I mean they could be, but there’s nothing stopping the ultra rich from spending less than one dinners’ worth of money on a salt water distillation system for the money printer
sure, but the corporations involved are hardly the most competent nor forward thinking actors :p
money can buy you expertise, ofc, but often these people have an overinflated sense of their own abilities and think their expertise with computers extends into many other fields that it does not extend to :p
I mean let’s be real, you have to use distilled water anyways if you’re using it to cool electronics. The odds that they are buying distilled water instead of distilling it themselves are incredibly fucking low given the fact that a water distillation system costs less than a server rack and buying distilled water is fucking expensive
I don’t think it’d even work. I wouldn’t be surprised if their cooling water is distilled in the process, so the salt would just get filtered out.
On boats we literally use sea water to cool things and distill it on the ship. Data centers can surely do the same thing
You underestimate how much billionaires cut costs. Water distillation? That could be 1 more gpu.
There are some exploding rockets that can show you examples.
Not a bad point
I feel like boats are probably better equipped to deal with sea water than data centers but I might be wrong

they do not, they use evaporative cooling towers. i don’t think adding salt would make any difference to that either way though
