I don't know, he says like, 6 words total?  Going to have to hear more, but honestly I don't care that much.   There was no way we were going to get Nintendos over-the-top sounding Mario voice.  We just grew up with it so it's stuck in our heads.

2 hours of Charles Martinet's Mario voice would get annoying very fast. I much prefer the New York accent like he had in the old cartoons and it seems Chris is going that route.

It's such a shame Bob Hoskins isn't with us anymore... He would have been a natural to do Mario's voice...  But Chris Pratt? Totally not the right voice for Mario... It doesn't have to be faux-Italian... But it SHOULD be more... "aged"... If you know what I mean... Gruffer.. More gravelly and at least SOME hint of Bronx/Italian accent...

    • Microsoft Opens Fairwater: Wisconsin AI Campus Runs as One Supercomputer via 800G Ethernet

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
