@cbseveningnews: Data centers are facing growing opposition from communities concerned about their impact. Developer David Daneshforooz tells Tony Dokoupil there’s a simple trade-off: If society wants to keep embracing technology, it will need more data centers. More from St. Louis tonight on the CBS Evening News. #datacenter #techtok #stlouis #missouri #data
Ya know what sir I would gladly give up that technology to still have a working power grid and water.

if that's the only choice we're given, then I choose to disconnect from technology. we were fine before, will still be fine. The billionaires are the ones that want this. not everybody else.

We don’t want the technology that the data centers are being built for!!! If you’re going to build them the very least you can do is make them more energy efficient instead of speeding up the destruction of our planet

I would say the biggest user's of the technology are corporations trying to find ways to cut the human cost out of their business model. They will be fine.

The data centers are for the surveillance state. Data centers aren’t for the rest of us. Give me a f()cking break.

Those data centers aren’t for our large language models, they’re for surveillance. The data centers are for powering government technology. Not Claud.
