A large data center in South Memphis, Tennessee operated by Elon Musk’s xAI, a division of SpaceX, is powered by natural gas, and has drawn heavy criticism for allegedly increasing nitrogen oxide air pollution. “I can’t breathe at home, it smells like gas outside,” one resident of the area said at a public hearing last year, according to Politico, adding, “How come I can’t breathe at home and y’all get to breathe at home?”

Kill them all.

I don't care if you interpret that as sabotaging data centers, or the guillotine, either works for me.

There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart that you can't take part! You can't even passively take part! And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus -- and you've got to make it stop! And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it -- that unless you're free the machine will be prevented from working at all!!

Mario Savio

Luigi already set up the board!
