☆ The Old-School Artillery Shell Is Becoming High Tech

RAUFOSS, Norway—At a factory in rural Norway, engineers are perfecting an artillery shell they say will be able to travel many times farther than the traditional ammunition currently pounding the battlefield in Ukraine. The work is part of a broader trend among arms companies to increase the range, precision and lethality of artillery shells that have remained largely unchanged for decades.

☆ Weapons firm says it can't meet soaring demand for artillery shells because a TikTok data center is eating all the electricity

An arms manufacturer complained that TikTok's data center is using all the electricity in the region. However, in the area of Norway where Nammo operates, its defense work gets no priority over any other users of electricity. The energy company told the FT that it has no spare capacity for Nammo to hike its output as it has been promised to TikTok. It found that data centers can often require the "same amount of energy as a large town," and could account for "29% of electricity demand in Ireland by 2028." TikTok also has plans to build what will be the largest data center campus in Norway by November 2023.
