> Nearly 50,000 residents in the Lake Tahoe area may lose their primary electricity source after Nevada utility NV Energy announced it will stop supplying power to the region by May 2027, citing soaring demand from AI-driven data centers in northern Nevada. The article says major tech companies including Google, Apple, and Microsoft are expanding data center operations nearby, creating massive new electricity demand that is reshaping regional energy priorities. Local officials and residents warn that Tahoe’s small customer base could face rising costs, unstable energy supplies, and limited political leverage as utilities prioritize industrial users tied to the AI boom. The dispute also exposes regulatory gaps between California, Nevada, and federal energy authorities, leaving no single agency fully responsible for protecting Tahoe ratepayers.

Rooftop

Just seconds before I pressed the trigger, there was a Beatles tribute band playing Get Back on top of the roof. Someone yelled, "You've been playing on the roofs again, and you know your Momma doesn't like it, she's gonna have you arrested!" The band split. The person who spoke the words was a Paul McCartney tribute person.
