Authorities recover $1.3 million worth of data center supplies and equipment in a truck stop near Chicago. Equipment like this is a prime target for theft rings given its high value, but it's also likely difficult to sell given its specialized nature.

    You love to see it.

    Unfortunately, with the state of this country I could also see aggressive militarized private security getting more popular around this shit.

    A cat in a business suit, reading a newspaper at a table with a teacup in front of him, thinking to himself "I should hijack a delivery truck."

    I might have to rewatch The Fast and the Furious. Now it’s just AI hardware instead of VCRs or whatever it was in the movie.
