    It’s giant, it’s stupid, and i love it. This is what tech should be used for: Art, not math to maximize stock trades per picosecond.

      I get the sentiment, but at the same time it feels like a mad waste of resources and energy in a time of climate crisis. These materials and electric power could have gone into sustainable transportation or carbon capture instead of fuelling some corporations monetary gain.
