One of the most dispiriting things about this timeline is the way dudes who lack any imagination for anything but appropriating others have tried to create the future they were fed as kids--conquering Mars and boxy silver cars. Basically, human LLMs run on Bitcoin miners & testosterone boosters.
We got tricked by science fiction into thinking a futuristic city is all about flying cars and crystal towers and hologram billboards but what it really looks like is nice apartment blocks, good mass transit, pedestrian zones with shade trees and safe bike lanes.

Hi,
If you have looked at the leadership screen this week, you have probably noticed the same thing I have.
Materials owns the board. Rare earths, lithium, silver miners, copper miners.
Energy services and semis round it out. Six names at the top of the relative strength rankings. (1/2)

England-Mexico: In Hidalgo, the "paste" is a spicy version of the pasty introduced by Cornish miners hired in the 1820s to revive the silver mining industry. Not very exciting, huh. Well in their leisure time they also introduced Mexico to something called soccer.
Norway-Brazil: The most interesting shared history here really is soccer. Brazil - mighty Brazil, 5 World Cups Brazil, global kings of soccer Brazil - are 0-2-2 all-time against Norway. The inverse is true in women's soccer, though, where Norway is 0-3 against Brazil.
Paraguay-France: Aimé Bonpland, a French botanist who accompanied von Humboldt, was imprisoned by the Rodríguez de Francia regime for a decade on trumped-up spy charges because they were afraid he had learned too much about growing yerba mate and they didn't want him taking it to Europe. Also (1/2)

One of several mining towns in or near the Black Range, Chloride was a silver mining boom town during the 1880s, a rowdy town comprised of miners, gamblers and ranchers. The Pioneer Store is a step back in time, shuttered since the early 1900s. #NewMexico #travel #OffTheBeatenPath #daytrip #roadtrip
