Help me spread this 🙏Thx

#Alberta #Canada has approved 20 #DataCenter , 19 more waiting for approval

1 within the town limits of Olds
It's twice the size of Cross Iron Mills mall on 300 acres

The owners are worth billions to the #UCP So the #UCP will break or change every rule to allow them in 🤬

"30 Million/year in tax revenue" to the town of #Olds.
The mayor has already bragged to media how excited he is & it hasn't even been thru any stage of approval 🤬 He & a 7 member council get to decide for all. "A referendum is too expensive" 🤬

Due to 💲 the council very openly ignore that a residential community lives 50 yards from it
I est a 100 of low valued homes will be forced to sell due to the 24/7 noise & pollution. That's IF they can find a buyer
Families will lose all their financial savings in their mortgages

The wealthiest communities live nowhere near this monster
It's poor vrs the rich 🤬
Guess where the council members live?

A bit of good news re proposed data center in Delaware City, Delaware: DNREC (state environment & natural resources agency) denied the application, said it's not allowed under the 1971 Coastal Zone Act! spotlightdelaware.org/2026/02/
(there's an appeal period, but this is major)

Et j'en profite s'il y a des oiseaux de nuit ici, c'est quoi vos arguments contre la construction de nouveaux #DataCenter (de calcul ou de données plus classiques) ?

#Amazon's European #datacenter buildout blows a breaker as grid connection wait list hits 7 years
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in some European datacenter meccas, like Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin, this wait can extend to as much as a decade. The permitting process associated with grid improvements in #Europe has also proven problematic
Power has become more of a problem for bit barn builders as the #AI boom enters its fourth year

"But even if we stipulate that radiation, cooling, latency, and launch costs are all solved" - with my limited understanding it seems that cooling is extremely hard/expensive to do up there.

But putting millions of satellites into the orbit that quickly become debris doesn't sound like a good idea to me either.

I like folks who do the math!
Your eyeball numbers are slightly off my eyeball numbers (you inspired me to check 🙂)

The Chinese have been experimenting with Hainan submersible data centres for 3 years now. I believe they have 3 in operation. Using that as an example, 400 servers with inference engine heatload;

1.5 MW = ~30,000m²
This translates to two football field sized Louvre arrays. x10+ more than ISS array.

However, there are two more effective space cooling systems.

One is droplet radiator which would reduce the area to only ~1900m² for the same heat-load, the droplet radiator area to existing ISS dimensions (though diff tech) - This tech is operational

Second more effective solution is a nuclear reactor/turbine (demonstrated). The Nuclear Brayton solution only needs ~150m² radiator for the same heatload. Before tRump infested our planet, I would say "good luck with that", but since we now live in times where international laws mean jack shit, getting a nuke up there is an option.

BTW: Both solutions are significantly lighter than ISS passive fins.

However, I think it's super bad idea because of trash up there, #kesslersyndrome and its just a resource sink for Ketamine boy now that his #occupymars missions are dead and burried.

TLDR; Orbital #AI #Datacenter are entirely technologically viable. But, sinking them in the sea is way easier, safer and cheaper.

Disclaimer: Back of the envelope calculations.

Why Laptops and Smartphones Are Getting More Expensive?

The answer is not inflation. It is wafers.

In today’s market, every DDR5 module, HBM stack, LPDDR chip, and SSD starts from the same 300mm silicon wafer. When manufacturers allocate those wafers to AI-grade memory for data centers, they are no longer available for PCs, smartphones, or consumer devices.

Was it unfair to translate in this way?

„AI doesn’t have to be evil to destroy humanity – If AI has a goal and humanity just happens to be in the way, it will destroy humanity as a matter of course without even thinking about it, no hard feelings. It’s just like: if we are building a
road and an anthill happens to be in the way, we don’t hate ants. We are just building a road. And so goodby anthill.“

In altdeutscher Schrift: "Wenn KI ein Zöhl hat, ... und das Menschentum diesem Zöhle im Wege steht, ... dann wird die notwendige Konsequenz ... die Auslöschung des Menschentums sein! Darüber gibt es nicht viel zu palavern und keine Gefühle zu vergeuden. Es ist, ... wie wenn wir eine Straße bauen. ... Und wenn da ein Ameisenhaufen im Weg steht, hassen wir die Ameisen nich. Wir bauen nur eine Straße, also Ameisenhaufen adé."
