If this is legit the conditions that he is in, that is extremely worrying. Prisoners should not be denied such basic rights and any nation that treats prisoners this way should be ashamed (and held accountable).

    I would highly recommend looking into the author’s history of reporting. Jason Koebler covers Flock and internet culture. This bizarre story is covering what the big tech algorithms are spitting out.

    Although the building houses a public library branch, this is the Obama Presidential Centre, not the Obama Presidential Library. There seems to be a lot of confusion around this.

    'A Black Hole of Energy Use': Meta's Massive AI Data Center Is Stressing Out a Louisiana Community (www.404media.co)
     

    A massive data center for Meta’s AI will likely lead to rate hikes for Louisiana customers, but Meta wants to keep the details under wraps.

    Holly Ridge is a rural community bisected by US Highway 80, gridded with farmland, with a big creek—it is literally named Big Creek—running through it. It is home to rice and grain mills and an elementary school and a few houses. Soon, it will also be home to Meta’s massive, 4 million square foot AI data center hosting thousands of perpetually humming servers that require billions of watts of energy to power. And that energy-guzzling infrastructure will be partially paid for by Louisiana residents. 

    The plan is part of what Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said would be “a defining year for AI.” On Threads, Zuckerberg boasted that his company was “building a 2GW+ datacenter that is so large it would cover a significant part of Manhattan,” posting a map of Manhattan along with the data center overlaid. Zuckerberg went on to say that over the coming years, AI “will drive our core products and business, unlock historic innovation, and extend American technology leadership. Let's go build! 💪”
