Going Solo
I haven’t written in quite a while, been busy getting my own company up and running, after I discovered a serious issue that effects the data center industry (which I’ve been part of for the past 25 years or so). The issue puts every company in every business sector at risk, and so I was morally obliged to leave the company I’ve worked at for the past six years, to raise both awareness in the industry and also deliver a solution.
As soon as I left, I announced that I was starting my own company on LinkedIn, and would (and have) been providing a bunch of information for big data center owners and colo clients, warning them of what I’d found. The initial response was that head-hunters immediately starting banging on my door, asking me to build the next generation of data centers, focused on AI…? So while I’ve decided that I’m done as a W-2 employee for some big conglomeration, I did look at the technical requirements to build AI data centers, and I was stunned… frankly, while enterprise IT organizations and their data centers are notorious energy hogs, AI turns them into elephants. Basically, they consume 5-10x more power and water for the footprint.
Who GAF?
When combined with the latest power reports indicating the Biden administration (and his Deep State handlers) are forcing power production companies across North America to retire their facilities early, to be replaced with “renewable” power production. In other words, they’re getting rid of what kept the electric grid reliable, and replacing it with… shit.
And .gov is still pushing EVs.
The WSJ article “SOS For the US Electric Grid” was just touching the surface.
Now, the push for AI is causing ripple-effects that I honestly hadn’t considered; chiefly among them is that they require specialized data centers which consume between 5-10x MORE power than enterprise data centers, which are already energy hogs.
A recent Reliability Analysis Update from PJM, dated 12/5/23, makes the power issue perfectly clear:
- PJM has had unprecedented data center load growth (~7,500 MW) currently forecast by 2027- 28 in Dominion (Northern Virginia) and APS (Doubs)
- 11,100 MW deactivation announced
- ~ 5,300 MW of retirements occurred after the 2022 RTEP case was created
What this means is that power production has dropped by 16.4 gigawatts (gW) at the same time data center companies are demanding and additional 7.5gW. The gap is therefore ~24gW. And this is only in the Northeastern US, which PJM runs.
As a comparison, New York City consumes ~5.5gW.
Starting to get the picture?
It gets worse. The North American Electric Reliability Corp. (NERC) said in its annual Long-Term Reliability Assessment that gap between power production and demand will expand to 83gW on current trajectory, resulting in rolling blackouts across the Midwest, especially during high-demand times like the high heat of summer, or the dead of winter.
So yeah, been busy with other shit. Ironically, as conditions with power (and water) get worse, the demand for my services will increase.
But overall, looking at the macro picture, it’s like a rolling shit-show across the planet, the ultimate result of collectivist policies writ globally.
Other Observations
As I observed nearly two years ago, the Ukrainian “aid” was all a money-laundering scheme; basically the parasites in .gov are looting the treasury, stealing whatever isn’t nailed down. And I mentioned this when the total money “given” to Ukraine totalled “only” $40B. It’s now somewhere around $120B. At the time I posted the essay, not many people knew about it being a scam; now everybody knows.
So much money to secure the border… of Ukraine. NOTHING to secure our border.
They don’t even bother to hide it anymore.
The scam is simple, “give” Ukraine all your old, obsolete weapons systems, mark them down in the accounting books at full price, and then go to Congress and say we spent “X” amount of money to aid the Ukrainians by giving them weapons. The powder in the cartridges may be no good to push the bullet out of the barrel of the gun, but hey, Mr. Congressman, we need to replace that now! And so the congresscritters, weapons companies and the middlemen get fabulously wealthy, the shitty old weapons get sold on the black market, and the American taxpayers get royally screwed, sans lube.
Nothing ever changes.
In other news, my observations (of April 6 2022) that WW3 is still coming, a war between the Western countries (consumers) and the rest of the world (producers) are now generally recognized by everyone not enthralled by MSM outlets. The points are summarized by the following:
- The Western elitist banksters have maintained utter control of their respective financial currencies; this debt-slavery system is the basis of their power. It has been, for all intents and purposes, their private playground. This power has been used to buy anyone they want, in government, the military, the media, anyone they want.
- The Western banking system is based on debt issuance. It is dying rapidly. The entire fiat-money system, a Ponzi scheme of epic proportions, is now so heavily overloaded with bad debt that it is collapsing under its own weight. Countries who don’t use that funny-money as their sovereign currency but have been forced to utilize dollars/euros/yen for international trade, are busily switching to alternative currencies from countries that produce something besides fiat money. In other words, the demand for the Western currencies is rapidly declining.
- The much-touted “Great Reset” is a plan to depopulate the world (1st and 2nd world through vaccinations, the 3rd through starvation), and reset the financial system back to zero, so that everyone begins in the new system with zero debt… and zero property or possessions. The “Great Reset” will usher in the new trackable and controllable fiat-money currency, where they decide what and when you can buy approved products. And if you speak out against whatever bullshit the bankster-owned government is selling (which will be tallied via a Chinese-style social credit system) your money could be reduced, confiscated or flagged for your arrest the next time you go shopping with their new digital currency. You’ll toe their line, or you’ll starve.
- The “Great Reset,” where everyone will adopt this bitter pill of slavery, will only be accepted if people are desperate for government intervention due to starvation, lack of energy (heat for your home, gas for your car) or disease. And it will only be accepted if there’s no alternative currency which people can utilize to maintain some level of purchasing power without “Big Brother” watching over your shoulder, and deciding what you can- or cannot- purchase. The Russian ruble is exactly such an alternative.
- The BRICS countries- Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa- have resisted globalist efforts to become part of the Western banking system, and are now challenging that system, with currencies backed by commodities instead of the worthless promise of more fiat money. Thus, the represent a viable alternative to the “Great Reset” agenda, one which dooms the efforts to re-start the fiat money system from zero- with the same elitist banksters at the helm.
- The BRICS countries therefore represent an escape from the fiat-money system, and therefore are mortal enemies of the banksters, which have built their empire over the past 208 years. They must therefore be destroyed by the West, using whatever means necessary, at whatever cost is required in lives (but who cares about us debt-slaves, anyway?).
- The BRICS countries- most openly represented by Russia at this point in time- are not about to join the system, and now realize that it is- literally- a fight to the death for them, as well.
- Therefore, neither side will back down, the escalation will continue, up to and including nuclear weapons.
And now, here we are.
Trump and The Deep State- He’ll NEVER Be Elected, Despite The Polls
A new aspect that has recently come up is that RINO Congresscritters are “retiring” or “resigning” from the jobs, in such a way that there is insufficient time for special elections before the November 2024 election. This will remove the Republican majority, and hand the Congressional gavel over to Democrat collectivist shitbag Hakeem Jeffries, with a Democrat majority. This offers them two options to stop Trump from being elected for a 3rd time, listed in order of preference (for them):
- They will then enact a new law banning Trump from being on the ballot, which is allowed via the recent SCOTUS ruling regarding Colorado’s attempt to ban Trump, or
- They will refuse to certify the election results on January 6, 2025, because they don’t like the results. Ironically, this is exactly the justification for the “sedition” charge against Trump, from January 6, 2021.
Note I said “in order of preference.” The first is vastly more preferable, because they can make the claim that because Trump has been removed from the ballot, any claim that he actually should have won will be moot, because there will be no results to use as evidence. It’ll also have the façade of legitimacy, because SCOTUS left this door open, for the democrats to exploit.
The second is far less preferable, because a massive sweep in the popular vote, with undeniable results, only to be denied by Congress playing their shitty games, will further enrage the public. The second option will absolutely result in state secessions, and accelerate the collapse of the “United States of America,” as there will no longer be any veneer of unity.
This leads to another point. The estimated 12 million illegal aliens (highlighted, because that’s exactly what they are, not this horse-shit about “undocumented immigrants,”) are almost all military-aged men from countries that do not like us. That should be obvious to even the most obtuse collectivist (ahem) democrat.
WHY would .gov bring them in?
They’re to be the check against all the 2nd-Amendment folks. Put another way, the effectiveness of 2A, and the possession of ~500 million guns by North of 100 million Americans, will be diluted, if not stopped, by the ~10 million illegals also operating under the radar in civilian society. When teamed with Antifa/BLM/ADL groups and their organizational frameworks, this is the only feasible way for a government hell-bent on keeping power, to stop those deplorable Americans who love their country, God and guns.
Let me restate it in as blunt of terms as I can:
The illegals are an irregular army, to fight against Americans.
They’re here to sow chaos, kill anyone who fights back, and do all the lovely things that invading armies have traditionally done through the ages: burn, loot, rape and kill everyone they find.
The only thing they lack is the “go” order.
And that will come this summer, leading up to the election in November.
Remember option #2 above, where the Congress will refuse to certify the results? If led by the Democrats (which I think is a forgone conclusion at this point) they can easily say- if the Antifa/Burn-Loot-Murder/Illegal-Alien-Army does their job sufficiently well- “we can’t certify Trump because of the civil unrest that may result… it’s for your SAFETY, you see…” They’ll have (in their view) the moral high-ground, by solving the ongoing civil unrest, by getting rid of that hated Orange Man Bad.
For idiot leftists, this is the perfect solution, both emotionally satisfying and tactically sound means of shitting on all those nasty deplorables. Beautiful! How can it get any better than THAT???
So yes, the first option for the Democrats will be to use a Congressional law to ban Trump from being on the ballot come November, for whatever excuse will be the most plausible.
Any way you slice it, the collectivists will use lawfare for one more big push, to ban Trump, and after analyzing this for the last few weeks, I don’t see any way to stop them through legal means. Their actions will push us into uncharted territory, which would take months to years to sort out in a court of law (if there was any court left that wasn’t dirtier than dirt).
The ONLY thing that will stop this, is when American patriots finally say “ENOUGH of this shit,” pick up arms, and start exercising the 2nd Amendment for its original purpose.
And that is precisely why the illegal alien army that has been imported, is here to stop patriots from interfering with the final takedown of our Constitutional Republic, which has been on life-support for decades.
We WILL end up in CW2 within the next 12 months, and it will just get a lot worse from there.
I hope there are enough patriots left, to overcome the government and their new army.
I hope patriots don’t wait until it’s too late, to save our country.
When the dems move to either block Trump from the ballot, or refuse to certify his electoral college votes… either way, that’s when you’ll know.
Trump doesn’t necessarily have to be reelected to be the “last trump”.
He just has to be the biggest, loudest, perceived opposition wether he wins or not or even survives.
If you put your hope in mankind to fix itself good luck with that.
I’ll put my hope in the biblical “last trump” of the rapture instead.
…and now that demonic fag, flash, will show up like ants at a picnic to spew his unsolicited opinion on the Rapture.
…and now that demonic fag, TCS, will show up like ants at a picnic to spew his unsolicited opinion on everything.
Balance in all things…fag. We’re done here.
How many names do you post under?
I’m guessing at least 4 or 5.
That’s because you’re a fag. You expect everyone else to act like you and are constantly surprised when they don’t. Then you get pissed because you betrayed yourself with your own normalcy bias.
Fag.
Nice rant. Now then, how many names do you post under?
I’m guessing at least 4 or 5.
Langly is just doing it’s sad little job.
Ignore the lowest level spook and find inner peace.
He’s an errand boy sent by grocery clerks to do nothing much but sow a bit of discord. and even that is inconsequential.
A nobody doing nothing for nihilist nitwits.
flash is controlled opposition
He’s a demon infested psychopath. That’s about as fake and gay as it gets.
He so bright…he glows
Trump will win the popular vote with 60%+, but the Democrats don’t want to certify his election…Instant CW2…nobody is President…That actually might be best for the country, getting it over with….
Yeah, the Republicans won’t certify Biden either. Supreme Court will decide the next President.
I honestly don’t believe the “republicans” will have the backbone.
Miscalculation: It’s a lo easier to kill a non citizen than to kill a citizen. “Let it rip”, I say. “Let them try!”
There are many States in the South and Southwest where a sizable part of the population will be happy to shoot illegals in any quantity…It’s the disarmed people in blue States who will be at risk…
not elected.
not installed.
?
Or elected/installed with absolutely no control to do squat and the juggernaut rolls on.
One of the best articles I have read in quite a while. The most important part is the plot to deny Trump the White House. Yes, it will go down something like that and it will destroy the country. Yeah, I hear all the naysayers. Don’t vote, they are all the same, Trump is a Globalist, blah, blah, blah. Bullshit.
If Trump wins by a convincing margin and the Democrats refuse to certify his election, all hell will break loose. Keep him off the ballot? Not going to happen. That train left the station some time ago.
Be prepared and understand that if the moment comes there will be no neutrals. Every Democrat will become a mortal enemy. Harsh? Yes. Civil war is not pretty and you had better be ready to do what it takes to ensure that they lose and never dream of raising their heads again and trying to destroy our country.
RINO’s and fence sitters will have to be dealt with first; nobody gets a pass in this one (Maybe we can cut the Amish some slack). Unity is everything and weak sisters must go to the wall. Women who do not support the fight for America can expect a stern lesson.
As for our friend waiting for the “Rapture” to sort everything out. Jesus did not wait for God to chase the moneylenders out of the Temple. He did it himself. I for one will not be amused by Americans who think they can sit this one out.
The rapture is not meant to save believers from worldly trouble, but from the wrath of God when He’s had enough of the world.
People who are waiting for the Rapture are just the spectators sitting on the hill watching the revolution being fought .
No.
They are people who have heard The Word went to the instructed hill, and are watching God’s mushroom cloud erase the evil.
That’s right DH, I’m just a spectator.
My understanding was that the SCOTUS ruled against CO’s attempt to ban Trump from their ballot. What did I miss?
Of course…You missed nothing…
{SCOTUS} explained that the 14th Amendment was intended to expand the federal government’s power at the states’ expense. And in particular, they noted, Section 3 was designed to “help ensure an enduring Union by preventing former Confederates from returning to power in the aftermath of the Civil War.”
But before disqualifying someone under Section 3, the justices observed, there must be a determination that the provision actually applies to that person. And Section 5 of the 14th Amendment gives the power to make that determination to Congress, by authorizing it to pass “appropriate legislation” to “enforce” the 14th Amendment. Nothing in the 14th Amendment, the court stressed, gives states the power to enforce Section 3 against candidates for federal office, nor was there any history of states doing so in the years after the amendment was ratified.
Moreover, the court added, allowing states to enforce Section 3 against candidates for federal office could create a variety of problems. First, although Section 5 requires Congress to tailor any legislation that it enacts to implement Section 3 so that it specifically targets the conduct that Section 3 was adopted to prevent, state efforts to enforce Section 3 would not face this same limitation. “But the notion that the Constitution grants the States freer rein than Congress to decide how Section 3 should be enforced with respect to federal offices is simply implausible,” the court concluded.
Yes, the Feds could actually try to restrict candidacy for President…but anything plausible, like age, would kick Biden off the ballot too…..
From the Colorado case:
A group of Colorado voters contends that Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution prohibits former President Donald J. Trump, who seeks the Presidential nomination of the Republican Party in this year’s election, from becoming President again.
The Colorado Supreme Court agreed with that contention. It ordered the Colorado secretary of state to exclude the former President from the Republican primary ballot in the State and to disregard any write-in votes that Colorado voters might cast for him.
Former President Trump challenges that decision on several grounds. Because the Constitution makes Congress, rather than the States, responsible for enforcing Section 3 against federal officeholders and candidates, we reverse.
Get it now? IF Congress passes a law to ban Trump at the Federal level, than it’s game over.
That can- and WILL- happen if enough RINOs leave without enough time for special elections going into the November election, to hand the majority over to the Democrats, who have already submitted a bill barring Trump for “insurrection” during January 6 2020.
Once Democrats have the majority, they WILL do this.
Sure, except politics is more fake and more gay than even the elections for them.
Even the tree-huggers are taking notice….
AI already uses as much energy as a small country. It’s only the beginning.
One of the areas with the fastest-growing demand for energy is the form of machine learning called generative AI, which requires a lot of energy for training and a lot of energy for producing answers to queries. Training a large language model like OpenAI’s GPT-3, for example, uses nearly 1,300 megawatt-hours (MWh) of electricity, the annual consumption of about 130 US homes. According to the IEA, a single Google search takes 0.3 watt-hours of electricity, while a ChatGPT request takes 2.9 watt-hours. (An incandescent light bulb draws an average of 60 watt-hours of juice.) If ChatGPT were integrated into the 9 billion searches done each day, the IEA says, the electricity demand would increase by 10 terawatt-hours a year — the amount consumed by about 1.5 million European Union residents.

Lots of conjecture in this article which is fine. What is not conjecture in this article is that grid capacity is being reduced while grid requirements are increasing. That is fact. Most sheeple have no concept of this. They seem to think we have an unlimited supply of energy. Rolling blackouts in burbs across America may finally wake up the sheeple but I doubt it. Demos will blame Trump and sheeple will say oh that explains it.
All that are allowed to live will live in sheds and ride electric bikes to government factories except for the elites if they get their way.
Better than grass huts and peddle bikes I suppose.
It’s not about what we have but who we have.
God in Jesus, family and friends.
Trump will be elected, but he will be denied the presidency by a corrupt government.
The two are not the same thing.
Without question.
The fully corrupt government did it to him in 2016-2020 and it worked. They will certainly do it again. Let’s see if “The 4D chessmaster” can put enough smart and ruthless pieces on the board to bring about the checkmate of the evil Deep State. I think I will not hold my breath.
They didn’t cheat enough in 2016, learned their lesson and cheated a great amount in 2020. The question is can they cheat enough to win without being totally exposed in 2024 as Trump is so far ahead in electoral votes! They will be sure to whine about that again when Trump wins and try to get majority vote alone to win the presidency. Direct elections of Senators was the start of the ruin of this country.
Doesn’t matter who wins…cause no one wins, it’s war whatever the outcome. The Patriots will fight to save the nation and the Communist rabble will fight to destroy the Republic…puppet “shitty pants” will preside on his knees before the Obomination.
Check out the “Wide Body Area Network” where they can use your body as a battery and an operating system through this AI technology and each day they get closer and closer to eliminating the true Human and transforming us all into Cyborgs.
I’m stunned that people are still talking about Trump as if he is some legitimate threat to the status quo rather than being the Judas goat he has proven himself to be.
But that’s where we are I guess.
I don’t know who coined the phrase you can’t fix stupid, but they hit the nail on the head.
I dunno HSF, the status quo is acting like their very lives are in imminant mortal danger if DJT regains power. If he were one of them, wouldn’t they pretty much ignore or even help their marionette, not be pulling their own heads off in fear and obvious hatred of the man?
QED.
Acting being the operative word.

Please don’t throw me in the briar patch.
Br’er Rabbit, I’d do no such thing to such a distinguished TBPer.
But a rich man getting more rich ain’t proof of anything.
I would assert that the pieces of shit who would try to rule us all are REALLY terrified of DJT. “Acting” is a figure of speech. They aren’t “acting” in the sense of playing a part, they are BEHAVING like creatures who are genuinely terrified. Why would they “ACT” the partof hating DJT to promote one of their own puppets? If he were truly one of them, why did they do everything they could to undermine him when had presidential power and continue to do so every single day since he descened the golden escalator in 2015?
QED.
My conspiracy prediction: The 2020 election results will be overturned prior to the Nov election. Trump will be installed as president for an insignificant, miniscule amount of time, then barred from running for a 3rd term. It judos the Trumpist law and order crowd, giving them a Pyrrhic victory. It disgraces and flushes Biden AND Harris. It throws the upcoming election into chaos. Demons get to manifest and laugh about getting away with blatant criminality for a full 4 years, with zero repercussions. Tell me how/ why I’m wrong.
