$87k household. So that's 6 median incomes of water being used up by that datacenter. Put that way it doesn't sound bad, especially when you glance at the electric bill.

Also when it evaporates instead of going to the sewer that drops the price in half.

Edit: Oops I got that mixed up and was treating it like a per-faucet cost. So actually it's one full household income converted into water to handle the entire facility.

Yeah I’m sure someone on median income feels the same
