  How did I build a mini PC for $500? People don’t buy products; they buy brands. More often than not, you can buy the exact same product for less, just under a different name. Manufacturers tout impressive figures like ‘86 TOPS’, but in practice what matters is → Memory capacity → SSD → Bandwidth → Cooling I found a Beelink SER 8 with a Ryzen 7 8845 HS, 32 GB RAM and a 1 TB SSD on eBay for $480 Additional costs → External case: $25 Memory speed and RAM capacity are far more important. You don’t need 128 GB of RAM unless you’re running 70V models Here’s how things turned out after a week of using the mini PC LIama 3 works without any issues Qwen 3 responds instantly Electricity savings of around $20 a month AI subscriptions are free By buying a mini PC for yourself, you’re not just saving on electricity. You’re also saving on space. It will also be beneficial for companies not to have to maintain mini PCs, as they require no maintenance and incur no additional costs.

  @glacierptrading @Vfwbartender11 Why do you pick 30? Why not 60? 80? Would you be happy at $30? Prob not GME goes up and down. We all wanted a short squeeze. Ryan Cohen wants to buy eBay. These two things can work together, but it takes longer to capture the squeeze & get eBay. You either like the plan or sell.

  @xEPluribusUnum @EvangelionShots don’t use amazon unless it’s amazon japan, it’s safer to buy from individual japanese resellers only issue would potentially be shipping costs but i enable the « free international shipping » filter on ebay

  @CanonCsa @zebular0 True. Issue I have with that for starters is not a lot of people like GameStop. GameStops reputation is still ****. People will still go to eBay over GameStop marketplace.

  $EBAY DID NOT ANNOUNCE THE FINAL VOTE COUNT. They are still counting and results will be released in an 8K within 4 business days. $GME and its warrants are up sharply post-meeting. At the same time, a Federal Judge has reopened the harassment campaign lawsuit against eBay’s board and management. It looks like eBay’s in trouble…..

  @heistypokerdlr @CardPurchaser If you're in the US, once it gets to the facility where they ship it overseas (seems to be one in CA and one in IL) the transaction is complete on your end. I'm not sure if they might try to scam you for the money back after it gets to that point, but then it'd be you vs eBay. English Pokemon is big in SE Asia so there are a lot of people buying from that area of the world. I haven't had any issues personally.

  @RockSol1d_ Sorry to hear that. I had this exact problem recently. If you’re lucky you can buy/swap an individual solenoid. If not you might need to buy the whole module. Check out aftermarket parts on eBay. They’re very reasonable, and either swap it yourself or get the mechanic to do the install.

  @6days1week @heydomoshi Doesn’t matter in my opinion. Let’s say it passes and eBay’s board refuses or delays, it causes a huge problem for the eBay board, owners will wipe them out.

  🚨 4 OLD GTX 1080s FROM A DEAD MINING RIG NOW RUN LOCAL AI AND BEAT $400/MO IN SUBSCRIPTIONS 💀 Same cards. Same VRAM. New job. Pause at 0:10. Look at the terminal. "GPU #0: EVGA GTX 1080, 53.54 MH/s." "accepted: 902/937." "Stratum difficulty set to 44.1414." Bottom right corner: "11/23/2017." That is not an AI log. That is an Ethereum mining log from November 2017. Each one of those cards was a printer for ETH. Then Ethereum killed proof-of-work in 2022 and 50 million GPUs went into a closet. The same hardware now runs the second wave: → 4 used GTX 1080s off eBay, ~$100 each → Total stack: ~$400 → 8 GB of VRAM per card → Spread a model across them: 32 GB of usable memory → One desktop tower, one PSU, one shell command The install: → ollama install — one line → ollama pull qwen2.5 / mistral 7b / llama 3.2 / phi 3 — one line each → One environment variable to point Claude Code at localhost → Same CLI. Nothing flies to Anthropic. The performance on a 4 × 1080 stack: → 7B models: 80–120 tok/s, comfortable for chat and agents → 13B–30B with layer splitting: 40–60 tok/s, fine for real conversations → Token logs sit on the same SSD as the model → Zero cloud calls. Zero per-token bills. The math he just deleted: → ChatGPT Pro: $200/month → Claude Code Max: $200/month → Cursor: $20/month → Annual: $5,040 → The rig: $400 once → Payback: under two months → Year-two delta: thousands. Electricity only after that. The old loop is dead. Sign up. Pay $5K a year. Watch every prompt ship to someone else's server. Hit rate limits on the worst possible afternoon. Now the rig is a closet appliance that used to mine ETH and now writes code. Here's what nobody in the AI subscription space is saying out loud: The mining boom subsidized a decade of cheap consumer VRAM. Miners paid full retail. They burned a billion in electricity. They dumped the cards on eBay at one-fifth of new-price the moment proof-of-work died. You are now buying that hardware at the loss the miners ate — to run the workload the cloud is renting back to you for $5,000 a year. Most people are still arguing whether local AI is "ready." Meanwhile, the same cards that mined ETH at 5am in 2017 are writing their owner's code at 5am in 2026. Bookmark this. The race for cheap AI just left the new-product shelf. Literally.

  Now that ebay is changing its policy on returns ... I'm done. Folks have returned manuals after one time use ... parts after eliminating problems ... and multiple products after selling their car/motorcycle. It's stupid.

  A lot of new people here, this one’s for you. 🚨How to stop losing money to eBay return scammers. They buy your clean, working item… then ship back a broken piece of junk & demand a full refund. I recently learned this $7.49 trick & it’s an absolute game changer: Grab a cheap UV security pen (the exact one I use from amazon is in the photo). Before you ship, write a unique personal code or mark in a hidden spot on the item. It’s completely invisible to the naked eye, but lights up under any blacklight. When the return comes back, just shine the light. No matching mark? That’s not your original item. Upload the before/after UV photos in your eBay case and watch your win rate skyrocket. 🚀 Pro tip: Make the code truly unique, your own handwriting style, a random symbol only you make. Something scammers can’t duplicate even if they know the method. Resellers: add this to your process TODAY. It will save you hundreds (or thousands) in the long run. Who’s trying this? Let me know in the comments if you’re adding UV marking to your process. Also, would love to hear your best return scam stories below! Happy selling! Let's grow!

  @sneedweb I don’t understand why you’re still posting about eBay. The stock is down 20% since the offer. He doesn’t have anywhere near the cash or equity to finance this deal. The most cash he could get from the combined cashflow is like $7-8b, max. You’re watching this like it’s a damn tennis match. If eBay agreed today, he couldn’t do it, unless they gave him half the company. It’s a bluff, buddy. Stop talking about it. It’s not happening.

  @Han_Akamatsu RC has taken no money from the company and has only bought more GME WITH HIS OWN MONEY. He will be sitting on the eBay board of directors soon. This slow acquisition of eBay is scaring the out of the hedge funds. DONT BELIEVE THE FUD OR SHILLS. APES HOLD STRONG TOGETHER RCEO! 🚀

  Down 65% in 5 years, proposing a $35b comp plan. eBay up 65% in 5 years and have taken $500m — he is criticizing this. Basically, if GME makes back RC’s last 5 years of losses, and then gains like 100% on top of that, over 10 years, he will make $35b. GME holders will get a 6% annual return over 15 years. It’s okay to be mad at this. @ryancohen

  @BackJogle @Baron_Revilgaz 1) The dilution doesn’t matter to me. Sure, my shares are worth less in the short-term, but I immediately have ownership of more earnings per share because the Ebay deal is earnings accretive. Additionally, I’m not worried about Cohen’s ability to return shareholder capital because I saw him do it with Chewy. 2) The stagnation is transient. The entire gaming industry has been stagnating compared to the rapid growth of the 2010s. This is not an indicator of the long term economic potential, in my view. I play video games and have been studying the market for a long time. I am bullish on video games and the products that derive from them. 3) There are no governance issues that concern me. Cohen has been doing exactly what he said he was going to do and the investment thesis has not changed much since 2020. The only thing different is we have more evidence to say that he can further achieve his goals. The pay package is essentially a performance based stock option. It’s modeled after the way Elon is compensated. I am for this and would run my own company this way. This type of structure incentivizes good, accountable stewardship.
