Somewhere at the French-Swiss border.
🛃 French border agent:
Excuse me sir, what is in the truck? Do you have anything to declare?
🚚 Truck driver: Just a cloud of 92 #antiprotons in an innovative portable cryogenic Penning trap.

It is difficult to describe how bonkers this week’s heat wave is in the southwestern United States.

The man the AFR experts thinks is “Australia’s newest datacenter titan” has never built a datacenter.
He lost $24 million in 2024. He has an MOU from Microsoft that says they’ll give him $2.5 billion if he turns up a datacenter in Laughton, UK, by the end of this year. That’s on the site he doesn’t actually own, which is currently running as a scaffolding yard (The Guardian broke that story)
On the strength of his $24 million loss and that MOU, Macquarie Bank has loaned him $105 million.
Last year Kier Starmer trumpeted his company as “British sovereign AI.” He has no AI, no British employees, and was based in Australia at the time. He’s built precisely nothing whatsoever since Starmer’s endorsement.
AFR wrote this article AFTER ALL THAT INFORMATION WAS MADE PUBLIC. “Datacenter titan,” no datacenters, losing money hand over fist, originating from Bitcoin grift.

The banality of evil...
Interview with Anna Thalhammer, who exposed Austrian journalists suspected of working for Moscow, why the country treats Russian espionage so casually, and how its history has shaped this attitude.
Die Ostermärsche (auch meiner Gewerkschaft!), die unreflektiert "Frieden" & einen Stopp von Waffenlieferungen an die Ukraine fordern & sich nicht ausreichend vom Aggressor Russland distanzieren, beschämen mich jedes Jahr aufs Neue.
