Hey, I recently came across something about how using ChatGPT and similar AI tools actually consumes a surprising amount of water (cooling data centers, I guess). Made me wonder, have people here stopped or reduced using it because of that?

Curious how others are thinking about it in terms of sustainability and personal impact.

I feel like the messages say enough but I’ll just add some extra context. I’m 18 and she’s 17 and her and her bf don’t have any privacy to have sex so they want to do it at mine. I have a bf aswell and my parents are completely fine with it. He is over most days aswell. I feel like I’m being a little mean for not letting her do it at my place but then again it find it dirty. Can anyone help me out and tell me if I’m overreacting or not? We haven’t really spoken since

He's sleeping on the job yet tolerated by his coworker. Smh.

Republicans are borrowing 5 trillion dollars and signing your name on the loan.

They are borrowing to enrich themselves and using your future as collateral.

There is an old wife's tale that if given enough food a horse will keep eating until it kills itself.

It is not true, seems animals are smarter than people, or in this case Republican members of congress.

If you haven't been paying attention, congress is about to pass the House tax bill. In short, it calls for 4 1/2 trillion in tax cuts for the wealthy, the uber wealthy, and the already obscenely wealthy.

4 1/2 trillion equates to four thousand five hundred billion dollars, or four and a half million, million dollars.

And where is all this money coming from. you ask? I'll tell you; the House tax bill also calls for raising the debt limit by 5 trillion dollars. In other words, we will borrow the money to pay for tax relief for the rich.

Republican greed knows no bounds. They will borrow and borrow. and like the mythical horse, swill until it kills them and our economy. During his last administration Trump caused the national debt to skyrocket 33% and now will increase it another 5 % trillion dollars!

You know who will pay off this enormous debt? No one. There will be no country, and no economy left once these money hungry gluttons leave the trough.
