@anttipeltola really looking forward to buying a house-sized engine and a stack of 800G switches for $600 off eBay when this AI bubble finishes popping.

Powering that up will be a nice way to wake up the neighbourhood in the morning. Like the asshat that had a Rolls-Royce RB211 turbofan in his backyard with an air starter.

@anttipeltola I live near an airport, surrounded by roads full of asshole "tuners" driving open-exhaust cars, boats and motorcycles. My neighbours won't notice!

Ooh, yeah. That will be a nice upgrade from my current mix of 100G, 40G, and 10G. -

@johnefrancis you're going to need that $600 to get a cup-o-noodle.
