[GeneralQuestions] First time buyer.

I've been lurking for a few weeks now and I am just now going to get started I have a few questions.

What are the minimal specs required for my burner laptop that will be running tails

I have two drop options that seem feasible in my opinion but if not please criticize and steer me in the right direcion.

Old friend's parent died and the house was left to him and is one street over but it's empty and I am not sure if it still regularly receives mail. With this option should I use his last name to make sure it gets delivered and not taken down to the depot?(typing this now I am thinking I need to either find a way to check w/ out asking him or send junk mail a few times myself)

My other option would be send it directly across the street to my elderly neighbor and grab when it arrives, BUT I would need to wait and stake it out just to be safe and in that time they may get the mail and I was thinking I could fix that possible issue IF I use my last name so even if I miss the delivery they will just walk it over to my house un-opened. Then the package will be tied to me in some way if I do that.

Any advice would be appreciated i'm trying to go over as much as I can before I get deeper so there are no slip ups.

Dude. I've never said this to anyone on here but I'm saying it to you: DON'T BUY DRUGS ONLINE. All of your drop ideas are fucking moronic and will put you in way more risk than having shit sent straight to your house. You have absolutely no idea about opsec and you want to start buying QPs? Get the entire fuck out of here. That's a HUGE amount of weed for a kid. The most you should be buying is a bud or two for personal use.

The last thing this community needs is another news story about some kid who bought drugs on the internet and ended up doing something stupid. Just wait a couple of years until you move out of home or you become old enough that you won't be grounded for buying drugs online.

Also, involving your neighbours and friends in your lawbreaking is a really shitty thing to do. Your friend is dealing with the death of his parent. The last thing he needs is a whole bunch of drama with the cops because some snotty nosed fuckwit from down the street mailed drugs to his dead parent's empty house. That's fucking incredibly thoughtless. FUCK.

You can run tails on almost anything. I used to run it on an old ass netbook that's weaker than an iPhone 5 lol. Also, it's MUCH better to send your packs to YOUR house in YOUR Name. Both situations you listed seem really sketchy. Remember that to everyone but you and the vendor, you are using the mail for a completely legal reason. You're just receiving mail like you would from Amazon.

PS: this is your decision and you should do NOTHING that could potentially incriminate someone else, especially if they have literally no idea you're using them. That's fucked.

According to the USPS AMA most post offices keep record of empty/abandoned houses, all of your drop ideas are terrible, do not do that.

If you can't man up and use your real name and address then don't do it or open a PO box under your name.

I'm still young and live at home, I could use my name and order it to my house but it would really fuck things up if I end up with a love letter at my house but it seems that is my only option. I am in the states and it would be personal (edibles) until I find a legitimate vendor and then I will be wanting to get QP's. Really appreciate all the replies.

Unless you live with others that could be harmed by you ordering use your real info and address.

If by some ridiculous stroke of bad luck the item were to be seized and it has my name/address on it how would I be able to deny if they REALLY looked into it?

Your goal is risk minimization. Sending it to an address you don't really control runs the risk of mail getting stopped/forwarded/whatever. Also, sending to an elderly neighbor and essentially stealing her mail is a very bad idea - you could be seen for one. What if you get caught with the pack in hand that is not addressed to you - your plausible deniability might go out the window - or at the very least give you an uphill battle.

Are you in the states or elsewhere? Know your local laws and your rights. There are tried and true ways that work. ALmost every time I've read about a package getting intercepted (clearnet news, may or may not be DNM related), it always has to do with address and drop shenannigans. Since you're new I'm assuming personal amounts.

Here's the way to minimize your risks - use a good vendor who knows how to send shit. Use an address you control. Keep good computer safety. When you mix in an address that may or may not send the mail through or that you may or may not be able to fetch before the tenant, you introduce unnecessary risks.

Whats wrong with your own address?

Honestly the best way if you dont have a friend that lives alone (you should order in his name if you go that way) not some abandoned house or elderly neightbor, those are terrible options.

Get a po box. Also you sou d underage. Dont fuck your parents over. And i agree with others your ideas are stupid.

Po box or.nothing for you is my recommendation

Real name real address. Just a normal package. Just re read your post. You mentioned like all the major reasons that usps would flag you. I'm glad you posted this bc you wouldn't have made it very long without something going wrong.
