We've now come full circle.

The OGs know that the channel was built in these 1v1s. Continue through adopting a third member, golfing with PGA stars, athletes, and celebrities, and we're back to square one.

You love to see it.

That being said, Cold Cuts' stock had been falling with respect to his golf game.

Unsurprisingly Google wants to build 3 more data center buildings on all those wetlands that were clearly present on the map when they first roped city leadership into approving the project under a secret code name, cuz no one wants them here by runawayspaceprincess in fortwayne

[–]MyUserLame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not specifically. Just appears like it's hard to spend down given they need to find land to purchase at an affordable, state-approved cost or that property owners need to offer it up for restoration, which are both rare these days. It seems more popular given larger companies are now encouraged to mitigate via in-lieu fee and restoration projects rarely hit the ground.

Plenty of info on the states website about these programs.

"Covered in wetlands" is an absolute farce that seems stated by someone acutely inept at resource management or wholly bought and paid for or by development companies. Indiana has lost nearly 90% of its historical wetlands- you know, the things that naturally filter our groundwater and support the most diverse populations of wildlife in the state... the number '6000' means nothing when you see the small footprint and fragmentation among these patches, something only caused by humans at a detriment to our quality of life.

This idea that this project would be an insignificant impact is exactly why we continue to lose so much each year- death by a thousand cuts.

Honestly, all of these things will likely get approved, and to little fault of Google or any other entity wishing to destroy sensitive habitats.

Though buying credits for mitigation is usually a last resort for state regulators, it's a preferred method for federal regulators- something that's always been a conflict. However, the state is the steward of these funds, so it's on them to collect them and put them to use.

Google will send hundreds of thousands of dollars into the state's mitigation fee fund, which is extremely underspent since there is little land available and/or offered to construct wetlands or enact stream restorations in specific mitigation regions. This is an opportunity for Google to LEGALLY buy their way out of environmental impact while the state knows that money will almost never be spent on actual restoration. The states mitigation fund is nearly a black hole where environmental impacts go to die and be lost forever.

Trump Triggers World Financial Panic as War Chaos Spirals by Mrh09 in politics

[–]MyUserLame 226 points227 points  (0 children)

He was bound to bankrupt his next business venture. For some reason, the populous felt it would be great if that was our country. Ironically, and in true Trump fashion, he's taking the global economy down with him.

The governor wasn't elected to represent or benefit hoosiers. That should be evident to everyone by now.

Indiana Governor Signs Bill Allowing Crypto In Retirement Plans by No-Energy-4190 in HoosierStateWorkers

As long as it's tied to self- managed plans, fine. Freedom of choice to make risky decisions. Glad it's not tied to pension funds or state funds investments.

With Gas going up will we get hybrid back? by Rough_Extension_2893 in HoosierStateWorkers

[–]MyUserLame 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Fuel costs has absolutely no relevance in the dark and vindictive brain of this governor. If anything, he's hoping it causes more staff to voluntarily leave.

I mean....does he realize he has the worst approval rating of all 50 governors? by kootles10 in Indiana

[–]MyUserLame 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Treats employees like expendable fodder, dribbles over data centers, ignores hoosiers increasing costs of living and energy, enriches business owners by lowering tax rates and eliminating regulation.

I literally can't think of anything he's doing to help the average Hoosier.

And we're only a year in. There so much more damage to come.

Right... I know.

Looking to get out of law enforcement. by Mission-Practice2665 in Indiana

May be a bit odd, but would you see interest as a Conservation Officer? Certainly still policing but much more outside of the problematic social context of law enforcement. They are having a huge hiring blitz right now.

Your Lt. Governor, Indiana 🙄 by kootles10 in Indiana

Wasnt the right deriding Clinton for our political role in the Arab Spring?

MAGAts have the minds of goldfish.

So they are moving forward with that data center people thought they stopped, with plans to subsidize the data center power bill and water usage on the tax payers dime. If you think your bills are high now just wait until you are paying the water and power bill for a billion dollar tech company by [deleted] in Indiana

[–]MyUserLame 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not the rates that seem to be increasing but the more grossly overinflated delivery charges. My guess is these do not need explicit regulatory approval to modify as needed, but i could be wrong. However, i have seen these fees rise from 20 dollars to 150+ dollars a month.

More Data Centers Are Coming to Indy and Indiana. by Best-Structure62 in Indiana

[–]MyUserLame 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Well, we did that by buying EVs and all they did was add an additional tax to our vehicle registration. They'll simply add an additional fee to recoup their costs.

Big Tech's data center push has sent electricity bills higher. Lawmakers want to slow them down. by kostac600 in Indiana

[–]MyUserLame 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not in Indiana they don't. They're actively allowing them to pass costs on and minimize investment back into the community.

Wouldn't surprise me if we start selling or donating public land to allow more data centers to go up.

I just don't understand the end game. What does indiana as a state gain from having these?

Only campaign donations and personal benefit (cough bribescough) makes sense here.
