A taste of their own medicine. Turns out it is bitter.

> Where are the people and politicians with optimism and a vision?

Seems like an assumption on your part that being pro-data center reflects "vision" and "optimism."


Backrooms is Marvel for 4chaners and other very online people, let's be honest.

>DVDs and even video tape are relatively recent.

All seem trivial compared to the money sucked up by billionaires, who seem to do little good for society. I'm not going to get angry at a police officer trying to maximize their retirement when we live in a society that celebrates people like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg.

Two things can be bad, you don’t have to pick.

Those billionaires are not hoarding cash like a dragon in a lair, their wealth is mostly in stock in productive (FB is debatable at this point) companies many people use.

Boomers (only people I know receiving pensions) use pensions to fund lavish lifestyles without having build major companies.


Yeah. How dare they… give you one-day delivery of anything you might want like magic for the first time in human history and help use fewer fossil fuels to prolong your planet’s life while also providing ubiquitous connectivity anywhere on the planet’s surface. The selfish scoundrels.
