And they don’t even need to waste it, there are plenty of ways to cool them that doesn’t result in the water being used up.
Best one is the Google datacenter in Hamina, Finland, they have the cooling loop connected to the city central heating system, so not only is no water used, the excess heat is useful as well. And the datacenter is powered by solar, so it’s renewable heat as well.
But it’s in Finland, Texas only needs the excess heat for 3-4 months per year, Arizona even less so.
Arizona has a lot more potential for solar though.
None of this excuses the wasting of water, closed loops and compressed coolants should be able to do it, but won’t be as cheap or energy efficient, so nobody will do it without regulations that force it. That’s what we really need. If we ever have a functioning government again.
They are doing it on purpose to try to take people out. Death by no water, no food, no medicine, no healthcare, no everything.
This is where community, getting things done, & building up personal hope are important things.
Read https://goodgoodgood.co/ articles about Hope. In the website press the 3 line thing on top right then press search and type “study hope” or “hope” read the recent one about the 14/15 year study. Also, the other one from June/July how hope is fundamental to life.
There’s better ways to do data centers than the ways they cool them that use up the most water, putting them in areas where it wastes even more water, and not paying for it by pushing the cost to the people
So you tell me what that looks like to you personally. It’s not like the current administration, & big tech have been doing anything good lately
Personally it looks to me like a bunch of people don’t give a shit about others and conveniently push away uncomfortable discussions about the consequences of the decisions they take.
But that it still a far cry from Bond-villain “let’s kill them by taking their water”.
Makes sense. Can see it from your perspective as well. I guess I wouldn’t say most are Bond-villains (Some though truly messed up people want that though)
Still a lot of them already know about the droughts and climate change yet still do it. So even though it isn’t Bond-villain style can still see them not giving a shit basically translating to fuck it let them die without.

We all gotta keep moving to stop this shit
Can I just probe this: You believe that, for real, someone is sitting and actively planning to kill people by removing their water?
All good go for it.
