Not a complaint though, love that song and this riff was different enough that it seemed more homage than anything.

Cool video/song, definitely sounds like the guitar was pulled from Smashing Pumpkins- Disarm.

? OP was claiming that the majority of data centers use closed loop/refrigeration systems and I was pointing out that US data shows the vast majority use evaporative cooling. They posted a few comments pushing that idea which is why I refuted that. I’m not sure what the point you’re trying to make is in regards to those two statements. I’m not disputing the accuracy of what you’re saying, just unsure of where you’re going with it.

Got any info to back that up? Here’s a screenshot from page 39 of the US Data Center Energy Usage Report, which shows the use of closed loop systems (which they call dry cooling) as one of the smallest percentages of cooling types used. Pretty sure you’ve got it completely backwards on the types of cooling used, and I know for a fact the massive Amazon data center out in Oregon uses evaporative, because you can’t drink the water there as a result.

Did they ever release the names of the pilots rescued? Kind of weird that the largest rescue operation in the history of the US- that definitely happened, for reals- never released any images or stories or anything.

Thanks for the extra info, I never paid much attention the last time it cropped up (because fuck all parties involved), so I had thought it was Spotify going after him as opposed to what sounds like them turning a blind eye to the situation. I guess for them, any amount of perceived usage of their product is a win. I wish the either the courts or congress would do something about arbitration clauses in terms of service, they are highly anti-consumer.

Wasn’t he just caught pumping his numbers on Spotify like six months ago? My first thought when I heard this story was that it was that all over again, but apparently this time Spotify is also involved? Bailed on them years ago, constantly reminded that was the right call.

Pretty much any Jets qb would likely fall into that. I’m sure Geno Smith would’ve had a better career as well, although he may have had his own issues at the beginning.

I’m surprised more players haven’t done it, or at least the top ranked qbs. Being locked to a bad team for the first five years of your career can put an end to it before it even begins.

The lower court judges that have been involved in the cases have largely been fine and just, but once you get to the appellate level it has become evident how partisan our court system has become. I should note that the fifth circuit (one of if not the worst in terms of partisanship) has now denied standing in this latest appeal by Jones, so potentially this is all coming to an end.

This entire saga has been so frustrating to watch unfold. Portions of the judiciary seem absolutely hellbent on denying court ordered financial restitution to the families. It’s not like Alex Jones has even put forward sound legal arguments. My tinfoil hat theory on this is the judges putting up roadblocks are doing it not because of alex jones or free speech, but because it has a connection to guns. They don’t want something even tangentially related to guns to get a win.

Fully, and if given the chance has a high likelihood of recidivism (in my opinion).
