I feel like I’ve gone off the cliff and am watching the ground get closer real fast.

Newer data centers don’t use as much water as people think. They cool their computers with closed systems, a simple comparison: a car radiator running antifreeze. Some are run 99% on renewable energy.
Cryptocurrency and AI drive their industry. Take a look at those two monsters for blame.

First sentence says it all: "Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed legislation that would have required data centers to report how much water they use." Read the rest of the story though. from @ianjames.bsky.social: www.latimes.com/environment/...

California cracks down on water theft but spares data centers from disclosing how much they use

Gov. Newsom vetoed a bill that would have required data centers to report their projected water use when applying for a business license.

Our schools used to be the best in the world. A high school diploma used to be enough.

California, we need you to get those ballots returned with a YES on Prop 50. A lot is going on. Stay focused. Help others remember to vote too.

Research what the cops can force you to do to unlock your phone at a protest before No Kings. I can't ever remember if they can or can't compel you to unlock with passwords, facial recognition or what. Change it to whatever they can't make you do. Follow me?

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.
