If I believed my kids when they come crying about every thing likes it's the end of the world and it's an emergency, then I'd long have joined them in their subjective immaturity. Not everything is a god damn emergency! Grow up, use the systems and processes in place and build a strong support network of professionals who you trust to do a good job. You don't need an emergency every time some issue comes up that needs careful thought and consideration and firm reasonable action. Trump is a kid with no idea how to effectively wield the machinery of government.

Don't forget the actually lower cost of the energy it does deliver to the grid. Not installing this extra energy at a time when energy demands are way up means ongoing higher prices to be paid year on year. It's much worse than just winding back the clock with a refund.

My son has ADHD/autism and is obsessive with gaming at every single opportunity for as long as possible and will do anything he can to get game time.

We already see what building these very large data centres does to communities in the vicinity, the power costs go up and so does the water consumption, those costs are socialised with the surrounding community, whilst the profits from the data centres are privatised. People can kick and scream all they want about the government, ultimately this is a federal request and the various state governments have to either adopt or reject it as it's state and local governments that decide. Still, this sets a clear signal for would be investors that they don't get to just plonk a giant energy consumer on the grid and watch the wholesale national energy market rise without offsetting that consumption with new energy to maintain reasonable pricing. This is actually good government and good for investors wanting to build data centres that lays the groundwork for a sustainable future that works for the communities and surrounding businesses that host these data centres as neighbours.

The heading misleads, it's not the first room temperature quantum material, it the first room temperature one that is "capable of distinguishing and transporting different quantum states of light". Which is unique. Who'd have guessed that a heading could be misleading. ðYââ(TM)ï

We have DST, but only some states. But the sun coming up at 4:45am in summer sucks up near the tropics and makes no sense. I've often thought we should simply introduce it year round in all states.

Clearly they can work out how much to bill you, obviously they can list those items they've added together that feed into the total they ask you to pay. See, not so hard. Otherwise you should only be required to pay the advises price, not a cent more.

Honestly, what idiots to fall for the scam. I know my data is in there somewhere, but I have no doubt by paying the ransom, they've only perpetuated the business model further. There is no honour amongst thieves.

This has always been the case. The AK47 was famously designed to be built in a barn. Newer technology makes this easier. Just like it makes a lot of other things easier. But it is not required. https://www.motherjones.com/po...

I decided that when they first went required cloud. I don't buy stuff I don't fully own.

They will not stop at guns. They could require all prints to be run against the US patent office database...

So much this. States are already pushing requirements to not print guns. They will not stop at guns... "Our cloud AI has detected you are trying to print something that may infringe on patent number..."

We're in the middle of emergency patching 6000 Linux hosts to address copy fail, now we have another set of CVEs to urgently patch? Oh boy

Picked and consumed in my late teens. Pretty nice feeling! Like overwhelming joy and giddiness that wants to overflow. Am quite pleased to read these studies, as it would be a bit of a worry if the affects were long term negative. ðYzðY--
