The antišŸš«-derailmentšŸšƒ & threadšŸ§µ hijackingšŸ”« threadšŸ§µ ā‰

Gonna let @Amal handle this. I have no authority to reach out, unless I just want to call the store owner a jerk. I was looking for a breadboard kit, and this came up. I swear I come across these things in the most odd ways.

I was tempted to buy it lolā€¦ $20 for a flexNT.
I would not trust the source enough to implant it but would be cool to show people roughly what is inside of me.

I could even get it with:

3-year protection plan from SquareTrade - $2.51
Coverage for product breakdowns and malfunctions
100% Parts and labor, no deductibles
24/7 customer support
5-day service guarantee
Cancel or transfer anytime (full refund in first 30 days)

EDIT:
Screw it, I am curious to see what shows upā€¦ I will post an update on Monday when it is ā€œguaranteedā€ to arrive. That and I know what I am getting into :man_shrugging: better than some random person :sweat_smile:

Itā€™s an old store with a fairly decent history which makes me think itā€™s not some money laundering scam. Itā€™s potentially somone with implants and an eBay store that got cold feet regarding the flex install, it would explain the diagnostic cardā€™s. The only thing that seems doggy is they donā€™t disclose that they are reselling them.

I will somewhat reserve judgement until I get it (if I get it) mainly just curious at this point.

oh manā€¦ odd stuff shows up on ebay sometimesā€¦ and honestly thereā€™s basically nothing that could be done about it, even if they are selling dogshit in a box and calling it a flexNTā€¦ ebay is basically a money laundering scheme in and of itself.

Hey yā€™all gun toting Yankees
@DeviantOllam YouTube channel has an electronic Gun Rack with EM lock for yā€™all.
Not exactly a great lock, but for your considerationā€¦
Here is the videoā€¦ from about 4:20 is the electronic access, but you will want to watch from the start for the security vulnerabilities.

HERE is the shop link

Happy hunting

Update: it arrived. Seems like a legit tag and it reads fine.

Looks like itā€™s got hardly any fluid in it.

Given I have no clue where itā€™s been or whatā€™s happened to it I will not be implanting it obviously. Might get it out later so I can see what they feel like etc.

Iā€™m glad you said that, I saw the video and literally thought :bulb:
ā€œGeez, those corners are a bit rough, iā€™m surprised Amal didnā€™t try to round them a little more, which would probably be pretty easy with a dieā€
