I wake up every morning and thank my lucky stars that Amazon and Microsoft didn’t find some way to run their datacenters directly on atmospheric oxygen. The fuckers are already stealing all of our water, power, and croplands.
A farm was shutting down because a datacenter operator bought the land, a fully functioning farm. It was more profitable to sell the land than keep it viable for food production…
Now the chances of that land ever being appropriate for farming again…
