What the fuck are you talking about - have you seen what data centres are doing in the West? Do you want more of that?

I have not fully seen or appreciated most of the negativity. Obviously there are exceptions to that but in my eyes it has largely exposed how vulnerable the west is due to poor infrastructure constructs and a lack of building out generation and transmission.

Nope.

We have exported production to China in many things, we forget that we had dark satanic mills of our own.

To be honest, I’m sort of annoyed that the datacenter around the corner from my home closed. It was a five minute walk on 3rd street and I know of it because we used to have so many cages there 15 years ago. Now I have to drive to Fremont.

What are data centers doing? I'd never heard of anybody having had a problem with them until about two months ago.
