MEMPHIS, Tennessee — Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company is belching smog-forming pollution into an area of South Memphis that already leads the state in emergency department visits for asthma.
None of the 35 methane gas turbines that help power xAI’s massive supercomputer is equipped with pollution controls typically required by federal rules.
The company has no Clean Air Act permits.

This is why he bought the election.
And why Republicans have been working so hard to destroy the EPA, clean water act, etc.
Shortened lives, hastened climate change, and stunted development is a small price to pay for being able to see a nude version of any photo posted to xitter.
We’ll 12ft.io didnt work for that one, would you be able to copy the contents over?
Need to see more people do the nudify thing to the manosphere dudes.
Unfortunately, not many people are willing to step in the horrific realm of nudified fat bastards.
With the Winkie Magnification slider set to None.

Not in Memphis, because that’s predominantly Black Americans.
Usually the Southern Republican government grants permits for these types of polluting facilities in non-White communities.
I really want people to roll up on the factory, shoot the management, and then shut it down.
This shit is a crime against the environment and humanity.
Even microscopic debris can completely destroy turbines and turbines often do not have filters for it creates a severe performamce penalty.
Just saying… This doesn’t have anything to do with this story in fact I didn’t read it. I just like saying turbine facts.
Pocket sand!
This is why there are so many stories about planes being grounded because someone tossed a coin in, according to superstition, or a nut or something fell into the compressor.
The whole turbine has to be taken apart to get the coin or it might dent something, and the whole engine then does something most exciting when the pilot tries to run it up to service speeds, as a result of the imbalance.
AI is literally cancer
