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.
ShowHonestly if you're over the age of like 30 I think you gotta realize the luddites were, like, entirely correct.
Ulysses...I just had a tech bro try to sell me on A.I.
Show"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!
Aa yes, pursue AI in order to...avoid scams. Get back to me on how well that works out for them.
"No more porn industry". What do they think the very first thing people did with AI was??
doing my part by slurping the piss off the sidewalk before it evaporates
Ironic that wikipedia claims that the U.S. has less water stress than China is.
When did NYC start having droughts? I lived there 2 years and never heard of this lmao
NYC water supply is an hour north in Westchester and 2 hours north in the Catskills. They don't drink ground water from their locale.
New Jersey just had a record dry September and October: https://www.northjersey.com/story/weather/2024/11/01/2024-nj-driest-september-october-recorded-history-rain/75992861007/
Plenty of places had no measurable rainfall.
