@KayseeColorado@universeodon.com Oh, I know exactly where they are. Microsoft just built a big one about a mile east of me. I can't see it from my home, mostly because there's a ridge between it and where I live. At night, I can see the glow over the ridge.The data center isn't 100% complete yet, but I'm wondering if they've started testing equipment and that's what I'm hearing. We have quite a few in my area including a bunch across the river, about 3 miles away. They've been around longer, though.

@mlanger@mastodon.world Years back I had a favorite camping spot. One year I had this weird hum- vibration thing that only I heard. Turns out an gas company put in a drilling rig over the next ridge. I had to stop going to that place, it left me feeling exhausted and stressed out. Seems the older I get the more sensitive to sound I get, or there's just a whole lot more un-natural sounds out there. Its depressing.
