The rule of capture is an archaic law that all the #txlege water folks have been sounding alarms about for decades now. Are we going to wait until our beloved aquifers, springs, and riverbeds are filled with dust before we do something about it?

This is a hilarious and predictable grievance from a guy forced to clock in after taking shots for engagement on Twitter and podcast. But you know who stared at four walls in D.C. and did their jobs no matter who was president? All the career public servants you slimed and fired.

New from 404 Media: a cop in Texas performed a nationwide search of license plate reading cameras for a woman who got an abortion, according to multiple sets of data we've reviewed. Included cameras where abortion is legal, like Washington and Illinois www.404media.co/a-texas-cop-...

Not to dunk of this specific guy, but if you’re a progressive politics account using AI images, you really are being a hypocrite and behaving counter to your own stated politics.

A researcher calculates that, without increased production, AI will consume up to 82 terrawatt-hours of electricity this year—around the same as the annual electricity consumption of Switzerland.

“In the 2004 election, . . . billionaires gave $13 million in political contributions; 20 years later, the country’s richest families spent more than 200 times that much.” We’re seeing the result when pay-to-play becomes normalized and shameless grifters take power.

The big “why do you hate AI?” Thread got comments and quotes turned off, but here’s the main reason I hate AI: It’s being developed by the worst people on the planet solely to enrich themselves at the expense and labor of the world’s vulnerable populations. Everything else stems from that

There’s nothing wrong w/ programming meant to be on in the background — that was most of TV except the hallowed prime time (8pm-11pm). But I don’t watch movies for background noise. Especially not action movies! If I pick up my phone during your movie — that’s not a goal, that’s a fail! #filmsky

The same people who say Adriana Smith should stay hooked up to machines so a fetus can gestate inside her dead body for 7 months because “it’s a sacrifice a mother would make” can’t fathom a mother crossing the border with her children in hopes of providing a better life for them.

Tesla has made like three big pushes on fixing its insane insurance cost problem by building an in-house insurance option. That effort apparently sports a 92.5% loss ratio. That means Tesla paid 93 cents in claims for every dollar it took in. Industry avg is 70%% www.webpronews.com/teslas-insur...

AFAIK this is the first public statement from Trump that's consistent with how tariffs actually work. Tariffs are charged on the importer of course, but the exporter can "eat" some of the cost by lowering their own price. (They won't.) Happy we're all trapped on this learning journey with Donald.
