The Stratos artificial intelligence datacenter footprint will cover more than 40,000 acres (62 sq miles) over three sites in Box Elder county in north-western Utah. The facility will require about 9GW of power, which is more than the entire state of Utah currently consumes, and suck up a significant amount of water in an area that has been hit by severe drought in recent years.

Apparently this will show the Chinese! Is this all about who has the biggest dong?

    No, it's about who has the MOST dong, and that's obviously Vietnam.

    This randomly reminds me of when I played a game in a server with mostly Vietnam players and they were constantly complaining how because it wasn't in their market everything cost massive amounts of dong in the game shop.
