๐Ÿค– ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ ๐Ÿšฑ A large data center in Fayetteville, Georgia, used more than 29 million gallons of water over many months while the local water company was unaware and did not send a bill at first.

Residents in the Annelise Park neighborhood complained about low water pressure, which revealed the issue.

The QTS data center sits on 615 acres with two large water pipes that were improperly installed, as one was added without notifying the water company. Most water was used during construction for pouring concrete and controlling dust.

After the error was discovered, QTS received a bill for about $150,000
The company says that once fully operational, it will use a closed-loop cooling system requiring very little water each month.

As a result, the Fayetteville City Council voted to ban all new data centers in the city.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ•Š๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท โ€” United States President Donald J. Trump says that, at request from Arabian Peninsula princes, he cancelled planned strikes against Iran which were reportedly scheduled for tomorrow:

I have been asked by the Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, and the President of the United Arab Emirates, Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, to hold off on our planned Military attack of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which was scheduled for tomorrow, in that serious negotiations are now taking place, and that, in their opinion, as Great Leaders and Allies, a Deal will be made, which will be very acceptable to the United States of America, as well as all Countries in the Middle East, and beyond. This Deal will include, importantly, NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS FOR IRAN!

Based on my respect for the above mentioned Leaders, I have instructed Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, The Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Daniel Caine, and The United States Military, that we will NOT be doing the scheduled attack of Iran tomorrow, but have further instructed them to be prepared to go forward with a full, large scale assault of Iran, on a momentโ€™s notice, in the event that an acceptable Deal is not reached.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!
President DONALD J. TRUMP

An Explanation for Declining Fertility

The collapse of the Selective Turnover Coefficient (d) from the ancient hominin baseline of 0.86 down to a modern level of 0.015 represents the functional shutdown of natural selectionโ€™s primary mechanism for the human race.

From 1908-1940, Sears sold over 70,000 mail-order homes for around $938, shipped by rail for easy assembly by owners or local builders.

$938 in 1910 is equivalent in purchasing power to approximately $32,604 today.

What would that get you now?

Anti-Israel Global Sumud Flotilla activists seen hugging and having fun after being safely transferred to Israeli vessels

Israelโ€™s Foreign Ministry reports that no humanitarian aid was found on any of the boats.

Of course, once deported, they will likely flood the media with claims of โ€œtorture,โ€ โ€œpoor conditions,โ€ and โ€œhijacking.โ€

Turkish President Erdogan has already condemned Israelโ€™s actions as โ€œpiracy and banditry.โ€

Mission accomplished, I guess.

๐ŸšจAutoZoneโ€™s alleged memo on motor oil supply is ugly, and your next oil change could prove it

โ€ข Reports point to a looming motor oil shortage tied to the Iran conflict.
โ€ข An alleged leaked AutoZone memo estimates a 40% drop in lubricant supply.
โ€ข Shop owners say prices are climbing, and stocking up at home may be smart.

In the memo, the writer says, โ€œRealistic, middle-of-the-road estimates are for our average available supply in this product category [lubricating fluids] to drop by 40%.โ€ That figure continues to pop up, and it basically means one thing. Oil changes, transmission fluid changes, really anything that lubricates your car is about to get more expensive.
