someone will make a bunch of money on this, then the datacenters will be cancelled anyway :)

the bubble will pop eventually

Tonight would be great! 😃




if you are in the market to build a datacenter, you should probably build out as near to a reliable power source to begin with. While I see some promise in smaller local models for various purposes, I do not see any benefit of anything that would require one new data center, let alone what ever they have “planned”.

Also a promise involving Trump is worth about as much as a backed up sewer.


Data centers are a plague on this country.

Plague on every country, comrade.
