Darkmaster29 got a reaction from lookpuppy in Stuttering on Laptop Acer Predator Helios 300
So i've got the laptop back on January 2018 and at it was a bargain, US$999.99+Shipping, however, when it comes to thermals that thing does not handle it well. It is Throt
With low usage (and RDP session, and couple of chome tabs) it is averaging 70 C.
Do you guys have any ideas on how to improve the thermals on this damn thing?

Darkmaster29 got a reaction from Tech_Dreamer in Github able to withstand a massive DDoS
OP: https://www.wired.com/story/github-ddos-memcached/
Using memcached servers, allegedly chinese state sponsored hackers were able to launch a massive DDoS attack to the Github servers for over 1Tbps of load. When github realized this they relay all the traffic to their DDos Mittigation service with Akamai Tech.
The whole attack lasted between 15-20 minutes. ThousandEyes was able to determine that the traffic payload was over 1.3 Tbps.
Known as an amplification attack, this type of DDoS has shown up before. But as internet service and infrastructure providers have seen memcached DDoS attacks ramp up over the last week or so, they've moved swiftly to implement defenses to block traffic coming from memcached servers.
"Large DDoS attacks such as those made possible by abusing memcached are of concern to network operators," says Roland Dobbins, a principal engineer at the DDoS and network-security firm Arbor Networks who has been tracking the memcached attack trend. "Their sheer volume can have a negative impact on the ability of networks to handle customer internet traffic."
