there are structural issues related to data centers but yes to the point here. xAI's facility is knowingly and willfully illegal per 40 year old provisions in federal law. Red letter illegal. Everyone i know who works in Clean Air Act Permitting drops their jaw when i explain the basic facts at hand

Yes, Elon Musk built a big data center project in Memphis, and attached a bunch of unregulated gas peaker plants. This is VERY BAD and should be opposed and prevented. Your problem is with the peaker plants, not the data center - no one thinks power plants should be built without regulation.

wow, yeah, sure sounds like these people are apolitical conspiracists! imagine thinking a data center might give you cancer
What you need to understand is that the data center conspiracism and the tech oligarch grifting go hand in hand.
The kind of moron who thinks data centers emit special rays that give you cancer is the same kind of moron who is eagerly buying SpaceX stock because Musk will put it all in space
