Concerns about noise pollution and increased electricity costs are just morons?

What about concerns about air pollution from unregulated diesel generators? Or using large amounts of water in drought prone areas?

Buddy I work in world class premier data centers and I don’t want more of ‘em either. I appreciate that you think I’m a moron though for wanting to protect my community from douchebags like yourself. But respectfully I reject your bullshit.

99% is an interesting figure because that's roughly how much my energy bill has increased despite no significant change in my usage due to data center demand on the grid
