In short, as digital consumers, we can take responsibility for our role.
Take an active part and put pressure on our consumption preferences. Make digital consumption an active and conscious process to reflect on collectively.

But don't let the individualisation of blame crush us, as they did with the carbon footprint.

For example, let's ask for the responsibility of the of to those who have it: Mark Zuckerberg, who wants to install it, and the Mayoress of Talavera de la Reina, who allowed it. And García-Page, the President of Castilla La Mancha who, promoted it.

Almost 20% of electricity use just for data centres, while households reduce use during the energy crisis. Insanity!

Ireland is the perfect location for data centres, and gives us important economic leverage.

A ban is a bad idea.

But companies should have to construct at least 125% of energy needs in renewable generation, supporting the energy transition and reducing energy costs for people.

PSA for any / types who follow me; if you use kWh metering "Advantage Series" s, certainly the per-outlet metered EN6329 that we use, we uncovered they were only actually recording half the expected energy consumption(!)

They have confirmed that they have reproduced the issue and are currently testing the next build that addresses this issue, expected to release in a couple of weeks.

A startup had an ambition
To find an efficient solution
For soaring energy bills
So they thought with a thrill
To use data centre waste heat they blew in

More and like this please. “The generated by a washing-machine-sized is being used to heat a Devon public swimming pool. The inside the white box are surrounded by oil to capture the heat - enough to heat the pool to about 30C 60% of the time, saving Exmouth Leisure Centre thousands of pounds.

Content warning... I realise this is comedy, but for anyone who has spent time in a Datacenter, this clueless clownshow is f**king horrifying and highly dangerous from an instructive POV... People who know what they're doing don't rip up their nails on cage nuts...

@mjm I've "moved servers" too, and now you have me recalling past episodes of being called upon as a . Normal company moves are one thing, but pushing a trolley-load of between downtown buildings during a 4 AM maintenance window and hoping the drunks I was passing were peaceful was another thing.

Touvabien !

Donc l'Irlande a une politique fiscale exprès pour attirer les très grandes entreprises, lesquelles ont des datacentres qui consomment beaucoup, beaucoup d'énergie; ce qui provoque des pannes pour cause de pas assez de production électrique.
