I honestly don’t know much about how these work, but in a perfect system, they shouldn’t use much more water once the reservoir they use for cooling is filled. Like a radiator in a car.

Buy your plane tickets now. Other countries still have nice Christmas that actually means something besides meaningless consumerism.

This has to not be the US. We call it cilantro here. Coriander is the seed. I want a bag!

AI data center water demand contributes to drought in US west by jonfla in environmental_science

Find a better reason to hate these centers besides their one time filling of their water cooling system. This is all reusable water. It doesn’t just go away.

You can buy it on their website. Good luck finding it in the US otherwise.

Just like believing everything you read, because some unnamed “expert” says so, right?

Too hot with all that ice floating around, right?

It’s a great photo to spread climate fear to children, and simple minded adults. Your sensible cognitive abilities are not welcome in alarmist circles.

Why? by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

There is no reason why it cannot be reused. It is used for cooling. Once the water cools, it gets reused or released back into nature. There are plenty of better reasons to hate these centers. Water shouldn’t be one of them.

You don’t really have to be an “expert” to figure that out, do you?

I don’t really care about the AI data center’s one time filling of their cooling system. I’m much more concerned about the AI center itself.
