What could possibly go wrong?......................

[Red Badger]

Good thing it’s near HARRIS-BURG.................

[Rural_Michigan]

Wow. Well these companies that have more money than God and have massive energy demands to feed their business model should be doing this. I bet Amazon was eyeing this move as well.

AI uses lots of power.

[ProudDeplorable]

AI is going to require a lot of power. It’s amazing that Microsoft can cut through the red tape with no problem, but if it’s to benefit the average citizen it will take decades.

The left has finally been embracing nuclear, we could have been so far ahead, more advanced, and the people better off if they had not fought it for more than 60 years.

A lot of lifetimes have missed out on cheap endless energy, but perhaps future generations will have it in abundance someday.

Radiant floor heating, snow melting sidewalks, indoor rotating vegetable gardens, no concerns about winter and summer electric bills, competitive manufacturing, all these things should have been part of the last couple of decades.

Has ai done anything good, all I see is stories about people being layed off.

We'll probably see an increase in stolen identity and lots of other bad thigs.

lol.. does anyone else get that matrix feeling from the enormous amount of energy AI takes right now.. and exponentially more each day??
Plug in and power a world of death and destruction. #ErasingReplacingHumanity

If Kamala wins, this will get delayed and cancelled.

[ShadowAce]

This is great—the more nuclear, the better.

[McGruff]

Reviews say it's a CPU hog.

[FLNittany]

It’s Harrisburg. Plenty wrong already.

[Red Badger]

I went to Three-Mile Island for a Job interview.

Got the cook’s tour of the place.

Was approved but I turned it down.............

[Qwapisking]

Great idea coupling AI with limitless power. they say it won’t be the machines...but it WILL be the machines. and you thought terminator was just a movie?

[shanover]

I thought windmills and solar was going to fuel Ai? The symbol of anti-nukes is back on line. The best energy is nuclear and natural gas.

"It’s amazing that Microsoft can cut through the red tape with no problem"

That's not amazing at all, Microsoft is one of the wokest companies out there.

Great things happen to your business prospects when you promote progressive ideology.

Ross Denton: Rodney, can you please tell us, how big is the president?

Rodney Dangerfield: Oh, he’s a big guy, I’ll tell you that, he’s a big guy. I tell you he’s so big, I saw him sitting in the George Washington bridge dangling his feet in the water! He’s a big guy!

Rosalynn Carter: Oh my God! Jimmy! Oh God!

Rodney Dangerfield: Oh, he’s big, I’ll tell you that, boy. He’s so big that when two girls make love to him at the same time, they never meet each other! He’s a big guy, I’ll tell you!

Rosalynn Carter: Oh no! Oh Jimmy! My Jimmy!

Rodney Dangerfield: I don’t want to upset you lady, he’s big, you know what I mean? Why he could have an affair with the Lincoln Tunnel! I mean, he’s really high! He’s big, I’ll tell you! He’s a big guy!

Rosalynn Carter: No! No! No!

Ross Denton: Rodney, thank you very much. You can go.

Rodney Dangerfield: It’s my pleasure. He’s way up there, lady! you know what I mean? [ goes off, leaving Rosalynn Carter very upset ]
