To be clear, I still consider this laudable and hope to change our house to use a heat exchange eventually, rather than a furnace plus air conditioner pair, per Technology Connections' advisement [1].

- westurner 2y agoOn YouTube, I've seen pools heated by immersion mining rigs and also pools heated by attic heat; but I've never heard of a "zero water datacenter". Great work. FWIU Type-III superconductors also have like no loss. Is there a less corrosive sustainable thermal fluid or a water additive to prevent corrosion? Is there (solid-state) thermoelectric heat energy reclamation?
