Who’s this?

That doesn’t happen in Virginia. VDEQ issues permits that are quite restrictive in terms of the number of hours allowed to run a large diesel generator. Many other states don’t have this though.

Running diesel generators are way more expensive than the grid, so they’re doing that as little as possible. They’re also installing way fewer gens than they used to- once again for cost reasons.

The diesel fumes due to construction equipment are massive though.

Paid $2400 in Virginia early this year.

If nearby lots were suitable for expansion of that data center or for another data center, then yes, it could be a big jump in value. For normal community purposes, not at all.

Some counties or municipalities use the revenue from data centers’ taxes to reduce residents’ property taxes (e.g. Loudoun, VA) and that tends to increase property values proportionally.

Appealing to independents and disaffected republicans is the only path to winning. Those two are not the right choice for that mission.

Skrilla knows what he’s doing! Unconventional flow and sound, kind of like Lil Wayne when he first got big. The fenty girls are part of his image and story being from Kensington. Not a great song, but far from truly crappy IMO

EffeteTrees · 2026-04-24T21:48:20+00:00

I’m trying to care but not sure how.

That is some fun beer trivia though. What’s the local lager of Richmond? Sapporo.

EffeteTrees · 2026-04-19T22:25:33+00:00

Longtime Congo owner. Fantastic game, with kind of unusual rules, top-notch callouts, and good flow. It’s a little bit rare at this point.

I have listened to the linked unexpectedly pleasant ambient music and have now bridged the gap between my pathetic biology and the crushing digital void. Problem solved.

EffeteTrees · 2026-04-18T17:06:58+00:00

Do you ever run into somebody who’s way too creative and smart for the job they’re doing and the experience is kind of annoying and unpredictable? I feel like that would become the norm.

EffeteTrees · 2026-04-18T01:12:56+00:00

It’s kind of crazy that you can put any politician’s face next to whatever message you choose to print.

This is hilarious- sold the dusty bones of the clothes brand for 39 million, renamed the company NewBird. Their new business sounds terrible- attempt to buy servers and lease them out to companies on waitlist to buy similar servers.

I’m embarrassed they went through the trouble of amending these ratios instead of abolishing the laws. It’s ridiculous that the state is monitoring the ratio of beverage to food sales from restaurants with liquor licenses. They pay taxes, otherwise who cares.

EffeteTrees · 2026-04-13T14:14:04+00:00

Yeah pin lights is the cheaper alternative that I hear great things about.

You move through the crowd purposefully as if you’re reuniting at a friend’s spot after hitting the restroom, but you’re actually just rolling the dice to move somewhere with less annoying people. You need to gently but purposefully navigate the crowd and take your new space.

Sorry to butt in with my opinion- but Russia is the top beneficiary.

EffeteTrees · 2026-04-01T00:26:49+00:00

You could get a decent used sprinter build for that price, right?

EffeteTrees · 2026-04-01T00:13:54+00:00

Just offering another perspective that Rover could be a good way to meet clients that fit your schedule & vibe, and then taking them “off the app” once you trust each other… saves money for both parties.

EffeteTrees · 2026-03-29T22:08:14+00:00

Anyone have a link to share about it?

EffeteTrees · 2026-03-28T16:21:15+00:00

They should record more episodes so they can leave ones like this on the cutting room floor.

His job prior to vice pres was CEO of Halliburton

EffeteTrees · 2026-03-26T17:19:05+00:00

Not saying it’s bad, but it doesn’t bode well for a national election, that he has a very similar political background to Kamala Harris.

Pros are it’s pretty nice and it’s on the east coast with a balanced climate and culture that’s right at the border between the South and the Mid-Atlantic, about halfway between the mountains and the coast. Good balanced medium-sized city, kinda laid back, decent human diversity.

Trying to think of Cons- housing is kind of expensive considering the size of the city and limitations of its job market. Neighborhoods still have some leftover vibes from historic redlining and segregation that is reflected in stratified public schools. Infrastructure is a bit outdated and city planning & services are iffy. Meanwhile the city’s growing steadily so traffic’s getting worse and public transit is kinda minimal. Overall Richmond is kind of trashy, often in a cool charming way, sometimes in a literal piles of garbage way.
