      there is no such thing as a gas powered computer. Maybe they meant a gas powered plant that would transmit electricity.

      there is no gas powered computer, that’s the equivalent of saying I can make weed out of plutonium.

      I can’t even look at the page because these corporate shills have to track me one way or another, it’s probably just coorporate propaganda.

    Who would plan a gas powered data center in a post- Hormuz era?? This is either a boondoggle or the planners are dumber than a sack of hot doorknobs
