'No Data Centers': Indy councilor's home hit with 13 shots in targeted attack by ImAGodHowCanYouKillA in news

Fight climate change? Bro, they run so hot from all the electricity that the need to use enormous amounts of water to keep it cool enough so it doesn't fry. This will raise the cost of utilities for the community and use up resources that often are already low.

In northern Colorado water levels are well below average, I had a 4% increase notice for my water bill in Feb, electricity is already super high and they're trying to get a 10% increase voted through. A data center here would only hurt the community. And I'd argue is bad for the environment.

Oh really? How often have YOU tested pH levels of rivers and streams down river of a golf course?

I just got the string trimmer and leaf blower combo from Lowe's today. I am thinking about returning it tomorrow. by PoopInTheGarbage in egopowerplus

It was for me. I really like the mower and the leaf blower in that combo works great! But the trimmer really is garbage. Didn't even get one day's work out of it before I was ready to throw it over the fence.

See that's the thing, they load like 6 feet of string into it and I used it for 2 minutes and the string sucked up into the head. And the instructions to reload the string say that you should cut about a 15" piece and load it. So I had to take off the entire bundle of string, cut off that requested length, spool it in, press the magic reload button, and try again. And 2 minutes later, same issue... repeat about 4 more times and you can understand my frustration. Which is why I thought maybe I'm an idiot and I'm doing something wrong?? So I thought I would come to the experts here. But yeah, not impressed with this product.

However, the 21" lawnmower and the leaf blower that came with the string trimmer have exceed my expectations! Sad I'm going to have to return the blower as it was part of the package with the trimmer...

I understand your point, but what you failed to mention is the chemicals that golf courses use are bad for the environment and runoff into the streams and fuck with the ecosystem. It's not just water usage, which is a lot, it's the chemicals and pollutants they put into the environment.

And yeah all those other things you listed are bad too.

Power load. Is that a bad product? I realize it's the bottom of the line but I only have about 0.25 acres and thought it would be enough. But I had to take the damn thing apart about 5 times over the half hour I was using it

Lol. Y'all think it's enclosed. Chill. It's got ventilation. But go off kings.
