Except for the environment and also everyone wanting cheap GPUs and SSDs.

    In what way are data centers GOOD for the environment?

    I have not said that. All I'm saying is that destroying high end hardware is bad for the environment, because it will lead to more manufacturing. It is wasteful. Instead cut their power or something.

    I feel like those are criticisms that should be leveled at the people who built the thing specifically designed to exterminate life on the planet by heating it up as fast as is physically possible with current technology.

    If a machine is destroying life, it would be nice to be able to reuse bits for farming or something but just stopping the extinction is sufficient.

    Execute all executives.
