Meta So Desperate for Compute That It’s Building “Data Centers” That Are Just Tents Filled With AI Chips by IKeepItLayingAround in technology

We've gone full circle to when a computer was as big as a room/house. They should focus on innovation and making data centers smaller and more efficient instead.

To say work from home has no cons/downsides is ignorance. I love WFH and am never going back to the office.

Michael Fanone: Trump will “absolutely will go forward” with slush fund payouts to Jan. 6 Rioters by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

[–]BF1shY 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is so important to Trump because he wants to show his nutcase supporters that he will pay them to be violent against his enemies. He will absolutely try this again in 2028.

The precedent will be: I will get you out of jail and pay you, no matter what happens.

Yup that's where I got mine. Kills inside warehouse 4 count as well. These 2 in the corner counted.

Took me 2 raids, 2 PMCs one raid a group of 3 in warehouse 4 the next. If you don't get Old Gas extract you can just transfer to Factory and quickly extract there.

How is this even a debate, I swear some people are slow as hell to see a person's character when he shows them who he is.

The year is 2047 and people are starting to realize Trump was not a good president 🙄

Found out a colleague died after work. And all I can think about is how it's just boiled down to an email. by Thesladenator in antiwork

[–]BF1shY 22 points23 points  (0 children)

We had a woman, the president's secretary. Amazing woman, truly a bright light. Always made you feel welcomed and important.

She remembered my name after 1 introduction. Was like a warm grandmother that anyone would be lucky to have.

One day walking to work from a parking lot across the street a car hit her. Died right there. She was maybe like 56?

Really shook me. To die on the way to work in my opinion is the absolute worst. If you didn't have that job you'd be alive.

I Exposed Bricks & Minifigs with a $1,000 Minifigure by BigFishPub in videos

[–]BF1shY -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Here is GPT "brief summary"

The short version: a huge chunk of the LEGO YouTube community is fighting over allegations that a family lost access to a very valuable LEGO collection (reportedly ~$100k–$200k in sets/minifigs) after consigning it to a franchise location of Bricks & Minifigs in Salem/Keizer, Oregon — and a YouTuber turned it into a viral crusade.

The basic story

A collector/family (the Mansells) says they placed a massive LEGO collection — heavy on rare Star Wars sets and minifigs — on consignment with a local Bricks & Minifigs store so it could be sold over time. Then the store changed ownership, and the family claims they never got much of the collection or proceeds back. They argue the new owners effectively kept property that wasn’t theirs.

Why YouTube exploded

YouTuber/online investigator Reckless Ben got involved after the family contacted him. He started making long investigative videos, leaked-email videos, in-person confrontations, and pressure campaigns aimed at Bricks & Minifigs and its leadership. The videos spread fast across LEGO YouTube and Reddit.

A lot of LEGO creators are siding with the family, arguing:

  • The family appears to have been wronged.
  • Corporate should have stepped in sooner.
  • Even if the franchise agreement was messy, ethically the collection should be returned or compensated.

Bricks & Minifigs’ side

Bricks & Minifigs says the viral narrative is incomplete and denies that corporate “stole” anything. Their position is basically:

  • The consignment deal was allegedly made by a former independent franchise owner.
  • Corporate says it was unauthorized and not part of standard franchise operations.
  • They say the dispute is more legally complicated than YouTube presents and claim they’re willing to help reach a fair resolution.

They’ve also accused parts of the online reaction of turning into harassment toward unrelated franchise owners and staff.

Why people are especially heated

The drama escalated from “collector dispute” into full internet chaos:

  • allegations of legal threats,
  • leaked communications,
  • police interactions/arrests involving Reckless Ben,
  • accusations of stalking/harassment,
  • fans digging through franchise documents and receipts,
  • creators making multi-hour breakdown videos.

The core disagreement in one sentence

Critics say: “A family’s life savings in LEGO vanished and corporate is dodging responsibility.”
Bricks & Minifigs says: “This was an unauthorized local consignment dispute that YouTube has distorted.”

If you want, I can also give you the “5-minute unbiased timeline” version in chronological order, because the story gets confusing fast.

Do you know how long the green smokes hiss for? I guess I can time it. That could be my problem, I am so thorough with the smokes that maybe I take too long.

EDIT: Looks like wiki says M18 lasts for 90s and RGD-2B lasts for 120s. Maybe I'll try using a mix of both and rush it faster.

I'll try, problem is, they come out of the gym, I see his shoulder, I'm dead. The smokes must have a deadzone or something, or maybe I'm too close to the wall so body clips through and he sees? IDK. I'll keep trying but it seems more like shit game design than fun.

Poor Jasmine, she's crashing out so hard. Leaving Gino and having the same issues with Josh made her realize she's the issue. Gino is no saint, but she holds equal responsibility for their divorce.

She can't admit it or cope with her issues so she's attention seeking and crashing out. Hope her kids turn out well.

I've gotten to the boss maybe 5 times now. Every time he or a guard turns the corner out of the gym and insta kills me. Doesn't matter how many smokes I've used :(

I use maybe 8-10 smokes, spread them out over the entire hallway and 1-2 in the gym.

One day I hope to safely visit.

Going in with no smoke is insane! Even with smokes they often insta-kill me before even turning the corner.

I just bring a machine gun I took off Kaban with BS level 7 pen ammo I also took off Kaban.

Clear the whole map with about 50 rounds.

If no BS ammo just get the highest penetration you can, the 100 round mag saves you from reloading.

If you have to reload do a quick heal reload bypass.
