    I can see it doing well for heat in the winter. That’s how Cheyenne Mountain worked. DC can be so miserably muggy in the summer, so I sure hope they have a way of keeping that bunker livable for humans if it’s dual-use.

    On the GPU thing, I was under the impression AI hardware were ASICs, but I didn’t look into it. I guess if they are GPU and were sold off to add to the power of Folding@Home (at one point, it was the largest supercomputer but not sure of the state of things now) and maybe really supercharge a lot of research…

      DC is literally a drained swamp, yes it’s funny, yes it’s fairly symbolic that it’s currently doing it’s best to reflood itself as the climate and multiple hundred year old infrastructure fails.

      Oh no that’s crypto mining. AI has special cores in the GPUs but they’re still good for general use, same workstation cards you would run CAD or physics simulations on.

      Bunker isn’t dual use. It’s just servers. Living quarters bunker under the whitehouse is already there.
