drinklime got a reaction from Yellow_ in My Grandma needs tech support
Linus Posted a video on recovering a hard drive, but if you follow the instructions you will lose all your data. So don't watch it. You will have to hire the company in the video instead, which makes me think it may have been some kind of viral video advertisement.

drinklime reacted to SeanDavis in im an old man i dont know what monitor to get for gtx 970
May I just say, this is impressive. I suggest hiding those molex connectors in the back and zip tying them to the cable management places on the back of the motherboard tray. My suggestion is maybe to look at an ultrawide

drinklime reacted to BlueChinchillaEatingDorito in CBC Marketplace: Using Social Engineering to take over your Accounts. Sound familiar Linus?
CBC doing yet again another public service piece regarding the dark secrets of the technological world.
This time, they're using Social Engineering to deactivate a SIM card and activate a rogue one. This is reminiscent to the attack against LinusTechTips and NCIXcom channels back in 2011.
The unfortunate part is that all of these mechanisms need to be designed for the lowest common denominator. Which is your most likely your grandpa, grandma, or technology illiterate relatives. Anything outside of personal information is easily forgotten or is too complicated and just frustrates customers. I've seen my father rage at those banking security devices all too often. They're hit or miss and can easily lead to an account being disabled.
Even in my workplace, the only way we can authenticate employees is through having them report their contact details and in all honesty is not that much different that the procedures displayed by that Rogers employee.

drinklime got a reaction from bleedblue in EQUAL RIGHTS FOR DENNIS!!
Linus probably decided Dennis doesnt make enough money for him, so he banned him from the videos. That's all Linus cares about is money with his new empire. At least that is my opinion.

Linus T-shirts should be available for men and women no excuses

I cannot even believe what I am reading here. Discrimination based on gender is NOT ACCEPTABLE. I would have thought this was already settled years ago.

So you're saying that it's better to be sexist, than it is to lose a little bit of money?
And I'm 100% sure that LTT will survive even after losing a little bit of money on a bunch of t-shirts.
EDIT: I'm also very disappointed in the people who said that "not selling women's t-shirts is okay". You guys should be ashamed of yourselves.

That's complete bullshit. There's no excuse for not having t-shirts for women, despite how small the market for them is.

Wow what you guys are saying is the definition of sexism that you have to face as a woman in a male dominated world.
No I won’t accept that due to being in the minority I can’t buy merch. And I won’t buy a men’s shirt cause they don’t fit me.
I can’t believe how mad I’m right now about reading those comments.
Btw. I really would like to order a form fitting LTT shirt too.
And guys why are you so keen on keeping us women out of the tech community?

Those videos are just for entertainment purposes as I've been told it's no longer a technical guide just a comedy show.
