I'm at one week, and still dragging. Such a slow and long recovery.
Tested negative for both flu and covid... but who knows anymore. Excited to not be congested, and be able to breathe again someday...
Who else is feeling it?
I know there are many roles and paths within this career... I'm just curious what made you turn to it?
Was it a career change?
Was it a recommendation from someone you knew?
Were you already in the medical field?
Had you been working toward it since college?
What enticed you about it?
Do you enjoy it, or are satisfied in it?
(I've been an EMT in a 911 system, and am working toward a bachelors currently. Exploring options for the future... Thanks in advance)
25m here... I keep seeing news articles and youtube segments on how our generation has a declining interest in having kids. Despite this, I've never met anyone socially, or at work that has this mindset. I'm always the only one who doesn't want kids and have to defend myself (for a variety of reasons).
Do you want kids? Curious what the real census is on this... (no right or wrong answer)
I’d appreciate hearing how you did it, or are doing it now…
Working as an EMT in the 911 system now, with the goal to soon go to medic school. Wondering if most do it while working full time as well? How many days a week was your program? How did you make your schedule work?
Unfortunately rent and other bills don’t allow me to change my work schedule too much. Just wanting to hear experiences and tips. Thanks!
Many investors still view VIVO as a small renewable energy company, but the company is rapidly transitioning into an AI infrastructure business centered around data centers and power assets.
The centerpiece of this transition is the acquisition of the 41.5MW Mo i Rana data center in Norway, which closed earlier this year. The facility is already operational and powered entirely by hydroelectric energy with electricity costs reportedly below $0.035/kWh, among the lowest in Europe for AI compute infrastructure.
This week is potentially the biggest catalyst in the company's history.
Vivo previously announced it had completed a competitive bidding process and shortlisted AI operator tenants after receiving multiple proposals that management described as stronger than expected. The company targeted completion of a lease agreement by the end of June.
A signed tenant would effectively validate Vivo's transition from:
Management has stated that leasing the site to AI operators on 10+ year agreements could create materially more shareholder value than simply selling the asset, even after reportedly receiving acquisition offers above what Vivo paid for the facility.
The AI industry currently faces one major bottleneck: power availability.
Mo i Rana offers:
The upcoming lease announcement is less about one customer and more about proving that Vivo can successfully become an AI infrastructure landlord.
If the company secures a major tenant, investors may begin valuing VIVO more like an AI infrastructure company rather than a legacy clean energy microcap. The market has already seen examples of large valuation expansions for companies controlling scarce AI power and data center assets.
Bottom line: The tenant announcement isn't just another contract announcement. It is potentially the event that confirms whether VIVO has successfully transformed itself into an AI infrastructure company.

25 yrs old... I just wanted to say thanks to this group for the support in questions and comments I've had leading up to my diagnosis. Once I discovered this subreddit, the people on here felt more relatable and like me than anyone I had met in person before, leading to me wanting to know for certain.
For me, it's been extremely relieving knowing that I don't need to feel like I need to "fight" myself, or change who I am to fit into the mold of others. I know my limits and can now accept who I am and learn to love myself now. I'm sure all of you felt similarly. I feel like I can live life being proud of who I am, knowing that nothing is "wrong" with me either. My mind just processes the world differently.
I hope we all can be proud of who we are, because there's nothing wrong with the way we are.
Are all Subarus considered to be under this term? Or is it a specific model? I’ve never understood it completely…
Looking at getting a Subaru…
VivoPower (NASDAQ: VIVO) is starting to look less like a legacy clean-energy microcap and more like an AI infrastructure turnaround story. The company’s biggest near-term asset is its newly acquired 41.5MW operational data center in Mo i Rana, Norway, powered by 100% renewable hydroelectric energy at reported power costs below $0.035/kWh. That matters because AI data centers are extremely power-hungry, and cheap, renewable, reliable power is one of the hardest parts of the AI infrastructure equation.
June 30th is the key catalyst. VivoPower has already completed a competitive tenant selection process and shortlisted AI operator tenants. The company said it is targeting final agreement by June 30, 2026. For investors, that date matters because a signed tenant deal would move this from “AI infrastructure potential” to a more concrete long-term leasing story. Management has said new AI tenant agreements are expected to improve economics beyond the site’s current annualized $31M revenue and $10M EBITDA profile.
The bull case is simple: VivoPower bought a real, operating energy/data-center asset at a time when AI operators are aggressively looking for power-backed compute locations. The company says it even received unsolicited acquisition offers for the asset at a premium, but rejected them in favor of pursuing 10+ year AI leases, which suggests management believes the long-term leasing value is higher than a quick flip.
The future outlook also looks interesting because this is not capped at 41.5MW. VivoPower says the site has an additional ~40MW expansion pathway that could potentially be energized within 18–24 months, subject to regulatory approval. If achieved, that would bring the site to 80MW+ total capacity, giving the company a much larger platform for AI/data-center revenue.
Another under-the-radar part of the story is operational leverage. VivoPower also announced a targeted $1.9M annualized EBITDA uplift from enrolling the Norway data center into Statnett reserve/demand-response markets, with no incremental capex or opex required, expected to benefit FY2027. That is not the main catalyst, but it supports the idea that the asset can produce value from both data-center leasing and grid flexibility.
Why it looks good: VIVO has a near-term dated catalyst, an already operating 41.5MW asset, cheap renewable power, current EBITDA contribution, possible improved economics from AI tenants, and a path to 80MW+ capacity. If the June 30 agreement lands with strong terms, investors may start valuing VivoPower more like an AI infrastructure/data-center platform rather than just a small clean-energy company.
Main risks: June 30 is a target, not a guarantee. Tenant terms could disappoint, expansion requires approvals, and VIVO is still a high-risk small-cap with financing, execution, dilution, and volatility risk. But as a catalyst setup, the stock has a clear event investors are watching.
Not financial advice.
VivoPower (NASDAQ: VIVO) is a small-cap company pivoting hard into sovereign AI/data-center infrastructure. The key asset is its 41.5MW operational AI data center in Mo i Rana, Norway, powered by 100% renewable hydroelectric energy with reported power costs below $0.035/kWh. The company says this asset already supports about $31M annual revenue and $10M EBITDA on a pro forma basis.
The upcoming catalyst is expected by June 30, 2026, when VivoPower is targeting a finalized agreement with selected AI operator tenant(s) after receiving multiple lease bids. If signed, management says the new tenant deal could improve the economics beyond the current revenue/EBITDA profile.
The bigger upside angle is capacity expansion: the Norway site is currently 41.5MW, with an additional ~40MW potentially energizable within 18–24 months, subject to regulatory approval. That would put the site on a pathway to 80MW+ total capacity, which is why the end-of-month tenant update could be important for the stock.
Not financial advice — high-risk small-cap, but the June 30 tenant catalyst is the near-term event to watch.
I have my psychologist evaluation tomorrow... but can't help but wonder at what point to tell my future partner about my autism when I get the chance to date again someday. I know the right person will love you for who you are, regardless. I'm just curious to hear from others on this.
When did you share about your diagnosis, or at what stage in your relationship?
Thank you
Has anyone had experience getting to the trailhead at all, or recently? I drive a Honda Civic, and am wondering if it’s something I’ll be able to drive to with a smaller car, given it’s not paved? Was it rough or rocky? Making the trip up there at the end of this month…
Thanks
I feel like I go through phases where I get so excited and constantly am thinking, learning, talking about a certain activity, subject, or topic nonstop... whatever it may be. Right now mine is National Parks.
Does anyone else get this way about things?
VivoPower $4.50/share (NASDAQ: VIVO) looks like a company in the middle of a major business shift. Historically, VIVO was more of a renewable energy / EV-adjacent company, but the newer thesis is centered around renewable-powered AI data center infrastructure.
The key asset is its Norway data center, which the company says has 41.5MW operational capacity, with potential for another 40MW expansion subject to approval. Vivo has also cited roughly $31M in annual revenue and $10M in annual EBITDA on a pro forma basis from the Norway acquisition.
The upcoming catalyst is the expected tenant announcement for the Norway AI data center. VivoPower previously said it had shortlisted AI operator tenants after receiving multiple bids, with a target to finalize a transaction by June 30, 2026.
The reason this could matter for the stock is simple: if the tenant deal confirms stronger economics than the current baseline, it could validate the company’s pivot into AI infrastructure. On top of that, VIVO has had high short interest, so strong confirmed news could potentially force short covering and create a larger upswing.
That said, the end of the month will be interesting. Companies have already shown interest in the data center lease. Supposedly for 10yr lease agreements. Big things coming with VIVO.
Everyone, please do yourself a favor and watch this trailer for "gen ATLAS". The audio, visuals, emotion, and mystery of this new open world game. Unknown when the release date will be... Looks amazing. This is why single player story mode games need to exist. Curious to hear other reactions

As a single male, I don't have a "helper" for this sort of thing... I'm on my own. Any other singles have a preferred method of back shaving? What do you use? It's just always been a struggle, as I've always been a hair-free kind of guy. Any tips are helpful
Thanks
Strong outlook for CIFR.
As the race for greater data center volume increases, so does the demand. Bitcoin mining companies such as this one are just in the first phase of that transition. Going to only grow from here! CIFR
Wondering if when I buy my Mac Mini, if not having Touch ID is a big deal or not? Really not trying to spend $200 on a magic keyboard all because of one key. Curious if others just use regular keyboards and aren't too bothered by it. Thanks
CIFR if you're looking for a new entry point into the AI hyperscaling race
Only up from here!
