1.  You assume I have a computer. 

2. You assume my unpluggin it is connected to it being off.

3.  You assume that I can recognize the states of the computer

4.  You assume I haven't unplugged it.

5. You assume ect.

Whether or nor I assume the above list has no bearing on it being an unfounded assumption.  Even if I claimed that I did not assume those things (but really did), my hypocrisy has no bearing on my argument.

1. I know that you have a computer.

2. I know that your computer is plugged in.

3. I know that your computer is functioning to the point where you can visit this forum.

4. I know that you have not unplugged your computer (or if you have you've been met with unfavorable results).

How do I know these things?  Because I know things about reality, and since we are in the same realtity I can know things about your reality as well.  I don't have to travel to your house and look to see if your computer is plugged into the wall or running off of electricity, because I know that it is.

Your argument doesnt matter because:

- If I exist, I have to plug my computer in to get on the internet.

- If I dont exist, I have to plug my compuer in to get on the internet.
