This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Not to be that guy but you can easily find something a thousand times worse with suburbia than some measly data centers.
Those things eat up land at a much larger scale than anything else aside from farming or logging.
Regardless of any similarities, are you actually comparing places where human beings live with empty buildings that eat unlimited power and water and terrorize the communities they infiltrate?
The "not to be that guy" people have never once come in good faith.
