The governor-elect of Texas, Gina Hinojosa, has explicitly said that all currently permitted datacenters in Texas will be allowed to finish construction. This essentially covers all of the 2027 and likely well into 2028. She is going to pass laws that ensure that all *newly* permitted datacenters going forward for delivery in 2028/2029 will pay taxes, commit to no increase in power prices for consumers, don’t impact water availability for people, be constructed with union labor and give “Texans a seat at the table.” Sounds reasonable. She doesn’t want to lose a lot of good blue collar jobs and property taxes for small towns in rural Texas. Datacenter commentary starts at 6:30 in this interview. Also attaching her official campaign position from her website in the next post. Sidenote: After watching a bunch of her speeches and interviews, I do think she is a political talent and probably has a future in national politics. piped.video/D-T6H3b8ZeE?is=mEWu…

Soccer Sheet can exclusively report that with tonight’s win, the Carolina Ascent have clinched a USL Super League playoff spot for the third consecutive season. Though the league is yet to make it official, there is no scenario in which more than three teams can tie or surpass Carolina’s 26 points.

As Soccer Sheet first reported on Sunday morning, the Ascent have clinched a spot in the Super League Playoffs. The Ascent are on track to win their second Players’ Shield, and they’ve already been to a cup final this calendar year. Huge year for the Memorial Stadium teams.

Millions of Android TV boxes left the factory already backdoored and sold to criminals. Google just exposed that Shenzhen manufacturer Videostrong deliberately pre-installed a persistent backdoor into more than 1.3 million Android TV boxes, including MECOOL models. Partners saw roughly 1.47 million infected devices across 206 models in 170+ countries. It sold access to criminals who used the devices as residential proxies, ran ad fraud, and stole data, all without owners knowing. The malware runs with system privileges, can silently install apps, disable Google Play Protect, and reinstalls itself from a protected partition if you delete it. Google and partners took down the command servers (cutting off access to at least 10 million more devices) and permanently banned Videostrong from certified Android. The company had slipped the malware past testing by activating it after first boot. Servers are offline, but the firmware backdoor is still on the devices already sold. Simple deletion will not fix it. When a certified maker ships malware from the factory into living rooms across 170+ countries, cheap streaming boxes can quietly turn your home internet into someone else’s tool.
