One of the best documentary series is I have seen is “How The States Got Their Shapes”. If you are a history buff, it is very informative. I highly recommend it.
The Ohio River was the original west cost. Four states had claimed parts of the original Northwest Territory (the Great Lakes region). Ohio was the very first state that was carved out of the public land system of the United States.
Ohio was technically not a state until 1953. Congress had never passed a joint resolution formally approving the state's constitution in 1803. So the process of statehood was never completed. It was discovered when Ohio wanted to celebrate their sesquicentennial, which necessitated Eisenhower hastily signing a declaration of statehood in 1953.
@DaddyO that's nothing. Italy wasn't a country before March 17, 1861, when the Kingdom of Italy was proclaimed with Victor Emmanuel II as king. And they say that an Italian discovered America.....
Lots of people think that Washington DC’s borders were changed due to the VA taking back the territory they ceded to the District during the Civil War. However, it was the pro-slavery residents of Alexandria, VA that wanted out when they were looking to outlaw slavery in DC. So in 1847, Congress altered the boundaries to allow 1/3 of the District to go back to the slave state of Virginia.
Data centers are often established in drought-stricken regions
"In Brazil, in the city of Caucaia, where a computing center was planned, as much as 80 percent of the abstracted water used for cooling during such a process would evaporate. In turn, this would greatly exacerbate shortages in the region."
Israeli Interior Minister #BenGvir announced his intention to imprison #GretaThunberg in a facility for terrorists if she attempts to breach the #Gaza maritime #blockade again. According to Israel Hayom, he is preparing a corresponding strategy to present to #netanyahu
Under the plan, if participants in such actions are detained, they'll be sent to Kziot & Damon #prisons, where #terrorism suspects are held.
Yet, he is the minister and in charge or the lives of Palestinians in occupied west bank and even in Israel.
I am not expecting any reaction from Swedish neo-nazi/ultra right government after this outrageous announcement, just like the last time she was kidnapped, they will stay silent and go through diplomatic channels to "solve the problem".
Από το πέρασμα σε διάφορα μέρη της Μεσογείου μπορώ να πω ότι υπάρχει όντως πρόβλημα λειψυδρίας. Πως γίνεται όμως και όλα τα μέρη που διαμαρτύρονται για λειψυδρία (παντού) να είναι τέτοια;
A massive turnout at the funeral for the Prime Minister in the Yemeni government, the martyr Ahmed Ghaleb Al-Rahwi and his fellow ministers who rose after the occupation's aggression a few days ago.. Heroes of support, men of supply, brothers of sincerity, may God accept you
"In 2023, data centers consumed about 560 billion liters of water globally; could reach 1,200 billion by 2030. Much of this growth is fueled by the development of AI. Training the GPT-3 model alone required about 700,000 liters of fresh water - enough for nearly 12,000 showers. According to estimates, by 2027 the AI sector will be consuming as much as 6.6 billion liters per year. That's like taking the entire annual water needs of Denmark or half of the UK." architekturaibiznes.pl/en/what…
@Haleakalacrater yeah, I used to think there was something to it when I was a kid and just read the story in a book. After watching the series, I’m convinced there is no treasure there, though all the stuff they found in terms of the archaeological history is more interesting to me than the treasure.
"In 2023, global demand for data center power reached 60 GW. Is that a lot? Well, you could say it's equivalent to nearly 29 times San Francisco's annual energy consumption, the equivalent of 14 Mumbai's demand, or about 2.1 times the projected peak power of the entire country in 2024. Just a decade ago, a 30 MW data center was considered a major undertaking. Today, facilities much larger (on average, almost 7 times), with much more powerful capacity." architekturaibiznes.pl/en/what…
European Central Bank chief Christine Lagarde said Monday that it would be very dangerous for the global economy if US President Donald Trump took control of US monetary policy.
Italian dockworkers threaten an Israel cargo ban if a Gaza flotilla is blocked.
A new aid flotilla bound for Gaza set sail from Genoa, with a dockworker warning that if communication with the flotilla is lost, port workers would immediately block all shipments to Israel.
The ships will join the Global Sumud Flotilla expedition that departed from Barcelona in an effort to deliver humanitarian supplies through Israel’s blockade.

@foufoutos ήμουν σίγουρη πως κάτι στράβωσε με το μπακ απ ρε... Και όχι τίποτε άλλο, αλλά όλη την προηγούμενη βδομάδα ήμουν εδώ, θα μπορούσα να σας μαζέψω όλους να έρθετε για κάνα μπάνιο...😕 Κρίμα ρεεε
The image depicts a classical marble statue of a nude male figure standing on a pedestal. The figure is depicted with a confident stance, with one arm raised and the other holding a draped cloth. The statue is detailed, showcasing the musculature and anatomical features of the human form. The figure wears a simple cap on the head, and the hair is intricately carved, adding to the realism. The statue is set against a solid blue background, which contrasts with the white marble, highlighting the figure's form. The statue's pose and expression suggest a sense of calm and composure.

Les 🏭fossiles pour la production électrique en 🇩🇪Allemagne c'est en moyenne sur les 365 derniers jours (30/08/24-29/08/25) 273.93 tonnes de CO2 par minute.
En 🇫🇷France, sur la même période, c'est 19.90 tonnes par minute, soit 13.77 fois moins.
données @ElectricityMaps
Et tout ça pour une production 🇫🇷française 24% supérieure à celle de l'🇩🇪Allemagne sur cette période (520.25TWh contre 419.53).
Ah bah ça alors, les ventilateurs et autres plaques PV ça suffit pas ? les grünen à 2 balles sont passés par là ... Ils gentrifient un max et roulent en vélo (quand il fait beau) et en tesla ...
C'est vrai qu'un parapluie à vélo, c'est compliqué. 😎 Autant aller à pied. Mais moi, je me suis acheté un bon chapeau en cuir et j'y ai mis un lacet pour qu'il ne s'envole pas lorsque je roule à vélo. Par contre, ça doit être nul en bagnole, même en Tesla. Et un parapluie en bagnole c'est pire.
Bien résumé : -Perte de charge utile -Temps d'immobilisation pour la recharge -Investissement supplémentaire -Marges en baisse Mais le capital ne veut pas gérer le coût de la transition, toujours dans sa putain de vue court-trmiste. Si il ne fait pas les efforts suffisants, Il faudra le forcer par la loi, et il repassera son disque rayé de chantage à l'emploi, compétitivité, blah, blah, gnan, gnan, .. Pas de solution miracle, changeons notre vision, il faut beaucoup moins de camions sur les routes et vive le ferroutage !
@PANAFOLKS 2 oui exactement. En Suisse les trains font tout le transport sauf le dernier km (et souvent même le dernier km, il y a des quais de déchargement chemin de fer à l'arrière des hypermarchés) et voilà. Mais la folie du tout-camion a été imposée par l'UE...
@Emmanuel Florac La dernière arnaque en projet de l'UE, autoriser les camions extra-longs. Pour le CO2 ? Que nenni, mais bien pour réduire la place de cet inutile d'humain appelé chauffeur, car il pèse environ 35% du coût du tansport ... Ça pose pleins de pb de sécurité et de partage routier avec d'autres véhicules, car nos réseaux ne sont pas adaptés à ces bahuts à 2 ou 3 remorques, on est pas dans les routes qui traversent le bush australien ! L'UE des barges et ses lobbies ont bien bossé !
Häromveckan skakades Norge av ett högerextremt mord. Den mördade var en 34-årig kvinna som arbetade på det ungdomshem som den misstänkta mördaren bodde på. När extremhögern blir allt mer transnationell & gränslös krävs mer samarbete över nationsgränserna för att hejda utvecklingen.
Few presidents—if any—in our lifetimes have done as much damage as George W. Bush did in his eight years in office. Unfortunately, a number of pundits are
Résumé : Débat sur les mobilisations syndicales de septembre 2025
Contexte général
Discussion entre militants syndicaux critiquant la stratégie des directions syndicales face aux mobilisations prévues les 10 et 18 septembre 2025 contre le budget Bayrou.
Points clés développés
Critique de l'intersyndical
L'intersyndical (CFDT-CGT) a attendu le 1er septembre pour se réunir face à une mobilisation spontanée prévue le 10
Appel concurrent au 18 septembre perçu comme une tentative de "dynamiter" la mobilisation du 10
Contraintes techniques : impossible de déposer les préavis de grève nécessaires (15 jours minimum dans certains secteurs)
Stratégie de division présumée
La CFDT impose sa ligne avec des revendications jugées floues ("mesures contre la précarité", "justice fiscale")
Abandon du retrait complet de la réforme des retraites au profit du seul "abandon des 64 ans"
Séparation artificielle entre questions sociales et politiques
Position de Jean-Luc Mélenchon
Soutien inconditionnel à l'intersyndical sans critique de ses manœuvres
Vision "réformiste" privilégiant le débouché électoral sur la radicalisation des luttes
Citation d'un discours où Mélenchon revendique une approche "pacifique" et "institutionnelle"
Enjeux stratégiques
Opposition entre mobilisation spontanée (type "gilets jaunes") et contrôle syndical traditionnel
Nécessité d'unifier crise sociale et crise politique
Critique du "dialogue social" et de la recherche d'interlocuteurs gouvernementaux
Conclusion des auteurs : Plaidoyer pour une auto-organisation révolutionnaire dépassant les divisions imposées par les appareils syndicaux et politiques.
Ah bah c'est sûr, que les rois de la division à gauche et les agents infiltrés du capital vont être sollicités, comme d'hab quoi et après on dira à tout le monde, allez on rentre à la niche les gens ... Et si cette fois-ci ça prenait ...
a lil Nep Nep and country flag! 
happy bday bro.
