The doors/the walls are closing. One way? This may be what the White Chrsto-fascists want, but I bet a majority of real Republicans are regretting having taken their cues from tRump during Biden's term and had actually passed bipartisan immigration reform. Now we're devolving into a police state.

Q: Aquarius was the part that was sung at the end of the 12 December 2025 episode, The Gap. What artist or performing group is singing it? It sounds like Astrud Gilberto on lead vocals, but her cover of the song is not in her catalog, that i can find.

Datacenters in space are a terrible, horrible, no good idea.
There is a rush for AI companies to team up with space launch/satellite companies to build datacenters in space. TL;DR: It's not going to work.

Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.
