  1. The financial architecture of next-generation AI infrastructure has fundamentally inverted. NVIDIA's upcoming liquid-cooled Vera Rubin NVL72 rack is projected to command an estimated $7.8 million—effectively doubling procurement costs over a single product cycle.

    While public attention remains fixed on the premium price of GPU silicon, bottom-up supply chain tracking reveals that the most aggressive capital accumulation is occurring within the memory subsystem. Aggregate allocations for HBM4 and system LPDDR5X have experienced a staggering 435% cost explosion, now devouring nearly 30% of the total rack bill of materials.

  2. ‘Going green now for who?’ Yakama protest clean energy project on sacred site to power data center

    Mounting evidence shows that a clean energy project along the Columbia River in Washington near a Yakama sacred site would in large part power a data center

    by Alex Baumhardt, Oregon Capital Chronicle, May 28. 2026

    GOLDENDALE, Wash. – "High up on the Washington side of the Columbia River near the John Day hydroelectric dam, members of the #YakamaNation gathered to protest a clean energy storage project slated to be built on a #SacredTribalSite.

    'Supporters of the #Goldendale pumped-hydro energy storage project have said it will help meet growing regional energy demand, and the project developers tout its potential to one day power up to half a million homes without sending harmful greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. But mounting evidence shows a large #Datacenter campus could be among the main beneficiaries of that power.

    "At the event earlier this month, Yakama leaders and a handful of nonprofits fighting the project in federal court, including Hood-River based #ColumbiaRiverkeeper, called on Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson to intervene after state and federal agencies issued key permits to the project developers, a process 10 years in the making. This was despite a state review finding that it would have 'significant and unavoidable adverse impacts' on Yakama historic sites and culturally significant plants.

    "The 700-acre hydrostorage project is slated to be built on the contaminated grounds of an abandoned aluminum smelter formerly owned by #LockheedMartin, and, more broadly, a site that has long encroached on a sacred Yakama site called #Pushpum, meaning the 'Mother of all roots.'

    "It’s home to #Yakama #ArchaeologicalSites and dozens of seeds, roots, flowers and shrubs harvested and protected by the tribe, some of which are endemic only to the area.

    " 'I know we’re in a time when we need renewable energy, but why on our #RootGrounds? Why on critical #MigratoryCorridors for #hawks, for #SageGrouse and the deers?' asked #ElaineHarvey, a watershed manager at the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission and a member of the #Yakama’s #KamíłpaBand.

    " 'And I say: For who are we building? We’re going green now for data centers,' she said. 'We’re not going green for Washington and Oregon state mandates. We’re going green for data centers.' "

    "The project’s owners, the Danish investment firm #CopenhagenInfrastructurePartners, have not disclosed details about who would buy the energy."

  3. I'm somewhat fine with AI datacenters being built, provided that they take care of 150-200% of their required energy intake with renewable energy (including the batteries: it's gotta be 24/7) and provide their excess electricity and excess heat to the community, as Power Plant and District Heating for heating buildings and warm water.

    When the bubble pops, at least there's the usable energy left. Win-Win.

    «Well», I start, a bit awkward, «it used to be a group of socially inept people looking down on the floor, and only start lifting their head to look at each other after several alcohol units…»

    This is scary, this video shows part of the Rio Grande in New Mexico is completely dry , the Los Lunas data center takes 75 million of gallons of water a year, there is a drought and this water consumption are going to destroy the ecosystem in that area .

    #History rhymes. For me, it's how I read that an #nvidia #gpu was more likely to be stored in a warehouse than be placed in a #datacenter. And my understanding how quickly #tech advances mean that there's a good chance that those chips will be old tech before the #datacenters are built.

  26. "From Maine to California, more states and local communities are passing moratoriums and bans on construction of the noisy, power and water hungry buildings. People are getting arrested for speaking too long at town halls, legislators are receiving death threats, and it’s clear that the fight against these computer warehouses will shape American politics for years to come."

  30. So, I've had to deal with neighbors regarding #LightPollution and #NoisePollution (and luckily, was able to get them to understand what #SensoryPollution does to folks, especially those who are #ActuallyAutistic ). Now, imagine what it would be like living next to a source of both light and noise pollution and not be able to do a darn thing about it (other than move). That's what a lot of people (and animals) are having to deal with if they live to close to a #Datacenter!
