Additionally, current law limits U.S. currency to specific denominations and a $250 bill is not on that list.
At least “we can’t take X off the $Y bill” is probably an argument effective on the stupids who want Trump on something. They’d probably only want FDR off the dime, and Trump would never want to be on something so small.
Both good, but not available at the level natural gas currently is.
Manufacturing batteries at that scale isn’t really any more environmentally friendly, and lithium is in high demand.
For pumped hydro, the issue, at least in America, is that where existing reservoirs can hold that quantity of water, it’s already committed for other uses, mostly irrigation. Building out new reservoirs to store the water for electricity is a huge endeavor in and of itself.
Hopefully the shortcomings of batteries and pumped storage will be addressed in time for us to smoothly dial down natural gas usage before we run out, but capitalism doesn’t typically work that way.
I was thinking the world’s largest data center would be used pretty far and wide, and it should average out. I’m no expert on AI, though. The world’s largest data center should have its own energy storage to smooth out the demand, anyway.
From an engineering perspective, running a steady-load activity like a data center on only natural gas is just stupid. Natural gas is expensive and finite. Its strength is that it’s currently the best form of energy we have for rapidly fluctuating demand.
I’m beginning to think they haven’t actually put much thought into this project. Who’da thunk.
I’m not optimistic the Supreme Court will decide to start being an impartial arbiter of the law and let this stand instead of continuing to be actively pro-corruption.
But that only leaves 5 of 6 sentences for attacking women and minorities! That’s not very DOGE. Hopefully they can work attacks on women and minorities into their fellatio.
If there are any people in my (government) workplace who still support Trump, they keep it to themselves. Everyone I know hates the entire admin. This app will probably only make it worse.
Hopefully this helped at least a few thousand people realize Jeff Bezos is a fuckin liar.
Ken Martin flat out lied about why they weren’t releasing this report, and attacked people who criticized him over it.
He has to go, and not just him.
Unusual
That’s a weird way to spell “obviously illegal”
Hopefully this gets stopped in court, given that the “unfair targeting” allegation really has no leg to stand on since these people were convicted in a court of law and part of accepting a pardon means admitting guilt.
The result was obvious the night before. It’s more likely he was talking out of his ass to try and sound smart.
And it never will!
We’ve seen Republicans wreck the Clinton economy and the Obama economy, both of which were very good. The one-term Biden economy wasn’t sturdy enough yet to withstand their bullshit as well.
He is stupid, but in this case (banned from the country for criticizing China’s treatment of Uigher Muslims) he happens to be right.
If we must have an eyesore, it may as well be a useful one.
We can drop, like, 5 fewer bombs on brown people.
I can’t help but sympathize with people who think “fuck it, gonna focus on my own happiness.” Life is short, and normal people’s ability to have a say has been sabotaged.
I, for one, am in favor of undoing everything he does and deleting Trump from history, unperson style.
It’s probably not the best way for future generations to learn from our mistakes, but it would upset him the most, and that’s what I think matters.
New study confirms what everyone already knows, fails to sway people with the power to make things better, who don’t give a shit about facts or human decency.
