It's quite a sign of the times that Ford is pivoting away from EVs and will focus its battery tech on AI data centers instead.
There's a growing list from memory manufacturers to construction companies all pivoting from their primary focus areas to feed at the AI datacenter trough.
from activist Jessica Craven:
"It’s all so much, folks. Yet I believe in my soul that we are on the cusp of something better—something actually born out of all of this pain. So please don’t quit before the miracle.
Practice self-care, take breaks, seek out joy, but don’t entirely give up on our fight. I think we’re closer to winning than we know, and Trump’s vile behavior is only speeding his downfall.
Let’s get to work."
Awful bill coming up for vote this week
Boebert's H.R. 845 forces delisting of gray wolves as endangered, & will ban any judicial challenge
This will lead, as it did during Trump 1.0, to bounties, snaring, night hunting, shooting on sight
Please call your Congressperson and tell them to vote No

Tell your House Rep to Impeach the Quack!
Has your Congressperson co-sponsored the Articles of Impeachment for RFK Jr. that were just introduced in the House?
It is time to apply pressure! We want to show lawmakers that this is not a fringe political stunt, but a legitimate effort backed by the scientific and medical community and the public.

***That Tesla driver is lucky. Apparently could not open the doors because power out. Saved from certain incineration by a passing Virginia State Trooper!
Per story:
"The Tesla’s doors were locked and would not open when Page tried them. He said in his interview that he could hear the driver, Kanu, inside the car.
Henrico County home damaged after being hit by a car
Page proceeded to break open the window to get to Kanu. He then asked Kanu to sit back so he could cut the airbag. Once Page did so, he was able to reach Kanu and pull him out of the car."
Oof, I felt that.

“No president is legally allowed to tear down portions of the White House without any review whatsoever — not President Trump, not President Biden, and not anyone else,” the lawsuit states. “And no president is legally allowed to construct a ballroom on public property without giving the public the opportunity to weigh in.”
Last week, Health Secretary Kennedy’s handpicked advisers on a federal vaccine panel voted against universal hepatitis B shots for newborns,
reversing 35 years of CDCguidance that all newborns receive the vaccine within 24 hours of birth.
The Trump administration also recently altered the CDC’s website to include false claims linking autism and vaccines,
in keeping with Kennedy’s spreading of vaccine misinformation going back decades.
CNN is reporting the FDA is also considering putting a “black box” warning on COVID-19 vaccines.
“This administration is causing a lot of confusion and is using, basically, the CDC to spread misinformation now about vaccines,” says Dr. Havers.
She also discusses her decision to resign from the CDC and the chaos the Trump administration has caused at the agency,
calling RFK Jr.’s changes a “hostile takeover” to advance “anti-science views.”

Incredible finds from recovered material taken from the asteroid Bennu, which is still in space.
Sugars essential for Earth life, a weird gum-like substance, and dust from a supernova.
The first two very strongly strengthen the case for extraterrestrial life:
