It should be mentioned that what they did was totally unnecessary. Trump wanted to paint the pool blue so it resembles the swimming pools he is used to at his McMansion in Florida, and that was what he paid an associate of his 17 mil to do.

All of this is caused by Trump making a stupid, corrupt and costly decision, which pretty much sums up all of his life. It is not part of how the pool is usual serviced.

He is not a doubleagent or anything like that. He just felt bragging about vital military information on the internet would give him and the Russians more clout.

They are both problems. Besides the political propaganda influencers can be bought to do, they also have no scruples selling fake products, dangerous or illegal things to children, basically anything. They are heinous people being paid be equally heinous people.

I don't understand why any of these factors, none of which seems specific for the UK but instead applicable to the entire EU, would make heat pumps more expensive in the UK compared to the EU.

Most probably. But not by such a high margin. The energy consumption of datacenters is completely insane.

The problem is that these oligarchs are richer than entire countries. Noone is powerful enough to hold them accountable, and noone ever will.

A single dollarstore drone packed with explosives on the other hand...

What about those ultrasonic cleaners for tartar? That is pretty high-tech.

Except for the "constantly having to worry whether one of them will finally succumb to their right wing extremist parties" part.

Most likely not. They are using it for their own datacenters.

Because they are mainly producing components for datacenters, which will be used for cloud computing. Only consumergrade hardware is overpriced.

There is no probably about it. Jensen Huang has talked about nothing else (besides AI) for quite some time now.

Combined with the fact that Trump is a pathological sociopathic narcissist who is literally incapable of caring for anybody but himself.

That is prety irrelevant since consumers aren't the customers for AI datacenter hardware, rich megacorporations with unlimited VC capital are.

Which is a useless metric in today's market, since none of the AI companies have made a single cent yet, in fact they are bleeding billions, but are still receiving billions in investments, most of it from other AI-involved companies.

I don't know how to tell you this, or actually I do: They vibecoded the update.

So the fascist propagandist hates indigenous people? That is quite the relevation.

The meme does the opposite though. It riles you up against your neighbour and not the oligarchs who created the shitty situation in the first place.

Yeah, that is not disassociating, that is enabling.

Also it assumes any type of American governance is capable of learning from the experiences of others.

Who cares? They still use the energy of a large city, all for profiting a handful of billionaire/trillionaire oligarchs.
