Don’t fuss about AI unemployment. The antiproton mines of Saturn will need human overseers.

🇩🇰 Copenhagen's Green-led council is limiting elderly care residents to 80 grams of beef per week for climate reasons. That works out to 11.4 grams a day, which is less meat than most people put in a single taco. A Green party rep explained the logic: the elderly "have been the biggest climate sinners throughout their lives." So the plan is apparently to make them atone for it in their final years, one thimble of mince at a time. Critics, including opposition parties and elderly advocates, say the policy risks undernutrition in a population already vulnerable to it. The council says it's flexible, but the elderly eating climate penance for dinner might disagree. Source: BT, Ekstra Bladet

We don’t need to discuss specifics of “do women like gamers” every month, we already know the answer in generality Women do not like male hobbies They make exceptions if they’re in love or think they have to tolerate the hobby to get married The reverse is also true. Men think astrology, met galas and liberal activism are dumb Re-stating this a billion times is just pointless There is no man who took up gaming because he thought it would get him girls, just like no girl views the met gala to find her husband. You don’t have to disabuse anyone of these ideas - they’re already aware

The American dream is alive and well in Dallas, TX 😍

BREAKING: The new Florida map has passed in the state senate — It now heads to DeSantis' desk to be signed into law!

Chevron used to sell natural gas to chemical plants. Now they're building a 5-gigawatt gas power plant for Microsoft. A BTU burned for AI compute is worth more than a BTU cracked into ethylene. Google signed with Crusoe for 933 megawatts of gas power in North Texas. Meta expanded its Louisiana data center to 7.46 gigawatts with seven new gas plants. Devon Energy and Coterra merged for $58B to lock up gas feeding the AI Corridor. The US chemical industry runs on natural gas. Ethane cracked from gas is the feedstock for polyethylene and hundreds of downstream products. Cheap gas gave American chemical makers a cost advantage over every other country. Now chemical plants and data centers bid for the same BTUs. Gas turbine prices are up 195% since 2019, with six-year delivery backlogs. Natural gas prices are projected to rise 33% by end of 2027. We build chemical plants. Transformer prices are up 80% over the last four years. Our process turbine prices went up 4x last year because data centers got there first. Now they're coming for the gas.

If you reject the Trinity, then you are not a Christian.

It won’t happen. People say all kinds of things in surveys. Watch what they do instead. And what they do is… use AI.
