1·18 days agohm… idk. Data Centers need extremely purified water, much more than drinking water so this seems implausible to me, but if you can find a concrete example i’ll definitely change my mind. I just haven’t heard of any cases of that happening.

3·19 days agouh, no. you’re wrong. If data centers had a closed water system, they wouldn’t be “using” any water, effectively. Right now, data centers use water to cool their computers and to do that, they evaporate water.
Golf courses also don’t take water out of the system.

62·20 days agoactually, they do tend to poison the water downstream through use of pesticides etc.
Also, Data centers evaporate water to cool stuff, so idk why it would poison anything “downstream”?

506·21 days agoFunny statistic but relevant:
Data Centers use about 0.06% of the USAs total Water per year.
Watering golf courses in total uses about 0.5 percent.
Not saying Data centers aren’t a problem, but… Water is not the main issue we should be focusing on with them.
I am… so confused. Can someone explain to me concretely what this means? Like I know what the Fediverse etc is but like… this post is written really confusingly
oh, huh. Maybe it’s a SystemD service then, which would be disableable with sudo systemctrl disable akonadi
really? usually KDE based distros have it preinstalled, in Kubuntu for example there’s literally an app called “system services” or “background services” where you can do this. but i’m glad you figured it out
It’s not. look up “services” in your app launcher
Disable it by going to “system services” and disabling it

2·23 days agoI’m sure it’s fixed on all rolling releases too already.



Indeed, and… oh fuck I haven’t done my injection yet
