@MeghansMole @J18149952 Good Lord, he’s had another nose job. That makes at least 3.

@JamesTate121 What claptrap. Jill Biden will eventually be seen as a monstrous figure in 21st century politics. She. Deserves. Nothing.

@basedbidx @jaiyagill I’ve been in the same room with Gates often enough to know he’s nowhere near 6’2” - he’s my height, 5’9”.

Elon Musk says three casting foundries broke America's entire AI power buildout through 2030.

Every AI company on Earth was racing to scale chip production.

Doubling. Then doubling again. Then doubling again.

Each cluster needed power the day chips arrived.

Musk says the math broke at the generator.

"Those who have lived in software land don't realize they're about to have a hard lesson in hardware."

Permits. Interconnects. Power lines.

The boring infrastructure decided who could turn the chips on.

Then Musk drilled down one more level.

The bottleneck wasn't power plants. It wasn't even gas turbines.

It was a single component inside the turbine.

"It's the vanes and blades in the turbines that are the limiting factor."

The whole AI buildout funneled through one part: the turbine blade.

Musk, who had ganged turbines together for Colossus, traced the supply line back further.

"There are only three casting companies in the world that make these, and they're massively backlogged."

Each blade had to survive 1,500-degree gas at 10,000 RPM, and casting one to spec required a process so specialized that only three companies in the world had mastered it.

Three foundries. All backlogged. Sold out through 2030.

After Musk traced the bottleneck, SpaceX and Tesla started casting blades themselves.

Sold out. Backlogged. Internal-only.

Musk, on what this meant for everyone else:

"In order to bring enough power online, I think SpaceX and Tesla will probably have to make the turbine blades, the vanes and blades, internally."

What's the supply line in your industry that's already booked through the next decade?

Years ago on reddit some lady was asking in a thread what a strange 32 byte packet was on her router. I said 32 bytes is like, a couple zeroes and ones, it was probably a ping. Well she didn't like that answer one bit. She said she was in contact with law enforcement and they were doing nothing.

She said her neighbors take shifts watching her, everything she does and she was worried for her daughter. I said listen lady, I'm sorry to break it to you but it sounds like you have schizophrenia. You're having paranoid delusions and you need help.

Forgot about it. Cut to years later. I pick up a phone call at my business. Hello is this Bone from reddit? I'm calling you to let you know I've called the FBI. They know what your doing. She begged me to leave her alone.

Once I replied to her paranoid delusion, I became part of it. She thought I was some ringleader, that I had been singlehandedly destroying her life stalking her.

At this point I was in a panic. This is my business. How the hell did you find this number? Lady, I don't want to be mean to you in an acute mental crisis but you can't be calling me. Seek help. I hang up.

Years later on Twitter. "Hello Bone? Is this the Bone whose been stalking me for years?"

Blocked.

The phone rings again. It's her. She's accusing me of all sorts of things, that I've been stealing her checks and working with the local judges to destroy her family.

I said BITCH if you don't leave me alone I will deploy my full fucking satellite army on you. I will microwave you through your fucking walls. I will get your neighbors, the ones I've been paying all these years, to follow you everywhere. I'll hack every damn wifi in your house. I can see through your walls. We can hear your thoughts. I read every piece of mail you ever got, me and my friends, the government. We've all had enough of your shit and we're about to wrap up this whole operation so if you know what's good for you, you'll never call this number again or contact me anywhere. Ever again.

I could hear the color drain from her face over the phone. Please don't, she says. I just want you to stop. She sounded terrified. I say if you stop calling this number I'll call it off. You decide your fate. I hung up.

She never called again.

@MightyTesla @SawyerMerritt Did you bother to look to see if any location actually has a new CT in inventory? I haven’t seen one listed at any dealer within 200 miles of me in a few months.

@nobarany @grok @typesfast @BernieSanders Good Lord, reading comprehension is an issue for you, isn’t it?

[Lopez Bees @LopezBees]

@BernieSanders This may be the dumbest idea you’ve had, which is sort of remarkable.
