Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.
Damn. $75 to fill up an outback - at the PX. Because the Dipshit in Chief is incapable of grasping that you only need one side to start a war, but you need both to end it.
again I ask, on top of everything else in this clip, what the hell is going on with Trump's hair?

David Ho@davidho.bsky.social · 5h agoThe Trump regime admitted in court filings that the cancellation of clean energy grants for Hawaiʻi was because the state voted for Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, rather than the previously stated reasons of advancing energy needs or economic viability.

Can confirm that the most significant impact of AI on the cultural heritage institution I work for—BY FAR—has been the staff time and technical cost required to defend against the constant, uncoordinated, and wildly inefficient harvesting of our open data.
Alex Merz 🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇦@merz.bsky.social · 8h ago#AI #LLM Something I've not seen commented on is the explosion of bot-impeding pages (e.g., via Cloudflare) that now appear before web pages load. The cumulative time waste for human users has got to be in the billions of person-hours. An immense burden imposed on everyone by the AI-bro assholes.

Yes I'm very sorry to hear about the moldy ships. We destroyed an elementary school and a residential area.
The Democrats would, if they knew what they were doing, ensure that all this is hung around the neck of the Republican Party, like a lead albatross, for the next 50 years.
Folks, the US lost to Iran, decisively, and there is no way to un-lose now by any practical means. The IRI is the hegemon of the Gulf Arabs now. The Strait of Hormuz will not be free again in my lifetime. Freedom of navigation is dead as international norm. He ruined the world. Best to make do.
Which was also the obvious worst of all worlds scenario. Kill just enough Iranians to make them mad, leave the regime surviving and enriched and emboldened, and illustrate that you literally can't bomb your way to victory.
Strongly encourage the GOP to run with "just cook at home you stupid poors" as their general election message
huck mason@tylerhuckabee.bsky.social · 14h agofor reasons that only make sense if you're insane, a TPUSA kid complaining about burrito costs on xitter has the GOP's biggest divas going for each other's throats.

Iran only has to hit a couple of pipelines once. Every single plan that doesn't contemplate that is a non-starter.
the current left/liberal position on ai feels a lot like the liberal position on talk radio in the mid-80s to early 90s: ignore it, it will go away, nobody pays attention to that. fast forward to 1994 and newt fucking gingrich is speaker of the house.
Parker Molloy@parkermolloy.com · 9h agoAnd I worry that there are a lot of people on the left who don't care about this problem because they hate AI. But the truth is that as this technology continues to get jammed into everything from customer service to banking to fast food orders, having built-in fair right bias is bad.
I’ve long been concerned that when a country like Russia runs out of conventional military hardware and munitions, they will turn to nukes out of desperation. That concern now applies to us as well. Add in a mad man behind the wheel …

It’s been 166 days since SCOTUS struck down Trump’s illegal tariff taxes & big corporations are getting their refunds. $2.2 BILLION for Apple, $600 MILLION for Amazon, $300 million for Nike. When are American families going to see the $1,700 they're owed? Return the money, NOW.
Corporate America got billions of dollars in tariff refunds. Where’s your cut? | CNN Business
Apple got an estimated $2.2 billion tariff refund last quarter. Amazon got $600 million. Nike got $300 million. But American consumers who paid higher prices as President Donald Trump’s tariffs filter...

El-Sayed, Lawrence and McKinney all won progressive campaigns in Michigan last night by talking about climate and clean energy like it was a kitchen-table issue — because skyrocketing energy bills and endless wildfire smoke matter to people.
