Red Beacon Daily News 06.04.26 What are Data Centers Really for?

Spreadbeacon Daily News, your home for rebellion and renaissance. Welcome in. We are brought to you by Disastercoffee dot Com. Visit disaster Coffee dot Com and Caffemate with a Purpose. We are ninety six days trapped in the quicksand of the Middle East. Yet again, it's hard for me to believe that the US has fallen into the trap. It's carried out self defense strikes on Iranian military ground control station on Kashem Island in the Strait of War Moves after Iranian forces attacked US Israeli vessels launched missiles and droned attacks toward Kuwait and Bahrain. Iran reported explosions near the island and claimed the initial strike hit one of their oil tankers. However, in the Tale of Two Wars, President Trump says negotiations are quote going very well and the Strait up moves could reopen immediately once a memorandum of understanding is signed. What's a memorandum of understanding? What is that? Rubio is made clear that sanctions stay in place until Iran is up. It's enriched uranium stockpile. That makes sense, makes good sense. But you know here we are right a sixty day seas for fire extension is still on the table. Lebanon and Israel have come to the table for a ceasefire as well. We'll just have to see how it all plays out, folks. You know, if history repeats, there are no quick wars in and out of the Middle East. Doesn't doesn't happen. This one is now. You know, ninety six days in ninety six days in the great powers and gears of war will work above your head. It works largely as a distraction from the fact that your state and local governments and federal governments have figured out a way to basically tax us all into slavery. And that truly is the issue covered up by the gas price, covered up by this price, that price. You know, if you wanted relief for the American people, then you would call and we may have to call for this ourselves as the people. You know, this is what the rebellion of rebellion and renaissance is about. They tried to tax the whiskey and people lost their minds. Right, we need a moratorium on federal taxes. One of the big stories across the nation is the corruption in these NGOs and nonprofits all over the country just getting billions of billions of dollars, buying lexuses and not doing anything. If you want to instantly, if you want to instantly find out who is running, you know, some sort of corrupt nonprofit, well, one of the best ways to do that is to stop taxing the American people for about three to five years. According to Donald Trump, we have trillions of dollars of investment coming into the country. AI is gonna make trillions of dollars. I think we're more than more than capable of simply taxing the the revenues of artificial intelligence, right, they're owed to us anyway, Stop taxing the American people as this new world forms. There's a new world for me, right, and it's one that is American dominant largely. As this new world forms, I think we take the tax burden off the people and allow them to live the lives that they deserve to live. For all the work that we do, remove that tax burden on the personal side, maybe keep sales tax or something like or or instill a flat tax, right, or do away with it all for three to five years, thereby choking the funds off to these nonprofit NGOs and you know, trimming them way way, way, way back, because you're not going to operate an artificial daycare center, education center, old folks home. You know, homeless shelter that gets funded by the government if the funding goes away, unless your heart's in it. If your heart's in it, you'll find funding, right, if it's your dream, You're not gonna go, oh well, Donald Trump's not giving me any money for my homeless shelter, so screw the homeless onto the next thing. Don't no, you'll find funding. There's plenty of money in the United States. Cut the taxes, or we may have to force a moratorium on taxi in this country. It's only fair, right, if the costs continue to rite, you can't. Things have to happen in a rebellious sense as a group, well thought out, targeted, effective, because if they don't happen that way, they'll happen anyway through violence. We can't jump to a good news story from there, but we can jump into the the eyes on AI segment. The eyes on AI segment another thing we gotta keep our eyes on. That's why you need the red vegas. You're a I assistant here. We've got a bit of a good news situation, good news, bad news situation. Now for the we always hunt MHM. We got a Chinese startup, Mini Max that just dropped the M three, an open weight frontier model that beats Claude Opus four point seven on agentic browsing benchmarks. What's that mean? Eighty three point five versus seventy nine point three while running with a massive one million token context the weights are already on, so teams can run powerful AI locally without trillion dollar cloud farms. Right now, here's my question. This is what I don't understand. Okay. Over the last three days we talked about AI tech that maybe I'm reading it wrong. Maybe I'm reading it wrong and it's not going in my head because I'm not super aisavvy, you know what I mean. People build it. I could play with it a little bit from here from time to time. I don't use it all that much. But at the same time, like some of this stuff I think sounds the way that it sounds, the tech is, so help me with this, I mean red beacon light keepers. I need your help with this. With understanding this. We all know the pace at which AI moves. Right. We talked about the nodes that can be installed on your house. It's clear that the motivation here is smaller, faster, less energy intensive, less storage intensive. Right, this is the motivation for AI. Where in the world does the massive AI data center fit in all of this? Where's it? It's got to be it has to be so nefarious. We need a reporter, You need someone who can really dig into this thing and figure out what's the real story with data centers? Why are they going up everywhere? Think about it. I mean to build anything in the age of AI. They're telling us that AI so fast, so effective, so incredible, so amazing. Right to build these sprawling camp buy that use up all this wood and drive people crazy and do all this stuff and are protested and shut down before they even break ground, which bravo America, the beautiful. How long could a data center be the best way to do it? In other words, these trillion dollar investments billion dollar investments? Right, if you combine how long is a data center going to work? How quick before artificial intelligence goes Oh, we don't need that thing because we have the Mini Max. We have uh hugging face look it up, right, we have we have AI's figured out how to micro it's itself, it's figured out, how to make it super efficients figured out? How like? What are we talking here for two years, three years, five years max, five years max. Right, a data center. You look at that gigantic thing that's proposed in your area and say, how is this big, stupid, clunky thing going to exist in five years? If AI is continually improving, it's very clear they're going to say. The tech is going to figure out, we don't need this big thing. We can do it with these materials, this way, with these this data. I'm done. What What am I missing? That's all? What am I? What am I missing? New Mali fire layers in neural nets are solving complex math equations with far greater stability, and on device image models and on device image models are now running on phones with just four billion parameters. Now I don't know what that means. That all sounds really small, like we can do things better with less. This is the direction forward, better with less? Why is the data center then? Why what is the data center doing for us? Do you know what I mean? It's not what they say it is. It's not what they say it is. And if I were you, I'd set up a little V and D match with you and your buddies and uh, you know, maybe make the castle look something like a data center and just have a fun night of rolland dice and figuring out what it might take to make one of those things inoperable. Because I don't believe they are what they say they are. This is my problem. Now. Maybe I've read one too many sci fi novels. I don't know, but to me, it just doesn't add up. There was a time when it made sense, Oh, we need all this power, all this what a all this data to run an artificial intelligence. But it's clearly going in a different direction. Clearly prepper tech. The prepper tech spotlight for today is, uh, what's this one? Prepper check one ready? That's the old one threat one solution. I actually don't have anything today, folks. So I thought i'd talked to you about putting a lighter in your bug out back. I thought i'd talk to you about uh literally light. You know why because I see a lot of guys on social media and stuff, and they're always using faraoh rods and bow drills and different fire starters and things along those lines, and I think it's important that we talk about this. The most effective firestarter tech on the planet, right the lighter by yourself. Like I've done this in the past. You can do it by yourself. A fifty pack I think it is, or like a twenty five pack of lighters, and put them everywhere. Put them in the car, put them in the bags, put them in the you know what I mean. People are gonna think you're smoking or something like that, but it doesn't matter. Put the lighters everywhere by yourself. Also, some of those really nice lighters that have the long they don't have, not the kind that have like the super long, not like the grill lighters. But we have a bunch of lighters around the house that click start and they have a little bit of a long tube on the end, you know, maybe like four inch tube something like that. By them. Buy them because everybody can light those, you know what I mean, Buy those things. You're doing. Tons of lighters come with that little metal strip on it and that thing works. Like kids have trouble starting. All my lighters have that little metal childproof strip. Now it never stopped me when I was a kid from being a pyromaniac. But the modern children, you know, what I mean, they'll give up. They're like, oh, I can't do it. You know what else is great? Two matches matches? Right, use the fire tech that your ancestors used, you know what I mean. We don't need to use the firetech that the Stone Age used. So it's not as cool as it like an automated survival AI laptop computer that can survive a nuclear bomb today, but sometimes simple and effective tech is what saves your ass. Right, it's cold, I'm wet. I need a fire. All my magical you know, firestarter stuff is wet. I can't do it. I'm not that good at it. It's not that good. You know. Pharaoh Sian rods are okay, don't get me wrong. I like them. I've started many fires with them. But if I were in trouble, right, I would throw fifteen pharaoh rods deep into the woods digging through my bag to find a lighter, right, Because the big thing is you get flame from a lighter. You can't beat instant flame. You can't beat it. When you're starting a fire. You can just shower all the sparks you want, but you can never beat instant flame. So let's get into the good news. For the day. It is good news, man, It is really cool news today that I stumbled upon by accident over at LinkedIn. I saw that our very own jb our, very own Jazzmine Beyond the who really has just been an angel for PBN in so many ways and beyond you know what I mean. I don't want to go down and let me want to embarrass her, you know what I mean, and go down the list of things that she's done for us. But it's amazing from audio to you know, it's just incredible. And she wrote a book called Oh the Dreams I Can Dream, Oh the Dreams I Can Dream. The book is out now. It is uh well, I'll read you the description. This poem is about a child's imagination and wonderful dreams they experience while sleeping. The speaker describes exciting and magical adventures such as knights, dragons, magical beans, candy clouds, and horses made of lemonade. I like that last one of the best. The poem celebrates creativity, fun and endless possibilities of dreams. It creates a joyful and playful feeling, showing how dreams can take us to amazing places while we sleep. Through the Night, available now at Amazon. It'll be linked in the show description. Oh the Dreams I Can Dream by Jasmine beyond E. This book, this book comes from a incredible place. That really the origin story of Oh the Dreams I Can Dream is one of the greatest. It is a reminder of how powerful writing can be, what writing can be. You know what a book like this can mean. And it means a lot, trust me on that. Yeah, I just I don't know. I'm very proud Jazz create a book. To write a book is hard to illustrate a book, is hard to look at that finished product and hand it off to the world with so much at time to it is. It's daring, baby, It is a daring thing, you know what I mean. It's it, That's what it is. How will it be received? Will it be? You know? And we attach, you know, if you write something with great meaning like She's done here, then you attach this whole thing to it and and then you you know, you dare put it out to the insane world. But I think it'll do great. It'll be great. It looks great. I'll be buying mine today. Of course you should buy one as well. If you have kids. If you have grandkids something along those lines. You know, it's very rare. You go to a store, you buy a kid's book. You know what I mean? You like, you don't know who the author is most of the time. Who's the author? What's the motivation? What am I going to impart on my kids with this book? You know, kids read a lot of books at school every day. You don't even know what they're reading. If I had the choice of babysitter, my kids were young, and I could just pluck someone from any part of the world and sit them down, right, Jasmine would be on the short list. I could guarantee you that. So you know, my kids. I don't know if my kids will. I might be able to convince the ten year old to read the book. But look, a lot of a lot of what we do, the choices that we make are about source now right, Source is a word. Source is a powerful word. Now, and you want to know the source. Where's your food come from? Where's your entertainment come from? Where's you know? Where's everything come from? Well, this is a kid's book written by someone who has who is a part of the PBN family, and beyond that is just an exemplary, exemplary force in the world. I've seen it with my own eyes, all right, so link in this show description. Oh the dreams I can dream Jasmine beyond the Bravo. Congratulations and well done, and thank you for being brave enough to share it with the world. It's not an easy thing, guys. You think it's easy. It's not easy at all, you know what I mean. It's a very it's a very scary thing to put something out there in the world. Ask William Shakespeare as we go out today, We're gonna read a little William Shakespeare. Gonna read a signet from William Shakespeare. Okay, this is our red beacon literary force for the day. Now, you think about Shakespeare's sonnets, and you probably think about love, right, Oh, it's going to be a gushy love, you know, when many years have carved age and to your brow or I don't know his stuff by heart very well. But son It twenty nine is a very different thing. It is Men's Mental Health month, which is why Sonate twenty nine has come up. Soign It twenty nine is page eighteen in Poems for Men, the book I released last year with Men in Mind, right. This is one of those things that I put in the book to show you, to show men in particular, but to show everyone, like there's nothing to quote Ecclesiastes, there's nothing new under the sun. Our struggles have always been the same, they are still the same. We can make believe the structure no one's ever seen before. Oh, I'm comparing myself to everyone on social media. Listen, just listen. Listen to son A twenty nine and think about it. Think about it. We look at social media. We try to make believe that now that we can see the whole world. Oh, all of a sudden, I'm comparing myself to other people. I never did that before. Right now, it could be worse, right, it could be to another degree, because it's always in your face. But make no mistake about it. Mankind at large is a beast of comparison, There's no doubt about it. That's the importance of a sonnet like this, because it's ancient's five hundred years old, right, and it's the same thing. It's the same thing when in disgrace. So this is Sonnet twenty nine William Shakespeare, when in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes, I all alone, beweep my outcast state and trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries, and look upon myself and curse my fate, wishing me like to one more rich in hope, featured like him. In other words, I want to look like him, like him with friends possessed. Right, Oh, I want a bunch of buddies, so I could post it on Instagram, desiring this man's art and that man's scope, with what I most enjoyed content, at least William. Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising. Happily, I think on thee and then my state. There are lines in here, and this part is in boldened book, by the way, and look upon myself and curse my fate. Right you look in the mirror. I'm too ugly, I'm sort I'm not this. I'm not that. Wishing to me like one more rich in hope, featured like him, like him with friends possessed. Or look at his gang. Look at his group of friends. Man, they're here, they're camping together. I wish I had friends like that, and do those things, desiring this man's art and that man's scope. But the line that I love the most in this sonet is the line of our time, and it's the line of all time, and it is with what I most enjoy, contented least, because that's it's the key. The key is you look at the Instagram, you look at the whatever TikTok, and you see people doing a thing and you say to yourself, Oh, I want to do that thing. I want to do that thing right, or maybe I should try that thing, or maybe I should do my hair this way or do whatever. When you forget that you have this list of things that you love in life, that you love to do, that you love to be a part of. But because the popular thing or the you know, the profitable thing or whatever, the now thing is what's popular and important and all that kind of stuff, you fall into that trap. Oh I need to do that. I need to do that because they're doing that. I need to do that because he's doing that. I need to do that because I need to look that way, because that's the way people are looking nowadays. One of the great freedoms of all is to be able to spend your time doing the things you truly want to be doing and rest to the world be damn, I'm telling you right now. I look at Jeff Bezos. I look at these guys with money, money, money, you know, all the money, and I go, Hm, how much of that dude's life is he enjoy Do you know what I'm saying. It's a freedom that is beyond money. It's a freedom that is beyond at almost everything. And it takes insane bravery. It takes that. It takes. One of the bravest things is when you do a thing, in my opinion, you do a thing that you know no one is going to get excited about, but you. No one is gonna like butt you. No one is good, you know what I mean. And you do that thing, and not only do you do it, but you enjoy it, and you return to it and you realize that this this is for me. There's a meme. I don't often talk about memes, but sometimes the memes are are right on the money. There's a meme that I've saved several times, and it's just a picture. It's sometimes an image, it's sometimes a video of a little boy in a field and he's just little. He's like three two or three, barely can walk through the big flowers of the field, and the meme says, he's still alive inside. You don't let him die. And everyone needs to hear that. Everyone needs to understand that. Everyone needs to know that you're fighting for that too. Right now. Because I'm such a nerd and have fed my inner child so much, I know the value in keeping him alive. But I know there are a lot of guys out there. I'll be a lot of young men too, wrapped up in hustle culture, wrapped up in this idea that they got to get to the gym and they got to get the money, and they got to do the thing, and and all of their feelings should be torched and they should be hardened and inflacable in the face of everything. Right, forgetting that to be a person is a balance, forgetting that to be a man is a balance. You know, you don't white knuckle through life. There's this, There is this, There is this false uh, this mythos, this mythology that the men came back from World War Two and were stronger and more sturdy than ever. Right, they came back from watching all their friend's body parts blown across the battlefield, bleedy, bleeding out, dying, killing, murder, the whole thing, and they came back and they just put the button down on and the tie and went to work. And you look at alcoholism and domestic violence, and you know, you understand that it's a struggle. It's a struggle, and no generation is perfect, and they dealt with their problems in different ways, but there were very real problems, you know. So don't let him die, that little boy, and you don't let him die. I'll talk to you guys tomorrow for the last Red Beacon Daily News you're gonna hear for a week. Okay, Red Beacon Daily News will be going offline for next week and we'll return the following week. So I hope you're enjoying the show. I'm having a hell of a time, tell you that much. All right, wrong outro. We will talk to you guys tomorrow. See it
