❗️ Cargo thieves have stolen more than $100M in hardware bound for US data centers since June, NBC News reports. They hijack freight-broker accounts, post fake loads and send carriers malware links to take over their accounts too. In one of the biggest heists, an SUV struck the security escort of a trailer carrying ~$10M in server rack components from California to Texas. The trailer sped off. An app was tracking it, but its coordinates had apparently been spoofed. In another, a sedan hit the off-duty police escorts of a $13M server load bound for Georgia, and the trailer drove on. None of the equipment from either load has been found.

Holy crap that was wild. I’m so grateful for the magic of AI today. Driving my family back to Texas from the Bama game, munching on a sandwich. Suddenly I see a radial saw blade upright and rolling in my lane. I can’t stop or swerve safely, so I make sure it avoids my tires and I straddle it. We hear a crash and all stop breathing as we brace for the repercussions. No flat tire. No weird noises. We’re good, right? Wrong. A minute later we smell gas. Uh oh. Well we had just filled up RIGHT before then. Maybe I spilled on myself? Nope. This was too strong. We rolled the windows down, took the next exit and pulled into the Dollar General in Cheniere, Louisiana. GAS WAS DRIPPING EVERYWHERE. Crap crap crap. It was 100% full, too. The leak was right on the edge of the tank, making it even more tricky. It was a puncture and a gash. How do you stop a leak as it’s leaking? Whereas flextape when I need it? Lol What to do? Say a prayer and then ask Claude. Claude told me to rub a bar of soap into the hole. Huh?? Soap? Ok bro. So I got the same soap I showered with this morning and rubbed it all up in the openings as gas dripped down into my elbow. It stopped. Just like that. Then go get JB Weld from inside Dollar General. So I got that plus duct tape, a couple towels, sandpaper, paper towels and duct tape. I mixed the putty together, scratched the surface of the tank for better bonding, dried it all off and applied the putty with a plastic knife. Then let it dry, then another layer, then let it dry and harden. Then covered it with duct tape, for good measure. It’s been bone dry ever since. I’ve been stopping periodically to check and we’re almost home. Tomorrow it goes to the Toyota dealership. Today I’m grateful for prayer, and AI.

This is how it turned up!
