‘We are screwed’: People near data centers dread heat wave pollution.

Quick timeline...

  • 2022: ChatGPT launches, and presumably, AI companies would have already been forecasting as to their energy needs over the next 5-10 years
  • 2024-2025: AI companies pour money and support into DJT leaving many of us perplexed given Silicon Valley's history of being left-leaning.
  • 2025: DJT takes office, promptly eviscerates EPA and regulators rit large
  • 2026: Data centers run amok

Guess we now know why...

How Hunter Biden Won the Internet. WIRED spent months talking to America’s favorite failson as he plotted his return to public life. Now he’s feeding the trolls—and everyone else.

It's because we all have struggled in our own ways and game recognizes game, we see someone who fought demons and came out the other side and we know what that's like because we fight them too. Addiction is a great equalizer. Doesn't matter who your dad is or how much money you have, it will still get you. Sure, it could be argued that some with more resources can get better treatment or that people who no resources can't get ANY treatment but there is no cure for addiction that money can buy, unlike other diseases.

After falling short in birthright citizenship case, Trump eyes new solution

I agree it never should have been this close but to push back on the doomsayers, here's antoher viewpoint...

Heritage Foundation and their ilk spent billions to put Trump in office over the years, they got to put THREE Supreme Court Justices on the bench and STILL can't get everything they want when they want it.

It turns out Democracy IS for sale but its waaaaaaaaaaaaay more expensive than these morons anticipated and these old fucks just are not going to see a complete rewriting of the Constitution in their lifetimes. Eventually, they'll be dead and next time, it won't even get to the Supreme Court.

Yes i've delved into this a bit since i heard of it, it is as if these people read science fiction and completely missed the points. Or, and more likely, they are evil, know they are evil, and thus like being the villain. These idiotic ideas were always doomed to fail. I know we are still knee-deep in fascism in the US but it is pretty clear Donald Trump's total and complete fascist takeover was always doomed to fail spectacularly. The idea that they could actually carry this out just shows these tech elites are living in such utter isolated delusional bubbles that they actually think they could pull this off.

This is why journalism is so important. We need to know what these people are doing. Keep your eye on your enemy.
