I love this trick from baby boomers. Make things insanely unaffordable and do not raise workers’ wages. Then, complain that young people spend too much money on frivolous activities like eating lunch.
Nearly 50,000 people in the Lake Tahoe area have been told that their utility will stop providing power to them, because it's redirecting that power to data centers.
NV Energy, the Nevada utility that has supplied most of Lake Tahoe’s electricity for decades, says that next year it will stop servicing homes in the area, and instead direct that electricity to the growing demand from Nevada data centers.
Northern Nevada is one of the fastest-growing data-center corridors in the country.

So businesses raised their prices to offset the tariffs, we the consumers paid those higher prices, and now those same businesses can get reimbursed from the government for tariffs we already covered for them by paying higher prices?? And *they* get a refund and we don’t??
baby boomer wants $500k for this sensible starter home, and you'll have to put $150k into it as soon as you buy it because boomer hasn't done anything to update it since they bought it 40 years ago for $50k
After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.
Ticketmaster directors were caught bragging in internal messages about 'robbing [fans] blind'
The messages:
• 'These people are so stupid. I almost feel bad for taking advantage of them'
• 'Robbing them blind, baby. That’s how we do it'
• Charging '$50 to park in the grass' and '$60 for closer grass'
They recently reached a deal with the U.S. government to avoid a breakup over allegations of running an illegal monopoly
