Today I heard some US official going on about how it's ideal for datacenters.

Presumably the B200s will be brought in via dogsled.

US has absolutely lost the plot

I hope we can at least avoid the sanewashing.

> President Donald Trump has renewed his efforts to take over Greenland, and tapping into the Danish territory’s natural resources is a key part of the strategy.

It is not "taking over" or "annexing". It is invading. A military ally, at that.

And it is not "tapping into [...] natural resources". It is plundering their natural resources.

None of these hypotheticals are consensual. There is no plan for a freely agreed-upon bilateral agreement. This is about invading and pillaging a foreign land. Whether it is Greenland, Canada, or any other country.

I find it funny that they could simply exit the Antarctic treaty and take over Antarctica and gain more value. There's plenty of good stuff under that ice too. It's very likely that it's got his favorite mineral of all: gold.

What about 50-100 years from now when most of the ice will have melted?

Yet one more bafflingly stupid decision from the cruelest and stupidest administration the US has ever seen. Perhaps electing a failed businessman and malignant narcissist and surrounding him with yes men was a bad idea? The cost of eggs certainly hasn't gone down.

Doesn’t matter, must have for trophy

So you’re telling me there’s a chance?…
