Wait, you can still mine crypto profitably? Where do they get this energy at a price point that allows it?
As energy demand surges, largely due to crypto mining facilities, data centers and industrial electrification, Texas officials are looking at how to increase supply and shore up the grid.
Data centers are booming in Texas. What does that mean for the grid?

I’ve recently come to realize how much creator-biased social media video content exists toward disparaging AI
What scares me about this: younger generations are getting their “facts” about AI among other things from YouTube / TikTok and using the info to form their opinions

We have this “he barked, she said” issue with our dog so we created a chart on the fridge to track feedings AM/PM.
Pro tip: put the chart high enough that the pet cannot wipe off the dry erase with their paw in an attempt for a second meal

I don’t think Kumail has met a honey badger, and I’ve seen some pretty nasty emus on TikTok

This sucks. My policy is to tip 20% maximum allowed by expense policy and then tip extra cash on short rides.
I drove Uber for like 3 days and after a giving a ride to a smelly guy and having to carry in a woman’s groceries for no tip, I quit and have a soft spot for ride share drivers now.

I Ubered for like 10 hours today and the only tip I got was a crumpled up dollar bill I found on the floor of the backseat that someone must’ve accidentally dropped out of their pocket. Finders keepers bitch.

So I’m teaching myself to be a techno club DJ
No, I won’t play your wedding or birthday party, This is for me… and maybe a thousand people on a dance floor in Ibiza if I get good enough

Between following @mcuban.bsky.social on bluesky and watching him on Shark Tank, part of me wants to invent something just so I can meet the guy. He’s obviously smart and seems like a lot of fun.

Also, every garage door opener has a cord you can pull above the car that allows you you manually lift open the door, in case you didn’t get this message in time
Heard this on TikTok. Thought I’d pass it along. For anyone who needs to hear this in Los Angeles, go put gas in your car. Take your car out of the garage in case the power goes out and you can’t open the garage door.

Thinking about taking up running in the new year, does anyone have a bear in excellent physical shape they can lend?

Just learned the hard way about how asking an innocent question on this platform can quickly escalate into a shitstorm
Also just learned that I can’t control the replies when I reply to someone else’s post
Whoops, sorry

What’s going on with all these close calls and near misses by airplanes?
Could it be that companies like ATP Flight School are cutting corners to put commercial pilots in the air? Or is it an ATC issue?
