HDFXSB (@HDFXSB) reported@analogalok I’m currently reading the llamacpp GitHub. Trying to learn some of the flags. Hopefully I can try a few tonight after work. The server and gpu are all used off eBay. Thankfully I had 128gb ram to use. But everything was about a grand for each component. I thought when I bought it, I could run one large moa via my hermes, and several subagents. But without a special custom made nvlink for the v100’s, I don’t think that’s a viable option how I thought. So the new plan will be to use what fits per card, and each model will get a dedicated gpu. If I can find a nvlink to atleast couple two cards, I will try again combining cards. But the speed was unusable slow in my testing. Took over an hour for one prompt completion of a basic task with 3-4 moa at 256k. I ran qwen3.6:35bq8, qwen3.6:35ba38q8, qwen3.6:27bq8, as well as gemma4:12bq8 and gemma4:31bq8. I tried bf16 variants as well. My origional goal was to have a large moa, then several subs. After receiving the hardware, I ran into limitations on speed instantly

C (@honestJFishCo) reported@Vivek4real_ Maybe he can figure out how to get the seller fees on eBay down.

Scott Sleepy (@scott_sleepy) reportedI’m putting these thoughts down in the middle of the potential eBay bid because I do think Chewy has a role to play. Maybe it’s soon, maybe it’s a year from now, but I do think chewy is integral in helping blow up the basket. The Teddy books emphasized it way too hard.

Knzo (@0xKnzo) reportedCHINESE DEV BOUGHT A 64-CORE EPYC SERVER FOR $600 ON EBAY AND MADE $340K LAST YEAR WHILE HIS EX-COFOUNDERS BURNED SERIES A ON ANTHROPIC BILLS Bare EPYC board on a workbench. CAUTION sticker still over the CPU socket. Yellow braided cables everywhere. $2,200 build. $130 power. $3,550 per client. Pause at 0:06 — the CAUTION sticker on a 2023 hyperscaler CPU now earning thousands monthly. Most devs spawn another $8/hr GPU pod on Modal every morning. He bought a returned server for $600 and never paid rent again. The moat isn't Nvidia. The moat is willingness to search "used EPYC" on eBay. Full setup in the video.

Kage Invests 影 (@Investmentkage) reported@alexthegoodlife @SparkingFIRENC Found it’s easier to sell at shows and facebook groups. eBay takes a 13% fee. And I included shipping on all of my cards so really if I was selling lower value cards I didn’t make much. But that shows a lot of vendors need 1-10 dollar cards and a lot of them are happy to pay me 80% sometimes more if I sell an entire organized collection. There’s definitely ways to make money on eBay with bulk and stuff like doing master sets and stuff like that for hollows and non-hollows for collectors that want to get those easily and fast. But honestly, I’m a bit lazy and I treat this as a hobby and not a job. As long as my cost basis is zero or lower i don’t care haha. Also with eBay, it was a bit annoying to deal with some customers when you’re selling low value cards. I had the most problems with selling literally two dollar cards versus $200 cards. What if I just sell out a show or through Facebook groups it’s way easier less time intensive and I make more money on lower value cards.

The Really Bad Golfer (@therlybadglfer) reported@CardsMax 101% of the time it is the principle of the thing - you are unpacking and repacking a card you are in charge of it. It is at least 50% of your job to repack it securely. It is probably .00001 cents of tape to seal the holder at the top vs. just sealing the team bag. It is not reasonable that they do not fix it. The perception it creates is unaceptable and eBay should know this.

Chris Stephen (@reportingLibya) reported@starsnstripesfc The real issue is....FIFA needs to put red card suspensions on eBay. England would bid hard over our own carded player.
-
Nick Dodd (@nickdodd) reported@PaddyTofu eBay has a lot of terrible shipping collaborations. Probably the worst single e-tailer business ever created. Great gems on ebay, horrible RNG.

Brian Braggs (@TeamTradeology) reported🔥 $GME 👉 $TDDY 👉 $EBAY 🔥 Y’all realize Ryan Cohen has already put many of the pieces in place that would be needed to acquire eBay. If an LBO were also used to leverage a significant portion of eBay’s institutional ownership, that could materially reduce the cash required to complete the transaction. They wouldn’t necessarily need to issue anywhere near all of the newly authorized shares—even at GameStop’s current share price. If that’s the strategy, things could get very interesting from here. Of course, this is still speculation until the company announces something, but the pieces are becoming difficult to ignore.

Loud Luxury (@QuietLuxury89) reported@Doctor_HooLock @Jsmith_13_ @theTSupdates I have an account on Ebay and it's not in my searches. I'm in the US so I believe my searches are limited, so it could be an overseas seller. I generally don't see listings from the UK, Italy, etc. It's possible someone in a foreign country is selling it or it was taken down.
-
The New Mocha Joe (@TheNewMochaJoe) reported@TheRabb1e Oh, im in...for a long time even I just dont see any big move for GME in the next 3 years. Maybe down if he gets ebay. Long term its a good bet. But no RK or short squeeze and anything like that. That's gone... if you're right, im a happy guy.but...nah

🍃 (@nikewrayy) reported@amplifiedpoop2 @oscarwkrtech real. only problem with those Pros is that it get scratched so easily like all the 7 Pros i saw on ebay last time were having scratches lmao
-
Retired Trader 🇺🇸 (@RetiredTrader_) reported@x26457474 I have 2 twelve year old simple Brothers. Never a single problem with either. Buy an old used one on ebay. I have a 2350 and a 2700. I think the 2350 was $49 new.
-
Contradictory Crow (@thedave9081) reported@maietta Call progressive and explain the issue to sales and that you would like to switch today. These companies are too large and there's to many people to fix glitches like this. They just won't because they get paid anyway. I had the reverse happen with eBay. 18 months to get my money
-
C.D.’s Cards (@cdscards) reported@eddiemcpigskin @eBay eBay just needs to burn down their authentication packaging and start from new
-
Andy Villanueva (AVIIICollectibles) (@avillanueva3rd) reported@RepkoJoseph @CardPurchaser OMG!! Just file a claim thru eBay and you’ll get your money back. Really isn’t a big issue. My two cents and definitely sent this with more snark than intended. But I’m too lazy to retract.

Scott Sleepy (@scott_sleepy) reportedHere’s the real sauce: July 11, 2027 I’m not joking. Ryan gets eBay and then they (Jerry) spends one year in the hospital. Ryan turns it around, kicks out the corruption, and sets it up big as a strong company. Issues are fixed, cash flow is good, and break into other sectors. Setting it up for transformation and true growth. ATMs into volatility this year. More acquisitions next year. Teddy (Gameshire Bathaway) emerges on July 10-12 2027. I am not joking. We may get a big squeeze this year. But true moass? 2027, just as the big show (Q) starts to go down. @overstock Gave us a 4 year delta on 7/10/23 Pulte said Ryan plans 2 years ahead Ryan gave us a 9-figure stapler on 7/10/25 Ryan said “sneak peak” (shorts) on 7/11/25 These all line up with 7/11 comms deltas for 2027. Teddy *needs* to be in the hospital for a year. Clean house, turn it around, set it up for the main event for multiple acquisitions and the evolution into Teddy Holdings. Ryan may get eBay on Monday Sept 7 this year. Volatility (squeeze) allows Ryan to use some of his 97M ATM to raise tons of cash, but it cools off a squeeze. The real moass is when we transform into Teddy July 10-12, 2027. I am not kidding here, I truly believe this the tinfoil. Cool **** will happen this year, but Teddy comes to fruition next summer. This is a conspiracy opinion, not financial advice. More images in the thread.

Daani (@Dan1346475) reported@eBay @landondonovan @JackWilshere Please move eBay live to its own platform. And fire whomever created Lilium AI and refuses to get people to fix it. The hallucinations of search results is just pathetic
-
Roaringalpaca (@Roaringalpaca4) reported$GME breaking 🚨 @ryancohen positive and negative actions. 1. The warrants are OTM and a complete failure (yet) 2. Share dilution to kill the squeeze 3. Bitcoin play down almost 40% 4. Saying the ebay filing comes in 1 week, 2 weeks passed and nothing! Postive actions below!

Michael Livesley (@NowtofTown) reported@CeeChampion Will do - it was ridiculously cheap too - speaking of cheap autobiogs on eBay - have you read Robert Stephens? I got it on there for pennies, despatched it within two days. Could NOT put it down.
-
Manul-Pilled Manulcel (@WestlannWyvern) reported@amerpipedream Neat, the problem is honestly shipping, a lot of sellers on eBay have wildly different prices/free shipping so it might be a little hard to compete with that tbh
-
AnnetteG (@Annette_HW101) reported@SEU727 @end3of6days9 The carrier was great. He was crate trained anyway so he would hop in no problem. I think I bought if off EBay. I stuck to paved trails as much as possible. I’d let him pace me for a bit, but then he’d go in for most of the ride. People would laugh because he’d be asleep
-
DickPapa’sHouseofCards (@DickPapa4) reported@Whyan_daOG @CardPurchaser @eBay They didn’t for me. I don’t understand how they don’t fix this.
-
Thomas Weiske (@Waldbrandgefa_r) reported@AlienMario64 Yes eBay App on iOS is not working
-
Chris F (@Chris83936803) reported@AMCbiggums Everyone fears big dilution but if we acquire ebay we will have a much much higher market cap and default share float.. so the math is completely new when RC would issue more shares. Am i wrong here?
-
**** Atic (@poonatic69) reported@idealideas The easiest wealth explosion is if 3 or 4 investors bought the rest of $IEP silently with no filing. 3 investors with 4.9% wouldn't have to file anything and there would be zero way for short sellers to ever fully close out. They would have to do it slow and buy in during post dividend price dips, but they could totally gobble up the rest. Then keep acquiring until someone notices and it is too late. Then use squeezed shares as collateral for loans to buy eBay if you still wish. You would still own over 100%, and wouldn't sell any shares as you us them to buy more stuff.

alkimiadev (@alkimiadev) reportedoh great, latam is in trouble now if these groups start targeting it. The security is laughably bad and so much so that even gov web sites in places like Mexico and Brazil do absurd things sometimes like disabling right click in the browser while also running 5+ year out of date wordpress based apps. I live in Argentina currently and find this a bit disturbing since mercado libre and mercado pago are tightly linked like how ebay and paypal used to be. Mercado pago getting pwned could turn into a major dumpster fire. I see this thing growing in latam in general because the comical security also extends to basically all mobile apps like rapi and pedidosYa(like uber eats) as just two almost obvious examples that almost certainly will get pwned eventually.

Kai🍃 (@HazyHalloween) reportedBought a PS5 with a broken HDMI port for $100, got it fixed for $130 and ended up with a perfect PS5 for $230. eBay is a wild place.
-
Jane Rochford Boleyn 🇬🇧 (@VictoriaHa50399) reported@ADryden76796 @juleindenial It is nothing like it used to be, that is for sure. There are to many demands to "sign in" & multiple signs in for this that & the other. Can not even buy a cutlery set from ebay now unless you have a credit card. It is MAD!
-
CreekChubs (@creekchub15) reportedTomorrow wouldn’t surprise me if $GME announces plans to table going after $EBAY for the foreseeable future. eBay is navigating several major legal and regulatory issues, including a revived cyberstalking lawsuit, whistleblower claims, and European regulatory actions.
