They do realize how hot it is in Phoenix? Jeez
Seriously, though. It’s a data center. It could be built pretty much anywhere.
When you’re building a data center, you know it’s going to need massive amounts of cooling. And for that cooling, it’s going to need massive amounts of water.
So why the ever-loving fuck would you build one in the middle of a very hot desert area? It makes cooling much more difficult, and water is difficult to get there. What the fuck is wrong in the heads of these people building data centers?
Bribe lawmakers to give you all the water you need for free, and stick the neighbors with the bill.
Private profits at public expense is crony capitalism 101.
Four degrees plus climate change. Either you move to a saner place, or you start working in the ACinstallation or sales field
funnily enough, my dad lives in Phoenix, and is about to finish HVAC school.
Pretty sure the plan is to use them to spy on everyone, then eventually phase them into detention centers without having any additional publicity.
It probably won’t be at once, and for a while they will dual purpose buildings and make the people they detain use the drainage water for drinking\bathing while living in sweltering conditions.
Slow roasting, at least the cannibals will be happy!
When said in Celsius it doesn’t sound as bad.
