Yeah, luckily in Australia, we are getting Chinese stuff without massive tariffs.

I see BYD cars everywhere.

These Chinese are catching up very quickly on GPUs, RAM, etc.

This would be a massive own goal for the existing incumbents.

Van Helsuck is what I remembered people calling it.

I'm assuming there must be downtime for maintenance and quality checks.

Oil prices are already plunging.

Supply is about 5 million barrels per day more than demand.

The last bailout was required because the banking system was the artery of the economy.

As irresponsible as they were, they needed to be functional to allow the economy to function.

It is hard to see how the government can afford to bailout the "AI" sector.

It is also not critical to the economy. In fact, you could argue the bubble is costing the economy in terms of opportunity costs, increased energy prices, consumer prices for laptops, hard drives, etc.

My view is while they may want to bailout their tech bros friends, I'm not sure it is possible.

You reckon they will just promise Trump to buy lots of oil but then do nothing like their soybean promise?

People have been playing down Nazi dog whistling so long that Nazis have become emboldened to do Nazi stuff.

Private Equity is finding it increasingly difficult to offload the companies they have taken over.

With some luck, this dickhead will go broke.

The real question is how do you enshittify a product that is already shit?

 

"...Combined with wind and hydropower, solar met as much as 76.6 per cent of demand on the day.

Almost half of all supply over the 24 hours came from renewable sources.

It's a far cry from just seven years ago, when renewable energy at no stage provided more than 26 per cent of supply during a separate heatwave."

 

Rule of law is obviously sympathetic to Hamas.

 

The US was a breadbasket of the world. Now, we import most of our food- including breadbasket staples like beef, potatoes, peanut butter, and flour. When egg prices spiked earlier this year, we couldn't farm our way out of it- even though we have one of the highest square miles of high-quality farmland of any country in the world. We had to import eggs.

And it didn't start with tariffs. The US has been growing less and less food for the last 15+ years. So: What's going on?

 

Mediaite reported that Netanyahu’s office issued a statement denying that the employee in question had even been arrested.

The police say otherwise.
