The fact that billionaires still want more money should be studied by the same people who study serial killers.

Ok, I admit it, Boomers really DID have it better than later generations, even GenX. All we had was Clackers, Lawn Darts, and complete lack of supervision to try and permanently damage ourselves. Kids in the 50's had friggin Atomic Energy Labs!

Wanted a quick lunch; stopped at a Taco Bell.

All I wanted was two hard shell tacos and a small Pepsi.

There are kiosks but no counter workers. I used a kiosk. It was like using a 300 baud dial-up modem with Netscape. Sloooooooow. Too many pages. Too many items. No, I don’t want to join a rewards club. No, I don’t want to add a chalupa. The order process took five minutes. And the kitchen worker forgot one item.

I’m sticking with taco trucks. They are faster, fresher, and the food tastes better.

Never again, @tacobell

Oh, darn...

@wingod Three cheers for yankee ingenuity!

@scitechgirl has it been manufactured and tested ? if not its still an idea

[John Paterson @johnpat007]

@wtfcetialpha5 I recognize him.. and have an urge to spray him with a Mac 10.. but I don't know why ?

[John Paterson @johnpat007]

@wtfcetialpha5 @GusLangenschmid outstanding analysis ! it didn't have shoes either!

[John Paterson @johnpat007]

@ProudElephant yes.. fraud takes time

Karen Bass, the destroyer of Los Angeles, has managed to unite all off my friends regardless of politics. We are all in agreement that she is the absolute worst. Yet half the city voted for more of her “needles, crime, and human shit”policies. Evidently there’s no fixing stupid.

UNDERWATER DATA CENTERS

China has achieved what it calls the world’s first fully operational, commercially running underwater AI data center off the coast of Shanghai.

The facility, developed in partnership with HiCloud Technology (also referred to as Hailanyun), features nearly 2,000 servers housed in sealed, submarine-grade capsules submerged in the ocean.

By leveraging the natural cooling power of seawater, it dramatically reduces energy demands cutting cooling costs by up to 90% compared to traditional land-based data centers. The entire system is powered by nearby offshore wind farms, making it highly renewable and energy-efficient.

The $226 million project was officially launched in June 2025, with construction completed later that year and full commercial operations beginning in recent weeks. It supports high-performance AI workloads, including GPU clusters from partners like China Telecom.

For context, the U.S. explored similar concepts through Microsoft’s Project Natick but quietly shelved the initiative in 2024 after successful trials, opting not to pursue large-scale commercial deployment.

This development highlights China’s aggressive push to address the massive energy and cooling challenges of scaling AI infrastructure.

This is an interesting engineering achievement in the AI infrastructure race, though scaling, maintenance, and long-term reliability in a marine environment will be key factors to watch.

@BrianRoemmele perfect, now we can heat the ocean directly to speed up climate change

🔌 IRAN FACES POWER CRISIS

Iran is expected to face major power outages starting in mid-June, with a 12,000 MW electricity shortfall forcing daily blackouts of at least two hours for households. Officials are prioritizing industry as aging infrastructure, rising demand, and supply challenges strain the grid.

Can I just buy a copy of Word? I shouldn't have to pay for it every year. The subscription model has ruined everything.
