bix6··on Improper redaction reveals Google Data Center water and electricity usage

IMO the water thing is a distraction. It gets people quibbling over water instead of asking bigger questions about the data center.

Ok but if you are permitted for some obscene number you could at any point draw that down no?
bix6··on Improper redaction reveals Google Data Center water and electricity usage
Ok and? This wouldn’t be an issue if google et al would just share the numbers instead of hiding behind NDAs and whatever else.

Different value prop. Playing on a bot server I imagine my goals would be different since the computer handles all the drudgery for you. Maybe I’d just quest or something idk.

bix6··on So you think you could be an electrician?
Ok but now you’re not actually doing the trade work. When I was a machinist, if someone asked me to fix their computer, I’m no longer a machinist. And you can’t just become a machinist because you can solve complex problems, you need specific training.

Loved RS but it’s too grindy for my life now. I don’t have hours to click on trees to level up :/ Definitely one of my all time favorites though, something magical about the game and hitting a 99 really took time / felt like an achievement. Excited to give this a try once it’s ready!
