Computer Bondage

[bound_jenny]

Hi all!

I would not trust my life to a PC, either. And I work with these things every day
I.E. in the aviation industry you use real-time processing systems for the essentials things like flight control, often with 5 (or more) processors calculating the same things, just to be on the safe side.
Regarding reliability, this is miles away from the standard windows PC.
Sure, it may work out 99,99% of the time...but what if you happen to catch the wrong one? You should at least have a backup plan...

Cheers

I knew I wasn't insane!

Computers are very fallible. I have had hard drives go belly up (mostly at work), last winter my home PC motherboard died after six years of faithful service, CD drives have given up the ghost, etc. The last virus I had was a very long time ago, back in the good old DOS days - it was the original Stoned virus! So none of the failures I have experienced are due to viruses (I am extremely strict on what goes into my PCs).

I have an inviolable rule: the confidence I put into a release device is inversely proportional to its complexity. The most complicated release I have is a film can stuck to the hour shaft of a battery-operated clock.

The other inviolable rule is the fail-safe backup. No mechanisms, electronics, or other doodads. The fail safe is easily accessible but at a cost of a great effort - i.e. physical effort, meaning I have to wriggle and struggle into another room, negotiating some tight corners, before I can access my backup.

Ok I hope this doesn't go on till were blue in the face.

I'm not saying they can't fail everything can fail what if there was a fire and you could not wiggle to your backup release or any number of things?

Not suppose to rely on one thing alone most of us use two completely separate methods same reason parachutes have an emergency chute simple to say ok it could fail use a backup or two even.

And this still doesn't even attempt to answer this person’s question I vote for the threads name to be changed “why computers shouldn’t be used as a release” it would be more suitable I’m really not being smart this has gotten so off topic it reminds me of yahoo answers.

I could post a million reasons not to do self bondage in general and the complexities of it or why these methods aren’t good and could fail but again this is not the question.

Perhaps we got a lot of OT here really...after all, selfbondage is always a risk (as someone else pointed out). We all have to take risks in life, there is nothing wrong with it.
The one thing I think is of importance is to *know* the risk you take.
If you put yourself into strict selfbondage, most of us know during the restrained time a lot of bad things could happen, Burglars, fires, vulcanos
However, we look at the risk, we look at the benefit, and then decide if we want to take the risk.

A problem with computers which I see every day is that people trust them implicitly because they think computers can't fail. Well, in a sort they can't, because they do what the hardware designers, OS developers, driver developers, software developers told them to do.
The problem is... in our human scale, it doesn't make sense all of the time.
If a computer program goes into a deadlock, it is just doing what the programmer told it to do. It just doesn't make sense for the person sitting in front of it

A computer is like suspension bondage. It's only as strong as its weakest link.

There is a simple failsafe that can be used. Your key is suspended by electromagnet, and the computer controls this electromagnet by relay. The power source to the magnet is through a timer, set to turn off the power in, say, twice the time you want to spend in bondage. You will be released for sure when the timer goes off, even if the electricity goes out or your computer poops out.

hi guys

I'm study electrical engineer, and I'm already play some games in SB with my computer, in truth I use one method I think is very safe.
The method is put one string between the conector and wall socket, and I can push the computer from energy at any time I want.
And without energy, the computer can't do nothing to me
The release method I use always the ice, the computer can control another method too but always need a backup with ice, remember thats important
And without computer SB is a little bored... so i don't see much fun stay static in dark a lot of time... I need some teasing
Anyway I always like watch some sado porn when Im in bound, and with computer turned off I'm be in the dark room only waiting the key fall

Hi, i use also the cd-tray release method once and a while. But I always have an extra release method in reach, most of the time just a bottle with dirty fluids which you really don’t want in your carpet or bed.

I use a count down timer software which opens the cd-tray. This is my maximum time.
I use a piece of software what tells what time it is in adjustable intervals. (I use this software to check if the laptop is still working/running) when I’m blindfolded.

For a random release method I sometimes used a script installed on the company website I work for what opens a webpage on the webserver installed on my laptop. This page on my laptop activates a piece of software what opens also the cd-tray. So this way it depends if someone will actually open the specific page on the company website.

This last method I also used with a online bondage partner/Domme… She told me how I should tie/cuff myself and could release me by browsing to my public ip-address so the cd-tray would open. After that She could/can give me other instructions etc.

Like I said, I don’t trust the pc/laptop completely, so I always have a second release method and always have the max timer running for when the internet connection would fail with the online partner.
