Found out this week that the internet data center in Ashburn uses more electricity than 80,000 homes
I was reading that article about all the weird stuff that happens in data centers and the number for Ashburn Virginia just floored me. One single facility pulling more juice than a small city. Makes me think twice about every stupid TikTok video I watch. Has anyone else seen those crazy power numbers for server farms?

Counterpoint: that's progress, and my TikTok isn't going to watch itself.

Man @allen.amy I just set a timer for 15 minutes and it kept me from binging for hours.
