I would honestly rather have a loaded nuclear silo right underneath my house than a massive AI data center within 1000 miles of me
It's the dream. Imagine the reliable power & internet connections. Plus you could hang a sign on your door like:
"No Soliciting
Violators will be shot for reasons of national security"

Electricity production vs electricity waste, the choice is pretty obvious honestly.
Ignoring the fact that I also don't think I could trust any company in 2026 to maintain a nuclear power plant well, it feels like we've actually gone backwards in that front specifically.
Unpopular opinion: wouldn't it be nice if the government wasn't against renewable energy? That way the data centers could use that instead of leech off of our supply.
Doesn't fix the issue with water though...
