As AI models commodify, Apple's plans to spend just $14B on 2026 capex, far below hyperscalers' combined $650B, or 90% of their cash flow, may be a genius move (Horace Dediu/Asymco)

Look at the bright side, this lobbyist could use another lobbyist to get his own presidential pardon.
The president is just fine for this cycle of crime-pardon-crime to expand.

The Trump administration ordered the restart of a Santa Barbara oil pipeline shut since the 2015 Refugio spill -- invoking emergency powers under the Defense Production Act.

California officials say the move defies court orders and state oversight.
Gov. Gavin Newsom said the state will sue.
The order escalates a fight over whether federal authority can override California regulators blocking Sable Offshore’s plan to restart the pipeline.

Trump invokes emergency powers to restart CA coastal pipeline. Newsom vows to sue
Trump is using Cold War-era emergency powers to force a California oil pipeline back online — and Gov. Newsom vows to sue, to block the move.

I am wrong! The New Colgate Powerhouse is independent, owned and run by the Yuba Water Agency. So the pipe failure is not PG&E's responsibility. PG&E's grid didn't respond very well but maybe there's water damage in the area that complicated things.

Building a graveyard isn’t good for anyone.

Blast near pro-government demonstration in Iran after Israeli warning
A large explosion rocked an area of Iran’s capital where thousands were gathered for an annual state-organized rally to support the Palestinians and call for Israel’s demise. Israel had warned earlier Friday that it would operate in the area in central Tehran. There were no immediate reports of casualties. But the decision to proceed with the mass demonstrations, and Israel’s threat to target the area, underscored the fierce determination on both sides nearly two weeks into a war that has…

"Old-school computing has a term 'molly guard': it’s the little plastic safety cover you have to move out of the way before you press some button of significance.
Anecdotally, this is named after Molly, an engineer’s daughter who was invited to a datacenter and promptly pressed a big red button, as one would.
Then she did it again later the same day."

This is a real "AI" ad from the US government about the end of the mandatory use of the auto start-stop.
This is from the official Whitehouse Instagram.
Only things I can see that gives it away that the video is generated is the red car's brake lights being on while accelerating. The obvious stereotypes of bule haired lesbians vs the blonde.
Also they have no insignias on the cars but that's definitely a Prius and idk what the red car is, the red car might…
