Is China even trying?
>>108817010(39,770 acres are for the parking lot)
OH SAY CAN YOU SEEEEEEE
>>108817068Imagine putting a data center there... and then building several more right next to the residential housing for 70,000 people...KINO!!!
Data centers are pretty compact all things consideredHow on earth are they planning to fill 40k acres?
Approved, but contingent on phase 1 being profitable (lmao)
I thought data was small? Something like 200 TB can fit in a shoebox and that's way more data than anyone needs excepting goons.
guys you keep forgetting about the 10 nuclear plants they will build next to the datacenter
>>108817068>hey man let’s walk to the bar after the game to celebrate!>uh... never mind.
>>108817010>American's SMALLEST Data Center is x200 Times Bigger Than China's LARGEST Data Center>the largest data center in the world is in ... China
>land is cheap>buy up huge amount>now you can build your own powerplant, have your own water infrastructure, and not bother anyone with any "noise pollution">deranged troons on social media still complain
>>108817135I went past the nearest city football stadium and it was quite literally inside the very own city surrounded with houses and apartment buildings, the US seriously has some massive issues with all the land they have that they think they can just expand horizontally indefinitely, and in my country there's like a 70% of the land where there's less than 1000 people per square kilometer, and zones where there's barely 100.
>>108817120Nuclear power plants take 40+ years to build. Always delayed, always 300-400% more in costs than estimated.It's just cheaper to use your gas lines and your hydroelectric dams for powering the data center. You don't need to have access to energy 24/7, right? You sleep 8 hours a day, you don't need the electricity.Just wear an extra sweater when it's winter and open the windows instead of using the AC when it's summer.
>>108817170How dare you tell me to live like a fucking european
>>108817010have fun living in your mass surveillance state, mulattos
>>108817140>>the largest data center in the world is in ... ChinaIDK where they even get this from, the Google DC in south carolina is like 500 acres and the "largest" in the world is 250?
>MAERICAN GLOP IS LIKE THIS!!!>european blob is like this
>>108817170yuropoor mindset
>>108817087Yeah I drove past one without knowing what it was and it wasn't that big. Like a normal sized warehouse. No more than a few acres. 40k acres sounds like fiction. Did they mean 40,000 square feet?
>>108817175>>108817189We all need to make our own sacrifices in order to beat China in AI. I support raising taxes too, so these AI giants can buy a few more GPUs. We just need to hold off a few years until we get our own GPUs for our gaming purposes.
>>108817010@grok can you proof read and double triple check the slop before posting? it doesn't make sense
>>108817199https://www.boxeldercountyut.gov/DocumentCenter/View/2140/Box-Elder-County-Authorizes-MIDA-to-Initiate-Stratos-Project-PDFIt's 40,000 acres for a datacenter and more shit you know twitter: hype up lie exaggerate engagement bait the usual
>>108817010>American's SMALLEST Data CenterWouldn't that be Jeff Gerling's studio?
>>108817164This. You bitch about datacenter construction and you just get unused land.
>>108817182I think that's more than one data center, with their areas combined.
>>108817276oh okay, 3 different sites and includes other things than just the data centerthat's still a huge area though, like a small-medium sized city
>>108817010The purpose of massive data centers like this is state surveillance of everyone. Say something naughty about the ruling caste, and it'll be detected by randomly buried microphones and cameras, directly linked to you, and then the state will dispatch drones and goons to crush you. All in the name of "democracy", of course.
>>108817317Well it's a military "project" so I'm guessing the basis is exactly that, a mini town for everyone based there.
>>china>prevents workers getting fired due to ai>>US>50000 households lose access to electricity due to new data center bring builtAh yes, progress
>>108817182Ridgeville is 230 acres, and St George is 206. So all of Google's data centers in SC combined aren't 500 acres
>>108817010what is the definition of a data center? maybe the smallest data center is actually these two ic shift registers running a few leds on my breadboard across the room?
>>108817276>>108817317>Walmart City>Amazon City>Microsoft City>Palantir CityHoly BASED America.2,000 people living right next to a data center, with low humming and vibrations 24/7. If you're not working or sleeping in your Palantir Pod™ you can eat and shop at the Palanmart™
>>108817343You're forgetting moncks corner
>>108817068Need at least 20 more starbucks and a few walmarts
>>108817542Ah. You're right. So combined they have a larger geographical surface area than the one in China so that kinda wrecks OP's assertion that our smallest is bigger than China's largest
>>108817120Kek. I also heard they gonna make the industry coming back with millions of jobs making america great again.
>>108817068americans are so fucking retarded it's insane
>>108817714it's not retarded when land is cheap and fuel is cheap
>>108817068new 'cado dropped?
China has a lack of purified water.
>>108817010Americans are finally fed up with China dystopiamogging them.
>>108819303>and fuel is cheapyou wuz sayin?
>>108819303>and fuel is cheapAnd RAM is cheap and storage is cheap...right?
>>108817010land can't compute
>>10881708739,000 acres of it is wildlife preservation aka natural heatsink
>>108817010>Approved So they haven't even started digging up the ground for foundations? Won't it take like ten years to build that?
>>108817068MURICA HELL YEEEEEH
