Or a local library and $0.10

Give a stoner a bag of weed and nothing to smoke out of and suddenly you'll have an engineer.

Yeah, thermodynamics are a thing. I'm not trying to claim some free energy system saying you could power the whole data center; but if you could re-capture some of the waste heat and convert it back into electricity, putting that energy to work instead of just venting to atmosphere, it could potentially help offset some of the raw electrical needs. An efficiency improvement, that's all.

Collect and condense the hot water vapor, concentrate the heat until you've got steam; then pump it through a steam turbine recapturing that energy as electricity.

I'm sure there's some difficulties and nuances I'm not seeing right away, but it would be nice to see some sort of system like this. Most power plants generate heat, then turn that into electricity. Data centers take electricity and turn it back into heat. There's gotta be a way to combine the two concepts.

Yeah, the guy that single-handedly dropped the company's stock value by ~20% should get a nice big bonus.

Excellent sound quality, durable+replaceable cables, and options between a TRS(aux) cable, USB C cable, or even a Bluetooth adapter.

I've made a habit of wiping the contacts on the earbud and case with a finger before putting it away, then I give the bud a bit of a wiggle once it's in so the contacts rub together and hopefully dislodge/break through any dirt or oil.

Intentionally defacing/altering currency is a federal offence in itself. Though rarely enforced unless particularly egregious or you intend to defraud someone with it (like altering a 10 to be a 100 for example).

Aside from that, any business you attempted to spend it at could and likely would simply refuse to accept it.

At best you'd be left with a bunch of bills that can only really be exchanged for new ones at a bank. At worst you could face roughly $100 in fines+6mo in jail for each bill defaced.

Good, because the citizens certainly are.

Went to the grocery store the other day; the ice-cream isle had new 'made in canada' labels on Canadian brands. Most of them were 5-10% more expensive than others.

It was ALL sold out. The rest of the brands were just sitting on the shelves.

Got high and collected some potatoes, what a vile and heinous crime; lock em up for a decade.
