Easier to steal.
>>
>>109601888
less likely to be firebombed because they're smaller and hiding in plain sight.
>>
>>109601888
you can break into it and steal some nvidia gpus and ram and ssds.
>>
>>109601888
It's a box full of copper and gold in your neighborhood.
>>
>>109601888
theres no advantage its retarded. just like roof mounted solar
>>
>>109603137
At least with root mounted solar you get the power it generates.
You don't get anything from the data center boxes.
>>
In winter, electricity used in residential houses saves heating costs.

Fuck AI. I hope black folks destroy them.

>>109602027
This entire fucking board is just slop now, isn't it

>>109601888
I have a tiny data center (4 TB).
>>
>>109603174
Most home solar installations don't have any storage. They only feed into the grid.
>>
>>109603298
Always has been.

>>109603737
>implying that the centralized grid has storage
>>
>>109603174
It's only worth it if you spend big money on energy storage, selling your electricity to the grid is a scam
>>
>>109603981
No it's not. Depending on where you live micro-generation pays off between 2.5 to 3 years. If you can sell the excess, you can cut that in half. While battery degradation starts to become noticeable by the 2 to 3 year mark, that doesn't mean they immediately drop dead at that time.
>>
>>109601888
They don't have to build out the electrical grid and can just steal the existing infrastructure this way.
>>
>>109603298
It's been all jeets for the last 5 years.

That sums it up pretty good.
Sadly there is a risk of electrocution when harvesting.
