This entire article is hilarious and anti-trans people are fighting in the comments about whether it's deliberately stupid to make them look bad

The myth about data centers and water is incredibly sticky for some reason. You can present hard numbers and it just doesn't penetrate. I've tried gently explaining it to people IRL and they look at you like you're a reality-denying kook. They believe the water thing *so hard*.

Both of these people would get insanely offended if you starting talking about 'real Americans' vs 'immigrant Americans' but for some reason being from Ohio and moving to New York is a form of original sin that must be cleansed with humiliation rituals.

It's genuinely sad that bribing and sucking up to the President is now just considered a matter-of-course way to get him to do what your company wants. It's all in the open now.

I'm still amazed there was an entire camp of people who thought Trump would be a pro-innovation president.

Even in a dry state like CA, focusing on data centers in the water debate is borderline delusional thinking. Alfalfa farming is less than 0.1 % of CA's GDP and yet consumers 14% of all its water. Don't grow livestock feed in the desert!
