Random Thought Thread

Do you know how many containers of goods come into U.S. ports on any given day...or cross our land borders, or fly in via commercial aircraft?

^^ This.

I was involved in a project several years back related to this, involving a realtime feed of container traffic at the Port of LA. I got a bit of a feel for how much we import. You can view their traffic statistics. They're currently moving a bit under 900,000 containers per month. I don't know how many warm bodies you'd need to inspect 30,000 containers a day, but I'm pretty sure a lot of people would get upset about the tax bill for their services.

And that's just one port.

Well, as long as they're not smuggling in too many nuclear weapons from three or four countries that I can think of that hate us, I'm sure it's probably not a problem.
 
The tragic irony is, they have access to my information because I'm a victim of the Experian data hack

So the very companies that are supposed to monitor our creditworthiness are the ones responsible for damaging my creditworthiness
Once I was sending crypto to my own wallet.


I always do a test transaction first — you know, like $10, and then send the rest afterward.


It’s crypto, after all — no customer support or anything like that.


So I transferred $10 to myself.


Suddenly, I started receiving a bunch of $0.01 transactions from a wallet that looked almost identical to mine — out of 42 characters, only a couple were different.


What was the scammers’ plan?


They were counting on you accidentally selecting the last transaction, right?


But the scammers didn’t realize they’d run into an idiot like me.


They accidentally sent me their multi-address and even a link to the contract.


It worked a bit clumsily, but the idea was: I send them the token, and they cover the fee so it all looks clean — as if you’re really sending it to yourself.


The fee was around a real $0.001.


Overall, their plan is actually pretty smart. If you mess up and pick the last transfer by mistake, you could theoretically send them a huge amount of your money by accident.


BUT!


I created my own token in literally a couple of minutes and minted 210 trillion coins of it. :rolleyes:


Then I started spamming their multi-address with massive amounts of these tokens. Lol, I can print as many as I want.


For every transaction, they had to pay the $0.01 fee.


I basically DDoSed them with transactions that were completely free for me.
(Basically, I was paying the commission/fees using the tokens I created myself.)


I’m not entirely sure, but by my calculations — while drinking beer and having fun — I burned them over 10 000$
(I stopped doing it when they no longer had anything left to pay the transaction fees.)

Their plan was quite clever, but they didn’t account for that 0.1% chance…!

Most likely, it worked out for me because the code and the contract were probably written for them by AI, or something like that, lol.


A normal person wouldn’t have made such an obvious mistake in the code.


On the other hand... They’re scammers...

I hope you don't get murdered

I really mean that.

I really hope you don't get murdered.

I haven't known you very long and I don't really know you very well but I sincerely hope you don't get murdered.

But. If you do get murdered. Can I have your sword collection?

Was waiting for the assistant manager to come back from lunch.......

What's that saying "idle hands do the......"


By the time I was finished the whole desk including 2 screens were covered in sticky notes.... on top of that my apprentice walked into the office to ask me something..... seen what I had done and immediately took a sharpie to the assistant managers phone and made all the buttons black (I'm so proud..... he is learning so quickly! lol)

I had to crop a lot out of the picture because of customer info.... but this was the beginning

I just started having fun, but now I need to sleep…


If you could disable one of your needs, which one would you disable? Like, without any consequences.


I would disable the need for sleep.


And another question. What would you choose? To scream when you poop or to poop when you scream?


The question is completely serious, without your jokes and all that.

1 that's a good question ,I don't really have an honest answer right now

2 that is easy...... scream when I poop.....I think that would be hilarious and everyone would know what I was doing
 
Why spend the extra $$ on the real thing when you can just swap grills and pretend you've got the real thing. No one notices the back anyway.
