It really sucks that there will for sure never be any improvements in technology between now and then which could lead to a decrease. /s
so less than 10%, 14 years fro now? Seems reasonable, especially since there might be substantial technological improvements or changes in that time.
Go Texas!
Yes, but think of all the untaxed profits that like 2 or 3 companies will make from those data centers. 🤩
One star state
I wish they’d put them all in California. 😑 Let them waste their own water.
Could maybe, not at all.
Crap story and reddit users love being lied to
Where does the water go after it gets used?
Wait till everyone finds out how much water a gas or coal power generation station uses.
It’s almost like all these data centers are a bad idea 🙃
I didn’t realize Texas would still have any water left by 2040 /s
Why the fuck do we neee data centers. Fuck data centers
