"There are well over a hundred data centers now in Northern Virginia, all concentrated on three adjacent roads in a two mile box."

I don't live in Virginia, but I stream WMAL to listen to Chris Plante and Dan Bongino (I like Vince Coglianese a lot too). Consequently, I hear a lot of local news from that area during their news breaks - I cannot believe how much electricity and water these data centers require. It was a big eye-opener for me.

Simple fix. Get a decommissioned nuclear carrier or submarine to sail up the Potomac, dock it off, and then lay cables from the ship’s generators to your waterfront DC area data center.
