    Consumers: “We don’t want AI data centers anywhere near our homes!”

    Nvidia: “Ohhhh, you want them as close to your homes as physically possible?”

        I am people and I’m here to say, no. No, people would not be more open to subsidized power. why?

        ask the farmers how that’s working out for them right now.

          I’d say the Agro industry are still racking up decent profits, depending on where they are located.

            didn’t say agro industry, I said farmers.

            you wouldn’t ask the corporate builders if they’re ok with power subsidies on the houses they build…

                  Oh you sweet summer child….

                  What I said has absolutely nothing to do with confidence and everything with knowing the truth.

                  Farmers have been rioting over legislation that hurts the agro industry. Farmers collectives that organize these riots have been deeply in bed and funded by the agro industry as well as far right groups

                  These “farmers collectives” are nothing more than the modern equivalent of the Sturmabteilung of the agro industry.
