Why can’t they put these in inner city abandoned buildings or malls?
Why do they need to take valuable farmland to develop these monstrosities
Screw urban areas and the people who live there and vote Democrat

You should see if you could get one in your backyard.

Because they need acreage. Hard to find 1,000 acres in the middle of a city

rural land is much cheaper

They don't "need to take valuable farmland," that's just who is selling to them. There's nothing stopping farmers from telling these companies to frick off.

Building them in a city block or two is not cost effective I suppose. Need lots of room.

Colossus is located in a former Electrolux manufacturing site.
But XAI still has 3 other data centers in the araa. I haven't noticed any ill effects.

How do you know they are all going on valuable farm land?
Posted on 11/12/26 at 1:28 pm to burger bearcat
If farmland is so valuable, why do farmers need migrant cheap labor?
Posted on 11/12/26 at 1:29 pm to Bard
Yep. Farmers are being offered more than they would make from farming it.

I'm not opposed to them being built. I'm opposed to them being built where they conflict or obstruct the public in some way.
These Data Centers are vital for lots of things. Namely storing Data.
If they don't get built here, they get built overseas.
How many Americans would be OK with their financial records or medical records being stored in Data Centers outside the US?
The HIPPA law does not prevent your Medical Records from being stored overseas. And only 4 State's have passed legislation designating that their citizens MR can not be stored outside of the US.

Valuable farmland for what? Do you realize all of the so-called natural food we buy is actually made in labs and factories?

You think datacenters take up any significant amount of farmland?
They don't. It's not a blip on the amount of available farmland.

Do you understand how real estate pricing works?
Urban land is worth FAR more than rural land

Don't you like like 20 miles away? I'd imagine you'd be singing a different tune if you lived down there.

farmland is cheap and faster to build on.

In just about every downtown in America there is a tall building somewhere that has no windows. You may have never noticed it, but they are there. These were the original "data centers."

If you're against data centers, quit using them.
