@dementiapotus My knowledge of turbines only comes from aircraft maintenance school, so grain of salt. But gas/coal/nuclear turbines are spun by steam to generate electricity, and i havent seen freshwater concerned over them before.

A precedent of wastefull data centres would be terrible tho

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@dementiapotus My bad, it will still draw from our grid. The additional plant makes me not concerned about electrical draw.

Closed loop would be a non-zero amount of water yes.

In good faith: I am anti-lawn. I am not convinced *yet* that the water usage on this project is concerning

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@Smileyyeg @TroyMclure22 You are simply closed minded to new tech.

Very austerity minded response.

@skiidmarxx Capitalism is not a doctrine. People are not "capitalist" the same way people are "marxist"

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@GeminiSentry @finelylesberg Wrong. I am poor as dirt and love making rich friends. Use all their rich people tricks like socializing and such.

The thing which makes rich folk different from us is their families investments earning more money than my salary.

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@dementiapotus VERY misleading. The project specifically states that the energy demand will be satisfied by new power projects. You got something confused there.

Furthermore you have no idea how little water is consumed by steam powered electrical turbines.

@SilentSnow89 Yes, construction workers stop working when the building is constructed.

@satanasnati @slimengrimen Anxiety from climate change is a treatable issue that professionals are familiar with.

You can decide to live with your fight or flight response permanently activated. Deactivating that *mental* response won't invalidate the reality of climate change.

PTSD is similar.

@puppylover64630 The point of a short life is the exact same as the point of a long life- there isn't one

It is hard to argue against because we are not nurse practitioners who have spent years studying psychotherapy

Climate change anxiety is a common issue. Suicidal ideation is a medical emerg

@SlumberCrown @christoaivalis @lilbabygandhi My neighbour only exists because I dont murder him.

Yeah, retarded right?

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@SilentSnow89 Hahahaha "obscure units of measurement" okay Mr Gigawatt.
Literally yesterday you used the energy consumption of Edmonton as a unit.

It was to give the reader a frame of reference no?

I am not even pro data centre, you just keep making strange arguments!

Screw golf lawns tho.

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@puppylover64630 Lol that's kinda real af. My point is if you experience suicidal ideation *because* of climate change then you *NEED* to change your own beliefs or you might die by your own hand.

To clarify, this is not an endorsement of climate change denial.

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@ReinBeau_ @slimengrimen Suicidal ideation is not acceptable. If you convince yourself life isnt worth living due to global warming, you **NEED** to see a doctor.

Depression is a real illness which can be healed. However it can ONLY be healed from within.

Cognitive behavioral therapy is a start.

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@ReinBeau_ @slimengrimen I beg your pardon?

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@slimengrimen Recognizing it is the first step to addressing it, so you're already on the right path.

Don't ask me "now what?" YOU are the only one who can change your mindset. See a therapist and talk out your problems

Dead people cant stop climate change.

@SilentSnow89 Alberta produces 73.9 terrawatts of electricity per hour.
73.9TWh

The city of Edmonton uses 1.4 gigawatts of electricity per.
1.4GW

1.4GW = 0.0014TW
1.4GWh = 0.0014TWh

"300 jobs will require as much energy as 1.2MILLION people!"

"300 jobs will require 0.0014TWh"

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@SilentSnow89 @klem1_klem Your logic is inconsistent. You do not like data centres for unrelated reasons

"1GW* for 300 people" convinces nobody. It is a reductive and misleading statement

*I assume you mean GWh? You also consistently use incorrect terminology.

They pay AB to use electricity? Not waste.

[Subconscious @Subconscio91133]

@edwardrow Genuinely confused why you're concerned about "natural gas electricity". Our grid is consciously designed against that fuel source.

Other countries do not have the infrastructure to run these building on renewables

BC's energy consumption from 2021.
