Does someone have a storage room full of data centers?

There are definitely datacenters that aren’t live due to power hookups. Is the idea that we should precisely time both? I think everyone would love to do that. To the extent that GPUs are not in production, it’s not because they could be and are not so. Literally everyone who buys them is trying to put them into production because they’re as close to a money printer as one can legally have. The operating margins on a running GPU are incredible.
Even my old RTX 6000 Pros would be profitable if I rented them out.
