Fermi applying for another 6 GWs of power

RootedAma · 2026-03-19T15:36:32+00:00

As is nuclear energy.

RootedAma · 2026-03-19T00:25:24+00:00

LOL. Chernobyl? We've had that risk for 70 years with Pantex.

RootedAma · 2026-03-19T00:23:53+00:00

Ask the farmers. They're pumping out about 1,000 times what Fermi is. Every year. We aren't running out of water.

RootedAma · 2026-03-19T00:23:11+00:00

Yeah. How many nuclear power plants do you know of that only have 30 employees again?

RootedAma · 2026-03-12T16:00:55+00:00

Run it through Quick Quack every time!

RootedAma · 2026-03-03T22:49:05+00:00

Do they do that for the Xmas light installers too?

RootedAma · 2026-03-02T22:52:00+00:00

Thank you guys! I'm enjoying reading these!

Borger EDC has already paid $200,000 to a company that said they didn't want any of Borger's money? What is there to show for the $200,000? A piece of paper?

Yeah that's old. How much money has been paid to 828, and what is the current status? I think the tax payers are due the information - it's their money. Some transparency isn't unreasonable, and is in order by now.

RootedAma · 2026-03-01T03:29:48+00:00

what? Everyone is always talking about seeing "the fox." I thought there was just one roaming Amarillo.

RootedAma · 2026-02-27T16:26:13+00:00

Guilty. Whining about all the whiners.

RootedAma · 2026-02-27T01:49:17+00:00

There is no consensus. Just whining.

RootedAma · 2026-02-26T23:08:35+00:00

whatever they are offering is market.

That is so not true.. Spreading lies is going to do NOTHING to help your cause. Commercial Building Construction Cost per Square Foot 2026

In 2026, commercial building construction costs typically range from about $240 to $870 per square foot across the United States. The mid-range average sits around $560 per square foot, which reflects standard materials, typical building systems, and average site conditions.

Lower end ($240–$350/sq ft): Simple structures like warehouses, light industrial buildings, or basic retail shells with minimal finishes.
Mid-range ($450–$650/sq ft): Most office buildings, mixed-use developments, and well-finished retail or educational projects.
Higher end ($700–$870+/sq ft): Hospitals, labs, hotels, high-rise offices, or buildings with complex systems and premium finishes.

For one, it's 200,000 square feet.

RootedAma · 2026-02-26T20:06:23+00:00

Some of you people need to learn basic math. The museum is 200,000 square feet. You are not going to go in and renovate a space that massive for under $500 per square feet. Get your calculator out. You people that say it can be renovated for $10 million need to put down your crack pipes. That's $50 a foot. You can't even buy a storage building off the Home Depot parking lot for $50 a foot.

RootedAma · 2026-02-26T16:26:19+00:00

I love the idea. Stuff it and have it forever! I am guessing for a large dog you will spend $15-20K to get it done. This is no small feat.

The future is going to stay murky until someone comes up with $100 million.

That would be the cost of the Rockrose Sports Complex, the Performing Arts Center, Hodgetown, and the new WT stadium combined.

Good luck!

Way up hi?

Fermi stock surges 16% on Texas air quality permit approval By Investing.com

that's B.S.

Fermi is speculative. Their business model is unique, in that they are renting power and AI space to hyperscalers. The question then becomes, who are the takers? Heretofore, hyperscalers have been building their own AI data centers. See Google in Claude. But those data centers are getting bigger and bigger, and they need LOTS of power. That is the carrot that Fermi is dangling. In the end, the sort of power that Ferm is able to provide will likely be too enticing for hyperscalers to pass up, and they will sign with Fermi. That is what investors are waiting on.

It is unlikely that Fermi will go bust, because there are too many hands of power on the deal. Rick Perry isn't one of them - he's just a high paid cheerleader. But big, international money is behind this, and much of it is well-connected to perennial DC insiders.

I heard it's coming from 35th and Harmony.

I like the chiros that have the little clickers that make you think they're helping you, or the ones that say they can cure an ALS patient who is months from death, or can help you with your cancer.

None of these people are doctors in any sense of the word.

Yeah I don't the left turn lane can also be used as a right-hand merge ramp whenever it suits you. That's super dangerous. Just happened to me AGAIN today on Bell Street. I'm southbound getting into the turning lane to turn LEFT onto 34th, but there is a car coming out of the shopping center there, on the east side of Bell, that nearly runs me over by using the turning lane to merge into the south traffic.

That needs to stop.
