my aunt who never talks about books randomly sent me a link to book The Secret Side of Our Existence by Victor Hale and just said “read this.” no explanation nothing. i read it in two days and now i understand why she didn’t even try to explain it over text. some parts just make you stop and go wait. why does this actually make sense you wait read this book. it will change your life

Soooooo if they are constantly heating up the water because of cooling the servers, how can long will it be until the river Thames heats to a dangerous level?

And what does that tematratur rise do for life in the water. They complain about climate change. But increasing the water temperature is apparently ok

There is no Tames where they are trying to build a datacenter larger than Manhattan island. It is a dry environment.

“Do you want to know how much water is used by them? None at all!” Instantly continues on to tell us about how much water it will use. Mint.

Heard of someone using the heat from their bit coin mining rig to heat their swimming pool. Need to think how to recycle energy

So if each data centre heats the water by 2 degrees, how many data centres can be built before this causes damage to the river?
