🛬 Pillaging old plane engines to power my bad pun generator

｢ To make jet engines suitable for use as power generators, they are modified with an expanded turbine section to convert engine thrust into shaft power, a series of struts and supports to mount them on a concrete deck or steel frame, and new controls. Following assembly, the engines can supply 48MW of capacity ｣

"Tier 1 Datacentre" sounds really impressive until you realise you've just described the linen closet of the average r/homelab user.

"What’s a #datacenter made of?? There are 3 main components; the #building and land at roughly a quarter of the cost, all the #powersystems, wiring, cooling, racking, etc. at about 40% of the cost, and then the #GPUs themselves at about 35% of the cost. I’m assuming that the building depreciates over 30 years, the chips are obsolete in 3 to 5 years, and then the other stuff lasts about 10 years on average. Call it a 10-year #depreciation curve on average for an AI datacenter. Which leads you to the first shocking revelation; the #AI datacenters to be built in 2025 will suffer $40 billion of annual depreciation, while generating somewhere between $15 and $20 billion of revenue. The depreciation is literally twice what the revenue is."

🌍 We are proud to announce that the DECODES project (Datacenter Energy Consumption Optimisation by DNS EvaluationS) has been selected by the ANR (French National Research Agency) as part of its call for projects launched at the end of 2024.

🔋 Objective: to optimise the energy consumption of data centers by assessing the role and impact of the DNS (Domain Name System).

Ok people I hear you: you want a photo of Duck in the datacenter. While I can't give you the original I can give you a realistic video re-enactment!

I've tried to stay accurate but was limited to available materials in my home workshop. Most obvious change is that one of our chicken (a hen, to stay as close to reality as possible) is cosplaying as Duck. Otherwise I think we've captured the datacenter setting rather well.

I hope this satisfies your curiosity.
