Datacenters have evolved into this gigantic nuisance that are sucking up a town's water and electricity, emitting a ton of pollution, causing people's utility bills to skyrocket, and all sorts of other problems. I don't think people who are against this issue are "bootlickers". More like people who have at least a shred of empathy. |

Last I was using data centers directly there was no water use, though I know now that many use water for cooling and don’t bother with a closed system because water is cheaper than the power. (Exception being Elon and gas turbines for data centers of his but that’s something you get away with doing to Texans).
I don’t get why utility bills go up when the DC should pay for the upgrades it needs for power itself.
I don’t get why people would be against them. For that matter, I don’t understand why people would be for them.
I spent many many hours in my local DC in downtown LA and you would never know it was there except the office building windows were not open to see inside.
