Tell us, then, what is an "encounter"?
I've been "encountered" by border patrol a few times going to/from and on my wife's family's ranch down near Presido. Once was on foot while hiking on our land - he looked at our boots and made note and kept on doing his thing. Another was driving to the ranch, and we got stopped by BP because they didn't recognize my car and wanted to ask why we were in the area. Have more BP, get more encounters. That's just how their job works.
It's funny to see GRUhorn or whichever troll sock it is come in and so successfully stoke the false victimhood of """unfair thought policing""". Must be nice to never have to change your playbook

I read this and have more or less thought it true. Curious your thoughts:
glass fiber laid in the ground is not vendor-specific hardware that has a three to five year operational span, which is what the majority of AI capex expendatures have been on.
Not on datacenter capacity, not on power generation or delivery, not on reusable infrastructure. Not like the other bubbles that you and AI apologists keep going back to lol.
60% of overall "AI" CapEx spend has been on hardware that has a lifespan shorter than my wife's last iPhone. That is going to leave a smoking crater in the books.

I thought the big difference in this bubble versus the previous was that it was largely being funded by equities and NOT debt though. Hmmmm, are we being lied to?
Not lied to, but both rather

Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and Oracle have issued around $100 billion of bonds year-to-date, according to a recent Bank of America analysis, more than double the amount the same firms raised in the bond market last year.

Is this water really not recycled over and over? Please tell me it’s not being pumped out of our aquifer
It is. The businesses investors need their money back, so they must pump your aquifers. Don't be a commie, just bend over for the corporate fucking

The bad thing is we are going to get both inflation and less job creation going forward. As that is simply what tariffs do over time. Even worse... it's a problem the FED can't fix from their side of the equation.
Oh boy I've always wanted to live through the AI debt bubble popping while in a period of stagflation

And all these devout "Christian" Republican closeted homosexuals that project their own shame on the rest of society masked as family values. Fuck them. To me there is nothing worse than damaged people projecting and inflicting their pain onto others.
This season of South Park is pretty on point on this subject. Jesus goes full Christian and hits rock bottom

I forget who it was on one of the Sunday shows, but they said yesterday morning that “Officials wouldn’t be speaking about the suspect so definitively if they weren’t sure they had the right guy”.
Oops.The trump administration makes the most progress whenever people make the presumption of regularity. It gives MAGA the constructive cognitive dissonance to reflexively believe any news is just librul bias and TDS and reject their lying eyes.
Then in the meantime they operate like a bunch of slapdick idiots and it all gets handwaved away with a whatabout or facile #bothsides

This is turning into a mess. They get someone in custody as a person of interest, his name gets blasted all over the evening news, and now he’s been released and they are back to square one.
Top men are on it.
Top. Men.
Edit: if anyone is unaware, this dip shit spiked the football yesterday on all the hard work the FBI had done to catch the person they let go. Which is becoming something of a trend for Ka$h's FBI

It's a weird #bothsides to equivocate maga with Bernie Sanders and his movement, but it's fun to see AnimalTobacco take the mask off every now and then

So trump killing the Republican border bill in 2023/4 is bidens fault? The legislation that the republicans had been fighting for until they got it, and then threw away like toddlers?

Powell said that Fed staffers believe that federal data could be overestimating job creation by up to 60,000 jobs a month. Given that figures published so far show that the economy has added about 40,000 jobs a month since April, the real number could be something more like a loss of 20,000 jobs a month, Powell said.
“We think there’s an overstatement in these numbers,” Powell said in a press conference following the central bank’s two-day policy meeting.

We're really going to do it.
We are just over a week out from the Epstein Files, and the Ghislaine Maxwell judge has ordered documents in her case relating to Epstein to be released as well.
Well it's a good thing the trump administration has a good record of faithfully following court orders then

trending up or down, it's still too high for what the fed says they want, that's just not debatable. the other fact is that price increases are cumulative as we all know, after 2+ years of historically high inflation (not runaway inflation mind you) it's going to take several years of sub three percent inflation for consumers to be able to truly adjust. add higher interest rates for credit cards, cars, impact of locked in low or higher new mortgages and other cost increases and it's obvious consumers/families are still feeling the pain.
not to mention the incredibly massive debt bubble that's built up in datacenters. Nvidia has sold around 10-12 Gigawatts of GPU's in the last four quarters - almost all funded with debt from the buyers (and some debt from Nvidia itself to boot). Building a 1GW of datacenter capacity takes about 2 and a half years and ANOTHER $50,000,000,000. So there's got to be mountains of hardware sitting around collecting dust, not plugged in to anything or generating revenue.
That's bad. The loans taken to buy the cards are still incurring interest while the hardware isn't generating revenue, and the purchases are causing a supply crunch and price spike elsewhere that we're currently enjoying. Because there's a massive opportunity cost to those loans given to buy GPUs to sit on shelves - that money isn't doing anything economically useful aside from fluffing NVDA and keeping LGU.

That's incorrect. The video you posted doesn't show that. The "sexualizing your body" comment was a question by the man in response to the worker making offensive comments about his partner's hijab ("witch craft bandana"). It is also irrelevant. But again, you're just making stuff up that you want to be true.
I'd bet a dollar that cinnabitch made some shitty comment about the Somalian woman's hijab, and the man defended her because they wear it for modesty and to avoid sexualizing their bodies. I could 10000% see that leading to the "sexualizing your body" comment towards the racist.
But we keep forgetting, the worker MUST have had a good reason to be such a racist cunt

The density and power consumption of these things is unreal. 600 kilowatts through a single server rack is mind boggling, and then when you throw in closed loop cooling and heat pumps to move all that heat away from the chips... It's insane how much power is being burned on these things that don't actually make a profit
