@therootnews: More than three decades after serving in Operation Desert Storm, Loretta Young Thornton never expected the sounds of war to follow her home. The 66-year-old retired Army veteran and U.S. Postal Service retiree lives next door to Elon Musk’s Colossus 2 AI data center in Memphis’ Whitehaven neighborhood. The facility operates around the clock, with thousands of cooling fans and dozens of gas turbines producing an industrial roar that has replaced the sounds of nature around her home, which she named “Serenity.” Thornton says the noise reminds her of a war zone. Her new neighbor? “I just say that’s my noisy neighbor, Elon Musk.” #xAI #Memphis #DataCenter #ElonMusk

Mind you, she’s a veteran who suffers from PTSD. She often has flashbacks from war because of the sounds coming from the data centers. This is reprehensible! She served her country, put her life on the line, and this is how she’s treated?

Sad. Unfortunately that house has lost almost all of its value due to that data center. No one wants to live next to a data center.

I would file noise pollution complaints every single day and night. They need to do something about the noise and light pollution.
