Does it address water use? I’m aware spacecraft have thermal management systems. But also with the chief complaint of data centers being water use, are these thermal management systems able to dissipate the same energy? You don’t need that much water for earth based data centers without an underlying massive amount of heat to get rid of. I’d wager that heat is much higher than what spacecraft typically have to get rid of. It’s the actual quantity that I’m questioning.

I’d pronounce it clee-shay. Are there really people that rhyme that with niche?

Like quiche.

Isn’t one of the big complaints against data centers is the massive demand on water used for cooling? How are they going to cool these in space which is notoriously hard to cool things down in?

You only make peace with your enemies.

I’ll siphon millions of gains of water myself then. Then I can sell it to the data center at a premium markup! It’s foolproof.

Inevitably in a few weeks/months, “concepts” of a plan.

Google “doing a Ratner”. When those in power are honest the mewling masses come unglued.

At least once more. As always.

Alternative ceasefire

Not to go on a separate tangent, but that’s the entire point of guns. They are supposed to kill. That’s not meant to be some crazy conservative defense of them or opposition to regulating them. Just pointing out something that seems to get lost in conversations.

At least where I’m from the stop lights start switching before the emergency vehicle gets to the intersection. It helps clear the traffic in the direction the emergency vehicle is going. We are a little more car centric in the states so maybe you just don’t run into the issue where that becomes the solution.

Your lights won’t change with an emergency vehicle needing to get through? How do they manage?

This would be my take with the only caveat being if the green light was exceedingly short due to emergency vehicles. Rather than saying that’s 2 stops I’d mention the emergency vehicles and they messed with the timing.

Got that MTG hair. They sure do have a type.

Triple TREASON, no erasies!

Sports betting tends to involve a “spread” so the favored team must win by a certain amount. So if team A is favored to win and the spread is 7, you lose a bet on them if they only win by 6 or less. The spread is chosen to induce a 50/50 split of bets. So if team A is favored and the spread is 7 half the people think they’ll win by more than 7 and the other half thinks they’ll lose or at least not win by 7 or more.

These “prediction markets” pool all the money together and you get a portion of that pool depending on how much you wagered. So if you place $100 and are the only bet on the US bombing Iran on a specific date, and a 5 others bet $10000, you win $10100 (minus some fees) and they win nothing. If those 5 bet $2000 each, they’d only get $2020 each (minus some fees).

Which is what I find crazy. That money comes from advertising which is not endless. How are the advertisers able to show any semblance of ROI when nothing is passing through? Obviously Spotify doesn’t care if the proles voice their discontent. But how are they able to keep the advertisers from getting fed up with no returns?

And the beginnings of our very own holocaust.

And as long as she pleads the fifth, she won’t be compelled to testify against herself. Without that testimony, you can’t evaluate whether it would or could implicate her.
