It’s pretty obvious from the context.
“Environmentally friendly”? No, they use crazy amounts of power.
“High-paying, long-term” jobs? Working in a data center may be in the tech field, but it doesn’t offer what people think of as “tech money” and your opportunity for advancement is slim. Data centers also don’t need to employ large numbers of people. They just suck up space and resources.
Edit:
The data center industry’s demand for electricity is growing so much that it could threaten Washington’s efforts to transition to a carbon-free power grid…
The original bill required each data center to create at least 35 permanent positions at 150% of the surrounding area’s average personal income.
A second bill, approved just a month after lawmakers passed the first tax break, gave recipients the choice between creating 35 jobs or just three positions per 20,000 square feet of server farm space, whichever was less.
Oh look, I was right. Could have told you all that before the state wasted money on this.
This wouldn’t have even made a difference in the assassination attempt.
What?
I don’t remember a strike on Sunday or Monday.
Somebody’s getting fired and that company is getting sued. I’m very curious how much this outage will have ended up costing the global economy.
I wish I could breathe underwater in my dreams.
I often am even more disabled in my dreams than I am in real life, as my dreams play to my fears of being entirely unable to walk (I have muscle weakness and fatigue, but I can still walk almost all of the time) or to wake up (also have narcolepsy and sometimes can’t wake up).
I’ve started buying DVDs and Blu-ray again after years of not doing so because there have been multiple instances of me purchasing a movie on some streaming platform and then it no longer being available. Also, there have been even more instances where it’s less expensive to buy the physical product and then rip it than it is to buy the digital copy.
People do use decimals in Fahrenheit, mostly when talking about body temperature.
And 98 is not what’s considered normal, though it is within the normal range. Closer to 98.6 is normal.
Sure, but I never see people use two decimal points in real life when using Celsius to describe weather.
Tenths of a degree are more noticeable in Fahrenheit than in Celsius for the same reason.
Fahrenheit is superior to Celsius because it’s more specific and I will die on this hill. 71F feels different than 72F and yet they’re both 22C (for example).
Metric is better than imperial, though. Obviously.
I’ve been using kbin.run for a while now and I like it.
I meant because it does not sync between different devices.
Should have used Signal.
I guess they are under the false assumption that the platform spreading disinformation is unintentional and undesired.
