Along the country road that leads to ATL4, a giant data center going up east of Atlanta, dozens of parked cars and pickups lean tenuously on the narrow dirt shoulders. The many out-of-state plates are typical of the phalanx of tradespeople who muster for these massive construction jobs. With tech giants, utilities, and governments budgeting upwards of US $1 trillion for capital expansion to join the global battle for AI dominance, data centers are the bunkers, factories, and skunkworks—and concrete and electricity are the fuel and ammunition. To the casual observer, the data industry can seem incorporeal, its products conjured…
Birth rates are plummeting across the world — America, Canada, South Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, Italy, Japan, Russia, and now England and Wales.

People simply cannot afford the costs associated with raising children and it is slowly changing civilization. England and Wales recently reported the lowest fertility on record since it began collecting data in 1938. Fertility rates in the UK are falling faster than any other G7 nation.

Naturally, the humorless media…

Some 300,000 reservists have been called up since the Hamas attack of Oct 7, 2023, according to the army, 18 per cent of them men over 40 who should have been exempted. Military service is mandatory from the age of 18 for Israeli men and women, though several exemptions apply. Israel is waging a multi-front war against Hamas in Gaza and Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon. Since the…
Hezbollah’s new leader, Naim Qassem, says that the group will keep fighting in its war with Israel until it is offered ceasefire terms it deems acceptable, as Israeli forces bombarded the ancient eastern Lebanese city of Baalbek and its outskirts following forced evacuation orders. “If the Israelis decide to stop the aggression, we say that we accept, but according to the conditions that we see as suitable,” Qassem said in a prerecorded televised address aired on Wednesday, his first speech since he was appointed leader. “We will not beg for a ceasefire,” he said, noting that political efforts to secure…
