@JeffBezos Congratulations, this looks awesome! I love seeing more and more of this stuff from any space agency or company! The future looks bright! Great job to the blue origin team
Tomorrow, we launch.
At sunset tonight, Artemis II waits on the pad, ready to carry astronauts potentially farther than any humans have traveled in more than half a century.
The next era of exploration begins.
BREAKING: Power capacity costs just jumped from $29 per megawatt-day in 2023-2024 to $333.44 for the 2027-2028 delivery year in the Mid-Atlantic grid.
That's an 11x increase in just 3 years.
The cause? AI data centers are demanding electricity faster than the grid can supply it. Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta, and the AI Leaders are building hundreds of new facilities—each one consuming as much power as a small city.
Here's the kicker: While families see their bills skyrocket, Big Tech negotiates special rates for their data centers. You're subsidizing their AI ambitions.
The Rate Payer Protection Pledge of 2026 needs to be more than a pledge. There needs to be an executive order or hard regulation ASAP!
Mr. President @realDonaldTrump, with a stroke of the pen you could force data centers to absorb the electric cost spike so it doesn't impact consumers living in those areas who are getting hit with unexpected electricity price hikes AND push hard on permit approvals for next generation nuclear plants and micro plants that could be built right next to these data centers.
The AI revolution shouldn't come with an AI tax on American families.
Americans (voters) need your action NOW.
@WhirlpoolCorp@whirlpoolusa@WhirlpoolFi@WhirlpoolUK@bbb_us I purchased a new house directly from the builder that came with all Whirlpool appliances. Less than two years later the oven stopped working. Was told by a local appliance company it needs a new motherboard. Common issue I’m told. I then call Whirlpool and they tell me $400 to fix. I guess I’m just complaining because I think it’s ridiculous that not even two years later I’m having to buy a brand new oven. Disappointed that these companies can produce low quality products and just get away with charging people hundreds of dollars to repair their own products. Just produce better products that last longer please is all I’m asking.
@MarcusHouse Serious question Marcus: How we can sign up to be the guy in that forklift looking machine when the deluge activates?? That should be a theme park attraction at Starbase someday. 😂

Pause for a second and really think about this…
How many hardships did they survive?
How many silent battles did they fight?
How many tears did they wipe away?
How many moments of joy did they celebrate?
How many love stories began so that yours could one day exist?
How many dreams for a better future were whispered into the dark?
All of it…
just so you could be here, alive, in this moment
@elonmusk Is the lunar surface safe? I thought there was no atmosphere and therefore no protection from radiation or falling objects. Please help me understand so I can get excited too! I mean it’s still exciting just not like living on the moon exciting.
