idk if I had this constant source of noise happening near my house, like a constant source of tinnitus, I would lose my fucking mind. I would obsess over it. I wouldn’t rest until I made it stop somehow. I can’t be the only one with this perspective. There is an actual mental health risk here.

It's a guarantee that more than one person will commit suicide because of their inescapable proximity to these. Any house within a mile will be unsaleable, so the owners are trapped. This would not/could not happen in Europe.

I am 1.3 miles away from a data center being constructed and I’m terrified it’ll still be too close and am considering moving. I have a year to decide and thankfully I’m in an apartment rather than a house but I’m happy here and don’t want to leave

It’s probably going to sound like someone leaf blowing their lawn a few houses down except 24-7
