What are your thoughts on that?
I hope to hear words like "bollocks" and "bullshit" dispersed equitably.
In California during their droughts restaurants wouldn't give you a glass of water unless you asked for it. Maybe there's some compromise between that and pumping groundwater for datacenter cooling.
Plenty of places are using water faster than the aquifers they use regenerate. I hold no issue with banning using that limited freshwater resource for cooling.
Opposition to data centers is not only dumb and stupid, but it’s unpatriotic. China is already taking the lead on so many things. This would be like handing LLMs to them on a platter.
This might help you understand what should be the priorities for efficient water utilization (and reducing waste): https://www.construction-physics.com/p/how-does-the-us-use-w...
