What the fuck do data centers do for the economy?

@SmidgePierce @nprofile1q... they get built (construction), they generate compute (AI services). that's a big chunk of the current economy, fake and gay as it is 🤷‍♂️

have you seen the data collected just for sound pollution? the sub sonic noise is louder than standing next to a jet engine, everyone is a big 'health expert' and doesn't want to even get into that s...

@dictatordave @nprofile1q... what about a data center is any different than other industrial builds?

all I've seen cited is generators and HVAC...literally every big industrial build has similar noise.

I really don't have a dog in the fight one way or another but it does represent a significant portion of new construction, creeping toward $50 billion annualized spending earlier this year and it's almost half of all new private office construction

@dictatordave @nprofile1q... yeah you could be right 🤷‍♂️ I think a rural setting for them is not really bright. There are plenty of nightmare industrial blight zones in cities that they could be jammed into that wouldn't rock anyone's boat. The nice rural countryside should definitely remain peaceful and rural.

Rural governments in those cases likely looking for kickbacks against the will of their constituents.

Is it just me or were all these people just fine with data centers until about a year ago? What changed?

@nprofile1q... foreign influence campaign to get our own people to lobby/protest against literally the biggest source of potential domestic economic growth for the foreseeable decade.

Seriously, we build no factories, we make no goods...almost 75% of our GDP is in services (real estate, finance, entertainment, etc) only like 15% is physical goods. Data centers are like, the only thing being built here so opposing them will grind our economy further to a halt.
