  1. watching “Hilarious Nuclear Criticality Incident at Los Alamos” with Pu rods; Right at the end, the podcast author talks about his industry, the north sea Oil industry and how if he’d stayed as an Engineer he’d spend the rest of his career doing cleanup, decontamination and disposal instead of the *sexy* Engineering dreamed up in University.

    After watching the #OpenAI, #Anthropic, #NVidea shitstorm this year, a lot of *AI engineers* will also meet this fate. Cleaning up the toxic AI mess left behind.

  6. The Dirty Secrets: #Whales, the #GrandCanyon and #WarCriminals

    by #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews

    "People who travel the world will tell you two things that they really love: Whales and the Grand Canyon.

    "The majestic Orca whales are now at risk from the massive oil tankers departing the shores of British Columbia with thick crude oil from Alberta tar sands in Canada, bound for distant refineries and ports.

    "Meanwhile, in the heart of the Southwest, the Grand Canyon, loved by the people of the world, now has a uranium mine spewing radioactive dust into the air, and endangering Havasupai's aquifer and future generations.

    "Neither the Appeals Court in Canada, nor the U.S. EPA and Interior have done anything to stop these assaults on the most beloved natural wonders in the world, whales and the Grand Canyon.

    "Rueben George, səlilwətaɬ, Tsleil-Waututh Nation, remembers the long fight to halt the Trans Mountain Pipeline, now carrying crude oil from Alberta tar sands to the Salish Sea, which flows off the shores of British Columbia and Washington State to the Pacific.

    "George said they thought they were winning their case in Canada's Appeal Court.

    "'They said you're right it's going to kill all the Orca whales, you're right -- but we're going to build it anyway,' George said at the Salish Sea Assembly in Seattle in November.

    "The uranium mine in the Grand Canyon is now spraying radioactive dust on Havasupai's medicine plants, and into the air for the world's travelers to breathe. The uranium mine, operated by Energy Fuels of Canada, threatens the aquifer of Havasupai and future generations.

    "The mine's radioactive truck transport is a deadly risk for Supai, Paiute, Dine', Hopi and Ute on the haul route. The radioactive ore is transported by truck to the Energy Fuels mill in the White Mesa Ute community in southeastern Utah.

    "Interior's Deb Haaland, who is Laguna Pueblo and Norwegian, has not only failed to halt the deadly risks and destruction, but has proclaimed that the atomic bomb industry, Los Alamos National Laboratory, will lead the green 'energy transition.'

    "Los Alamos Labs produces nuclear weapons and is already poisoning the Pueblo homelands in northern New Mexico with radiation. A federal judge recently halted the push to produce and store more plutonium at the site, citing a risk to the environment."

  7. O'odham Woman Becomes Hero When Genocide Joe Comes to Town

    By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, Oct. 25, 2024

    "In the #GilaRiver Indian Community today, Biden claimed to be issuing an apology to #NativeAmerican children who were victims of U.S. #BoardingSchools. His glory campaign was short-lived.

    "As Biden spoke, an O'odham woman held up this sign: 'There Are Still Babies in Mass Graves. Your Apology Means Nothing!! #LandBack!'

    "Calling out to Biden, she said, 'What about the people in #Gaza! What about the people in #Palestine?'

    "'How can you apologize for a #genocide while actively committing a genocide in Palestine! #FreePalestine.'

    "Security removed her."

  8. #Colombia's #Indigenous Demand #AncestralKnowledge is at Forefront of #COP16 #Biodiversity Convention

    Indigenous communities from different regions of Colombia march in the southwestern city of #Cali to demand that their ancestral knowledge on #conservation be taken into account at the #UNBiodiversity summit, COP16, which is being held in the city.

    Article by #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Oct. 24, 2024

    "The United States is the only United Nations member state that has not ratified the Convention on #Biodiversity. While 197 countries arrive in Cali, Colombia for the COP16 Biodiversity Convention, the U.S. is engaged in #WarCrimes and #genocide in #Palestine.

    "In the U.S., the team of #Biden and Interior Sec. #DebHaaland plans to desecrate the #Hualapai's sacred ceremonial water with a #LithiumMine; is promoting #LithiumMining digging into the #Paiute Massacre Site at #ThackerPass; is allowing #UraniumMining in the #GrandCanyon threatening Havasupai's aquifer and poisoning their #MedicinePlants with #radioactive dust; allowing #dumping radioactive ore and global radioactive waste in #WhiteMesaUte's community; is bulldozing the ancient village sites, burial places and medicine plants of #TohonoOodham and #SanCarlosApache for a wind energy project; plans a massive #CopperMine from San Carlos #Apache sacred #OakFlat; and plans to increase the radioactivity in the #Pueblo homelands with increased #plutonium production and storage at #LosAlamos Labs in northern #NewMexico."

  10. #AMD Has a #GPU to Rival #Nvidia’s #H100
    #MI300X is a GPU-only version of previously announced #MI300A supercomputing chip, which includes a #CPU and #GPU. The MI300A will be in El Capitan, a supercomputer coming next year to the #LosAlamos #NationalLaboratory. El Capitan is expected to surpass 2 exaflops of performance. The MI300X has 192GB of #HBM3, which Su said was 2.4 times more memory density than Nvidia’s H100. The SXM and PCIe versions of H100 have 80GB of HBM3.
