Not the same type of data centre.
The majority of datacenters and datacenter power consumption are not for AI. Before AI no one cared about datacenters. Still no one cares about datacenters that already existed and make up the majority of datacenters. I don't understand it. Is this just manufactured outrage?
People hate data centers because they are being forced into our communities without our consent. Consent. Consent.consent
Most datacenters are not in urban communities they are in industrial zones.
You also don't need the consent of other people to build things on land you own. Get out of here with this shit.
C'mon bro put 2 and 2 together, you can do it
What do you want me to put together? Why don't you just come out and say what you mean instead of beating around the bush?
