HoosLeft w/ Scott Aaron RogersOrganized labor supports data center construction because they provide jobs up front. But they don't create jobs once they're built and communities don't want them in their neighborhood. We talk about this tension with Dr. Rob Stone.
Mike K3LOE"It would only be a matter of time before a SpaceX orbital data center exploded, spraying debris into neighboring data centers and triggering a chain reaction."

paelneverÚltimamente veo muchos post de gente celebrando que Europa está intentando independizarse del sistema de tarjetas de crédito gringas (visa y mastarcard) como método de pago mediante la creación de un sistema europeo de pago llamado "wero". Si te pones a investigar un poco simplemente ejecutando en una consola Linux el siguiente comando:
whois $(dig +short A pay.weropay.eu | tail -n 1) | grep -i OrgName
(Este comando busca la dirección IP donde está alojado el dominio de pagos de wero y extrae el nombre de las empresas a a las que está registrada esa dirección IP)
Amazon Technologies Inc. <-- supongo que no necesita presentación
A100 ROW GmbH <-- esta es la filial de amazon en Alemania
¿Esta es la supuesta independencia europea? Resulta que aunque el sistema bancario europeo es supuestamente el mas avanzado del mundo no existe una compañía europea capaz de dar un servicio de despliegue global para una plataforma de pagos online que sea mínimamente fiable y en vez de crear una red publica europea han alojado el servicio en la nube de amazon y se quedan tan anchas. ¡Estupendo!, no solo seguimos dependiendo de las megacorps tecnológicas gringas mientras fingimos "independencia" sino que encima les hacemos el caldo gordo para que rentabilicen los datacenters que están construyendo en nuestro territorio con toda impunidad y sin pagar impuestos.
Jugada redonda.

AA"A Meta campus sprawls in DeKalb, Illinois; Apple is expanding its footprint in Waukee, Iowa; Google recently announced plans to build its first Minnesota data center; and Microsoft is investing $3.3 billion into what it’s calling the world’s most powerful AI data center, in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin. In the former fields and pastures reached by gravel roads, this burgeoning technology is a new bumper crop."

DoomsdaysCWScientists have found an alarming #EnvironmentalImpact of vast #DataCenters
Story by Laura Paddison, March 30, 2026
Excerpt: "They found surface temperatures increased by an average of 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit after a data center started operations. In extreme cases, nearby temperatures increase by up to 16.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
"These increases were consistent across the globe, the researchers found. In #Mexico’s #Bajio region, for example, which has become a data center hub, the study found unexplained temperature rises of around 3.6 degrees over the last 20 years. A similar situation was seen in #AragonSpain, a European center for #hyperscale #AIDataenters, which recorded a temperature increase of 3.6 degrees which was not replicated in neighboring provinces.
"Strikingly, the impacts weren’t limited to a data center’s immediate surroundings; temperature increases affected areas up to 6.2 miles away, the research found, affecting more than 340 million people.
"The findings are particularly alarming, the scientists say, because AI data centers are set to boom over the next few years, and these temperature rises come as planet-warming pollution is already making #HeatWaves more extreme around the world."

Houston: our data center has imploded due to a space anomaly.
"LeoLabs, an American company tracking satellites in Low Earth Orbit, said it detected a “fragment creation event” involving Starlink 34343 on March 29."
The company believes both were likely caused by "an internal energetic source rather than a collision with space debris or another object.”
