>Bombshell new reporting by Fortune details the plight of residents in Lake Tahoe, on the border of California and Nevada, whose electrical supplier is cutting them off in order to supply more energy to nearby data centers.https://nz.news.yahoo.com/electric-company-says-cutting-off-155618714.htmlBeing an American taxpayer is just a humiliation ritual at this point.
Lake Tahoe residents should seize the power company's plant and hold the employees hostage to get the power to come back on. Terrorism is more effective than protests, I don't like it but it's true.
>>535135413all of that can be offset by one drone accident
>>535135413Just shoot their HVAC system.I am not joking; a single hole in one of those means millions.All you have to do is put a single bullet in the cooling tower every week, and in 3 months top, they are moving away because it's impossible to keep them working without cooling.
>>535135413If your sink is in trouble, you can call us on the double!We're faster than the others, you'll be hooked on the brothers!
Everyone who lives in Nevada should be CURBSTOMPED
>>535135941Also, if they, for some reason, decided to spend billions building a huge wall around it. You can always accidentally park a drone carrying a bent steel pipe over the power lines.Cheaper than lawyers...
>>535135413This is real freedom.
>>535135413>May 14th 2026>LAKE TAHOE RESIDENTS BTFO BY DATA CENTERS>May 14th 2027>LAKE TAHOE DATA CENTERS BTFO BY RESIDENTS I'd laugh my ass off if burgers manned up and did something for a change.
Wasn't this story complete bullshit and the company was told they weren't allowed to do it unless they first found alternate power provision for the town?
>>535136365Shalom
>>535136365There's no indication I can find online of that being the case
Property has more rights than people in america.>>535136365Then the company gets one of those 20-year-old diesel generators from army surplus sales and delivers it to the town, claiming they fixed the problem.You don't negotiate with evil.
>>535136365That'd be preferable
>>535135413So?
The town should build their own power plant, they should have known better than to build a town where a future data center was going to be located.
>>535136519>one of those 20-year-old diesel generatorsyou really have no idea how big a data center is do you? youd need hundreds of those, minimum. alsolook a talking monkey!>>535136733that electricity was promised to the data center 3k years ago
>>535135413>at this point for at least 100 years>lol
>>535135641The problem is when it gets to that point, to stop and go home once they agree is fundementally more riddiculous than executing them and replacing the employees with more compliant ones.
>>535135941Who will pay for the repairs?Protip: not the shareholders or the owners
I believe news headlines.
>>535136433>>535136365It’s a typical headline-heavy news story. The utility company from which the city currently buys power is going to sell their electricity to a data center in the future. So the city will have to buy their electricity from a different utility company. That is all.
>>535137258I believe you're a Kevin O'Leary shill
>>535135984i agree fuck nevada and everyone in it, especially reno
>>535135413Seriously, when they're cutting power from homes, it's war then. You're being exterminated. Will you just sit there and take it? Fight for your lives. It'll be like that everywhere soon
>>535135941True, but it’s been said that they’re not using the traditional a/c systems. Seems like the water supply would be a choice because they’re using water instead of a/c. That’s where the complaining comes from on wasted water.
>>535136152Lol, never heard that one, but will work. Down on the hurricane cost sticks blown around short the lines when the hit. Steal pipe would definitely work
>>535136365Yes, lawyer words fix everything on paper… real world totally different
>>535137670It’s just a municipality having to buy electricity from one utility, not another. It’s literally nothing.
