A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!

One important point missing from this debate.

If we build a lot of behind the meter solar power for data centers, it doesn't raise grid costs. Sun supply unaffected.

If we build a lot of behind the meter gas power for data centers, it still raises grid costs due to higher gas prices for all.
