This might belong in some circlejerk sub, but I think it's somewhat clever. Basically, if AI datacenters get shut down, the power that would've been used to generate AI slop could be used for magnificent things. I mean, it's purely clean energy because instead of using gas or oil, you take energy that COULD be used for something useless and put it to better use. Think of all the applications.

• We could power countless electric cars, trains, and bikes.
• We could power countless medical devices like pacemakers and defibrillators.
• We could power countless lights in people's homes.

All this could be accomplished by not building massive datacenters. What's more is that there could be countless gallons of clean drinking water used for surgical cleaning and chemistry that would otherwise serve to cool the amount of datacenter power. Think of all the possibilities!

If only Sam Altman could understand this...!

Carlos Alberto Manzo Rodríguez, who was under police protection, was shot dead in front of dozens of people

A mayor in Mexico’s western state of Michoacán was shot dead in a plaza in front of dozens of people who had gathered for Day of the Dead festivities, authorities have said.

The mayor of the Uruapan municipality, Carlos Alberto Manzo Rodríguez, was gunned down Saturday night in the town’s historic centre. He was rushed to a hospital where he later died, according to state prosecutor Carlos Torres Piña.

A city council member and a bodyguard were also injured in the assault.

A compilation album of material from Yes' first 2 albums. The best and most essential song is "Then." The B-side is much stronger than the A-side. "America" is a good tune tho.

In a wide-ranging interview with NBC News, the California governor slammed the GOP-controlled Congress and the Supreme Court for bowing to Trump.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Thursday said he’s “deeply confident” that California voters this week will approve the state’s Prop 50 ballot measure, which would allow the state to redraw congressional maps on a partisan basis ahead of next year’s midterm elections.

In a wide-ranging interview, the California governor slammed the president’s push for mid-decade redistricting efforts in Republican states across the country, accusing the president of “rigging” next year’s congressional election and warning that Trump “is not screwing around.”

“He’s changing the rules. He’s rigging the game because he knows he’ll lose if all things are equal,” Newsom told Welker. “He did not expect California to fight fire with fire.”

Donald Trump said on Sunday that, for now, he is not considering a deal that would allow Ukraine to obtain long-range Tomahawk missiles for use against Russia.

Trump has been cool to a plan for the United States to sell Tomahawks to NATO nations that would transfer them to Ukraine, saying he does not want to escalate the war.

His latest comments to reporters aboard Air Force One indicate that he remains reluctant.

Firstly I'd like to say, Primus sucks! Next I'd like to say... 1989! Les and the boys were cooking up sounds and grooves we still drool over today. A fantastic live album and not nearly listened to by enough people.

A timeless classic and another overrated underrated album. I'm just glad my parents had the excellent taste to introduce me to this masterpiece. Some of the best music of the '70s. It's surely fallen out of the zeitgeist now. If you haven't heard this album it is a must listen.
