules and Occam's razor. The small lecture was him bragging about how famous he was, and how easy it is to pull yourself out of poverty or etc. The dinner was for leaders of other clubs so helped us raise money. He took the piss out of how one student held her fork, and was impossibly smug when giving advice to physics students. The main event was a terribly boring lecture consisting of fart jokes and fan service; teasing the upcoming TV series he was in and not much else. He spent a quarter of the time reading Sagan's blue dot, which is nice but shouldn't have cost us because it wasn't his material. He left at about 2am, and we were all exhausted because we had spent the day busy setting up and tearing down. The whole affair cost nearly 85k. The additional money being for locations, personnel, air fare, Tyson's hotel, catering, etc. We all decided he was an ass hole. I'd never want to spend 16 hours with a celebrity again."

Jesus. I built a computer when I was 11 because I needed one for school and couldn't afford one otherwise. That was in 2006, and it was as simple as doing a bit of research on a library computer and then plugging it all in. It was a real piece of shit, but it was the best I could do with my resources, and it ran well until I was able to afford an old [spoiler]Thinkpad[/spoiler] a few years later.

A nigger 1) with $740 to throw around, 2) with a family in IT, 3) who has spent his entire life around computers, plugging a bunch of parts in in the year 2016, is so phenomenally unimpressive that I'm actually disgusted this is a real article.

I'm pretty much over the whole 'white privilege' thing but this really activates my almonds. I hate kids with supportive familes getting credit for 'accomplishments' that are 100% due to the societal/familial/governmental support they get. What's actually impressive is accomplishing things when you are completely on your own –and even then, you'll seldom do anything actually noteworthy.
