Falcon Northwest

Thanks @Trevornoah ! You're easily our favorite Daily Show host! 😃

I worked at Epic Games for two years. This is real, and the strategy behind it is smarter than most people realize. Tim Sweeney has spent nearly two decades buying North Carolina forest land. 50,000+ acres across 15 counties. He’s now one of the largest private landowners in the state. The purchases started in 2008, right after the real estate collapse wiped out developers who had been planning golf resorts and luxury communities on biodiverse wilderness. Sweeney paid $15 million for Box Creek Wilderness, a 7,000-acre stretch in the Blue Ridge foothills containing 130+ rare and threatened species. Developers had owned 5,000 of those acres before the crash. He bought them for conservation prices when nobody else was bidding. He runs the acquisitions through an LLC called “130 of Chatham.” He buys the land, holds it for years, then either donates it to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, sells it at a discount to state parks, or hands it to land trusts. In 2021, he donated 7,500 acres in the Roan Highlands to the Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy. Largest private land donation in North Carolina history. The part people miss: he told the News & Observer that since 2021, land got too expensive to keep buying. So he shifted focus to converting his existing 50,000 acres into permanent conservation status. He’s locking the land into legal structures that make development impossible regardless of who owns it in the future. A billionaire worth roughly $6 billion is spending tens of millions acquiring wilderness specifically during economic downturns, then giving it away or placing it under permanent legal protection. The land will outlast him, Epic Games, and Fortnite. That’s the part that separates Sweeney from billionaires who write checks to get their name on a building. The building depreciates. The forest compounds.

Creating AI locally on your own PC is the future. It allows small indie creators to conjure incredible imagery they could never afford to outsource. The SavageGeese YouTube car channel created "GooseZilla" with their Falcon @AMDRyzen Threadripper PC using @topazlabs tools.🤯

That's not a Master Chief version. THIS is a Master Chief version. 🙃

The Master Chief green version was from @FalconNW the Conspiracy Blue was from @Alienware

The modern laptop designers mind cannot comprehend this much I/O

@FalconNW @AMDRyzen Not linking is insane.

Our most popular Tiki Micro-Tower configs are pre-built and ready to ship! These 4" wide powerhouses don't take up much desk space, but they pack @AMDRyzen 9850X3D CPUs & NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070/5080s! Phenomenal cosmic power. Itty-bitty living space.

@anshelsag @vladsavov We have a lot of small business clients like video editors and indie game devs that require a LOT of memory and storage though, and this really impacts them.☹️

@vladsavov @FalconNW Lucky for Falcon NW their systems are luxury enough that their customers aren't as affected by price increases compared to literally everyone else

Free to read for a week: our analysis of the memory calamity that's befallen the world as AI eats all the chips. I cooked up some fun charts for this one. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

📷Friday's Foto: Gold circuits DRX laptop Our custom-printed, glossy circuits & Falcon logo design has been popular in many different colors for years, so it's a bit surprising no one had asked us for gold before. A sunset-orange fade at the edges made this one a standout!
