5·1 day agoI know the grid in Texas is (was?) separated from the main national grid, and I guess, maybe something like this could eventually lead to a state wide grid that’s disconnected from the main grid, and maybe that’s very much the long term intention and a real problem.
It would take awhile to manifest as a big issue though as at least the blurb indicates it has to be for newly built power plants and new loads.
If a data center wants to build their own offgrid power system though I don’t see the harm in that? In the future they might very well be building SMR’s to power only their facility.
I think it should all still be overseen by whatever existing regulations there are and kept to the same standards though. And maybe some rules about connecting them to other purpose built ones under this same grouping?
Like, Apple builds one, and then Google builds one. Google and Apple can’t join together.
Maybe even limit it to some strict commercial type use, so Google can’t be doing this to power a google city where residents live.
Edits: Clarity and thoughts along those lines.
Edit: Oh and it should be mandated to be green energy.
The idea and motive and intention is great. The (edit: eventual) outcome is always evil.
I like to think if I was in a position to be working with data like that, that I could ‘accidentally’ forget to redact it one time and trigger a leak like this.
They publicly released that data at that point though through their own failures, fuck Flock for trying to suppress it.
1·1 month agoI remember when HDMI came out and then DP.
I wish I knew what was actually going on at the time with regards to licensing, I just knew they both worked and didn’t really pay much attention to things. Sometimes I’d use DP sometimes HDMI.
If I’d known, I definitely would have made a more concerted effort to support DP when it could have made a bigger difference.
Yes, they’d become a thin client.
The concept isn’t new and happens in the corporate world connecting to the corporate servers to run the software, but he wants that to become the norm.
A chromebook is somewhere between the middle of a regular computer, and what Bezos wants.
