In the USA in 1943 they produced a film 'Don't be a Sucker' about fascism.

EV drivers - please help us conserve this weekend with these tips:
⚡If possible, avoid charging EVs during peak demand hours (for example, early morning or evening peaks)
⚡ Schedule your vehicle charge overnight or during off‑peak periods, when demand on the system is lower.
⚡Delay non‑essential charging during active conservation alerts, especially if the vehicle does not need to be charged immediately.
During periods of peak demand, EVs - like electric heaters, dryers, and hot water tanks - draw electricity at certain times, and that’s where conservation can help.

Rebound will be swift: 50 mb rise next 12 hrs. Thus, wind!

STILL QUESTIONING THE AI BOOM?
I know a lot of people are still wondering if all this AI hype is actually turning into real business -- but just look at Azure this quarter.
They added $4.3B in net new cloud revenue -- that’s more than double any other quarter in $MSFT history.
So who wants to invest in a country where the corruption is off the rails, law under daily attack from the executive rather than upheld, wildly unpredictable and you can’t trust numbers mean a god damn thing?

@dwancherry That is robbery! I just found out you can bring an empty water bottle / container through security and fill it up for free rather than paying $4 bucks for a bottle of friggin water…..
