The only thing that makes sense today is that Putin is pulling all of Trump's strings.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?
That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

Please take note that so long as men define their masculinity relative to other men,they will fail at attracting women.
“Alpha” men are the head of a pack of MEN. That obsession with the male gaze does not appeal to many (if not most) women.
Maybe being alpha was important two thousand years ago

"Investment grade" isn't a holy writ. One cause of the subprime mortgage crisis was the improper rating of >$3 trillion in bad credit / undocumented income mortgages as "AAA," the highest level.
And let's not be naïve: the ratings agencies don't audit borrowers, they use what they're given.

It’s important to note from a military perspective that if a subordinate is about to give an unlawful order & his senior knows about it, it’s also a requirement for the senior official to stop him from executing it. And then counsel/discipline him.
So there’s that, too.

And former KGB Agent Vladimir Putin now has the United States as its proud ally, since White America has re-elected Donald Trump who, during his campaign against the hyper-qualified, literal ✨sitting✨ Vice President, promised to let Putin do whatever to whomever.
If Europe wants to fight a war, we are ready now, says Putin

When we limit abortion access to “exceptions,” we send the message that women must first suffer before they are trusted with choice. That is not justice. That is control.
This #CupOfJoe goes out to every woman, every choice, every time.

But but but but you don't understand. *Biden is old*. And Kamala Harris is a black woman.
Okay so Trump's a senile, senescent pedophile. But he gave trillions in tax breaks to the people who own the news and didn't interfere with their forming a monopoly.
So nobody has to know.

This is pretty interesting - Ecosia have now launched "the world's greenest AI".
I think it's lacking *a lot*, namely:
- Disclosure of energy consumption (absolute, but not even per-query??)
- Disclosure of emissions
- Still obviously massive problems w/ accuracy

Trump crypto partner Alt5 Sigma told the SEC its auditor quit in Nov.
We called the auditor.
He resigned in August.
That's the second SEC filing with an apparent conflict that Alt5 Sigma has made in recent weeks.
