I don’t know why data centers have become this generations nuclear power.
Unlike nuclear power, there is a 0% chance that a data center can lead to any sort of disaster scenario.
This project in Utah is:
- in an uninhabited area
- bought and repurposed water already in use
- is bringing its own power, so it won’t cost citizens anything
It’s like being against building a nuclear power plant in the middle of Nevada, except there is no radioactive waste. No fall out. No risk of anything.
It’s a big computer in the middle of nowhere, that is self sufficient in all resources.
There are a million real problems in America.
Data centers just aren’t one.

I think the big Utah data center is fine.

@BassonBrain Sat on this shit for decades…. They deserve to go under.

Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile said on Thursday they agreed in principle to form a new JV with an aim to address long-time coverage gaps, especially in rural areas, by using satellite-based technologies.
This comes as the industry increasingly worries about what Elon Musk’s @Starlink Mobile might do to shake up the terrestrial mobile space.
Musk has said he’s not going to put the U.S. terrestrial carriers out of business, but at the same time he’s expanding Starlink and buying up more spectrum...

@jessenowlin @Ubiquiti @TechFieldDay Hardware is not their problem it’s protocols. They are trying to be their own ecosystem at the enterprise level.

This parasitic idea stems from the anthropologists of peace who preached the Noble Savage canard (as per Jean-Jacques Rousseau). @elonmusk is exactly right. History is paved with rivers of blood and conflict. Violence has shaped our phylogenetic history.

Ancient cultures were extremely violent, not “peace-loving ecologists” at all!

@RandyGoat No! I propose the government doesn’t take my money in the first place, then they won’t have to figure out how to buy my vote with it every four years. Win win. Oh and a cool side benefit, no one gets to live off the government so that’d be pretty sweet.

74 seconds to print a 3D Benchy! 🚢
Someone just printed a 3D Benchy in 74 seconds!
For context: Benchy is the standard benchmark for 3D printing quality.
Getting it done in 74 seconds required pushing every variable to its limit.
Pulley and belt systems optimized for minimal slop, machine rigidity improvements to eliminate flex under high acceleration, input shaping to cancel out resonance frequencies that cause ringing artifacts at high speeds.
A 3D scanner to analyze print quality objectively. Frequency analysis to identify and cancel specific resonance modes in the frame and motion system.
