Top Story

The pace of AI companies' spending on new datacenters is expected to require annual revenues of $2 trillion by 2030. Even the most optimistic (read: horseshit) estimates put the industry 40% short of that number. (Tom's Hardware)

Is it still a bubble when even the people in the bubble know it's a bubble?

Tech News

Do DRAMless QLC SSDs no longer suck for the average user? (Tom's Hardware)

Apparently, yes. Tested today is the Sandisk WD Blue SN5100, and it works pretty well.
There's apparently a Legend of Zelda Lego set coming next year, but that's not the interesting bit. (NotebookCheck)

No, the interesting thing is that just days ago Lego released a Willy Wonka themed set.

And it's the good version with Gene Wilder.
Disney Plus is getting another price increase. (The Verge)

Cancel now and put the savings toward a Willy Wonka Lego set.

28 The pace of AI companies' spending on new datacenters is expected to require annual revenues of $2 trillion by 2030.

How do AI companies get revenue? From people paying for AI services?

Are those people paying to forge the chains of their own future servitude? When companies get rid of all the people who know how to do without AI, when schools stop teaching the fundamentals of how to do without AI... then AI companies can charge what they wish and people will pay for they will have left themselves no choice.

31 "Disney Plus is getting another price increase."

Good luck continuing to increase the price as more of your customer base is realizing:

a) There's not enough value for what's provided.
b) There's something really wrong (evil, really) at Disney.

Upward price spiral, meet downward subscriber-base spiral. That's going to reach one of those sudden tipping points. "Slowly at first, and then all at once"

As someone who has mocked RFK and anti-vaxers a lot without qualifications I’d say it’s important to understand why epistemic trust in authorities broke down. The average person really isn’t equipped to “do their own research” so it is socially poisonous for elite authorities to play political games with something like pandemic health guidance. “Schools are closed but bars and BLM Protests are fine” was Kafkaesque

52 Spent part of yesterday chatting with an old friend. His mother passed away after a five year battle with dementia. The comfort he took was that the last time he talked to her and saw her, she knew who he was.

67 Morning, all.

63 mild degrees here at Stately Poppins Manor. Rain today, rain tomorrow, rain Friday. Would be good weather for me to write, if I had the energy. Ron Howard's Apollo 13 is back on the big screen today, so I am going to see it after work (I don't know where it might be playing where you live, but you might want to check).

I started reading Shakespeare's Local, a 15-odd year old book about the George, one of the oldest pubs in London. I couldn't get past the first chapter - not because the book was bad or politically perverse, but because the author has such a love for London and I know that that particular city (which I have been to and love) is never coming back.

I'll never set foot in Fortnum and Mason or walk along Savile Row or have tea at the Savoy or visit the Globe ever again and that pains me immensely.

71 As someone who has mocked RFK and anti-vaxers a lot...

I don't believe that RFK was an anti-vaxxer. I don't believe that he ever said that vaxxes were bad, or that they should be stopped. He suggested that they might have a link to autism, particularly the rate at which they were administered - which, admittedly, is as crazy as suggesting that acetaminophen use during pregnancy could lead to autism - and he suggested that, perhaps, we shouldn't be vaxxing newborns for sexually transmitted diseases if there was no danger of contracting it from the mother.

/yes, the comment about acetaminophen was snark since so many people have immediately discounted it despite the actual source of the information.

I don’t mind it one bit.

Whether he’s right or wrong about his theories doesn’t matter, Big Pharma, Big Healthcare, and Big Ag need to be grilled on why chronic disease in the U.S. gets worse as technology supposedly gets better.

84 This article from the Daily Mail makes it seem like a hostage situation over at Kimmel’s:

https://archive.ph/0SRh8

Some choice quotes-

'No one knows what Jimmy is going to say, but there are rumblings that if he apologizes, there will be a walkout.
‘If he grovels or falls on his sword, that’s actually a betrayal to all of us. It will feel like he doesn’t have our back.

'I understand that he’s got to protect his career, but he can’t do it at the expense of truth and what we all agreed on.
‘There’s also a feeling that we were in it together when we discussed what to say, when things were written for him, when we bounced things off each other.
'And now the decision is being made over our heads, with none of our input. We don’t know what’s going to happen, and that feels s****.’
‘Look, I understand if he had said that Charlie Kirk deserved to get shot in the neck, but he didn’t.
'He didn’t say any of that at all. And we all talked about how to be respectful while still saying what needed to be said.
'It’s annoying because we tried so hard. So yeah, if Jimmy grovels, he undoes all that and we are all going to be p***ed.’

It’s a cult within a cult wrapped up in a cult.

85 Once Upon A Time in the West. That's what I saw her in. It's probably the only movie I saw her in. She was an absolute beauty! Held her own with some pretty topflight actors in that movie. Bronson, Fonda, & Robards is a pretty solid lineup in a western! She was gorgeous. RIP.

Check her out in "The Professionals" with Burt Lancaster, Lee Marvin, Robert Ryan and Jack Palance. Great western.

90 "My favourite "Was (Not Was)" song is "Hello Dad, I'm in Jail" which was featured in the movie "Pump up the Volume""

I like it here!

Macrium Reflect maybe?

Don’t think they thought that through. Cutting their football advertiser’s audience wouldn’t be a smart move.

Maybe. I have not tried it. There is a 30 day evaluation that I might give a shot. It bugs me that C!onezilla does not work though.

97 Remember when Jimmy Kimmel said he would be shutting down his show on Jan 21 because Trump was re-elected? Remember when Aaron Rogers accused Jimmy Kimmel of being on the Epstein list? Remember how that Rogers' stuff all blew over when Kimmel said he would sue Aaron - but then the late Virginia Guifre in her Epstein suit identified Jimmy Kimmel as somebody she had sex with at Epstein's house? Oh yeah, so Jimmy Kimmel really is a pedo and a liar.

99 Sidebar question: "Where are all the Madison Cornbreads of yesteryear?"

If that is, where are those specific Junior Psyop Agents now -- I suspect they mostly calmed their tits, charmed a guy to the altar, pumped out a couple of kids, and led quiet, normal lives. It would be unfair for them to get away with it, and that's true-to-life; just desserts can happen, but not anywhere as reliably as in fiction.

If that is, are they not making them like they used to -- I think not. The memetic stew that produced such young women has mutated into such a toxic form, I picture it like a drug or alcohol addiction progressing past the "sweet spot" of immersed yet technically functional. Now, the proto forms of that type of character are, if not fully resistant to Social Justice cult thought control, then rendered gibbering goblins by today's turbo version.

In this mental model, the pretty and put-together NPCs of yore were the product of a transient phase of the mind virus, and we should not expect to see their like in the current mode. Perhaps that "sweet spot" will happen again someday, but I think it would be after a full cycle of Hard Times -> Strong Men -> Good Times -> Soft Men.

Aaron Rogers is sort of weird but still a good QB. That said, Imma taking the Vikings at the Steelers.
