Also don't tell anyone about huge amounts of ram sticks that you can easily get out by hundreds.
Probably ECC unfortunately
Unfortunately? The unregistered stuff works in most AMD boards. You can trade the GPUs for a car strait up. Or the whole blade for a house.
They aren't DIMMs so basically no resale value. Only usable for data center servers.
Then they need to be freed as a whole to become data centers of the people, run by the people.
There are Chinese back-alley workshops already lifting the NAND modules from them and installing them on standard DIMM modules.
Edit: meant DRAM modules.
As someone who has actually had to service gear inside an equinox data center I'll tell you this: mostly unstaffed yes but more secure than a bank. I had I think six layers of security to get through including badge readers, man traps, palm scanners and combination locks.
You'd be amazed what a determined meth addict with a crowbar can do.
The new ones for AI etc. are nowhere near a bank level security.
Pretty easy to knock a hole in a concrete slab wall and have full access to the goods if somebody wanted too.
Looking at them I'm not even sure you'd need to break concrete, I'm pretty certain they're thin wall steel construction. A circular saw would make a nice doorway.
What is a man trap?
Apparently this:
Mantrap: “Fool, no man can escape me!”
Eowyn: pulls off her helmet
So an airlock?
Basically, but man traps are not usually airtight or even have a pressure differential. Usually just a room that can only be opened externally and only one exit can be opened at a time.
Correct
What I'm reading is "bring a bottle jack" and just pry the thing in half.
The thing you avoid by driving a stolen car into the outside wall.
I don't know how legit this is, but I heard that datacenters also where people store their catalytic converters when they change to electric vehicles.
Shhh! They're gonna find out that every server rack contains one T206 Honus Wagner card to function.
Is that where the cat distribution system stores them before giving them to cars? It's way too complicated for me to understand
Must be how they use so much water, too. Makes perfect sense.
(Seriously under the hood of a bolt the only interesting thing there that isn't sealed in a metal box is three separate cooling fluids plus washer fluid. Just so much fluid.)
And dont forget the copper cables lining the walls, powering the systems. Absolute treasure trove in there.
I heard of a guy who not only sold the copper but also the palladium and gold and made a fortune. Now he drives a Mercedes.
I'd do it for a Ford.
Shit, if they're as noisy as I hear some of the AI ones are, I'd do it for some god damn peace and quiet.
It's a small step from "robotic guard dogs," to "armed robotic guard dogs."

You know how much gold and platinum is in a robot attack dog? Free ammo too!
My money is on the crackheads with facepaint and sledge hammers
Seriously just gotta give the crackheads a slingshot, some rags and a bucket of paint and that dog is blind
Absolutely should not tell people that fire is its weakness, and damaging data centers hurts insurance companies more because of equipment replacements, and rebuilding structures costs + manpower and whatnot.
Don't fire them until after you've taken the ram
Uh, or not I am too high to backwards words that
they're also filled with gpus...
A commom mistake bank robbers make is that they take more gold than they can carry, stuff is heavy. I feel GPUs are similar in their value to weight ratio, RAM is much lighter and easier to take a lot of. Imagine the value of a backpack full of GPUs vs one full of RAM sticks.
You're probably right that the value density of RAM sticks is better... But NVidia B300 GPUs are still ~$45,000 each. A backpack full is still quite a lot of money.
The staff wont stop you but if you arent familiar with how to isolate electrical equipment with more than one source of power you might get yourself killed.
Sadly the one by me has a small army of armed guards...
Just because there's a goalie doesn't mean you can't score!
Ever heard of a man trap?
Every data center I've been to uses them. Best part is if you don't know what you're looking at, you'd have no idea the foyer was constructed as a man trap.
Don't need much security when you have a man trap.
Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
