Waste heat from these things is negligible compared to the sun heat. I know people love to hate on these things, but come on...

Well you know, data centers are optional. The sun is not.

What a disingenuous comparison, do you hear yourself?

Comments on the internet are also optional, yet you do it

Not sure it was a disingenuous comparison. If they’re saying the heat from a DC is drop in the bucket provided by the sun (in a given area), then that heat would indeed be negligible. On the other hand, if that heat comes in water form, and upsets the ecosystem (in a given area), then that would be NOT negligible. Not really about optionality in either case.
