Voters Supported Every Single Anti-Data Center Proposal in America, Except One
Voters across the US have sent data center developers packing, in a bruising defeat for the tech lobby across local and state battlegrounds.
The midterm elections on Tuesday saw 41 anti-data center ballot measures go up for a vote across 10 states, a blend of moratoriums on new developments and measures meant to clear the way for further data center expansion. The results were nearly total: after the dust settled, only a single measure’s outcome was favorable to the AI industry, CNBC reported.
By itself, the state of Ohio accounted for 21 of the proposals, every single one of which saw voters reject any advances from the data center lobby. The lone exception to the 41 ballot measures came from Harwood, North Dakota, where citizens voted “no” to adding an additional review stage to data center zoning procedures.
Candidates who embraced an anti-data center message also far outperformed their opponents. As CNN observed, Democrats picked up gubernatorial seats in Nevada, Ohio, Texas, and Georgia by running candidates who were outspoken against the unpopular facilities.
That said, there are signs that rhetoric alone wasn’t enough to win the day. Anti-data center messaging failed to secure Republican wins for figures like Texas gubernatorial incumbent Greg Abbott, for example, who had recently flip-flopped away from a pro-data center message after he saw which way the wind was blowing over the summer. In other words, it seems voters didn’t embrace politicians who turned against data centers at a convenient moment, but instead chose candidates they viewed as having a modicum of integrity when it comes to standing up to the big tech lobby.
In all, the election results are an absolutely crushing rout for tech industry executives, who have spent an astonishing amount of money attempting to influence the 2026 US midterm elections on both sides of the aisle. Elon Musk alone spent nearly $450 million trying to boost Republican efforts, a maneuver which backfired spectacularly.
According to a CNBC voter exit poll, 56 percent of voters said data centers were a “crucial” or “major” factor influencing their ballot choices. Given that the Democratic party is viewed as generally more adversarial to big tech — even as key party figures receive major contributions from controversial tech executives — it’s fair to say the data center backlash was a huge liability for Republicans.
“The revolt against data centers was one of the top issues of the 2026 election,” Texas Democrat representative Greg Casar said in a statement reported by CNBC. “And in a few years we will look back on it as just the early tremor of a much bigger AI earthquake upending American politics.”
With no electoral path forward for big tech’s data center agenda, we can expect to see developers embrace more legal loopholes and push into communities less capable of standing up for themselves in the months and years to come.

A WoW Forever Player Has Already Hit Level 60
World of Warcraft Forever is all about taking your time and exploring the world, rather than rushing to the endgame. But, despite the Forever team’s insistence on taking your time and making friends, a WoW Forever player has already hit level 60.
Team JokerD, led by the eponymous streamer was the first team of characters to hit level 60, and the team was made up entirely of Undead characters and one Troll. The Undead race was important there, because Blizzard changed the Cannibalize ability to help you regenerate mana, which meant there was little to no downtime between massive pulls. I spent some time watching the streams of these speedrunners, and they’d gather entire groups of mobs to nuke them down with AoE abilities.
JokerD’s claim to fame was being the world’s first level 60 when World of Warcraft Classic launched back in 2019, so it’s not super suprising that his team was the first to hit max level in Forever. There was plenty of competition this time around, but JokerD’s team was pretty far ahead of the fray throughout the entire race. Even at the time of writing, the second place character who’s not part of JokerD’s team is Ksuper Worldfirst, who is still level 53.
However, while it’s cool that these players have been able to hit max level already, there’s not much of a reason to rush to endgame right now. The first raids, Barrow Deeps, Hyjal Summit and Onyxia’s Lair, don’t open until December 9, so players hitting level cap this weekend might find it hard to find what they should do next.
When I interviewed WoW Forever principal game designer Kris Zierhut, he made it pretty clear that Blizzard intends players to level multiple characters, and reinforced that leveling is a major part of the game. So, if you do manage to make it to level 60 super early and you run out of content before raids open, it might be worth it to start another character and take a different path to max level.
WoW Forever also had an extremely smooth launch, and was largely free of any major server problems. But, then again, Blizzard later came out and bragged that the game was running on more than 200TB of RAM, so it’d be a little concerning if the servers still buckled under the weight of players trying to log in.

Alvin Elchico feeling relieved nang matanggap na ang P20k sa e-wallet account
NAIBALIK na ang halagang P20,000 ng TV Patrol news anchor na si Alvin Elchico nang magkaroon ng problema sa Instapay nitong Huwebes ng hapon.
Base sa video post ni Alvin “Nag-online transfer ako mula sa BPI account ko papunta sa GCash at parati ko namang ginagawa ‘yun nasa favorites ko nan ga ‘yung g-cash, eh.
“So, nagtransfer ako kasi may babayaran akong utang saka may bills na kailangang bayaran, so, kampante naman ako kasi parati ko namang ginagawa aba hindi pumasok sa g-cash account ko kaya tumawag agad ako sa friendship sa BPI nakipag-coordinate agad ako.
“Sabi ng BPI hindi sa kanila ang problema tama naman kasi na-deduct sa account ko, eh. Sa g-cash naman hindi rind aw sa kanila baka ro’n sa Instapay. Ang tanong papaano na? ‘Yun na lang ang last na pera mo, ‘yung 20,000? Mag-weekend pa anong gagawin?
Baka Bet Mo: News anchor Alvin Elchico binarag ng Gen Z dahil sa ‘bembang’
View this post on Instagram“Nag-check ako sa social media at ang dami ring palang nagtatanong kung anong nangyari at kung may development na as early as November 2 na may problema na sa Instapay saka wala namang advise sa BPI na huwag munang mag-transfer kasi may problema ang Instapay.
“Siyempre may mga tanong tayo, paano kung ‘yan na lang ang natira mong pera at due date mo na at may emergency, may kailangang bayaran? Puwede mo bang sabihin sa Meralco na, ‘teka muna may problema sa Instapay saka na ako magbabayad.’
“Then, sino ang nagre-regulate kung hindi kasalanan ng BPI, hindi ng GCcash? Sino ang nagre-regulate sa Instapay, meron ba?”
Bukod dito ay nabanggit din ng news anchor kung anong oras ba ang reasonable na downtime, isang araw, dalawang araw o isang linggo?
“Kasi natengga ‘yung pera, nagpo-float ‘yung pera ng consumer sa inyo siyempre pinaghirapan ‘yun, eh. Kaya tayo ay umasa na sana po ma-resolve po agad hindi lang ako para sa lahat ito. May isa pa naman akong account pero hindi na ako mag-online transfer, mag cash out na lang ako (bank),” sabi pa ni Alvin.
Wala pang 24 oras ay naibalik na kay Alvin ang nawawalang 20k nito.
“May update! Aba’y talaga naman may update tayo tungkol sa nag-float na twenty thousand natin na sinend sa GCcash from my BPI account, as of 2PM (Friday). Thank you, Lord, maraming maraming salamat po sa lahat ng nag-coordinate sa at sa GCcash at naibalik na po hindi naman umabot ng 24 hours mahirap po kasi kung weekend maghihintay ng Lunes, kaya maraming salamat po,” kuwento ni Alvin sa kanyang video post.
Marami kaming nabasa sa comments section ng news anchor na maraming ganu’n kaso at matagal bago ito maayos at complicated daw kung magkaproblem sa online electronic transferring at dapat talagang mag ingat pag ginagamit ang G-Cash and Maya

Super Mario powers up VivoCity’s holiday retail
A green warp pipe, a stack of gold coins and a familiar red cap are enough to make a place feel like a level from a Mario game. You do not need to know every Nintendo title to understand the invitation: walk around, look for recognizable details and discover what is around the next corner. That simple sense of play is about to become part of a Christmas shopping trip in Singapore.
At VivoCity, a new collaboration with Nintendo will turn the mall’s outdoor spaces and indoor retail areas into a Super Mario holiday setting. In a November 6 announcement, Nintendo outlined six festive zones and a giant Mario centerpiece, alongside game demos, a merchandise store and character appearances planned between November 13 and December 27, 2026. It is an advance campaign announcement, not a report of the event already taking place.

Mario’s visual language is unusually easy to translate into a place people can walk through. Oversized warp pipes, question-mark blocks and coins work as recognizable gaming references, but they also make sense as holiday decorations for shoppers who may have never picked up a controller. A family can stop for a photo while a longtime player can recognize the details from the games.
That matters because an entertainment collaboration at a shopping mall has to serve more than one audience. Existing fans need something more distinctive than a character image printed on a banner. Casual visitors need to understand what they can actually do. Here, the physical world and the game world meet at the same point: a destination worth exploring.
The timing helps the concept. A festive shopping trip already involves wandering between stores, discovering gift ideas and finding a place to spend time with friends or family. VivoCity is placing a familiar adventure structure around that routine rather than asking people to learn a new one. Whether shoppers arrive for Nintendo or simply encounter the display, the activation gives the mall a shared visual theme.
MINISO turns Zootopia 2 into a global pop-up playground for fans and Gen Z shoppers
MINISO turns Zootopia 2 into a traveling fan experience across Asia and North America. Here’s what it reveals about experiential marketing.
Six holiday zones turn game cues into photo moments
The planned centerpiece is a 10-metre-tall Mario inflatable emerging from a large green warp pipe at the Outdoor Plaza. Around it, six discovery zones are expected to use oversized pipes, character displays, illuminated installations and other motifs from Super Mario.
10 metres tall is the announced height of the Mario centerpiece, with six themed zones planned for the event, according to Nintendo.
The displays are scheduled to open in phases from November 13. Snowfall sessions are also planned on Tuesdays through Sundays, at 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. Together, the zones and timed effects give visitors several reasons to pause rather than treating the decorations as a single backdrop.

The crucial distinction is between a display people glance at and a space they can explore. A large centerpiece may create the first impression. The smaller discoveries, scheduled activities and places to photograph are what can extend a visit. That is a design proposition, not evidence that shoppers will spend more or that the event has already attracted crowds.
Play, collectibles and purchase rewards share one itinerary
Nintendo’s presence will continue indoors. A pop-up store is planned for VivoCity’s Central Court from December 1 to 27, stocking merchandise from Japan, Singapore-exclusive T-shirt designs and festive Mario-themed plush toys. The store provides a direct route from the familiar characters in the decorations to merchandise visitors can take home.
There is also a way to participate without buying an item. Nintendo Switch 2 demos are scheduled from November 20 to December 27, and Mario Kart World Challenge sessions are planned for December 5, 6, 19 and 20. Nintendo says admission to those gaming sessions will be free. For someone curious about a game or a parent accompanying a child, that makes the collaboration more than a shopping promotion.

Mario and Luigi meet-and-greet sessions are planned across three December weekends. Passes will be tied to qualifying same-day receipts, while other rewards include a Super Mario eco bag set and an additional voucher for eligible VivoRewards Gold members. Complimentary gift-tag stamping will offer another small, themed activity.
These activities address different reasons for visiting. A fan might want merchandise; a family might want a character photo; a curious player might stop for a game demo. Putting them in one mall campaign creates multiple entry points into the same holiday world. The commercial test will be whether those experiences ultimately benefit retailers, something the announcement does not yet measure.
VivoCity keeps building entertainment worlds
This is not VivoCity’s first attempt to make entertainment part of a trip to the mall. Earlier in 2026, it worked with Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story 5 on an outdoor-plaza experience featuring oversized character installations and themed activities. The Nintendo collaboration shifts the reference from a film franchise to a game world, but both use recognizable intellectual property as a reason to explore a physical retail destination.
The new campaign also falls in VivoCity’s twentieth anniversary year. The mall’s anniversary programme already involves special collaborations, deals and themed activities. A major festive installation fits that ongoing pattern instead of standing alone as an isolated decoration.
Gwen Au, vice president of marketing communications at MPACT Property Management, said the collaboration was intended to “give everyone more reasons to celebrate together.” That is an ambition, not a proven result. Its significance lies in the mix of shared entertainment, retail rewards and playable experiences that the partners have chosen.
The approach also resembles how character-led pop-ups have become a retail format in their own right. MINISO, for instance, has used Zootopia 2 merchandise and themed spaces to move a film franchise into stores. VivoCity’s version is different because the mall brings together multiple merchants and visitor activities, not just one retailer’s own merchandise.
What marketers can learn from the holiday power-up
The interesting part of this campaign is not simply that a big Nintendo character will appear in a shopping mall. It is the attempt to turn a known game world into a series of reasons to visit, linger and return, while connecting those experiences to ordinary holiday shopping.
- Make a character useful beyond recognition. A photo centerpiece creates a familiar first impression, but demos, meet-and-greets and hands-on activities can give people a way to engage with the world behind the character. The best design question is what visitors can do, not only what they can see.
- Give different fans different ways in. Someone looking for a collectible does not have the same motivation as someone trying a console game or taking children to an event. Separating these experiences across dates and formats lets the campaign serve several visitor groups without pretending they all behave alike.
- Keep shopping incentives visible but secondary to the experience. Receipt-linked rewards make the commercial purpose clear. By also offering demos and free gift-tag activities, the programme avoids making every interaction depend on an immediate purchase. Marketers should measure visitor activity and retailer results separately rather than treating the presence of a crowd as proof of sales.
- Build continuity across campaigns. The earlier Toy Story activation and the new Nintendo takeover point to a repeatable pattern for the venue. If audiences come to expect new entertainment worlds at different moments of the year, the mall has a potential programming advantage. That expectation still needs evidence from future visits and retention data.
There is a useful cultural lesson here. Games often turn exploration into its own reward. The holiday campaign borrows that feeling for a place where people already wander, shop and meet others, using physical references that make sense to fans and newcomers alike.
Whether the 10-metre centerpiece attracts crowds or the pop-up drives retail spending remains to be seen after the launch. For now, the campaign offers a concrete example of how entertainment IP can shape an entire visit rather than sit on top of a seasonal promotion.

Truth Social’s Stock Price Can’t Seem to Stop Falling After Trump’s Brutal Defeat in the Midterms
After his party suffered a historic defeat in this week’s midterm elections, president Donald Trump’s Truth Social is following suit.
Shares of the social media platform’s parent company, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), hit an all-time low after Trump’s candidate picks were roundly rejected by American voters. As it turned out, investors weren’t finished. Shares plummeted another ten percent on Thursday, compounding major losses. The stock temporarily even dropped below the $4 mark, a dismal abyss after the $80 share price the company recorded in March 2024 shortly after merging with a blank check acquisition company to go public.
Given the company’s catastrophic financials — TMTG reported a staggering $238 million loss while making less than $2 million — it’s perhaps the clearest sign yet that the venture is more an indicator of Trump’s popularity than a viable business.
Now that the president’s approval rating is at a record low, hovering at just 33 percent as his party gets shellacked nationally, it’s no wonder his social media play isn’t faring much better.
As it became clear that it wasn’t picking up much actual market share as a Twitter clone, the company made various efforts to pivot to everything from prediction markets to a war chest of rapidly depreciating Bitcoins. It even merged with a nuclear fusion company this year. But none of those efforts have gained any visible ground.
Worse yet, some of the president’s most loyal supporters — who agreed to lend his firm money despite it incurring massive losses — feel disillusioned. Investor and oil and gas engineer Chad Nedohin told the New York Times that he feels betrayed, claiming that TMTG strayed too far from its purported mission of promoting free speech.
He’s since sold most of his shares.
“The early shareholders did the right thing for the right reason, but it is devastating that Trump is not the person we thought,” he told the newspaper.
