Yeah, it’s not even close, BT uses stunning amounts of energy nytimes.com/…/bitcoin-carbon-footprint-electricit…

Honestly, that’s not that bad? If we were to turn off every data center if would barely impact world energy use and electricity is getting cleaner every day. Of course we should push to get better faster, but this doesn’t seem like a big source of low hanging fruit.

Does that include NSAs data centers?

It’s also only electricity. We use a lot of energy from other sources too.

That’s suspisiously not bad at all

EinfachUnersetzlich ,

I don’t believe that for a second.

It actually makes sense if you think about it though. Think aboit Google, Amazon, Facebook, etc. They all have massive data centers, heck, even OpenAI with their Gpu farms.
