Public schools would be a good idea, too.

Guess what Trump's local campaign organizers focus was before he was put in prison for 20 years for human trafficking? Defunding our local libraries.

The true purpose of data centers is to study people in order to control them.

I agree

There's a...oh. Yes. Absolutely. Yes.

👏👏👏

DATA CENTERS TAKE UP MORE ENERGY AND WATER THAN A SINGLE COMPUTER WISE ARSE

The non-fucking libraries, too.

I don’t think that’s true. Unless you mean that people are listening to audiobooks… which is still reading.

Oh yes, Taking ages to manually research something, only to find you've got a generic answer, as opposed to asking ChatGPT and getting a specific answer in seconds.

👍👍

YES!!!

Well, other libraries too

If you don't have a library card, stop in at your local branch and get one. Library funding is dependent upon the number of patrons. So even if you don't think you'll use it, think of the card as a small blow against fascism. Besides, once you're there, you just may find something uniquely valuable.

I hadn't considered that possibility!

Library funding is tied to usage- Borrow online, check out a book, movie, music at your local branch; download the Kanopy app on your phone using your library card and have free access to 30,000 movies+ all *commercial free*!

You're the problem Derrick. Submissive, and the tech oligarchs love it.

That's my point. How many and how big do you now need them? They are building huge data centers which are energy hogs, water hogs and noise polluters. How about a huge data center next to your house? Tech bros aren't building them as a public service. They are to rake money off everybody.

I know but the vast majority of processing power of data centers are not going towards that

In which case your post would magically appear on millions of computers how?

100% in fucking agreement!

Are you ready to do your part and stop using all AI?

Going there now!

Makes perfect sense

Yeah? Got a cell phone?

PornHub?

And food banks.

Ours is cutting hours. Thanks gop.

Don't call it that. Christ.

Pardon the pun, if you will, but...WORD!

Absolutely agree

ok

Plus, not ironically, aside from patrons' necessary discussions with reference librarians: libraries' air-conditioning systems are much, Much, MUCH quieter than the data centers', and thus don't impinge on the neighbors!

Afuckingmen 🍻

A competitor has been quietly winning contracts. 🫩

I’m sure that after a few years searching that pile of books you’ll find the exact piece of information that you seek

AMEN!!

you posted this on TWATBXX? Any reaction ?

Universities: THE FUCK?!?

And you can't hear it from your house

Exactly

Are the billionaires' data (control) centers govt funded? Ffs.

WHY ARE POSTING AN AI GENERATED IMAGE THEN?

The only “effin” data centre not the “effin” library

🤓💡 We can do our banking and shopping and social media through the books. We can book flights and the pilots of all the planes in the world can navigate through the atlases. All the businesses can use the library tables to put all the paperwork on. There'll be lots of room to put our medical files..
