re: Louisiana to Limit Out of State Use of EBT Purchases
Posted by HighlyFavoredTiger on 5/22/26 at 11:45 am to Tarps99
After they do this they should cut EBT use at Sam’s, Amazon and Costco. It’s a sick feeling to work 40 hours a week making $42.60 an hour and have to check out at Sam’s with your bare essentials while the obese family ahead of you checks out 3 buggies of steaks, pork roast, ribs, sausage, and everything else needed for a 20 person bar b q and pays with their EBT cards.

Yeah glycol is pumped through the system, cools the components by absorbing heat, how do they cool the glycol?
re: La senator helped secure Meta’s largest data center. Then he sold the land beside it
Posted by HighlyFavoredTiger on 5/21/26 at 5:14 pm to 4cubbies
I’ve got a feeling there was and still is a lot of other politically connected people that made money or will make money from inside information and shady, back room deals on this and other data center projects, that’s why the general public is being left out and completely avoided when the permit and permission process happens.
On a side note…Foster Campbell helped rush through permitting process for that Meta data center, after being an absolute prick and stumbling block to every other public service and energy company in the state and he suddenly decided he had enough money put away to retire from the PSC.

I’ve got a 1977 Remington 788 in 6MM REM, I’ve bought my last 100 rounds of Hornady brass from Midway but always watching sites that handle once fired brass.

That would power about 4 to 5 million average homes, from what I’ve seen reported Entergy is building combined cycle units to provide power but if the consumption is 5GW, they’re only building about half that, but will supposedly be buying another 1,500 MW of solar. It seems like just a matter of time before data center power demand starts putting a strain on supply for homeowners.

Have any of y’all bought from Bayou Brass? I’ve seen them list once fired and new brass on Ammoseek, looks like they’re located in Pearl River. I’m interested in standard caliber rifle brass, 6MM Rem, .270, .30-06, .308

I’ve worked at 5 different facilities that used closed cooling water loops, regardless of where they got their water source, no CCW loop can cool for extended periods of time without adding more water to the system, solids build up, chlorides build up, water evaporates, systems require blow down to remove solids and regulate chemicals, water leaks from pumps, piping and equipment…there are multiple reasons why a closed cooling water loop isn’t just fill it and forget it, you can be assured, they will use more water than they’re reporting that they use.

They aren’t fooling anyone with that anymore. Especially the local black communities.

While this sounds good and would be great if applied in every town, let’s not kid ourselves, in the small and mid size towns around Louisiana and most of the other Southern states, these radical groups ARE still fooling many people who want to hate Trump or conservatives in general and they are fooling many in the local and vocal black communities, who only see skin color and only listen to what the “paid for” talking heads tell them to listen to.
Until large numbers of local blacks are willing to stand in front of a news camera and take a vocal stand against activities that are coordinated by outside influences, no one can assume that they are not being fooled nor influenced by them, money talks in those communities.

You’re spot on and unfortunately most larger towns in LA like Shreveport, Monroe, even New Orleans aren’t far behind Pine Bluff, if welfare and other government programs ever cut back most cities in the South would finish failing.
re: Do you think we know exactly where the uranium is
Posted by HighlyFavoredTiger on 5/17/26 at 4:44 pm to LChama
We can’t seem to determine whether we still have gold in Fort Knox and it’s our gold and our storage facility, but if there is uranium, Israel has probably kept our government informed about it since the minute it came into existence.
re: Need a firm pillow recommendation

Take a look at cervical neck pillow for side sleepers on Amazon, I got one by mistake but tried it and haven’t used anything else in 5 years, they run about $30-40. I’ve had nerve problems in my neck and shoulders and that pillow has made a big difference.

One of the biggest eye opening things about Doge and all the other money tracking efforts of the last year and a half is how much fraud and theft are actually occurring daily and have been just shrugged off and accepted by the mass general population!
Every government program is being abused at the tax payers expense and all that’s happening is articles saying individuals and groups have been caught and identified. It’s shocking to me that our state and Federal governments have reached a point where they are just handing out money unchecked.
While at the same time, I personally know several good people who were hard working, tax paying, law abiding Americans who now need assistance from some of these government programs and can not get any! They have to pay lawyers large sums of money to try to force Social Security and other agencies to allow them to draw a small portion of what THEY paid in back for their use. Every government program is broken and nobody, foreign nor domestic, is drawing government funds without SOMEONE approving it, so it’s time to start weeding out the government workers, insiders, that are allowing this theft of taxpayer funds to occur.

Ol’ baw is 6’7” 275 lbs, being from that little Oak Grove area, probably a real le’rustre young fellow, most likely used to smoking, dranking, whooping lesser young fellows and just generally doing whatever the heck he wants to. A baw like that and packing a .40 cal and pissed off about the car he’s driving can’t be a recipe for a good outcome.

re: Jailpal admits to conspiracy against the US
Posted by HighlyFavoredTiger on 5/7/26 at 5:40 pm to LSUbest
That’s cool and all that, but I’ve seen multiple postings similar to this indicating that some government agency has discovered elected officials and other folks that have broken laws, committed treason, actually took part in insurrections and committed numerous other offenses that would get people shot or hung by other countries, but I have yet to see a long list of these people being charged, arrested and prosecuted.
It’s time to stop hollering “look what we found out” and start charging some of the folks.

It’s good to hear that there are places that are actually doing the things you’ve pointed out, areas like you are in seem to be getting more scarce by the day.
re: Anyone from Crowell, tejas? (re:data centers)
Posted by HighlyFavoredTiger on 5/2/26 at 10:07 pm to DeBoar
Don’t know where you are but I wouldn’t assume they wouldn’t be coming to wherever you are, whoever is behind these centers has lots of money and behind the scenes bagmen. 5 months ago folks in the Shreveport/Bossier City area would have said what you said, assuming that they would have a vote or get to voice an opinion but by the time they found out anything, local politicians had already got paid under the table and there were 3 data centers coming and they’re about to convince the citizens they need to draw water from protected lakes in the area. So money talks and usually wins, from what I’ve seen in Louisiana, if Meta or Amazon want to build near you, they most likely will be building near you.
