NEW: I've been shocked by some of the numbers I've been seeing on behind-the-meter power plants for data centers, so I did a little math.
less than a dozen gas plants being built to power data centers for big tech companies could emit a maximum of nearly 130 million tons of CO2e each year (!)
In the horrific Saville episodes of BtB (which everyone should listen to), it's funny that @iwriteok.bsky.social picks up on the 20th century British use of the word "birds" to describe women when the American equivalent is "chicks" which means.. baby birds #behindthebastards
Utzp is like all the Kusturica movies cut into each other, slowly getting louder the whole time
hey did you write this essay all by yourself?
no i used fake smarts to write it for me

My wife also says that, in the medium to long term however, what the Cuban people need (siege or no siege) is a government that functions effectively and for their needs, instead of the incompetents who have comprehensively mismanaged every facet of life (except maybe entertainment) for decades.
Hi Owen, just watched this with my wife (Cuban, not on bsky) - she's very grateful that you made this doc and that you're trying to shine a light on what regular Cubans are living through. Will share, in the hope that it makes some immediate mitigation of the acute fuel crisis more likely.
Just realised I've been waiting almost 20 years for Jack Black to remake that Toni Braxton song as "Unfuck My Ass"

yep that was the main thing that stood out for me too
the saying is "all mouth and trousers" but it doesn't surprise me that she would mangle it
this reminds me of a cafe in kings cross back in the day; in the window it said SALADSPIES which i always read as salad spies
Rafe Spall was also a pretty good baddie in The Shadow Line imo - but I do have a massive soft spot for that series.

My job this morning is to hide chocolate eggs around the garden, because it's what my parents did when I was a kid, and they would've loved seeing their grandkids having the same experience. Schéin Ouschteren. #eastersky #photosky
i you enjoyed this post, i recommend @iss-piss-tracker.bsky.social for more space toilet shenanigans
How did you even get there? My wife is Cuban and we're trying to get her stepdad out and over to Europe later in the year but the airlines are all stopping /have stopped flights...
Bash you forgot about when Helen Daniels died in Neighbours in 1997. We all watched that in the sixth form common room, there were many tears
never forget that covfefe
"Beavis and Butthead Do Iran"
It is #bandcampfriday again so, you know, snatcherofcastles.bandcamp.com is stuff what I made, have a listen, what's the worst that can happen? #musiciansky
@iandunt.bsky.social again says what I feel but in well-explained words rather than facial expressions
they called it OPERATION EPIC FURY. they are all 11 year olds who can't figure out why no one wants to sit next to them at lunch
the war againsT error
never thought the time would come where any time a senior US govt figure says anything at all through any medium, i yearn for the days of "now watch this drive"
Same. No new signatures for 3 hours...
@bbcrosatkins.bsky.social channelling Peter O'Hanrahahanrahan there by refusing to move his head and shoulders in any way. Just adds to the effect. Razor-sharp stuff.
37 minutes is extremely optimistic
