Sorry brah, but that's going to be literally impossible, unless you're Bill Gates. (or his money)

Phishing I think it is.

Stanvard reacted to FanBlade in Help Remembering Name of Attack
Whaling is a more specific type of phishing
Quote from wikipedia
"Several recent phishing attacks have been directed specifically at senior executives and other high profile targets within businesses, and the term whaling has been coined for these kinds of attacks"

any SATA drive will work, so find a nice, cheap 500gb model or somethings and go with that

you can go up to 4gb of dual channel RAM
as for CPU, the P4 is the max

Stanvard got a reaction from Enderman in Louis Rossmann going up against Apple starting tomorrow
Just about to post a thread about this. Thanks @Enderman! Louis is a stand up guy with a lot of good shit to say. He's about to get... (insert something here)-ed by Apple and the other big boys (Linus, Eli, Logan, etc.) should help him out.

Click on your name in the top right corner, go to account settings, then: signature.

Stanvard got a reaction from Steven9595 in Anyway to limit internet speeds on a home network?
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure your internet can't be ''too fast,'' especially if it's around 85mb/s.

Even though many of us PC gamers may not know him personally, he has been a tremendous positive force as a person and PC advocate. I hope he is able to pull through as long as possible.

Stanvard reacted to Lildirt in Private Internet Access VPN: Yay or Nay?
I nothing but strongly recommend PIA. I pay about $40/year for their service and it's freaking outstanding. The customer service is a little iffy (the live chat is, haven't tried their ticketing system yet.. no need to as of right now).
If you use a Windows/OS X system, their client allows you to tune your security settings to your will. You can also enable DNS leak prevention and IPv6 leak prevention (two big flaws with people that simply don't know how to set up a VPN). You can also tell the client to slaughter your Internet connection if your VPN drops for some reason (happens, not often though).
Personally if I were using it on Windows I would just use their application for it as it has been well tested and rarely failed on me. The only problem with the last feature I mentioned (slaughters net if VPN drops) is that it disables DHCP and whatnot, so if for some reason your computer lost power or the stars aligned correctly, you'll have to re-enable DHCP for your main device in the event the client is failing to reconnect to the VPN services. You can also simply run a "Troubleshoot connection" on the primary network device used in your computer which will pretty much detect the problem immediately.
Or you can evade all of this trouble by using the built-in VPN client for Windows (or whatever client/OS you prefer) and setting it up that way.
As I am personally a Linux user, it's wonderful using gnome-network-manager. I haven't dropped my connection yet and I have basically no problems when it comes to connecting ever. My connection remains 100% behind the VPN and whatnot.
The server speeds are amazing as well. I don't have the best connection in the world anymore, but previous I had a 40Mbps/10Mbps (Comcast) connection and it wasn't restrained much at all. Now I only have a 17Mbps/1Mbps connection (thanks AT&T, you worthless scumbags!) and it still doesn't really lose any speed. You might lose a mbit or two, but I haven't noticed any delay. I personally always use the US-East servers, however (which are in a prime location in Manhattan).
They're pretty huge on privacy as well from what I can tell. Don't do anything too shady, though. They might not have any log retention (or so they claim), but that will probably not be enough to stop the feds from knocking on your door.
tl;dr strongly recommended.

Stanvard reacted to AlexStriz in LTT drinking game
Judging by the fact that most of the people on this forum are probably under 15.. I don't really think this is such a good idea..

Stanvard reacted to amintha1992 in Community Opinion - Ads by FanDuel?
personally i don't think gambling is something that LTT should be promoting.
that does not mean I'm going to unsub because you ran an add for that company. but then again a lot of people might be upset.
plus there is a lot of young, very young members in this community and it might be unfair of them if you guys start promoting adult only thing.
Think about this, If i saw my kid watching a video that promote something that's out of his age. there is a chance that he or she is not going to watch again.
also a lot of people seem to have concerns about spam, redirects and other shady stuff. may be take a second look.

Stanvard reacted to Maheshvara in Community Opinion - Ads by FanDuel?
All i'm seeing is people running around, usually chasing a ball. There are some interesting tidbits, but they're even less than 1 min long...
No thanks. For 90 min. (one football match), i can read at least 30 pages (depends on the book), or watch a movie, or do something that will actually entertain me

This should probably be the LMG slogan, with what Linus has been doing to their hardware so far

Stanvard reacted to Midnitewarrior4 in Open Letter to Linus Media Group
Listen man if you think their being racist and abusing Denis cause he's new and the fact that's he's Asian check out Berkels chanel and you will see that Berkel taran and Denis went to college together for a couple years and made videos together so obviously there friends and it's just some friendly fun and screwing around to have fun, if he didn't like it he would leave simple as that, and if you don't like it ou can leave or just not watch the videos, simple as that

Stanvard reacted to Counter-Strike Player in Open Letter to Linus Media Group
OP, you claim this an "open letter;" however, did you personally print it out and mail it to the LMG HQ in BC, Canada? Because if you didn't, then it's not a "letter" and simply an internet forum post garnering unneeded attention and speculation from users who do not know the inner operations at LMG by 1 iota.
