What's your experience with AI?

You're a fool. Everyone suddenly hates data centers but you know what they DO love? All the AI in their lives. How do you think this massive thirst for data space is created? Funny thing is, people like you bitch about slow internet and AI lag times but bitch about data centers. Turn in your cell phone, then you might have a case.

You will hear nothing unless you go inside. the only sound is the cooling fans in each rack. The fans are about 4 inches by 4 inches. There are 2 per rack.

Yet Prince George's county (her county, huge majority black) decries the fact that businesses are not coming and there are many grocery 'deserts.' Is it any wonder?!?! Actions do indeed have consequences.

I'd be pissed as hell if I lived in a town getting a data center. I don't give a frick about AI. I don't use it, have never used it and never will.

Fun fact: The woman pictured here credited the viral success of her campaign to the Party for Socialism and Liberation, a China proxy organization operating here in the United States.
PSL is the political arm of the Shanghai-based Neville Roy Singham, an avowed Marxist multimillionaire who has bankrolled anti-American, pro-CCP nonprofits to the tune of $278 million.
Singham’s political foot soldiers have been boots on the ground in dozens of anti-data center fights across the country. But striking down the $5 billion data center campus in Landover, MD, was by far their biggest scalp.
In the ongoing campaign against American AI, cui bono?
More than anyone, it’s our chief political adversary.

What do you expect for stupid?!?! It is nothing but low IQ losers like this who are 'leading' their communities into ruin.

Data centers aren't nearly as concerning as solar farms and/or carbon capture
CC is concerning mostly because we truly have no idea what happens to those sites long-term.
Solar farms are self-explanatory. They're ugly, decrease property values, are inefficient, kill wildlife, and the only reason companies build them is to get the tax credits. Without the tax credits, they would never get built because they do not actually make money without subsidies.

Low IQ voters being misinformed by China.
They generate their own power and contribute to the grid lowering costs. And water systems are closed not requiring a constant large scale source.

I tend to agree. The footprints are massive, and they employ relatively few people.
Almost any other industrial application would take less land, require less power, and employ more people. And... by the time many of them are online, we will be launching them into space anyway.
I get that the capex is impressive, and local governments like the PILOT payments they are getting up front, but long term I think they leave a lot to be desired.

At this point, I dont give a damn about what China does. We've got bigger issues right now than China.
And I'd bet the people of Muskogee, OK up the road a few hours from me, don't give a shite about Chinese propaganda. The people near Project Scissortail are having their property devalued to peanuts because of the big data center being built there.
You can talk about tax base from data centers all you like, but when you devalue someone's biggest investment, they get fighting mad.

Neighbors bitch about grid strain. DC operators build on site generation capacity. Neighbors then bitch about generator noise.
