AI bubble update: 79% of companies say their GPUs sit idle at least half the time, yet most plan new AI platforms

Data centers are simply the wrong way to approach this. The only reason for it is for billionaires to attempt full value capture of the emerging tech. The cost to run them, the cost to society and our environment - simply not worth it. I’m so glad that free open weight models are eating their lunch, and am eagerly looking forward to the AI bust cycle when we can score repurposed versions of these graphics cards for cheap to put in normal PCs again.

Fucking capitalism man, what a mistake.

These past few years have been very illuminating

So funny to see in real time the difference between their phony outrage over Trump’s arguably monstrous policies, VS their genuine fear over a socialist winning a mayoral race.

This is why everyone who claims the way to fix Dems is via primaries is wrong. Dems will lie, cheat, or simply not hold primaries altogether, rather than risk an actual leftist winning the nomination.

Elon Musk calls Social Security ‘the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time’

The 2025 earnings tax cap for social security is $176k.

If those richest among us, like Elon who makes billions per year, had to pay social security tax on a larger percentage of their earnings, or on all of it like those of us making less than $176k annually, the system would easily be solvent in perpetuity. The only reason it’s potentially at risk is because rich assholes have lobbied successfully in order to not pay into it.

'There Are No Kings in America': Biden Blasts Supreme Court, Issues Dire Warning After Immunity Ruling

Ok Biden, time to do something about these fascists. They just gave you everything you need to squash the threat, on a silver platter fit for a king. It’s time to process the new information, understand the powers granted to you, and act - are you up to this task? Please don’t let America down, because you have asserted yourself as the only one who can now do anything about it.
