Bernie Sanders has observed that these data centers aren’t at work trying to find ways to provide jobs for the working class, they are creating technology to replace paying people and increase the bottom line of the billionaire class. Whether you like Bernie or hate him, this observation on data centers resonates across party lines. And then there's the water issue.

Hmm. think that's been done already, even before amazon prime. To trap your protons, it helps to keep the back door closed ;)

has been delayed? But once available, the RFK Jr-lead test on that model and its user population? Now that's a study!

for many many people who fly. Even if you refuse to set foot on a Spirit or Ryanair plane, their cheapskate fares promote competition with less awful carriers who fly the same or similar routes. So I would love to see Spirit and Ryanair keep flying.

To make money first you gotta pay the technician(s) who keep all the moving parts flying all over properly.

Well, it may be the Devil or it may be the Lord or it may be AI. But you're gonna have to serve somebody

the NSF and DOE funding to operate and maintain the Ruben Vera Observatory and to organize and archive the data are not zeroed out. In order to support tax cuts for billionaires and because some observatory staff are required to be "woke" all night of course.

sure ain't cheap. Yet another example of this. And many of these plants are in MAGA states.

a one-time payment of $86.47, and no due-processing fee, gets you enhanced coverage in El Salvador.

The follow-up mission, with more antennas, better shielding, and better noise-rejection is in preparation for launch in Dec 2025 or Jan 2026. https://pueo.space/ That is if the NASA Scientific Balloon Program https://www.csbf.nasa.gov/ survives the "Move fast and break things" budget chainsaw taken to the NASA budget. To loose this program and the PUEO mission and other upcoming balloon missions would be incredibly short-sighted.

That would be an NREL report with a nice explanation and analysis of grid inertia in the US. https://docs.nrel.gov/docs/fy2... A key take-away from "Inertia and the Power Grid: A Guide Without the Spin" Using power electronics, inverter-based resources including wind, solar, and storage can quickly detect frequency deviations and respond to system imbalances. Tapping into electronic-based resources for this “fast frequency response” can enable response rates many times faster than traditional mechanical response from conventional generators, thereby reducing the need for inertia. The report also has some observations on the Texas ERCOT grid. Sure would be nice to see a follow-up as this report dates from 2020, But it's not the sort thing the trusk thought police are likely to allow.
