Have some self respect 🫡 space based data centers are delusional

Oh, the WAPO editorial board was great this morning: "Voters just want a better deal on data centers." Talk about self-soothing all over the opinion pages...

I don't self quotepost but that was my original reaction, Carney just wants to hawk natural gas for data centers

He doesn't care if the chatbots are good or not as long as they burn Canadian methane

This is the corruption that must be addressed immediately:

"Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, who is heavily invested in the AI industry, is leading the charge to allow tech companies to build data centers on the public lands he oversees."

The self-dealing needs to end.

5. With a managed data center, the provider controls the operations, monitoring, maintenance, security, and optimization.
6. Cloud data centers host virtualized infrastructure delivered over the internet.
7. Micro data centers are small, modular, self-contained units designed for edge computing.

Quick summary of themes for those in the fence:

-trans mc’s arc centers around gender dysphoria
-realistic look at relationships when it comes to fears of self doubt
-will they/won’t they for first half, we did but at what cost for second half
- tragedy with a good amount of hope core ✨🫶

Two things I don’t believe:

1. Husk actually doesn’t have the capacity to rig elections.

2. Hitting Russian data centers didn’t do that much.

However, he definitely does more for American than the American president does. Ukraine needs every volunteer to win their self determination.

THIS guy is among the worst. Selling off public lands, draining $ from National Parks to fund Trump self-aggrandizing projects. He needs to be hauled before a committee and eviscerated.

Why the love of Data centers is so strong.
You jacked the youths memory/video card prices through the roof.
With no end in sight
Who is jacking those prices?
Cut back on their services and problem resolved
Who amongst will self sacrifice for the greater good

Time for an education on data centers. The counties have control of permissions. We have the power over impact fees. We need to set rules that data centers are self-sustaining. That means they pay for their own power. Provide sustainability of water resources and relieve no tax subsidies or relief.

Some of tonight’s biggest losers:

Corruption

Racism

High prices and the senseless war that drives them up

ICE and the surveillance tech that powers it

Data centers

Trump and his self-dealing

Other grifty assholes like Musk and Ramaswany (and by extension, DOGE)

Data centers were on the US midterm ballot and lost big time, so OpenAI wants to call them "AI compute campuses." Also: Anthropic says self-building AI may be imminent, and Google tells schools that no AI means no Search.

1. We solve recursive self-improvement: AI picks its own research direction.
2. We understand AI less: humans need months to follow its maths solutions.
3. Robots come, maintaining data centers. Data centers run autonomously.
4. Then we control super intelligence, or we are doomed.

There are so many empty commercial sites that could be used.
I’m actually fine with data centers, as long’s as they are self sufficient. There’s no reason they can’t be setup without be resource gluttons, except that gives them higher profit margins…

White supremacy.

What got people to the polls?

Not the immigrant concentration camps.

Not the Iran war and war crimes.

Not voting rights.

Not abortion rights.

It was affordability and data centers.

Sure, whatever it takes....but it was VERY self-serving.

White people "white people-ing".
November 6, 2026 at 8:32 PM
We can absolutely agree on this. AIPAC and ICE are the same. They are servants of a fascist police state who persecute people based on their skin color and use the same tech companies that put data centers in our backyards to do it. Thanks for lacking the self awareness to compliment Jeffries on it

Vancouver gets a factory for floating wave-energy data centers
An Oregon startup that’s raised more than $300 million this year to use wave power to generate energy for artificial intelligence hubs unveiled the Southwest Washington factory Friday, where it aims to build nodes to power this new kind of renewable energy. Panthalassa — the company takes its name from the super ocean that took up most of the surface of the planet Earth 190 million years ago — hopes to seed deep oceans around the globe with self-driving buoys and then use that energy to power floating AI computation hubs. The hubs wouldn’t come with the same baggage — carbon emissions, fresh water contamination and neighborhood disruption — that have brought about a backlash against data centers on land. The investment marks the Portland-based company’s first attempt at moving from custom manufacturing to an assembly line, but while a significant investment in the region, it’s also a test of its theory that it will eventually be able to make and deploy its “nodes” at additional factories around the globe. Investors and scientists have touted ocean energy as a potential renewable energy source for years, but it’s yet to yield profits on any large scale. Oregon State University operates an...

I'd like to thank Ukraine 🇺🇦 for taking time in their busy self defense to knock out those Russian data centers to help us rout the GOP.

Why can't tech bros design a self sustaining center? They're in too much of a rush to profit before sugar daddy is gone. Mfg plants are sitting & rotting countrywide & data centers will be abandoned too. They'll sit & rot along with the communities, home values, jobs & futures of families destroyed.

I LOVE THIS WOMAN!

This is perhaps the most passionate yet clear-headed, direct, self-evident and ultimately compelling argument I have seen against data centers.

Yet even such an articulately delivered 2x4-upside-the-head like this will not dissuade Big Tech.

We need 1000s more like her.
This is the best anti Datacenter speech I've ever seen. ✊🏻

@davidgerard

The process engine engineer, I like to watch, Mide, who elegantly dismantles AI data center build timelines and compute nonsense had some very choice remarks about AI taking over that has a lot to do with self replicating data centers.

He has field experience with chemical plant […]

The data center fossil fuel doom loop is unnecessary, expensive, inefficient, wasteful, dumb, and, ultimately, self defeating.

It’s lose lose. And, yet, the win win of better approaches just sits there for the taking.

We can do better. We must.

US data centers could wipe out 15 years' worth of progress in greenhouse gas emissions, report claims — buildouts could emit as much carbon dioxide as all of Mexico
The path to AI gold is paved with natural gas turbines.
