I've read somewhere that there's a increasing trend of bitter, lonely old men in France who try to rob banks (yes!) because they're so bored and antisocial from lack of human connections. This would be a hacker version of that.
It might be hard to build ransom botnets when you can barely read the soup menu and have trouble remembering what year it is.

Maybe he should write a novel instead of the botnets.
You're in luck! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daemon_(novel_series)
I enjoyed them.
I've always just read the site and never posted. But what is wrong with you? You are clearly a disturbed individual with some serious moral failings. By the time you retire hopefully you've grown up enough to not give into your childish impulses.
If you were being sarcastic then I'm sorry and I'll feel like a total idiot.
Thanks to this post, they will be knocking soon. Well done.
And if I slip up and get tracked, and I hear the law breaking down the door to get in, I’ll just swallow a pack of pills and be done with it, by the time they get to me, they’ll just find a deflating old corpse sunken into a bed, while thousands of compromised machines stand by to execute their final orders once the dead man’s switch goes off.
This is how I fade.
