Good luck with any kind of coherent ecosystem and support. Also, if you're in the U.S., there is a good chance you'll get hit with tariffs which would wipe out any potential value. I'd much rather stick with nVidia that has an ecosystem (even Apple for that matter), than touch a system like this off of Alibaba.

Have you ever been to Oklahoma City yourself. It is not "nuked" by tornadoes all the time like you imply. We've had a couple large ones, and all of you outside idiots think they happen daily. Most tornadoes are small, most Oklahomans have never seen one in their lives. Every city has its own natural disasters. For the record, Oklahoma has the largest casino in the world (https://www.gambling.com/us/online-casinos/strategy/the-7-la...) and that is in freaking Thackerville.

I'm not sure a lot of you have ever been to Oklahoma City or if you have, even recently. Tulsa is not the premier city in Oklahoma anymore and hasn't been for close to 2 decades. While this is a ridiculously tall proposed structure, Oklahoma City is growing fast and a lot of the residential domiciles in that area are full. 1,776 (a funny number) of housing isn't that much when we have entire subdivisions with 500 - 2000 houses going up all over the city at a constant rate. Will this be built, probably not. Will the smaller towers be built, quite possibly. I drive by the proposed spot often and it could support some of the smaller towers etc.

This doesn't pass the BS test, especially if you are local. I have moved across town; with a family and a day job, in around 15 days, with most of the move taking place the first 7. Out of town, I can see 30 - 45. It would require planning and a UHaul (if within 250 miles) and a semi-truck moving company if further out than that. It literally just takes a bit of planning and follow through.

I think you actually have hit the proverbial nail with the hammer. I've seen firsthand the terrible talent pool, at least here in the south-west US. We've done ourselves a disservice trying to get everyone and their brother to become a programmer because...economy! and more accurately, I want more money.
