I love the idea of sending an army of meth zombies after all the data centers. They'll be trying to cut the fence in multiple places, simultaneously, all night, every night, making security and fence repair one of their highest, and most unexpected expenses.

Lol.

Clearly you've never been close to a data center.

Is just a meme lol I assume you're referencing the physical security of data centers, but you have no idea what the POWER OF METH can bring!

I once knew a methhead who sold the alternator out of his truck (to buy meth), but since it was diesel, managed to drive it around by just getting a jump every time he needed to start it.

There's that meth turning on a brain's overdrive.

Getting a jump, or steeling a new battery?

I remember during a slide deck this third party saas went on to say their data centers are laser guarded and their services are insanely secure only to be hacked by some John from community college later that year due to bfla bug or something

So either the DCs get wrecked, or we have less meth heads. Or both. Win/win.

An SFP+ fiber transceiver module goes for anything from a hundred to five thousand bucks. Very easy to remove as well (not that I would encourage such destructive behaviour). Can buy a lot of crack for five thousand bucks.

HugeNerd@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 101d (3 replies)

Not that easy to remove, you think a methhead can muster the concentration to remove the fibers one by one, then pull on the bail?

prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 100d

Sounds like the exact kind of thing a meth head would excel at actually

mastertigurius@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 100d (1 reply)

Depends whether they're jonesing, I guess?

oopsgodisdeadmybad@lemmy.zip · 1 pts · 100d

They're metheads. They're only jonesing when they're not consuming.

And probably even then.

You know what, fuck it, this is credible.

I read this as "local metalheads" and was genuinely confused. Came to the comments to seek for a joke explanation, saw someone mention methheads, checked the meme again.

I hate this joke. The implication is that "methheads" (deragatory term for addicts) are expendable and that the joker's life is more valuable.

Formfiller@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 100d (2 replies)

Not expendable but in jail at least they get three hots and a cot and most are probably going anyway so it might as well be for a good cause

Mac@mander.xyz · 1 pts · 100d (1 reply)

You're going to die anyway,

far_university1990@reddthat.com · 2 pts · 100d

Addict usually end up jail much quicker than average person die. Not fair compare.

Also this joke, take as such.

Formfiller@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 100d

Yes but you can only extract it with fire
