Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

https://www.pbs.org/video/we-saw-what-ai-data-centers-dont-want-you-to-see-n1ewcf/ This type of journalism is telling the truth & proving it; so now we know that "Data centers must bring their own power source" is not a good thing either, nor is taxing the grid. Sneaky power applications that claim less power & then expand; fossil fuels the BIGGEST energy source and demand for more materials to build this way - this story is revealing, and there wasn't any Chinese budget involved.
