Time to call CERN and tell them to shut off the Large Hadron Collider, I think it's flipped us into The Upside Down!
You’re all worried about what Jensen did. I’m more concerned the govt is leaking this to the media now and if they had suspicions earlier, did not inform Jensen!

NVIDIA’S BOARD EXPRESSES CONFIDENCE IN JENSEN AND THE LEADERSHIP TEAM, WITH JENSEN FULLY BACKING THE REVIEW AND PLEDGING COOPERATION
Ask yourself why now? And by whom? Knife Jensen to make Trump and AI look bad OR knife Jensen to try to rug the market to turn the blue wave bloody red. I say you’re seeing a bi-partisan effort.
Statement from Nvidia:
"The NVIDIA Board is initiating an independent investigation in light of recent reporting that founder and CEO Jensen Huang has been the target of a foreign intelligence effort.
A committee of independent directors, assisted by outside independent counsel, will oversee the investigation.
The Board prioritizes U.S. national and economic security, which is paramount to the interests of NVIDIA and its shareholders.
While the Board has no reason to believe that either national security or NVIDIA secrets were compromised, the Board's inquiry will examine all available information.
Jensen fully supports the review and has committed to cooperating with it.
The Board has confidence in Jensen and his leadership team and will provide further updates as appropriate." $NVDA
The correct response instead of speculation “Nvidia opens probe of CEO Huang being targeted by possible Chinese spy” cnbc.com/2026/11/08/nvidia-j…

Another unexpected comparison: one of our data centers uses about as much water in a year as a single Krispy Kreme store.
Not the whole chain. One store.

It’s not just that the building of data centers benefits US workers with jobs. It’s the output—A.I., embedded in industrial processes, that will increase US worker productivity and competitiveness. Or we can rely on tariffs, which just make imports and our lives more expensive.

Data centers in Loudoun County, Virginia: “We get $1.2 billion a year in local tax revenue, about 40% of all of our tax revenue...on 3% of our land”
Buddy Rizer, the county's economic development chief, explained how “data center alley” grew:
“We would have never looked at having 55 million square feet of data center, 230-some buildings. That was not the plan. The plan was to utilize the fiber loop, the internet exchange, to utilize a reclaimed water line, and buildings that were already built. That was the plan, right? And so that made a lot of sense.”
“But, you know, fast forward, today we are largely dependent on that. We get $1.2 billion a year in local tax revenue, about 40% of all of our tax revenue. And while that looks overwhelming, data centers take only about 3% of all of our land in the county. So it’s quite a return on investment. You know, 40%, $1.2 billion, on 3% of our land.”
SpaceX’s Arizona data center, per a county supervisor: “We could be reducing property taxes across the board in Cochise County, the entire county, by 20%”
Frank Antenori, whose district includes the site, brought up the county’s tax math during a live Q&A:
“Here’s just something to just chew on. Arizona has an expenditure limit requirement that is placed on counties. If we exceed that expenditure, we have to rebate back to the taxpayers a certain amount.”
“So, if we’re receiving revenue in from SpaceX, by law, we have to offset that to the taxpayers. We have the potential to reduce, based on the projected revenue they’re creating, as much as 20%.”
“Let me just say it again. We could be reducing property taxes across the board in Cochise County, the entire county, by 20% to offset for the revenue here, because we can’t spend all that money. So, we have to give that money back to the taxpayers. The law says we have to.”
“So, you could see a potential significant impact to local property taxes. What that is, I don’t know. We’re going to have to do the math on it. But the law, if we have this large increase in property tax revenue, we have to balance those rates. So that will reduce dramatically the property tax burden of every resident in the county.”
“The construction sales tax, which also is the TPT, the transaction privilege tax, the retail tax, and the jail excise tax. So that will be part of the construction tax. We could literally use that money to pay the jail off in 2 to 3 years, as opposed to the 13 to 20 years.”
“So this could be a revenue to eliminate the half-cent sales tax in 2 to 3 years. We can get rid of that half-cent sales tax.”

Exclusive: Nvidia has submitted a proposal to Brightspeed, an Apollo-owned broadband provider reportedly nearing bankruptcy, to convert some of its 130-plus telecom buildings into AI data centers.
Nvidia estimates the sites have roughly 1 gigawatt of available power, potentially enough to run tens of billions of dollars of Vera Rubin chip systems.
