@XFreeze This feels like an intro to The Matrix: Beginings

AI is becoming an energy war xAI built Colossus in 122 days with 100,000+ H100s A cluster that massive draws an insane amount of power, and the local grid was nowhere near ready for it Instead of waiting years for grid upgrades, Elon bypassed the bottleneck using mobile turbines, advanced chillers, Tesla Megapacks, and brute engineering speed This is why Tesla Energy matters way more than people think... it doesn't just store energy, it stabilizes the entire grid to run 100,000+ GPUs uninterrupted

@SeddSezz I'm going to make my own tumble dryer.

🚨Rush to buy tumble dryers after Miliband’s net zero ban Imminent law changes will see traditional tumble dryers phased out for Net Zero. Perhaps Mad Miliband should visit a 14th floor flat where a family of 4 do washing on a regular basis. Would he like to live in a place with several airers of damp washing, which damage children's health? Screw the Net Zero con. Screw this Miliband prick.

@Rainmaker1973 And then he ate its liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti 🤣

A farmer in rural Ireland noticed that one of his cows would cry for hours every time he left for the train station to pick up supplies. Moved by her distress, he started taking her with him. To everyone’s surprise, the cow quickly learned the routine. She would calmly wait on the platform while he was away, then joyfully walk home beside him once his train returned. The heartwarming story has captured the world’s attention, beautifully illustrating that cows are far more than livestock — they’re intelligent, emotional animals capable of forming deep bonds and meaningful routines with the people who care for them.

@QuickBooksUK what on earth are your minimum system requirements now? The 2 4 year old computers in our office run QBO so slowly now that it is unusable. Can only use QBO on a high performance gaming rig! Can't you please cut out the AI crap bloating the system?

@aakashgupta Looks like a decapitation waiting to happen 😱

For $128,000 you can buy a Jetson ONE, take off from your backyard, and never need a pilot's license. Every spec on it is reverse-engineered from a single FAA regulation. Part 103 caps ultralight empty weight at 254 pounds. Jetson built theirs at 189. Part 103 caps level flight at 55 knots. Jetson tops out at 63 mph, exactly that. Part 103 allows one occupant. Jetson built one seat. Stay inside those lines and the FAA does not classify what you are flying as an aircraft. No pilot's license. No medical certificate. No registration. No regulatory oversight of the design. No regulatory oversight of operator competency. That is the entire business model. The $128K buys you exemption from being a pilot. You can see it in the rest of the spec sheet. 13.5 kWh battery for 17 minutes of flight. Open cockpit, helmet required. Daylight only, uncongested areas, away from airports. Every line is a Part 103 rule rendered as hardware. Build it any other way and it stops being an ultralight, which means type certification, which means five years and nine figures before you ship a single unit. Joby has been at it since 2009. Archer since 2018. Combined they have raised over $4 billion building certified eVTOLs. Neither has carried a paying passenger. Jetson started shipping in 2024. Sold out through 2026. Deliveries pushed to 2027. Palmer Luckey took the first production unit. MrBeast flew one down the California coast. The whole point of buying a Jetson is the permission slip that comes with it. Everything else is just hardware.

@JChimirie66677 Simple test - was there a cake? If there was a cake, it was clearly a meeting. Oh wait, I'm getting confused 🤔🙃

The Undeclared Meeting. The Shared Client. The £750 Million Contract There is a moment in this affair when the accumulating details stop looking like coincidence and start looking like something else entirely. Sunday's revelation about the Palantir meeting may be that moment. On February 27 2025, Keir Starmer and Peter Mandelson visited Palantir's headquarters in Washington. Eleven defence personnel attended alongside Britain's defence attaché to the United States. A presentation was given. A tour followed. The Ministry of Defence described it as a meeting. Downing Street says it was not a meeting and therefore required no declaration under the ministerial code. Both positions are on the public record and only one of them can be accurate. The meeting was not logged in Starmer's transparency returns, while other engagements from the same trip were. Breaking the ministerial code is widely regarded as a resignation offence. Set aside the semantic argument about what constitutes a meeting. Focus on what was present in that room. Starmer. Mandelson. Defence officials. And the executives of a technology company that was, at the time, a registered client of Global Counsel, the lobbying firm Mandelson co-founded and in which he held a 24 percent stake while serving as Britain's ambassador to the United States. Global Counsel had been hired by Palantir in 2018 specifically to help procure UK government contracts. Mandelson retained his shareholding when appointed ambassador. The connection between Global Counsel and Palantir was reportedly absent from his vetting. Later in 2025, Palantir won a five year £750 million contract with the Ministry of Defence. Its MoD contract had already tripled in size without due process or competition. Palantir also holds a £330 million NHS contract and a total of 34 contracts with public sector bodies. The question Alex Burghart has put publicly is the right one. Who arranged the meeting, what was discussed, and what did Global Counsel's client stand to gain? A third question deserves equal prominence. Did Starmer know, when he visited Palantir's headquarters with Mandelson at his side, that Palantir was a registered client of the firm in which his ambassador held a substantial financial interest? Downing Street has declined to confirm whether Mandelson was directly involved in arranging the visit. The government says there are robust processes in place to ensure contracts are awarded fairly. Palantir says its latest MoD contract was first discussed before Mandelson became ambassador and signed more than three months after he was sacked. Both statements may be technically accurate. Neither addresses the central problem. A British ambassador with a direct financial interest in a lobbying firm facilitated a meeting between the Prime Minister and that firm's defence contractor client. The meeting was not declared. No minutes were taken. The contractor subsequently won a contract worth three quarters of a billion pounds. Each element of that sequence has an innocent explanation available to it. The combination does not. A man whose financial interests were supposed to be held in a blind trust while he served as the Crown's representative in Washington was present at an undeclared meeting between his Prime Minister and his lobbying firm's most significant defence client. Whether that constitutes a conflict of interest is not a complicated question. Whether it constitutes something worse is now a matter for Scotland Yard, which has been asked to widen its investigation into Mandelson to include the Palantir meeting. Starmer is already facing a privileges committee referral for misleading Parliament. His own Cabinet Office chief has contradicted his account of the vetting process. A senior government source says the wheels have stopped turning. The Palantir meeting was not declared. The contract was awarded. The question of who benefited and who knew is not going away.

@pitchblacksteed ...n Eskimo's codpiece.

I’m bringing back a popular feature on the page today: #MadeUpBlackadder. First up: give me a made up #Blackadder phrase to complete the following sentence… “I’m as cold as a…” As usual, will RT the best efforts.

@SamaHoole I do see your point, but it's just so inconvenient to do this longer term. I can manage a month on carni but all my meals are different to the other 5 in my household, and I can't do pubs, restaurants, birthday cakes etc. I hit it in June and January and find this balances well.

People think ketosis is a weight loss trick. A short metabolic shortcut you endure for a few months to fit into the wedding outfit. This is a bit like describing electricity as a way to slightly improve candle technology. Start here. Ketosis is not an emergency switch. It is the factory default. It is the state your body drops into the moment you stop force-feeding it glucose, which is to say, the state your ancestors spent most of their lives in between hunts, between harvests, through every long winter and every failed foraging trip for two and a half million years. The sugar-burning state is the exception. The ketone-burning state is what you were shipped with. Your brain runs beautifully on ketones. Not adequately. Beautifully. It is the fuel the brain prefers when given the choice, which is why a fasting human does not get progressively stupider as the glucose runs out. The thinking gets sharper. The focus narrows. This is the feature that kept us alive in every lean week for two million years. The sugar-burning brain has a fuel tank that holds about two hours and sends panic signals when it runs low. The shake. The three o'clock fog. The sudden conviction that a biscuit will fix it. You have been living in this cycle your entire adult life and calling it normal. The ketone-burning brain does not do this. The barrel has no bottom. Your body fat is the reserve, measured in weeks, not hours. Miss a meal and nothing happens. Miss lunch and get the best work of your day done in the afternoon you used to write off. Underneath it, something quieter. Ketones shift the balance of GABA and glutamate in the brain, pushing it toward the calming neurotransmitter and away from the excitatory one. The constant low hum of anxiety that you assumed was just what being a modern person feels like begins to recede. The catastrophising voice that narrates your commute gets quieter. Mitochondria, meanwhile, are having the best week of their lives. Cleaner fuel. Less oxidative damage. The engine runs cooler and lasts longer. A mellow, sustained high. An erosion of the low-grade dread most adults accept as the cost of being alive. They came for the weight loss. They stay for the peace. The state you have been told is extreme is the one your body came pre-installed with. Somebody sold you the upgrade, and the upgrade was the problem.

@ClarksonsFarm1 Romeo and Juliet never felt this way, I bet.

@SamaHoole Faggots haven't gone anywhere! My butcher makes the most amazing faggots - got 12 of those bad boys on order for our Sunday dinner this week!

Black pudding is one of the very few offal foods in Britain that survived the 20th-century collapse of traditional cooking. When the British kitchen turned against liver, kidney, heart, tongue, tripe, sweetbreads, faggots, and trotters, black pudding somehow got through. The generation that grew up in the 1970s rejecting their grandmothers' offal made an unspoken exception for the thick black disc on the breakfast plate. It survived by stowing away inside the Full English, carried through the century by the cultural weight of a breakfast format no government campaign has managed to dismantle. The recipe has not changed in six hundred years. Fresh pig's blood, pinhead oatmeal, beef suet, onion, salt, pepper. Stuffed into a natural casing, coiled into a ring, simmered until it sets. Stornoway defends its version under PGI. Bury uses pearl barley and eats it boiled with mustard. Every butcher from Morecambe to Fraserburgh has a recipe his father handed him. A ring from a decent butcher costs about £5. Per 100 grams it delivers substantial heme iron in the form the human gut actually absorbs, substantial B12, complete protein, and the specific lipid profile of real rendered suet. Approximately 20% of British women of childbearing age are anaemic. The NHS response is ferrous sulphate tablets at £4 a month, which cause nausea, constipation, and dark stools, and must be taken for six months to correct a deficiency that two slices of black pudding a week would correct in a fortnight. Faggots went. Brains went. Tripe went. Sweetbreads went. Black pudding stayed. It stayed because the British breakfast refused to let it go. Eat it. Support the butcher who makes it properly. That is what kept it here in the first place.

@SamaHoole I've got a other month of Carni coming up in a few weeks, and I'm already salivating at the thought of heaps of black pudding, bacon and and eggs 🤤
