    “If we don’t mow down this pine forest to build a data center, Mississippi is basically over!”

        It might be true either way. Just a different kind of ending. It’s clearly not a state that’s improving as it is. The data centers won’t help the people most in need right now though.

          What can compare ai to? I think it fail. Like 3d movie and tv? May be.

          The build help people job. But later no job, just computer thinking.

    Gotta love the governor of the consensus worst state in the country opining on civilization.

    Also, I’m not sure which lobbyist told these idiots to start using the word ‘civilizational’ but it’s the second goddamn time I’ve heard them use it in the last week and neither this motherfucker nor Marco Rubio should be pretending their notion of a good civilization is the right one, considering how impoverished Mississippi is and how impoverished the vast majority of Americans are.

    We here in the US are the best example of civilizational suicide, killing off the bottom 99% for a handful of fat, useless, pedophile billionaires.

    Just put data centers into third world countries and ruin their environment. It worked for factories. And the rent is cheaper.
