The video shows a heating network in Kherson damaged by shelling. An entire district has been left without heat. This attack is part of a strategy to destroy energy infrastructure and deprive people of electricity and heat. Such attacks bear the hallmarks of #CrimesAgainstHumanity, as they are widespread, systematic, and primarily target the civilian population. 🎥: Kherson СMA

🚨 SOUTH KOREAN SCIENTISTS JUST CREATED HOLLOW SILICON NANOTUBES THAT TRAP HEAT AND TURN WASTE ENERGY INTO ELECTRICITY. Researchers at POSTECH have developed a new hollow silicon nanotube structure that dramatically reduces thermal conductivity. By turning solid nanowires into microscopic pipes, they trapped heat-carrying particles (phonons) inside the tubes, cutting thermal conductivity by 70% compared to solid wires. Even when both structures had the same surface area, the hollow nanotubes still ran 33% cooler. This phonon localization effect previously thought to require extreme cold or exotic materials was achieved at near-room temperature using simple silicon nanotubes. Why this matters: • Waste heat from data centers, EV batteries, factories, and electronics is currently lost this could capture and convert it into usable electricity • The technology uses abundant, cheap silicon instead of rare and expensive materials like bismuth and tellurium • It’s highly compatible with existing semiconductor manufacturing, making large-scale production more realistic • It solves a long-standing problem: silicon is great for chips but terrible for thermoelectric energy conversion The deeper implication: This breakthrough shows that clever nanoscale engineering can unlock new capabilities from ordinary materials. By controlling how heat moves at the atomic level, researchers are opening a path to more efficient energy recovery systems without relying on scarce resources. As AI and computing power keep growing, finding ways to recycle the massive amounts of waste heat they generate will become increasingly important. How significant do you think waste-heat recovery technologies like this could become in the next decade? Follow for more frontier materials science and energy innovation.

Heat 2 is Officially Heating Up! 🔥 Bale + DiCaprio Team Up — (Video: AI) Heat was a true classic — and now Michael Mann (director of the original Heat) is bringing it back with two absolute A-listers. Christian Bale steps into the Vincent Hanna role (originally played by Al Pacino) and Leonardo DiCaprio takes on Chris Shiherlis (originally played by Val Kilmer). Filming kicks off in November! As a longtime fan of both these powerhouse actors, this has me excited. Does Heat 2 have strong potential to be a blockbuster hit? Do you think it will live up to the original? Could it be even better? 🎥

Satya Nadella: Microsoft’s latest Wisconsin AI data center keeps yearly water consumption no higher than that of 1 local restaurant. "The cooling loop is filled once and the data centre can operate effectively with zero water consumption. Daily water usage across a year is roughly equivalent to what a single restaurant would use" The mechanism is mainly about replacing evaporative cooling with closed-loop direct-to-chip liquid cooling, so water moves like coolant inside a sealed machine rather than being boiled off into the air. Hot GB200-class AI racks produce too much heat for normal air cooling, so cold liquid is pushed through pipes into the servers and across metal cold plates touching the hottest chips. The liquid enters the rack cool, absorbs heat from the chips through cold plates, then exits the rack at a higher temperature and carries that heat through pipes to a huge cooling system outside the compute floor. Microsoft says Fairwater sends that hot water to cooling “fins” beside the datacenter, where 172 20-foot fans blow air across the fins and dump the heat into the outside air. The important detail is that the air cools the water through metal surfaces, so the water does not need to evaporate the way many older datacenters use cooling towers. The cooled liquid then returns to the servers, repeats the loop, and keeps absorbing heat from the chips. In older data centers, heat is often removed partly through cooling towers. Hot water meets moving air, some water evaporates, and that phase change carries heat away. Effective, but it consumes fresh water continuously. But Firwater is a closed loop because the same coolant keeps circulating through sealed pipes: it absorbs heat from the chips, releases that heat through radiator-like fins, then flows back to the chips again. For Wisconsin Fairwater, Microsoft says more than 90% of the facility uses closed-loop liquid cooling, while the remaining portion uses outside air and switches to water only on the hottest days. ---- From "Microsoft" YouTube channel, (link in comment)

The devastating numbers of Russian attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure: Since the start of the heating season, Russia has attacked Ukrainian energy facilities and heat supply systems 256 times, the Security Service of Ukraine said. Russian forces deliberately targeted Ukraine's 11 hydroelectric power plants and 45 major combined heat and power plants. In addition, they carried out 49 targeted aerial strikes on thermal power plants and 151 strikes on electrical substations. Each attack was combined: dozens of Geran drones and Iskander, Kalibr, Kh-101, and Kh-69 missiles. The heaviest strikes were recorded in Kyiv and Kyiv region, as well as in Kharkiv, Odesa, Dnipropetrovsk, Sumy, Mykolaiv, and Chernihiv regions. The attacks during the sharp cold snap led to large-scale power, heat, and water outages in the homes of millions of Ukrainians. The SSU classifies Russia's systematic attacks on Ukraine's energy system as crimes against humanity. ❗️ This is a consistent policy of the Kremlin aimed at destroying the Ukrainian people.

🚨 SCIENTISTS JUST TURNED WET COFFEE GROUNDS INTO COAL-LIKE FUEL IN 90 SECONDS WITHOUT DRYING IT FIRST. Researchers in South Korea have developed a plasma-based system that converts moisture-rich coffee waste directly into high-energy biochar. The process uses flame plasma (reaching 1,470–1,650°F) to trigger rapid carbonization through a “popcorn effect,” where steam bursts inside the grounds break apart the structure and accelerate the reaction. In under two minutes, the system produces a carbon-rich material with an energy content of 29.0 MJ/kg comparable to anthracite coal while tripling the fixed carbon content and completely removing sulfur compounds. Why this matters: • Most biomass conversion methods require energy-intensive pre-drying, which this process eliminates • The resulting biochar has a much higher heating value and surface area, making it useful as fuel or for activated carbon applications • It generates minimal smoke and tar compared to traditional methods • The technology could work on other high-moisture wastes like food waste, sewage sludge, and agricultural residues The deeper implication: This represents a fast, potentially decentralized way to turn problematic organic waste into valuable resources. Instead of spending energy and money drying biomass before processing, the moisture itself becomes part of the solution. If scaled, technologies like this could help close the loop on organic waste streams while producing renewable solid fuels or advanced carbon materials with far less processing time and cost than current methods. It’s a clever example of working with the properties of waste rather than fighting them. How useful do you think rapid, drying-free waste-to-fuel systems like this could be for industries or cities dealing with large volumes of organic waste?

Data centers in Virginia, not residential customers, should pay the costs of new transmission lines and substations their developments require. My Administration is urging the State Corporation Commission to take this commonsense step to protect families from increased costs, improve accountability, and set up a more affordable and reliable energy system.

🚨 SOMETHING MASSIVE IS BREWING BENEATH THE PACIFIC AND IT COULD TRIGGER A MONSTER EL NIÑO. New 3D ARMOR data reveals a giant subsurface heat reservoir in the Pacific with temperature anomalies reaching +6°C below the surface far deeper and stronger than normal. This is not surface warming. This is the Pacific’s internal heat engine loading up with enormous energy. If powerful Westerly Wind Bursts push this heat upward, the surface response could explode into +3°C to +4°C territory creating a hybrid Super El Niño unlike anything we’ve seen in decades. Why this matters: • A monster El Niño would bring extreme heat, crop failures, chaotic rainfall, floods, droughts, and global weather disruption • The heat is already there — it just needs the right trigger to rise • This is atmosphere-ocean physics operating at full power, not “nature taking revenge” • Monitoring shows the system is primed and ready The deeper implication is alarming: We may be watching the early stages of one of the most powerful El Niño events in modern history forming right now beneath the waves. If this heat vents upward… the consequences could be felt worldwide for years. What do you think are we heading into dangerous new climate territory, or will the system stay contained?

Water usage has been a hot topic in the AI data center world, but the numbers may surprise you. According to the Manhattan Institute, data centers use 0.2 percent of daily water usage in the U.S. and that number has dramatically decreased in the past few years due to a new method: liquid cooling. By moving to 45°C liquid cooling, AI factories in favorable climates can use dry coolers instead of conventional cooling-tower-based systems, cutting facility cooling water use from roughly 2.6M gallons per MW per year to near zero. Liquid cooling enables AI factories to be both water and energy efficient, while creating opportunities for heat reuse and dispersal to local communities, allowing these factories to become energy grid assets.

What looks like a server boiling underwater is actually one of the most advanced cooling technologies used in modern computing This demonstration showcases a two-phase immersion cooling system, a method increasingly explored for high-performance computing and AI infrastructure where traditional air cooling becomes less efficient. Instead of using fans to move heat away, server components are submerged in a specialized non-conductive dielectric fluid that safely surrounds the electronics without causing electrical short circuits. As processors generate heat, the liquid absorbs thermal energy and begins to boil directly at the component surface.

🚨 THE ENERGY TECHNOLOGY THAT COULD POWER CIVILIZATION FOR THE NEXT 100 YEARS ISN'T FUSION. Molten Salt Reactors use molten fluoride or chloride salts as coolant and in some designs, the nuclear fuel itself is dissolved directly into that salt. This is very different from traditional reactors. Instead of solid fuel rods sitting in water under high pressure, these systems run at much higher temperatures but at atmospheric pressure, which dramatically reduces the risk of explosions or meltdowns. The salt can flow over solid fuel, or the fuel can be mixed directly into the coolant. Both approaches are being actively developed. Why this matters: • MSRs operate at high temperatures, making them potentially much more efficient at generating electricity and process heat • Low-pressure operation makes them inherently safer than conventional water-cooled reactors • Some designs can burn existing nuclear waste or use thorium as fuel • The technology could support everything from advanced power generation to hydrogen production and industrial heat The deeper implication: For decades, nuclear power has been dominated by one basic design concept. Molten salt reactors represent a fundamental rethink using a liquid that can act as both coolant and fuel. This opens the door to reactors that are safer, more flexible, and potentially capable of solving some of nuclear energy’s biggest historical challenges (waste, fuel efficiency, and public perception of safety). While still in development, MSRs are one of the most promising pathways for next-generation nuclear power. We may be looking at the early stages of a genuinely new chapter in how humanity generates clean, reliable energy. Do you think molten salt reactors will become a major part of the future energy mix, or will traditional designs continue to dominate?

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian: “Last winter we experienced power outages and shutdowns, but this year there were none. We must ensure that this does not happen in the summer either. The public should not have to endure electricity shortages in the summer. Cutting gas and electricity to factories is unacceptable, as it causes heavy economic losses and has a cascading impact on employment and tax revenues. The solution to the energy crisis lies in efficient consumption. Energy consumption in Iran is three times higher than in Western countries. Bringing clean energy into the system will create a major transformation in energy consumption patterns.”

In 1995, 77.1% of global primary energy was provided by fossil fuels. As of 2024 (the latest data I could find), 76.4% still comes from fossil fuels. That's a whopping *sarc* 0.7 percentage point drop in 30 years. Governments have spent TRILLIONS of taxpayer dollars on “green” energy projects, and while growth in renewables has been enormous (particularly solar), it has barely made a dent in the global energy mix (note, these figures are based on the substitution method for fair cross-comparison, so it slightly lowers fossil fuels) because coal, oil, and natural gas consumption continue to increase year after year. If eco nuts like you actually wanted to “decarbonize” the economy, then a deregulation of and transition to nuclear fission would achieve that far faster.

China just took AI infrastructure underwater. The country has reportedly launched a wind-powered underwater data center near Shanghai, designed to cool AI servers using seawater instead of traditional cooling systems 🌊🤖 Around 2,000 servers are said to be sealed inside submarine-grade modules, helping reduce land use, water consumption, and cooling energy. The project is powered by offshore wind and built for AI workloads, big data, and large-scale computing. Why it matters? AI is creating massive demand for electricity, cooling, and infrastructure. If underwater data centers prove reliable, they could become a new way to scale AI while using less energy. But the challenge is huge: corrosion, maintenance, sea conditions, and long-term reliability still need to be proven.
