Unlikely. Other than the telcos there's only one proper commercial datacentre here. Space is very constrained and the electricity supply stability + summer heat aren't a fun combination

- purrcat259 5mo agoThe coasts will definitely be wiped in 100 years but underwater is a bit of an overstatement
- fragmede 5mo agoalthough, Microsoft did a whole experiment with underwater data centers, so maybe there's lessons from there that could be applied.
