1.3 million dollar heist
So they stole 256 GB of DDR5 ram modules?
Hahahaha,
It’s funny cause by their nature, they would only want to build these things, which are filled with valuable equipment, in poor neighbourhoods.
It’s why they haven’t reported to building them in third world countries.
Modern day Robin Hood and his merry men liberated stolen electronics and gave them back to the people, i know they won’t but it’s nice to dream of a better world.
Only problem is that these assets aren’t really useful to a lot of people unless they happen to have a data center in which to run them. You could put a rack in your garage and run a little, but as you might have heard, these bastards eat a LOT of power. Most homes don’t have the capacity for this, even most businesses would be pushing it.
I mean if they wanted to hurt the businesses who are buying it, they’d just have to throw the equipment in a pool or something.
It’s not about the hardware. Its a message.
Nah, unless you have examples I don’t really buy that. you definitely could make use of most of it with a minimal amount of resourcefulness.
I think everyone understands these are specialized components, but even a slightly above average homelabber would go to town on it.
It’s… it’s not just trucks of RAM and GPUs?
Has anyone questioned this guy.

I heard the cop they sent to go undercover and bust him had too much fun at Race Wars.
Sacrifices everything for the family.
Data centers use VCRs?
This will make the hardware cheaper

Almost as excited for these guys as the Louvre heisters. The Louvre people had a little more panache.
Remember when that whole deal devolved into focusing on that one kid with a special interest in fashion
Nope! I’ve no idea what that is about.
I hope this doesn’t keep happening… that would be just awful.
I what what the name of their eBay store is
Not all heroes wear capes
Play stupid games, win prizes. Its almost like ruining the future for many people makes them desperate to survive.

No ice
Was wondering when this was gonna start happening
There have been some really dramatic things done in the past couple of years that weren’t mentioned in the media. We all know about Brian Thompson meeting one of the Mario Bros, but you dont hear about what happened to Wesley Leplatner. We heard about the TP warehouse ("all you had to do is pay us enough to live) but you haven’t heard about any of the others.
The pattern seems to be: Thing happens to rich person/big company. Thing is mentioned on the news. The public reacts the “wrong” way. Then the media doesn’t mention all the other times it happens.
Yup, at least this time the rich were smart enough to no not to point out how vulnerable there inventory sec is so more people don’t get ideas this time round.
I have wasted a significant portion of my adult life in warehouses. Most of them have very little security, sometimes physical barriers, but nothing that can’t be defeated.
