Because of cities. NYC and Minneapolis-St. Paul carried their states. The northern parts of both are fairly red. They're the ones that will feel the biggest pinch

Of course they're on the same grid. Most of the US is interconnected. The Eastern interconnect connects everything East of the rockies, excluding Texas
Prices are fairly localized depending on the cost of production at the plant nearest to you. Much of Southern Minnesota is fed by the Monticello nuclear plant, for example. It's the northern areas where Canadian power generation isblargely used because it's closer. It's those places that will have try to get power from elsewhere in the upper midwest grid (if there isbany capacity), or pay the additional 25% tax
The states as a whole are liberal, but the rural northern parts are fairly conservative. It's the northern parts that consume the bulk of the electricity imports
I got a warning for a similar thing. They can disagree with the report, but warning/banning users for it is insane
I have the opposite impression of the over-moderarion. Most Redditors seem to be annoyed by it, and against how it's stifling conversations
The US officially de-prioritized countering Russian cyber threats a few days ago. It makes sense they would become more emboldened
[From interviews in 1953] The author determined that his interviewees had fond memories of the Nazi period and did not see Adolf Hitler as evil, and they perceived themselves as having a high degree of personal freedom during Nazi rule
I never considered some Germans still favored the Nazi regime after WW2, or at least not a significant number, especially not otherwise normal people. I've ordered a copy of the book
Will you still be saying that when Trump puts a resort in Gaza?
Trump has made it crystal clear: He plans for the complete and total ethnuc cleansing of Gaza. All Palestinians will be killed or removed
That's what Arab and Palestinian Americans chose when they voted for Trump
At least it will be really funny if Bluesky just becomes the new Twitter and Musk's 55B loses most of its value
I don't know why I do this to myself, but I read through Meta's disclosure
Every single lobbyist I looked at worked in DC before becoming a lobbyist. I knew it happened a lot, but it's really depressing to see
Also, why do these disclosures not require companies to specify how the money was spent? There are only ~20 different lobbyists mentioned, and Meta spent 7.6M in a single quarter
ByteDance has a lot of money. Trump likes money. Trump's only leverage over ByteDance is allowing TikTok, so he'll do that in exchange for money
Zuckerberg and Meta are much more centralized in the US, which gives Trump far more options in terms of what he can offer them. Trump will give Zuckerberg something else to placate him. Probably lots of cheap H-1B labor
The FBI agrees with you
(Although they have since taken down their PSA woth no explanation)
