But hopefully this knocked some sense into it.

stopthatgirl7 OP , 11 months ago to technology in Data center water usage remains hidden

When calculating water use, it's important to not only look at the water used directly to cool data centers, but also at the water used by power plants to generate that 205TWh.

The researchers also tracked the water used by wastewater treatment plants due to data centers, as well as the water used by power plants to power that portion of the wastewater treatment site's workload.

So what “exaggerated claim” did it make or “key information” was left out? Because the article goes into great detail on the subject - civilization collapse - that it brings up.

Actually, never mind. You have a lovely day.

Good to one that a) you didn’t read it and b) you don’t know what “clickbait” is. Rarely is “clickbait” long form, jsyk.

Yup, and I’m all for blocking! Go for it.

I’m not, however, a fan of people who comment just to complain about seeing something they don’t like instead of curating their feed or moving past. Which is why I’ve said nothing to the folks wishing for proper block/mute functions (even though a random post really isn’t the place where that’s gonna do anything; spend that energy making feature requests or in communities for those upcoming apps where the devs will actually see it) and made the comment to get person snarkily complaining about Musk content.

Thanks! Oddly enough, I didn’t get a notification for your comment, so I think something weird is happening with federation. That might be why my post wasn’t showing up for me at first.

I love kbin, but yeesh, is it still janky.

This is honestly the most terrifying thing I’ve read in the longest.

Ok, I’m really confused; I posted this story a few hours ago and it shows up on my profile page and has a handful of likes, but it isn’t showing up on the community page when I look. Can one of y’all check and see if you can see it? Kbin has been having some issues and I need to know if I need to get another bug report made.

The overwhelming majority of kids killing and killed with guns are associated with criminal gangs

CDC numbers say that is patently untrue (scroll up to see the comment posting actual data), so where are you getting that from?

You know you can just scroll past things you’re not interested in, right?

Yup. I still go to Twitter to supplement what I get news-wise from here and Mastodon, and as they drive news sites from Twitter, the less use I have for it.

Yeah, negl, it’s kind of infuriating to see people worried about the poor people who just made a mistake and somehow end up on a sex offender registry, and not the fact that the reason this is happening is because children were SA’d by people who had been able to sign up with a baby sitting service.

Just wanted to say Perfect Blue is a masterpiece. I remember showing it to a friend of mine in college, and afterwards, she looked at me and went, “In one of my film classes, they showed us how to show time passing in a movie, and that movie fucked with every single one of them.”
