    we willingly handed over the keys to the city

    I’ve been screaming that the power and water and cost issues are failures of our local governments. No, it’s not capitalism, socialists can be bought and paid for as well. No, the feds need do nothing, city and state governments should handle their unique issues. Yes, we need to vote out or city and county councilmen who allow this horseshit.

    OK, I could easily argue for the state taxing the snot out of these data centers. Seems a no-brainer.

      seems like this community really doesn’t like hearing the truth that changing these things are down to their action or inaction as individuals and a group. having a victim complex feels really popular nowadays.

      wow, who could’ve predicted that sitting and consuming tiktok slop brainrot for 15 years rendered most people dumb as rocks??
