  • best we can do is return ACA subsidies, and undo GOP harm.

    As minority leader, he’s the favorite to be the house leader should Dems gain majority in November. House leader has a lot of control in preventing proposals from coming to the house.

    I don’t support medicare for all

    Impeaching Trump is only path to getting any legislation not vetoed, and then impeaching any replacements likely needed too. Returning ACA subsidies may be something that is a horse trade for other deficit wreckage, but his answer was not that “medicare for all is not a realistic law we can pass before 2028” It was what I quoted.



  • There is a far greater senility problem, than anyone could ever accuse Biden of having. The problem is greater because he has no handlers around him to filter the stupid.

    Trump also announced a few weeks ago that the US would collect 20% tarrifs/tolls on all shipments in the SoH. He had to walk back the stupid 2 days later. The only path towards the stupidity becoming reality is if Iran or Oman becomes a US territory, although planting a US flag on a small rock near the SoH, and setting a precedent of whoever controls that rock has territorial control over the SoH (pure stupid), would legitimize Iran’s full claim, after they kill all US troops on the rock.

    This would justify immediate impeachment, or to at least force another cognitive test at congress’s request for review by congress.




  • Ontario is facing extreme 30c/kwh electricity rates starting in 2027, due to nuclear refurbishments, but most of it is paid for with taxpayer debt. OPG, generally gets to charge rate payers for network expansion, so ensuring all those costs are paid by datacenter would be minimum.

    It’s unclear if this would raise or lower rates for rate/tax payers. Rates are extreme due to less than full capacity utilization, and the other condition for datacenters would be that they pay the full unsubsizized rate (30c/kwh) and get cut off during scarcity events.

    wth, is the connection to Trump? He will raise tarriffs more if Ford refuses?







  • far right groups in US are far more concerned about muslims and latinos than jews, and when jews are targetted, ADL gets to go on TV to promote Israeli Zionazi rule over the US. Proud boys violently attacked university anti-genocide protesters. Replacement theory agitation, where wrong ethnicities having children is an act of war against Republican/far right perpetual rule is fundamentally a Zionist supremacist purpose. It’s not that children might vote for healthcare, its that they would vote against genocidal supremacist religious fanatics. Manufactured hatred in Europe is against the same Zionazi enemy groups.


  • There is somewhere between 60% and 90% of Americans who think at least one party in government, or Israel rulership that, hates them. In China, that is well under 10%. Both are extreme surveillance states. In China, you can plug a charger for your ebike on the street, and no one will steal it. Its used for genuine property protection instead of CIA Man persecution.

    So the “Chinese were living under” line misses the point of what surveillance is used for. US decline needs desperate regime oppression to perpetuate itself from the threat of the people it hates, but who may/have the democratic power to escape the clockwork orange propaganda feed.


  • That video is very poor, for focusing on a red herring of trying to build a monolith 1gw datacenter in space. There is no plan for such. Instead a mesh of smaller (fits in 1 rocket) datacenters that each have their own solar/radiators auto deployed with the datacluster. Inference does not need fast networking between clusters as models fit in a single cluster easily.

    It’s still completely uneconomic because even GPUs that survive 5 years, are worthless after 5 years. Plan is to trash the datacenters every 5 years including the solar and radiators.



  • Solar on deserts, or even Nebraska farmland, is far more profitable than corn for ethanol and produces far more energy. Even with 2-5 hours of sunlight/day, battery systems, would be 5x cheaper in Nebraska than space for 24/7/365 power production, with perhaps minor throtling in winter. A datacenter in the middle of a solar farm also eliminates noise complaints from cooling systems.


  • large radiators argument is extremely poor. Plan is a mesh of small datacenter modules. The inter nvl72 networking speed is irrelevant for inference/skynet. However, there is no hot semiconductor technology theory that competes with silicon for feature size/speed. There are much better designs than circulating fluid radiators, but all of them, add complexity and pump/nozzle failures. Supercritical compression (heat pump) systems is vastly more prone to failure, including in pipe/connection network. It also means thick, less deployable, radiators.


  • The core reason space datacenters are uneconomical, is the 5 year replacement cycle. Includes trashing the solar and radiators every 5 years even if they could last 30+ because datacenter modules need to auto-deploy their own power and radiators. Ocean deployments would be far better. Wind/solar/batteries doesn’t need frequent change. Just drop in a new module every 5 years, while taking out the old one, and rebuilding its insides.



  • It’s a good point that providing the security systems of nuclear power plants is cheaper and more job creating than space datacenters. You can also get more uppity when international adversaries nuke your datacenter on US soil as opposed to space.

    But more money to a guy that recycles $100m+ into politicians every election cycle, provides decision maker influence to subsidize space skynet. Continuity of nazi/zionazi ideology may require being beyond any temporary loss of control over law.
