He's a grifter. None of his investment projects make money.

The funny thing is that Utah has some of the worst air pollution in the world. Yet they keep pushing to make it worse. I remember a couple of years ago in summer doctors in the state beg government to restrict private cars till the air problem clear up and the gov told them to fuck off.

What are the chances the people of Utah work together to stop it and reverse it from being built?

Dont know how it is overall in Utah currently.

Would have to be a big problem to focus on by Salt Lake City people and neighboring states assisting

In a state already facing a water crisis.

Yet they'll still vehemently and gleefully vote Republican.

I feel bad for the few there who see this crisis for what it is. Expect water refugees from the American Southwest very soon.

Also any time someone uses the word 'hyperscale', my spidey senses start tingling.

I'd hate to say it but that useless loser should stick to acting or boating.

this is just another grift… half of the smaller data centers have been cancelled already with most of the rest near impossible to comblete in the promised timeline

he is just making bombastic promises to rake in some fools and their money

[–] ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net 28 points 2 days ago

Ah, another Captain Planet villain added to the roster.

[–] Pulsar@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Kevin is a POS and I really doubt this DataCenter will ever be built. Having said that, this article is also full of fearmongering trash.

”Turn out, it could create a massive heat island capable of devastating the area’s ecology, said Robert Davies, a physics professor at Utah State University.”
