All that data has to be stored somewhere. If you want to use modern technology then you need to accept it requires storage. But do people just think the internet is some magic fairy dust or something? I just find it bizarre how people think we can have a modern and technological world without having to actually build it.

its just reinventing a wheel
you can store data in spermbanks and rhey dont rape the electrical grid

If you live next to one, they introduce micro-fluctuations in the power grid which can be seen in flickering lights because when sections come on, the autobalancers can't keep up or struggle to keep up and flickering lights are annoying to the people around them.

The losses on the data center are distributed to the plebians and all the profit flows up hill to the people who already have infinite money and the power to counterfeit any volume of money for the fruition of any aim.

I could go on with ten more reasons, but it boils down to more downsides for the little people, and all upside to the big people.

You don't want one of these to appear within 30 miles of your house, things will be worse because of it, and nothing will be better because of it.

Mmmmmm
Precious data...
With each bit we become more powerful...

The Power supplies in the computer were designed as if there were only one of them, not a hundred thousand of them in a building coming on all at once.

Even if you were to get it perfectly right with a perfectly timed rolling start, doesn't matter because the GPU's inside are either full throttle or resting, you'll have to change all your lightbulbs that you don't want to flicker at random sequences, to be ones that can tolerate voltage/amp drops and surges.

Also they make the internet go slower since ten thousand companies all over the world are synching all of their petabyte files over and back again, using the path your internet takes to the same place. Now your internet is slower because you gotta get in line with a hundred thousand other computers pushing and pulling exabytes.

One that confuses me is the complaint that data centers: "Use up all the water". It struck me as a space fake nukes fake dino bones fake style argument. How are data centers a burden on water supply?

Just a reminder that these business own and distribute petabyes of child pornography daily, yet they're not held accountable for it in any way at all. They're free to do whatever they want with it. They train their AI models with it, and then the people that use the AI to generate fake images of the same type of material get thrown in prison for decades. The entire c-suit class of individuals at every AI and social media company should be spending life in prison. They're peddling CP at a massive scale, making huge profits from it, and the only logical reason as to why they aren't in jail is that the government endorses it. These datacenters are CP centers.

Poisonous runoff from the water used for cooling being introduced into the water and ground.
>>
>>533835354
look at the cost of water as a utility for homeowners near data centers
and compare those prices to before the center existed
also why do you use so many words? be more tearse

Why do they need data centers? Just store it in the cloud. No need to build buildings.
>>
Centers are loud as fuck. Its like living next to a train station back in the day.
>>
>>533834551
They take on none of the tax burden and push utilities sky high for surrounding tax payers since politicians give data centers infinite tax breaks. And to top it off they introduce virtually no jobs to the local economy.

Because BIG (jew) DATA is bribing council members of podunk towns in the middle of Iowa and other flyover states so that they can get free water and electricity. They want to rape the water table for their server farms and when the water dries up they will just go somewhere else.
>>
>>533834551
>data centers?
Come on, man, enlighten me and tell me exactly what kind of data is running through those servers, PLEASE.
>>
>>533836044
i mean even people in iowa need access to internet and electricity and everything else. everyone wants to live a first world lifestyle. you need data there too
>>
These massive targets are really difficult to disguise and utterly at the mercy of drones in the age of drone warfare. It would be a shame if your investment went up in flames Mr Billionaire.

>>533834551
Because it increases the Utility bills of those who live near them. Because they're loud as fuck. Because they generate a shit ton of heat.
Build one in the middle of bumfuck nowhere on its own grind and nobody will care.

>>533836097
Ever heard of Not In My Backyard? It's easy to support data centers til one opens up 30 miles from your house.
>>
>>533836097
Funny how we didn't need data centers everywhere 10 years ago to run the internet.

It's not about data, it's about setting up the infrastructure for their AI dystopia. Shut it down.

>Why do we need farmers?

>>533834551
data centers are no longer just for storage
storage requires nowhere near as much power as the AI datacenters
>>
>>533836395
These western elites are evil as fuck.
>Well China's going to oppress their citizens with AI dystopia, so we need to oppress you too, or they'll win, goy!

That whole line of thinking needs to be squashed. I don't give a fuck what china's doing.

>Internet works just fine with the amount of data centers it has
>Silicon Valley invents the 'Drink 10 Gallons of Water and Give the Wrong Answer' Robot
>now suddenly every open field in every country and state needs to be converted into a massive data center so every company can have their own local source of Bad Answers Robot data center space
>>
>>533834551
I like industry.
Obviously the nearby population may not benefit from the increased resource prices that data centers might bring (electricity, mainly).
There was also some critique with respect to the water usage (might be media bullshit) and some issues with location (zoning) and noise.

I would always support data centers when done correctly.
>>
>>533834551
AI will generate more slop content and therefore we need more storage for slop content to train AI on AI generated slop to produce more slop content
>>
>>533834551
my electricity prices have gone up because of these
>>
>>533834551
I will never and I have never used cloud storage, If I had the chance, I would clog the data centers with buckets of pajeet shit
>>
>>533834551
Also half of them have been canceled which makes me extremely happy. Once the AI bubble pops, I will stop my no goon regime and cum buckets on every person's picture that invested the entire economy into fancy autocorrect
>>
>>533835902 >>533837031
The "cloud" is actually just a bunch of cables lying on the bottom of the ocean.
>>
>>533836795
Your electricity prices have gone up because of the dollar's loss of purchasing power.

>>533836540
yeah, glad you reply to me, AI "datacenters" are more similar to crypto mining facilities than datacenters.

What if I don't want to use modern technology?

They cause shortages of drinking water, higher energy prices, and noise and light pollution, in exchange creating a handful of temporary jobs to outside firms for construction.

The create horrible noise that forces people to move away from them, makes electricity and water more expensive for everyone in the state, drives up the cost of basic electronics of all kinds, and poisons the nearby land with pollution.

All of this is for the 'benefit' of AI slop videos, the obliteration of your privacy, and putting you out of a job.

The better question is why anyone would argue FOR them without being paid to do so?
