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

    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.

      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?

    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.

      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.

      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
