They're threatening us with a good time again

@Purple thanks for your humourless input, random internet stranger

[hierarchy@mastodon.social]

@pikesley I wonder if there are any datacenters underground?

I, for one, look forward to this future of which you speak, Home.

@pikesley "tiny, cheap drones in the sky disabling massive, critical data centers on the ground" uhh... guys... this is inherently asymmetrical warfare - we don't need to leave it to the nation states. The obvious sequel to "How to blow up a pipeline" is now "How to disable an AI datacenter." Especially since they're using all our water for their evaporative cooling on the rooftop - disable the cooling and the whole thing either shuts down or burns up

@Purple @pikesley
So...governments around the world are installing fascism to continue to do capitalism on a boiling planet, many are using AI tech in warfare (with devastating and horrifying consequences) and these wars are being started by the worst people on the planet...

But sure, let's blame the OP for posting a bit of dark humor.

🤦‍♂️ ffs

@pikesley in war times one has to destroy the AI machine which is coordinating attacks.

@pikesley everyone, it is not that hard to quit using billionaire social and news media. Do it now, sooner than later! Help convince others to be part of the solution too!

[iwillyeah@mastodon.ie]

@pikesley this feels like hoverboard levels of promising. Too good to be true.

Can’t fucking wait.

@sleepfreeparent @pikesley If you want to strike for maximum effect then a chip fabrication building would be perfect. -they cost in excess of a billion dollars and the planet depends on chips made by these buildings.

Point here is that insane levels of reliance of ultra complex chips that only a few places and businesses can manufacture is super precarious.

@pikesley they’ll be doing the world a favour, some of the horrific cabling work I’ve seen over the years.

@NicelyManifest @sleepfreeparent that's the next stage, when China siezes Taiwan

@srtcd424 @pikesley It occurs to me that a resourceful nation state might even be able to ship a few of their beloved Shaheds all the way to us-east-1

@pikesley Port Washington's Mayor, here in Wisconsin, isn't worried: “I don’t worry about the safety or security of the city of Port Washington, because Data Centers, they get hit internally (their computers) not externally.“

@glent @Hierarchy @pikesley Geothermal wells can sink ridiculous amounts of heat. Space is at a much greater premium. Carving a chunk out of the interior of a mountain is difficult.

Power feeds and network links are probably easier targets.

@pikesley finally, victimless war

[viralobscurity@mstdn.social]

@pikesley I'm unsurprisingly comfortable with the loss of a few data centres in the name of war

I'd accept 1,000 data centre losses over 1 school or hospital any day of the week
