“The local utility says it’s going to need a million gallons of water per day and 150 megawatts of electricity — enough to power 100,000 homes per year. “
I wasn’t sure what they meant with that water usage. Like does the water get recirculated and it’s a one time expense? Or is it a million gallons discharged into a river or sewer ever single day? Is it tainted? Or just evaporates from a cooling tower? Seems like a huge waste.

This is the scale of things that Microsoft of all things considered and discarded because of what it could do to the power grid. But they didn’t have a genius behind the wheel, so it’ll be fine.
