Your friendly reminder that data centers are a neutral concept. It's when companies try to take shortcuts with cooling + energy that they are a problem. That is not unique to data centers although they bring the issue into clear focus - industrial facilities MUST be required to consume responsibly
A year ago, just 42% of Americans opposed a data center being built in their community. Today, a staggering 75% do. Are data centers really that bad? Letβs take a look.
#ADDlifeprotip #2 - you may think you can leave that painters tape up for a second. After all, it's on the brick, and you're coming right back to paint another coat, right? WRONG. You are completely wrong and might not touch that shit again for a month. Go take it off now. Right now.
I've decided to start a #ADDlifeprotip thread. Tip #1 - I am aware they added the H. I also don't care. That alone probably cost millions of young kids a needed diagnosis because they could sit still.

Today in #shitdoctorssay - "you were right" - the vascular surgeon to me, about my theory that my leg pain since 2022 was caused by an injury during the femoral catheter I got. So to all the doctors who didn't believe me & thought I was exaggerating, including the one I was married to - FUCK YOU πππ
So, I decided to use some of the new smart light lightbulbs for my back patio. I thought that meant that the bulbs were smart, but turns out to get them to all sync, on schedules, & hear music means you need a masters degree in lightbulb applications. Iβm not sure Iβm smart enough for smart bulbs.

In advance of attempts to get us to "rally around the flag" here's your reminder that military service is a pretty strong predictor of domestic terrorism Militancy in the military: military service and support for political violence and right-wing extremism - PMC share.google/PuJZhEFbCeCx...

Got a gratitude today for living long enough that any song I want, I can pull it up, blast it to a speaker and have a private soundtrack. Remember rewinding tapes so you could hit record as soon as it seemed like the DJ on the radio was about to stop talking π music.youtube.com/watch?v=kETk...
Lil something for my NOLA peeps to getcha moving and warm that blood if you can't parade with this cruel cold weather music.youtube.com/watch?v=mF_r...
Y'all listening to Samara Cyn yet? New fave, along with Crystal Crave. Today I've got ~17 calls on the calendar & think a lot about the line from this song talking about "I used to work at Harbor Freight, but now this my office, can you believe they pay me all this money just to talk shit?" π π¦
I'm convinced companies took all their best API/Algo devs and put them on AI/ML and then let go all of the DB/query people, because finding anything specific on the Internet seems to get worse every day. Why the fuck am I, a consumer, researching what keywords Amazon's latest search engine looks for
