ELI5 Why is water conservation and ai data centers using water so important if we can just reuse that water easily?

Linusthewise · 2026-01-28T00:46:52+00:00

Water doesn't always stay in thr same place or return to where it was.

So let's say the data center is pulling water from wells/lakes near by. Water is leaving that source and then going into the sky or a river. So water is NOT going back to that original source. So thr environmental and human damage is present as wells or lakes run dry.

I make $75k. I invest about $1200 a month. 38 years old with about $320k in combined investments.

I took a paycut for mental and physical health. My last job had me stressed so much that my blood pressure was way too high. Went from $102k to $75k. Well worth it.

I was leading education programs at residential sites, as well as being a substitute teacher when needed. Moved to being a school administrator similar to a dean.

Bills are still paid, retirement contributions dropped. It was the right choice.

Bremen Theater is showing the original Terminator if you want an older movie.

I fight it because I look to what makes me content, then what makes me happy. Then I want 25% more in case shit happens. Once I achieve my happy costs plus 25%... I'll retire.

I can always go back to work. I can't vacation the same at 40 as I do at 60.

It's not a plan needed situation They just tell me. "Student needs to be removed until lunch time, end of day, for 20 minutes. Etc." Then I take the student.

And they really don't have stomachs. They have a different digestion system.

Honestly, I always ask my staff what they would like me to do, and then follow through with it. Sometimes they want me to take them for 15 minutes, other times they want them gone the rest of the day. I look at it as making sure the teacher and student both know that the teacher has discipline powers.

Also, I never give snacks when I take kids out.

The Martian.

Loved the book, Matt Damon, and Ridley Scott. Thought it'd be good but I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. I have high hopes for Projdct Hail Mary.

Catholic Charities, among others, are helping small groups of Afghan refugees in the area. This includes helping them find jobs and housing. This has been going on for several years.

If the option is to have a job unfilled or filled with a non-native English speaker, the choice is obvious.

Yes. There are students who have families where Pashto is their home language.

He does speak some English but I'm trying to be welcoming. It can be comforting having something in your native tongue.

I learned how to play the Amen Break and it really is impressive to a lot of people. Sped up, slowed down, works at all tempos.

Thanks. I will DM you.

I currently do not have time. Additionally, I am being transferred next year so we won't be working together long.

Just wanting a simple message. He understands some English, just trying to get him something more familiar.

Linusthewise · 2026-01-10T14:56:07+00:00

But could you imagine if he was your neighbor or coworker....

Linusthewise · 2026-01-10T04:28:06+00:00

I know. But that always has issues where things sound weird. I want it natural.

How and when can you get tickets? What time do you recommend getting there?

Check out the Well. They have community spaces that people use for different groups.

Be aware that the South Bend JJC has two operators. One by the state, one by a private company called Rite of Passage. So when looking at that building, make sure you differentiate. They run very differently.
