Good job, we found him

We have similar products where I work as well, they are just expensive thermal imaging cameras. They would not be able to identify the chemical contents of a gas cloud at a distance, just that there was a cloud. The point is that in the age of digital media, its very hard to prove anything is what you say it is. Between photoshop and AI making a mess of the digital media landscape, it makes things increasingly difficult to validate, and shouting “do your own reaserch” will only add to the ambiguity as the internet is not static and can be changed by anyone at any time.

You misconstru uninformed for skeptical, an eco-themed news site will have a bias against anything related to data centers, supreme leader musk, or burning hydrocarbons. So apologies if I took the article with a grain of salt.

Compared to the data center sprawl in other areas, yes. As others have pointed out, this appears to be a gross over-utilizarion of the local utilities and is just burning shit to make the building work where noone is paying attention to it.

This article and what they are doing feels fishy, for a few reasons.

• Data centers usually have steam plumes, but only with older cooling systems, newer designs dont vent off nearly as much water vapor and even newer designs have liquid-to-chip, and im not sure how those vent the heat, but its definitly not venting their treated coolant+water. (Because that would be dumb and expensive, but that seems to be the flavor of the day, so lets roll with that)

• If the building was not designed by a monkey, then this is likely just a generator test. I want to put the emphasis on “TEST” because a data center only runs its very inefficent generators when utility power fails. (They will generate exaust, but usually its diesle generators or something with cheap fuel). Fancy gas turbines sounds very “extra” because the reason that deisle generators are used is that they can turn on and hold the load of the building quickly (and the building should have a battery bank to hold that for exactly what ever that time is)

To me, one of two things is wrong, either the camera is just imaging thermals and thats a normal steam plume and they are being sensationalist. OR (and more likely answer). Musk is building some bespoke data center in the middle of bum-fuck nowhere without the local infrastructure to support it and is doing all sorts of expensive additions to make it do what it would be able to if it was clustered with other data centers that share utilitites.

Also it supposed to start later in the afternoon, and DC has a decent chance of scattered thunderstorms today. Lets see if mother nature decides to show up.

If we could power the world with irony, we would have fixed the renewable energy problem in 1928 when they put Andrew Jackson on the 20$.

The irony of this event would be able to power a medium sized city, perhaps a data center or an aluminium foundry.

Sanity is overrated.

Plus most of it is old office equipment saved from the trash. Only stuff that I purchased is the gaming PC when thats due for a rebuild and all the wires…

4-6 screens… EvE Online player who has a different account on each screen. Primary is lower left, the alts all get scattered on the others. And screens 5/6 are technically a seperate PC, but I use Synergy to share a mouse and keyboard.

Most games live on screen 1, which is also routed through a capture card. (I need to fix the audio passthrough, project for future me)

Hello, Y2K called, this is literally what caused it. Years stored in 2-digits had to be fixed on every computer on the planet before the calendar rolled to 2000. (People thought nukes would fly, glitches would crash the stock market and the world was going to end)

Whoo! ISO-8601 fan club!

Because it justifies their escalation, this aint LA’s first rodeo, they can handle this. I would not suprise me if there are more feds than protesters in some areas. Hopefully this simmers down and we get some good drone photos that show the crowd ratios and make the feds look like fools.

Unlike the Jackson administration (yes, its been that long since the executive branch has been allowed to participate in duels, and thats for a very good reason, he was a lunatic) guns actually fire where you point then. Unless they insist on using some antique smoothbore, someones getting hurt. I would not put it past them that actually hurting your opponent is not the point of formal duels.

It helps is it was a hyperfixation at one point. In my case, timelieness was a problem, around the same time I was learning programming (Ruby/Rails) and needed so odd time functions to handle multi-timezone inputs. I ended up with a minor fixation on UTC, multiple clocks set to it and a scary ability to do timezone offsets in my head. Bonus, im not late for shit anymore.

And this is exactly why I asked. This is a link to the orgs you claim have cases, not the active cases or reports of said cases from reputable reporters. If this was a graded paper, I would not pass it for failure to site sources.
