Meta says it will spend $600bn on data centers by 2028. That's more double the revenue it's made in its *entire history* as a public company. Hard to see how this happens without Zuck and Co taking on a lot of debt. Also, behold my Photoshop skills:

Not too bad, a bit better than Notts, but deteriorated as the half went on. Need to be more decisive when we get the ball in attacking areas. Brophy poor, might switch him and Kaikai over. #camutd

Increasingly noticing that boomers are the worst exponents of not using headphones in public. Another addition to add to their list of crimes against society.

Second half has been a bit of a non-event so far, unsurprisingly. Eastwood with a fairly comfortable save to tip Bainbridge's shot over, best moment for the visitors so far. #CamUTD

The good news is I think Korey Smith might've found his level. Pinging it around very nicely under zero pressure.

Everything about that Kouassi goal was so satisfying, the control, the turn, the finish. Big Joe-esque. Him and Lavery really sharp, midfield looks much better with Ball in it. All in all, a decent half. 🖤🧡 #camutd

Definitely a win here for us if we can be a bit more decisive in the box. Equally, would not be surprised if we lose it 1-0. Perhaps this is a sign we're watching two mid-table teams, ho hum. #camutd
