Und nochmal: wenn in einer Gruppe von 7 Leuten in einer Abstimmung 4 dafür stimmen, die anderen 3 in Zukunft als persönliche Sklaven zu halten und sie ihrer Rechte zu berauben, dann nennen wir das nicht demokratisch¹, wir haben da so Sachen wie Minder­heiten­schutz und Menschen­rechte.

Bevor jemand die AfD in Sachsen-Anhalt wählt - guckt auf diese Vetternwirtschaft!
Abgeordnete stellen überkreuz Tochter, Eltern, Partner, Geschwister ein. Für sehr hohe Beträge.

Das System Siegmund: Die Vetternwirtschaft in der AfD Sachsen-Anhalt
Mehrere AfD-Abgeordnete beschäftigen Verwandte und Partner von Parteikollegen als Mitarbeiter. Der Landtag Sachsen-Anhalt prüft den Vorgang nun auch auf möglichen Missbrauch von Steuergeld.

I do so love it when anti-WFH politics intersect with "well, I'm not feeling great, but I'm not horizontal …".

$1200/lb is the lowest cost to put anything in orbit. A GB200/300 NVL72 rack weighs 3000 pounds. It will cost $3.6M to put 72 GPUs in orbit. It will cost $5B to put 100K GPUs in orbit. That does not include any supporting infrastructure.

This is not hard math.

That was the primary source is my Matter grief.

Well, the Death Star was still under construction.

Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.
