A Canadian accuses a Utah organization of being foreign funded! If Gov. Cox had a backbone he'd publicly distance himself from this individual and the data center.

Why do we tolerate such boorish behavior from politicians. Such people should have their backsides handed to them on a platter by the electorate. And yet we keep electing them. Wake up good people of Utah! Vote these corrupt GOP thugs out.

When will people realize that data-centers are NOT growth accelerators or permanent job providers. Instead they reduce the tax base (think subsidies and tax breaks), guzzle up scarce resources (think water and electricity) and drive up costs (think real estate gobbled up). Utah voter, tell our cowardly governor to grow a spine and stand up to tech-bros and the corrupt felon POTUS.

Trust a conservative state to shred books! After all, if you keep the young ones ignorant and uneducated, it becomes easier for the religious right to co-opt them. Shame!

'Under Utah law, once three school districts (or two districts and five charters) remove the same book for containing “objective sensitive material,” all public schools in the state must also pull — and destroy — the title.'

Have a little more insight into that #Utah #AI datacenter and the real reason Big Tech is always fretting over #China.

Spoiler: China simultaneously makes both a great customer and a great villain, depending on who you're talking to...

‘Irresponsible’: backlash as Utah approves datacenter twice the size of Manhattan

Facility would require more power than entire state uses and suck up vast amount of water in drought-stricken area

Yesterday, I did the Golden Spoke ride for the first time, and it was a good event :) Here's pictures from 5 of the paths we rode on: the Denver & Rio Grande trail, the Syracuse trail, the West Davis Corridor, Legacy Parkway, and of course the Jordan River Trail. All connected in a several hundred mile paved path network.
