@bjackson215 @aakashgupta @grok Solar as renewable? Only in the daylight, only efficient closer to the equator, only lasts 20-30 years before panel efficiency is 10% of original output. Scams, lies, and money laundering. This is all it is.

Microsoft's Fairwater Wisconsin went live today, ahead of schedule. It's the world's most powerful AI data center. Hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 GPUs, wired to behave as a single computer. The physical build is biblical. 315 acres. 1.2 million square feet across three buildings. 26.5 million pounds of steel. 46.6 miles of foundation piles. 120 miles of underground cable. The storage wing alone runs the length of five football fields. Each rack holds 72 GPUs sharing 14 terabytes of pooled memory, pushing 865,000 tokens per second. One rack generates more text per second than you've written in your entire life. Fairwater holds thousands of racks. The speed of light became a real bottleneck. Cable lengths between racks were introducing latency that slowed training. Microsoft's fix was a two-story layout so racks sit directly above and below each other. We are now architecting around special relativity to train AI. The power numbers are where it gets surreal. Phase 1 pulls 400 megawatts. Full build-out approaches 900 megawatts. Roughly a nuclear reactor, feeding one computer. The grid draw equals 300,000 homes. Fairwater Wisconsin is only the first. Atlanta is already online. Norway and the UK are next. Microsoft is stringing them together over 120,000 miles of dedicated fiber into one AI superfactory with 2+ gigawatts of total capacity. The buildings outlast the chips. GB200 gets swapped for GB300, then Rubin. The cells are modular. Microsoft's real bet is on the real estate, the power hookups, and the fiber. AI progress is now gated by concrete and megawatts.

@meownessxx @thealepalombo This is true. My son lives there with his Japanese wife and their 2 boys. He calls frequently. He doesn't say it, outloud, but feels isolated and complains of not having a car. He grew up in the Rockies and misses "getting lost" in the beauty of nature, everyday. (His words)

Japan has 9 million abandoned houses. By 2038, it's projected to be 1 in 3. Many of these sell for near-zero prices. The government covers 30–75% of renovation costs. Japan also places no restrictions on foreign property ownership, identical rights to citizens. Only a very specific profile would consider this. But there’s a lot of similarity to Italy's €1 home schemes, which were dismissed as gimmicks and are now attracting serious buyers to villages across Sicily and Sardinia. Japan's abandoned house market is a real entry point for people willing to look past the obvious. In Kyushu, you can also find move-in ready houses for $15,000–20,000 in towns with hot springs, fresh seafood, and Shinkansen access. I will be exploring later this year personally, but quality of life in Japan looks to be incredibly high. Is this one of the most overlooked property plays in Asia right now?

@intelFromBrian Wait getting troops killed in a completely botched withdraw in Afghanistan while leaving Americans stranded and 10s of billions in top notch military weapons to terrorist wasn't the biggest embarrassment??? You are fucking retarded.

@FurkanGozukara I think 8 solved conflicts in less than a year would be a pretty good yes record for those “non diplomats”… maybe we need more “non diplomats”?

Absolute bombshell on Sky News. A prominent Middle East expert reveals Trump completely purged the State Department of real diplomats, leaving the entire Iran crisis to real estate developers Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff. The incompetence is staggering.

Donald Trump, at almost 80, is going to die sooner than we think. Bookmark this. When Trump passes, there will be an absolute ORGY of grotesque delight on the Left and even among moderates. They will celebrate in the streets and hold parties. It will be a macabre display, such as we've never seen yet. It will make their celebration of Charlie Kirk's murder look like your great aunt Mildred's church tea party. Mark my words.

I used to WORK for TPUSA TPUSA Faith exists to equip Christians to live out biblical truth, fight cultural degeneracy, and be salt and light. But at AmFest 2024's after-party (hosted by James O'Keefe – the 'Make America Rave Again' blowout), this is what went down: a half-naked woman in a giant wine glass full of water, grinding sexually, splashing the crowd while booze flows everywhere – and she wraps our American flag around her like a cape. Straight-up Flag Code disrespect and total cultural compromise. This is the 'party of the decade' our youth are funneled into? Where's the biblical modesty? The respect for sacred symbols? The consistency on fighting degeneracy? Former insider here – this doesn't align with what TPUSA preaches. Video is real, unedited, from the event I was at. Judge for yourself. Thoughts, @TPUSA

Hegseth spent $93 billion in one month – roughly the cost of extending the ACA tax credits for THREE YEARS.     But instead of lowering American’s healthcare costs, Hegseth used millions of taxpayer dollars on fruit baskets, Herman Miller recliners, ice cream machines, Alaskan King Crabs, and a Steinway & Sons grand piano.   A true grifter in every sense of the word.
Headquarters@HQNewsNow

New Pentagon budget reports show Pete Hegseth spent $93 billion in one month, making it the highest monthly expense since 2008. This budget report included spending $2 million on Alaskan King Crab.

Cruise ships use up to 250 tons of fuel per day. In terms of regular gasoline, that would be about 80,645 gallons; more fuel than you'll use in an entire lifetime of driving cars.

Police stopped a man reported for stealing a beaver, and he was arrested almost immediately. In Canada, officers pulled over a car that had been swerving down the road, and the driver was acting way too relaxed for a traffic stop. The smell in the car made it obvious he’d been smoking, but that wasn’t even the strangest part. Sitting beside him was a beaver. When an officer asked what on earth it was doing in the car, the man scooped it up like a baby and said, “This is my friend, Mr. Bucky.” The officer asked where he got it, and the man shrugged and said he “found it a few minutes ago.” Then he added, completely serious: “I’ve never seen this kind of dog before.” That’s when the officer replied, “Sir… that is not a dog. That’s a beaver.” The man was arrested for driving while intoxicated, and officers said he also faced charges for taking wildlife from its habitat. Mr. Bucky was handed over to wildlife officials to be checked and released safely. Because in Canada, you can make a lot of friends, but you can’t take a beaver home like a puppy.

Hey @Jetblue Your flight attendant chose to begin the flight by specifically thanking President Trump and his cabinet for all that they do. This will be the last time I choose your airline, and I will tell everyone about my experience. And oh yeah, fuck off

SNL just commented on ICE during Weekend Update: Michael Che: "I get that ICE agents are people...allegedly...and they have a job to do, but at some point while you're pepper spraying old ladies or shooting at a nurse, do you ever stop to ask yourself, 'Are we dicks?'"

Today, Canada agreed to import more EVs from China. Because of Trump's stupid policies. Buttigieg warned at the Detroit Auto Show: "The President cannot stop EVs from becoming the leading automotive technology. But he can stop America from being the leader in that technology."

It’s real simple. If the driver wanted to run over the ICE agent, she’d have driven straight. Instead, she had the wheel fully turned and the cop pulled the trigger, from the corner of the hood and actually leaned in to do it. He executed her.
