It ain’t over yet, but if Texas A&M volleyball goes through Louisville, Nebraska, Pitt & Kentucky en route to a national title it will be one of the most impressive collegiate championship runs ever in any sport. (Hoping this post works as a jinx, but big respect to the Aggies regardless.)

Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell just voted against extending health insurance tax credits, choosing to let health care premiums skyrocket for thousands of Kentuckians.
They are hellbent on lining billionaires’ pockets over making health care affordable for Kentuckians.

If no one can afford a traditional PC, then we're left with very simple work stations (tablets, phones, etc.) where all the real computing happens in the cloud -- provided by our tech oligarchs.
This is like if Tyson stopped selling consumer chicken. RAM is about to cost as much as a brand new pc. The cost of everything from tablets, to phones, to laptops will skyrocket. All because AI data centers are consuming all the available RAM they can get.
