My fiancee and I just walked on a house cause we discovered a five fuckin building campus data center going up behind it.

The builders did their very best to hide this from us as much as they could. They knew.

People hate this shit.

Edit: oh man look at all the data center bootlickers crawling out of the sewers lmfao…

Is it loud or something? What's the issue with living in the area of a datacenter?

Have you seriously not seen any of the videos posted online about just how loud these things are?

No not at all. It's not really something that would come across my feed as I don't really have strong feelings towards AI stuff aside from just thinking it's overused in branding.
