In this episode Eli the Computer guy talks about receiving spam auto replies when he sent out his bulk email yesterday. He explains why this is a good idea from a spammers perspective, and the thought processes that can be learned by this technique. What about signing up for small business and small organization newsletters so you can spam them when they blast you with an email newsletter?

Continue the Conversation at http://www.GeekBrainDump.com Today's Topic: Drobo Storage Arrays allow you to easily maintain and grow your data storage using BeyondRAID. This technology acts as a type of automatic RAID. You don't have to manually do anything other than swap out a drive if there is a failure, and if you want to grow your storage array you simply pull out the smaller drive and plug in a bigger one. With the built in Thin Provisioning you don't even have to worry about resizing partitions. Array speed with our tests with 4 7200 RPM drives came in around 200MB/s for Read and Write which should be fine for most applications. Additionally for more expensive units you can add mSATA SSD as a cache to dramatically improve throughput of files you are actively working on.

The Silicon Trailer has been a surprising success. When I originally had the idea of meeting viewers with tech problems while traveling I figured one or two people per month would take me up on the offer. Instead every place I go people are willing to travel just for a sit down meeting. This week someone is even driving 4 hours one way, and staying in a hotel just to discuss their issues. With this in mind I've decided to launch "Geek Camp". Most of the RV Parks my wife and I stay at offer not just RV Spots, but also tent camping and even cabin rentals. Since we will start staying in places 2-4 weeks at a time I'll have more energy to talk with viewers about their tech issues and try to walk them through solving their problems. The idea is that I'll tell you all which RV Park I'm staying at, and you can arrange your accommodation with the place on your own. In the morning I'll spend an hour or two talking about what you're trying to do, I'll then go off and do whatever I plan to in the day, and at night we can sit down and discuss your progress. The plan is to start this once we reach the Seattle area...

YouTube upheld a Community Guideline Strike against a 2.5 year old half assed video that I would have been fine with simply deleting. This means I lost the right for 6 MONTHS to upload long form vids, plus even be able to dispute other infractions. YouTube has made it clear it has not real concern about content creators. I will continue to upload small videos to this and the other channel, but YT will no longer be my primary focus. If someone with 626K Subs isn't worth a simple phone call there is no argument for why it's worth investing real effort to this platform.

Follow CES 2016 at http://www.youtube.com/elicomputerguy... Schedule a Skype Meeting with Eli: https://silicondiscourse.com I'm flying off to CES 2016 tomorrow for the rest of the week.
