Anybody know where they keep their racks and what security is like?
If I had to wager a guess about the security, I’d be surprised if it isn’t fairly lax.
I’d bet when you spend 2.2 billion dollars building something useless you’d be willing to shell out min wage for a few armed guards. Also there’s no way they’re not doing the facial recognition bullshit Madison Square Garden has been going for
Sounds like nothing a clipboard, tool pack and some work clothes won’t fix. Minimum wage guards generally aren’t paid well enough to be too thorough
“Hey, Mister Security Guard, I am from IT and just gonna upgrade that hardware over there. Do I have permission? Of course, I have permission! Here’s some paper with an unreadable signature. Look, here it says that I have to remove all those very expensive graphics cards and dispose of them. So don’t mind me!”
Yeah people severely overestimate how hard it is to talk yourself into most places
if only there was more crossover of extremely confident people and especially tech literate folks with nothing to lose.
Heh yeah those kinds of people often end up red teaming, which does kinda put a damper on doing “off the books” fuckery because you need to keep your reputation clean
This is just off the strip, right next to Caesar’s Forum, which is where DefCon is usually held. The casinos are not oblivious about cybersecurity anymore, they’ve been exposed to some of the world’s best hackers on an annual basis for almost 3 decades now. No security is perfect, but I seriously doubt it’s lax.
I saw ‘Postcard from Earth’ there. It was fine for a tech demo but nothing more than that really. Left feeling that it was worth experiencing once, but not so amazed I’d rush back to see something else. I guess that’s true enough for a lot of stuff in Vegas.
Congratulations you don’t have any fucking healthcare.
Based on the spec sheet about 1.6% would be powering the GPUs at full power, I’d be willing to double that for their cooling (though that’s a fairly liberal estimate). Where is all the other power going, is it powering the screen itself?
Massive amounts of LEDs
even accounting on how efficient led bulbs are?
Well, you need network tech, peripheral control computers and servers to house the gpus, but definitely yes.
