I'm fascinated by this image. Meta's planned 5GW Hyperion Data Center overlaid on Manhattan to demonstrate its size.
If you ever needed an image of how digital colonialism looks at home, here it is. And, remember, Zuckerberg published it himself. Btw, 5 GW requires 5 dedicated nuclear power plants (probably more if you factor in redundancy).

They want us to be like outdoor cats.
Such a good analogy.
Outdoor cats have less chronic disease and obesity than indoor cats. So is there "something" about "nature" that's good for cats?
Outdoor cats only live for 3 years, indoor cats? live for 10 years or more. **Outdoor cats don't live long enough to get chronic disease.**
And there is even that kernel of truth in the grift. Indoor cats don't get enough exercise. TRUE! Processed cat food isn't as nutritious.

Fediverse! I need some help!
I have a fellowship to go to Aotearoa New Zealand for a few weeks, and also an offer of an additional fellowship to give lectures around NZ. This is INCREDIBLY EXCITING!!
...but I have a lot of animals! And it's going to be during Saskatchewan winter! The potential farm sitters I've reached out to locally have all fallen through, so I need help to find someone.
Not sure if I should put out an actual farm sitting job ad here? Or if there are better places to try?
