I don’t understand some things in the water consumption.

Why do they need to humidify the air for the datacenter?

Why is there water consumption for cooling? Aren’t they recirculating water used for watercooling? Or are they using f*ing tap water then throwing it out?

Water for electricity production, kinda, yes. Could be indirectly attributed to their water consumption as they are using the electricity produced by the sources using water.

Rather push by Microsoft instead of Google?

Don’t know, not using ublock origin. I use enhancer for YouTube on Firefox, and still not seeing any pop up.

Tho I have it set to allow ads for subscribed channels. Tho the setting seems bugged as a feature where most video ads get blocked, but some of them still run sometimes at the start of the video. The square adds on the side aren’t blocked either, but they are not a hindrance.

I don’t think you look at it from the right way.

AI is already in a lot of people’s lifes and they don’t even notice it’s that.

From your keyboard word correction and prediction, to power management, smart image edition and categorising and more.

And some things are done locally on your phone.

The increase in AI capability on phones can allow more things to be done locally, and maybe even get something like a local LLM to predict what you want to type. (LLM = large language model, like chatgpt, bard, Llama and others, they can be used for more than just answering your questions).

Well if you can’t use the router to connect to the fiber, they maybe you can do this : Fiber > isp router > ethernet > custom router > devices.

This would just add a slight negligible latency increase and maybe limit the max speed to the ethernet port, but you’ll get all the benefits of the second router.

The second router having it’s DHCP network with it’s firewall.
