#Dilemma #Germany = customer of #Russia #Energy 

Imagine the of as a of . and overall and geopolitical not forgetting !

If are one of the biggest customers of energy from could you imagine bombing your energy supplier and destroying the deal you did ?

It would kill the devil and enemy but also your own economy built from leveraging it cheap fuel and gas from somewhere else!!

Giving is just another attack method for these United $tates... 

TLDR - It's never aid Capitalism 'gives' - more infiltration to makes sure it's never a free lunch for those "receiving" and just making it worse...

🖼️ Description of picture and why:

depicted picture, as peace doves fly above - however the are like a dropping other things at the same time.

Bombs are shown but what is given can be less visible even aid or help can be "given" as water wells in order to capture a market and make them pay or command and conquer territory as usual wanted outcome. Never free or for freeing people.

So it's not aid overall - more opportunity for more infiltration and territory of many sorts - never a free lunch for those poor 'receiving'.

Giving is just an attack method and only what these States are about - money and banks as control and leverage. This is all what they are ever about... 💲 🏦 Banks too everywhere doing the same 'giving' debt.

"Giving ...
Giving is just another method for these $tates..."

( All states not just States / )

at the heart of it all too giving debt.. Yes will try save you every time...

Corporate social networking sites are a bit like dogs. Puppies, actually. We all want them to stay little and cute forever, and this is where the analogy breaks down. The dog gets bigger and is cute in a different way. The billionaire-owned social networking sites just turn the cute puppy into dog shit.

I think that clickbait is the wrong term considering that, a new study of 35 million news links circulated on Facebook reports that more than 75% of the time they were shared without the link being clicked upon and read.

I worry that there are more nefarious reasons for having the headlines misrepresent the stories, but that's blueanon stuff I suppose.

“We said no to #Coachella for next year because again, we’ve been there once, and once was enough. It’s in Palm Springs. It’s a golf resort built on a desert, run on a sprinkler system, using public water supplies. Mental. If you want to see something that’s the most ludicrous bit of human behavior, it’s right there.”

#Ireland embraced #DataCenters that the #AI boom needs. Now they’re consuming too much of its energy

By MATT O’BRIEN
December 19, 2024

CLONDALKIN, Ireland (AP) — "Dozens of massive data centers humming at the outskirts of #Dublin are consuming more electricity than all of the urban homes in Ireland and starting to wear out the warm welcome that brought them here.

"Now, a country that made itself a computing factory for #Amazon, #Google, #Meta, #Microsoft and #TikTok is wondering whether it was all worth it as tech giants look around the world to build even more data centers to fuel the next wave of #ArtificialIntelligence.

"Fears of #RollingBlackouts led Ireland’s grid operator to halt new data centers near Dublin until 2028. These huge buildings and their powerful computers last year consumed 21% of the nation’s electricity, according to official records. No other country has reported a higher burden to the International Energy Agency.

"Not only that, but Ireland is still heavily reliant on burning #FossilFuels to generate electricity, despite a growing number of wind farms sprouting across the countryside. Further data center expansion threatens Ireland’s goals to sharply cut planet-warming emissions.

"Ireland is a 'microcosm of what many countries could be facing over the next decade, particularly with the growth of AI,' said energy researcher Paul Deane of University College Cork."

#Chess #Quote The world? Just black and white squares, no colors, no joy..." 

"The world? Just black and white squares, no colors, no joy — just the haunting rhythm of the pieces that led to this moment."

A quote from Gambuzyan on LiChess.com

"This is the ultimate nightmare for any professional chess player.

Honestly, I’d rather break my arm than go through something like this again. (In fact, one of the reasons I quit professional chess was to escape these super-stressful days.)"

⬇️ MY ADDED COMMENTS ⬇️

players have (same in many things "PROFESSIONAL" (meaning often to over-do it or mainly do 1 thing) where we could 'win ' a bit more in terms of championS in life overall (not business of extraction for being taxed) and more even playing field, even if not _the_ best and not needing get the most all the time as relativity to your '' in life).

Life is not just and squares to though even though the and working against people would only want to see people in black and white (as , , working for them or not, and all the kind of ways to look at things without etc)... and people out of life that way - basically making a all the while in stress more than really helping each other or real change from this ...

things try to it the only to play and live...

Life is more than this of - don't get into thinking and only doing this way.
