Data centers are consuming more kilowatts than ever, but the price they pay for that electricity has risen only a little.

    The working class get the ‘get fucked’ tax on top of the costs. Companies get cheap power to make more money.

    I’d like to see this graph with the EU power costs. I pay AVG € 0,27 per kWh now. Used to be € 0,20 before the attack on Ukraine began. That’s a 35% increase.

        You think fucking over the working class is MAGA specific? Fucking us over is 100% bipartisan.

            That’s cute when liberals try to co-opt phrases they don’t know how to use.

            Are Russians in the room with you right now?

              No but they are all over your comments, it’s like you work for RT or something. You sure do repeat basically all their points ad nauseum.

        My electric bill last month would have been $1,700 at that rate. We would just have to freeze to death.
