Clout chasing is a scourge. The world would be a much better place if people weren't constantly playing to an audience.

You shouldn't cite Wikipedia because it's a secondary source. For any remotely serious work, you're supposed to go back to the primary sources Wikipedia is citing and reference them instead.

The public bathrooms in the park near me are about as good as the ones in the nearest Starbucks. The only thing the Starbucks has going for it is a better hand dryer. The public park restrooms are open 24/7, which is a huge point in their favor. Maybe if more cities had clean public restrooms open 24/7, they'd have fewer problems with unhoused people with poor hygiene.

I think it's more about justifying the purchase of xAI, which otherwise makes no sense, not that orbital data centers make the tiniest bit of sense. It's part of a pattern of Musk using one of his companies to buy another to protect him from the shame of the purchased company going belly up. See Tesla/Solar City and xAI/X for previous examples. Don't be surprised if Neuralink is next.

This video is a great example of why YouTube remains valuable despite its problematic corporate ownership. Now you just need a condensed version for the people who can't manage the (gulp) feature-film-length runtime.
