Direct quote from the article:

Having difficulty securing enough grid power to fuel the energy-hungry data center, xAI brought in 35 portable gas turbines, and assembled them without environmental permits or pollution controls.

Looks like it’s not just cooling that they’re doing there. The link in the quote leads to an article describing the data centre’s new turbines, specifically referring to them as methane gas turbines.

I skimmed that article briefly and I don’t think it points out the mechanism by which these turbines work - if it does, I must’ve missed it. I did however see a line that said the turbines also release formaldehyde during operation.

Methane in this case seems to me to either be a byproduct of power generation or unused fuel somehow leaking from the system. I have no clue how gas turbines work, so I’m talking out of my ass here. In any case this seems to be the source of the methane emissions.

While we’re talking about tower defence, I really recommend the Gemcraft series! IMO probably the best tower defence games out there. Chasing Shadows and Frostborn Wrath are both on Steam, and I highly recommend them.

Damn I’m bad at searching, then. Thanks!

Then I realized I was being circled. Which was an extremely unnerving realization. I went from thinking about aggro ranges and AI states to being thrust into a situation that I sometimes have to worry about not falling into in real life.

Makes it that much more sad seeing A-Life getting trashed in STALKER 2. Moments like these were awesome

From what I remember yes, it’s a placeholder for currency

“ROCK AND STONE!”

Yeah, it’s hand-colored. Kudos to whoever did it, it looks really good.

Oh jeez I didn’t realise you were talking in context of just the 40 series and thought you meant all the cards 😅 My mistake.

Apologies in advance, but you have got to be bloody insane to think the 4070ti is a midrange card.

I’ve been using proton for a few months now with a yearly Mail Plus subscription and I have yet to receive an actual spam e-mail. Your experience might be different than mine since I take precautions not to invite spam in the first place, but even then, Proton looks to be doing an excellent job

ah damn, fair enough

iirc it’s so that the text will appear correctly in the side mirrors of a car ahead of the ambulance but I’m sure there’s more to it than that
