When you exaggerate (lie) about data center stuff, it makes me ignore you and think you're credulous. The whole topic is that way for me now. I might have been against them, but their detractors are untrustworthy in the extreme.

Both the Hart-Celler Act of 1965 and the additions to it in the early 90s need to be repealed. So many examples of putting American citizens last in those pieces of legislation.

NEW: In a mandatory anti-racism class, Penn State told 1L law students they must "acknowledge the reality of systemic racism" and "dismantle systems that racialize, subordinate, and oppress." One student withdrew from the law school over the class. We obtained shocking audio.🧵

New appeal to authority just dropped: “According to Hitler”

The blood arguments about who are the inheritors of ancient Greece are stupid. There are no modern nations that are “the same blood” but regardless of this, it would still only be true children of Winckelmann and Nietzsche who are the ancient Greks of now

7,000 false positives per square millimeter. The culprit was the lab gloves. University of Michigan researchers just upended a core assumption in microplastics science. Latex and nitrile gloves, worn by the scientists doing the measuring, shed stearate particles that look chemically identical to polyethylene. Standard infrared and Raman instruments can't tell them apart. The gloves were counting as plastic. Seven glove types tested. All contaminated. The cheapest fix: switch to cleanroom gloves, which dropped false positives to around 100 per mm² vs. 7,000. The "credit card per week" headline (5 grams, WWF/Newcastle 2019) has separate problems. A 2022 re-analysis found severe methodological errors in the original estimate. Actual measured intake is likely 100x lower. None of this means microplastics are harmless. Last month's data on brain accumulation still stands. But the numbers driving the panic may have been measuring the scientists, not the environment. Science catching its own errors is exactly how it's supposed to work.

2009 Chevrolet 2500 HD with over 1,320,000 miles (2,124,334 km) on the clock. The owner listed the truck for $4,000. Description: "1.3m mile 4k obo Has electrical issues causing the truck to go into limp/ruduced power. Was told it needs a engine harness. Truck runs good for its mileage when it does run as its bi polar as of right now. Original engine never opened other than a water pump. Other wise only has has one trans put in around 900,000 miles and a rear end at some point. Has a list of other things it needs but to start driving it will need to fix electrical issues, driveshaft ujoints and rear end pinion yoke. Has numerous leaks as youd imagine and the brakes need to be bled more than they already have been. Interiors clean just needs plastics put back together. Seats out of un known vehicle fabricated to fit factory slides. Tumed and deleted with un known tow tune. Newer tires. Does have some rust but suprisingly clean for the age. Truck was owned by 2 others 1st being border patrol 2nd being the previous owner who used it for hotshot and then me the 3rd. Cosmetically needs a bedside and bumper."
