Everybody in the pool! Little Legends, party portals, and an Arena fit for an epic function? That can only mean TFT’s 7th Anniversary Bash is here and Patch 17.5 is about to go off!

What happened to using this as a texture place holder in videogames instead of AI? "We forgot to remove the AI assets" thats exact why this pattern is so visually strong

The Nashville Zoo has launched a public campaign to block construction of a proposed 69,000-square-foot AI data center that would sit directly adjacent to habitats for endangered animals, including vulnerable clouded leopards. Zoo officials warn that the facility’s constant noise, bright artificial lighting, and electrical hum could seriously disrupt animal behavior, stress levels, and long-established breeding programs. The zoo is home to more than 3,700 animals representing over 350 species and maintains one of the most important collections of rare and endangered wildlife in the United States. This conflict highlights a growing backlash against the rapid expansion of data centers driven by the AI boom. These facilities require massive amounts of electricity and operate 24 hours a day, prompting communities nationwide to raise concerns about energy consumption, water use, noise pollution, and environmental impacts. Wildlife conservation groups are now joining the resistance. More than 180,000 people have already signed a petition opposing the project. The developer behind the data center states that it will use waterless cooling systems, meet all local noise regulations, and comply with environmental standards. However, zoo leaders argue that the location itself, immediately next to sensitive animal habitats, makes the project unacceptable regardless of technical mitigations. The dispute underscores a broader challenge of the AI era: how to build the vast digital infrastructure needed for artificial intelligence without placing undue pressure on local communities, ecosystems, and wildlife.

Stand with us to protect the future of Nashville Zoo. A proposed 69,000-square-foot data center is planned next to the Zoo, but no environmental impact studies have been conducted. Sign our petition to help protect the animals in our care ➑️ c.org/KxhXznzBcD

Like Saline, my hometown in Michigan is fighting to stop the development of a 172-acre (Anthropic) data center. The proposed site backs up to residential neighborhoods, the town’s library, and my former elementary school. The developer is now threatening the township with legal action if they continue to delay the project, knowing that the township doesn’t have the funds for a legal battle. It’s so incredibly sad to see politicians like @GovWhitmer stand with tech villains instead of their constituents.

Disgusting. So disappointed in Governor Whitmer’s support of data center expansions in our state especially when so many Michiganders are opposed.

IT’S POPPING. THIS IS NOT A DRILL, IT’S ACTUALLY POPPING
BREAKING: MICROSOFT JUST ANNOUNCED TO BAN ITS OWN ENGINEERS FROM USING AI DUE TO THE COST OF USING IT. VP OF NVIDIA SAID, β€œTHE COST OF AI FOR MY TEAM WAS MORE THAN HUMANS” β€œAI CAN COST MORE THAN HUMAN WORKERS NOW”
Community note
Microsoft did not ban its engineers from using AI. Rather they canceled their Anthropic contracts and told their engineers to use their own internal AI (copilot) instead. eu.36kr.com/en/p/382445783… thestreet.com/technology/mic… thenextweb.com/news/microsoft…

Good idea! Fuck them both.
Why don't we talk about the water consumption of an 18-hole golf course in the same way we do data centers?
