        Maybe we can start a GoFundMe, something like “Help me get my life back in order by destroying an OpenAI datacenter”

    Oh no, you couldn’t possibly take out all of the AI data centers. That would be so awful for the shareholders.

      But when you dig into the history of the US in the 20th and 21st centuries, you start to notice this isn’t just a “Trump” thing. Outside of WW1 and WW2 (though the US had spurious reasons for joining WW1), the US has been the bad guys in every other instance.

      The US is the imperialist hegemon, Trump has just been more open about it.

        Trump has also been more corrupt and stupid about it. He’s not being honest about it, he’s being flagrant about being a tool of the giant corporations.

          Also more open about just drifting the fuck out of his followers. He sold them a $2 bill for $100. He also pump and dumped not one … but TWO crypto coins.

    Stupid question but why would you put a data center in one of the hottest place on earth? Are they stupid?

      It’s cause UAE did a big chunk of the funding and wanted it to be built there in order to market themselves as a tech hub.

      I’m guessing they’re gonna do it if the US attacks their infrastructure further. They’re using the threat as leverage.

        yea, my gut reaction was to wonder why they’re telegraphing it, but obviously it’s wiser to keep it as leverage

        Can’t wait to see it blow up though

          Seeing how unhinged Trump is and that he’s continued to escalate, I do think it’s more likely than not Iran will blow it up eventually.
