      Unfortunately it won’t be consumer grade memory, so don’t get your hope up.

        There are 2nd hand AMD Epyc motherboards and CPUs that are currently cheaper than the RDIMM memory needed to do anything with useful with them.

      Its dubai-- they’ll have slaves out there picking up the ram before the fires are even put out. Although to be fair, they have been slowly getting better. They only have about 1.4% of the population enslaved at this point.

    Seems more like they are calling their shots to show the US military cant stop them. “9 ball, corner pocket”.

    As a counter to their swagger, I say we surround those buildings with our well-trained and highly-competent ICE agents. As the missiles rain down they can shoot them out of the sky with their rifles. Its worth a try.

        I know they’re both fired but being the patriots they are I bet Kristi Noem and Pam Bondi would be willing to help out as well. Hell you know Pete Hegseth would do wonders for this country if he was over there. Send the whole crew over. It would be the most patriotic thing Trump could do.

      Agreed, Its not like the AI answers from my alexa can get any worse. Bombing some shitty corporations data centers has pretty much nothing at all to do with the American public. Some rich arseholes will lose a few dollars they dont care about and life will go on as usual.

      Maybe some AI product launches will be delayed, which is a net win for the entire planet.

    Do it and nothing of real value to humanity will be lost.
    Except of course the monetary value of the AI chips. and those are owned by the 1%, so taking away some of their control, Iran will actually do Democracy of the world a favor.

    You gotta give it to Iran for being completely unbested when it comes to identifying pressure points (markedly ahead of the largest economy in the world.)

      Large but young. A civilization as old as Iran’s will know a thing or two about real politik and how to utilize leverage. Iran could easily come out of this a regional power as it has been throughout history. China has also risen much closer to its historical global standing and India is accelerating in that direction also. We are watching an era of Western hegemony fade away and it is fascinating to see. Doubt it will be as bad as the fall of the Romans and 1000 years of religious dogma and anti-intellectualism but this is a high risk period for sure.

      they know the most of the democratic countries are head flimsily by AI economically, so they target where it will likely cause the bubble to occur faster.

        Good to keep in mind it is still an oppressive theocracy with public killings and their own flavor of violent regime thugs, working above laws, just like Russia has their militia and US has their ICE etc.

        But, in comparison to this current flavor of the US, I too find myself preferring Iran here, and not only because they are the victim here, which is just bonkers in any objective sense. The world is just nuts.
