From what I see on social media, they had largely not written this year’s report yet

It looks like a planned gradual turnup

I’m pointing to an old one because the causes are well known, there isn’t any current propaganda campaign to confuse people about it, and its a wide-area unanticipated failure.

That kind of facility tends to have its own backup power, often with a week or so of fuel stockpiled on-site.

Back when Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, there was a period where the only building with power was a datacenter. The lights prompted soldiers to break in, and the system admin wound up having to pretend that they’d discovered evidence of somebody nefarious forcing the door, so they’d clear the building and leave.

I think that one is coming from the UK Daily Mail which is generally unreliable.

During one of these events, it’s really common for all kinds of misinformation and rumors to fly, and even to come from otherwise trustworthy people.

I’ll note that the US had some very large-scale blackouts in the 1960s which were caused by fairly ordinary technical problems.

It’s not even the bots; it’s that the feed ranking on 𝕏itter is tuned based on Musk’s whim, and he’s most likely modifying it so that people dot get seen if they’re not going along with his Nazism or cult.

There is a report

The following nine states have established statewide 30×30 goals and are currently in the process of implementing them: California, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, and Vermont.

I think the ones who might have a spine were purged from the Republican Party over the last few years. There might be a couple in the Senate and a few more in the house, but nowhere near enough

What do you mean nothing? They’ve actively supported him.

Read the article. It’s pretty clear that they’re looking at both podcasts and video content and at multiple platforms.

We need every reasonably large group on board, so Catholic support for doing the right thing is something I’ll welcome.
