Buncha people at the project blue data center site tonight. Despite some "experts" saying that drill was for a foundation, that sure looks like a a couple of containers filled to the brim with water and it sure looked like that thingie was pumping it. #datacenter #tucson #protest

I was half right! They are still digging the well, but that stuff is not water they are pumping out, they are pumping it in to lubricate the drill.

So they’re pumping water into the drilling site to lubricate the drill, but they’re *not* saying what they’re drilling for?? (I’m assuming they’re drilling for the water they need to continue construction ‘cause what else would they be drilling for.)

I should probably stop giving commentary because I honestly don't know what I'm talking about. But it's my understanding that right there is for drilling a well for water and they're pumping "mud" which is a lubricant for the drill.

I know what you mean! I keep reassessing what I say about a post - or if I should comment on a post - here for the same reason!!!! Ah! … although I can’t imagine mud as a lubricant (but then … what do I know abt a construction site?!!!! Zero!)
