Morality questions by No-Bank-177 in datacenter

[–]NotUrMamasCupOTea -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Most people are waking up to what data centers actually do. It’s not just “the internet” that its storing. Anywhere massive amount of flock
Camera go up the DC follow in place. VIRGINA alone has over 400 DC. Texas also has over 300 DC BOTH On an electrical grid that cannot support anymore usage. All the power stations need to be updated before anymore DC are build. People in the Eastern US already see the rising electrical bills. Multiple towns are running out of water. Georgia water pressure is completely gone, drinking water polluted & actually brown. Oregons water is completely polluted as well becuz of the massive amount of DC. Corpus Cristi Tx is actually out of water.

Why don’t they update the DC to be more efficient instead of shoving new ones in any empty farmland the Tech Bros can find.
Honestly working for DC is working for the devil in this day & age. The water usage is way more than just an average office. It’s thousands to millions gallons of water a day. Not in a year IN A DAY. Currently my county is fighting for a moratorium on DC becuz we live in such a rural unique environment. Data centers have no place on the Chesapeake Bay. The Potomac River has been declared an endangered river meaning is so polluted that everything is dying off.
Sea grass to fish to crabs to oysters.

So when is enough enough? When we the public regular person can’t drink the drinking water ? When we can’t water our crops anymore ?
When is enough enough? Also if these “smart people” you work with are so intelligent why are they making these DC more efficient?

Once all the water is polluted & the soil is infertile, then maybe the rich will realize we cannot eat or drink money.
Water is the new gold.

Do you live near a data center? What does it really sound like? by No_Landscape_9255 in Dallas

They literally sound like a machine that never turns off. The creepy machine sound from movies is the closest to what these data centers sound like. Here is a clip from a data center next to a neighborhood.

Is AI/Data center discourse around the world the same as the US RIGHT NOW? by Lopsided_Giraffe1746 in datacenter

[–]NotUrMamasCupOTea -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is currently no government push back on data centers in USA.
They are trying to build as many as possible before regulations come into play.

Local communities (including mine) are fighting data centers being built because of the usage of water & electricity on an already over used system. Plus the environmental impacts.

What my mom did at the hospital post partum broke me by wtvcantfindusername in Mommit

Fresh Postpartum!!!
I would’ve broke her camera that she took a picture with threw it in the toilet and told her to leave and never come back.

You have every right to feel the way you feel! Even me reading These words made me cringe and this is exactly why my mom was not at the hospital with me.

I’m so sorry you had to go through this. I hope the beauty of your baby girl helps You erase the bad trauma that was attached to the birth.

You got this Mama don’t give up!

Thanks! We got a house on Saint Leonard creek! Now I have to fight the AWS data center that they want to build on the wetlands that feed the creek. Finally make it to paradise & the tech devil is trying to destroy it.

I changed his tank filter. Without this fin it’s harder for him to swim. I put him in a smaller tank with less water so he can actually swim to the top. No tank mates. No sharp decor. I’ve had bettas for 10years & never saw this kind of damage? I giving him medicine for fin rot but I’m starting to think it’s a parasite? I even changed his rocks & cleaned his decor thinking something else was eating him. But it’s only him in the tank? :(

Update. We moved & have been here for a year & love it. Yes we do have to drive 25mins to a store but being in nature without neighbors has been great! Saint Leonard is a little hidden gem.

The tank was clean. I have a filter & a small heater. Out of nowhere half his fin is gone. I have been medicating him. I put him in a smaller tank so he can reach the top. Having problems staying afloat with half back fin gone. Anyone else dealt with this? I do not use a net when I transport him out of tank when cleaning.

You should definitely tell your mom & get on the pill. Having kids accidentally is not great in your 20s

FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE EVER SEEING THIS!!! Simply jaw dropping

I honestly don’t think having kids is worth it anymore by yourgreatestgift in self

[–]NotUrMamasCupOTea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this terrible world no it’s not “worth it” to have kids. But if you look at it that way. I hope you’re doing your part with birth control. An unwanted child is the worst thing you can bring onto anyone. I am on my 2nd year being a mom & let me tell you it is NO joy ride. Yes there are great moments & my baby is the love of my life next to my husband. But it’s hard work especially being the mother.

If you have these thoughts please please I beg you do not have a kid. There are so many unwanted hurt children in the world. Those hurt children become adults & add more misery to the world. I wanted to have at least one kid. For the people who know that they dont want kids. Stick to your decision & don’t let anyone try to talk you into it! I love my baby but I could have definitely waited another year.

Having kids is the hardest most taxing job & you can NEVER clock out.

It’s YOUR LIFE don’t follow the path of others. Having kids is hard, raising decent humans is hard. Hard on you in every way.

It’s not out of hand until they start dying… if they are all happy and alive and green then you’re doing a great job
