This has to be the dumbest reply I've had in a while.

I said below ambient, not below freezing. You can only ever cool to ambient temperature with a radiator.

You really don't like being wrong, do you?

Did you miss the part about millions of dollars in energy savings per year?

They kinda do, they say that, because the coolant is so efficient at transferring energy, a data center will not need evaporative cooling.

It would be very interesting to know what the upper limit of air temperature would be.

Existing systems rely on air to pass heat to a radiator, which then relays heat to the ambient air outside. In order to keep temperatures inside the data centre at sane levels, the cooling water needs to be below ambient temperature, which can be done with either chillers or evaporative cooling. Running a chiller takes a lot of electricity to say the least.

By exchanging heat between the chip and the cooling water directly, it seems they're claiming they can just have a heat exchanger with no chiller or evaporative cooling required. Which is probably true, it's why over clocked gaming PCs are often water cooled.

It sounds like genuinely cool technology in multiple ways. A water block on every single major component, and no cooling fans at all.

That would also be a very quiet room, rather than having thousands of tiny little fans screaming all the time.

Leave it at the office then.

This is someone deliberately saying something racist to make people angry. Thankfully, Lemmy users are smart enough to see it for what it is.

Right, guys?

Oh god please be the start of the bubble going pop.

I'm so fucking sick of hearing about AI all the time.

Their argument was that companies don't care about efficiency, they just want to save money. Without realising they're the same thing. As far as I can tell, they were arguing with themselves.

Are you talking about evaporative cooling? Because this new system still very much uses water, in a closed loop.

And I'm aware water is cheap, it falls out of the sky.

Every red arrow is a tanker.

Why do people keep acting like a company wanting to save money is a revelation? It's so blindingly obvious, there's no need to tell everyone all the time?

Surely you must realise heat transfer efficiency and cost are closely linked, right? You haven't told us anything we don't already know. Of course this is about saving money, that's already obvious.

Do you genuinely think I didn't know businesses want to save money? Why are you telling me this?

Source? They're not taking the path Iran was mandating during the blockade, they're all the way on the other side.

There are multiple tankers transiting the strait with AIS on right at this moment though.

I'm not sure what argument or point you're trying to make here. Why do you think they're using water, exactly? And surely you must realise how efficiency and cost are linked?

I think a bit more reading is in order. The ceasefire agreement states that Iran will not charge a toll for the 60 day negotiation period.

Also, Iran saying they control the strait does not mean they're charging a toll.

The "reap the whirlwind" line is actually quoting the old testament, which only makes that quote even more badass.
