This shit has me pissed the fuck off recently. Not only are they doing data centers; but they’re also considering a new foundry right near Albany.
which leads you to wonder…where is all this water gonna come from? Oh, right, one of the few potable drinking sources that supplies like five other states and hundreds of communities. Not to mention Kathy Hochul already conspired with the Pegulas to grift money of Native casinos and reservations. Wouldn’t be surprised AT ALL if water rights are next on the chopping block.
It’s hilariously sad because the Finger Lakes kicked out a crypto-mining operation for literally raising the temperature of the lake by a single degree in ONE year for all the lolbertarians (weirdly powerful in parts of central NY) to start crying about it. Like legit I had friends who were taking pictures of dead fish washing up right near the fucking crypto-center lmao. Here we are now.
The Pegulas are legit the worst petit-bourgie motherfuckers I know. Usually people who own football teams are insufferable but I’ve never known a level of disgusting grift to knock down Native Americans not for land…not for food…not for anything but money to fund your fucking football stadium that you could easily fund yourself.
A fucking football stadium. Fuck this person so hard. She literally looks like an alien wearing a skin-tight mask eagerly ready to burst open and devour a room full of “reporters” asking her about Eric Adams.
I refuse to accept or even entertain inevitabilist arguments about treat printers because of the already present environmental devastation and the fever dreams of rich assholes that know they are making the problem worse and want even more environmental devastation anyway.
If that kind of thinking was in play in the late 80s and early 90s, more CFCs would be dumped into the air year after year and anyone unhappy about that would get condescended to about being “Luddites against hairspray technology and/or glam rock” or something.
EDIT: Oh yeah, and there’d be some “well did you consider… that CFCs are used in hair spray in China, too?” sophistry too.

Ulysses…I just had a tech bro try to sell me on A.I.
“listen, I get your point that you prefer human genuinity…but have you considered that just maybe big corporations won’t use A.I?”
“toxic capitalism”
DING DING DING WE HAVE A WINNER!
Honestly if you’re over the age of like 30 I think you gotta realize the luddites were, like, entirely correct.
But they were so emotional and should have just cheered on the ruling class commanding the machines making life worse for people instead of better.
