just something to keep in mind....
something like 62% of all water used is for alfalfa crops grown to feed industrial livestock operations. the US exports 1.1 billion tons of beef annually. meaning, multinational meat packing corporations are literally exporting our water so they can capture markets in Asia and elsewhere.
only like ~20% goes to all of Residential, Commercial and Industrial use.
The majority of the water in the Colorado River basin—more than one trillion gallons—is used to grow feed for livestock, connecting the region’s water crisis to how much dairy and meat we eat.

simply managing the resource a teensy bit for the benefit of the public would free up enough water for generations of new development.
this is a resource management problem and can readily be solved if enough people got angry and forced Big Ag to mildly cut back their profits.
as far as I understand, they were not there to serve a warrant. he was crossing a border and the feds are claiming that the 4th amendment doesn't apply because he hadn't yet crossed into America.
border patrol was essentially using a loophole to preemptively collect potential evidence (they'll figure out what to charge him with after they see his phone contents). he's a political activist against a cop city, they were obviously trying to do him dirty.
they were not serving a search warrant. they were abusing what should be an illegal search at the border in order to silence those who speak out against govt overreach.
AI use boosted homework scores by 18 per cent and cut homework time from 64 to 45 minutes – a clear productivity leap.
viewing homework as "productivity" like it's an assembly line outputting widgets is such a middle manager-brained framing.
isn't the point of homework to, ya know, LEARN?
homework is just self-guided educational time, it's not about how fast you "complete" it.
even if you answer all questions correctly and quickly, but you don't understand how or why... you got those answers... well then you kinda failed the point of the homework, no?
