That means your power is going to go out way more often. Expect blackouts and brownouts and rolling outages. Expect your electricity consumption to be limited. Because you are not a data center pushing a large language model that nobody wants or needs.

About this Florida vaccine story: When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough. We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. “Oh, they’d have died.”

The fact that they're pushing personal freedom from vaccines but not freedom to choose proper healthcare options like abortion and gender affirming care, tells me what they really want is for everyone to die.

The thing about living in a human society is you either decide that everyone (except those for whom it would be medically dangerous) has to take VACCINES into their bodies or everyone (with no exceptions at all) has to take VIRULENT PATHOGENS in from those around them and, look, the first is better.
