The opposite would probably be worse, honestly.

No one said it's fine, it was just wrong information. Are corrections unwelcome here or are we just upset we can't be angry about the thing that was wrong?

No disagreement here, just want to make sure we get the nuance into the conversation where appropriate.

To be fair, in the pursuit of accuracy, they have said it's all private funding taking care of it with some coming from strongarm lawsuits. I think that's easy to verify with receipts, no details released yet. The honourable thing to have done would be to fund government paychecks with that money, and that would probably be a good move politically, but obviously not happening.

I get it, truly, but we've been dejecting heat to the ocean for a good while. Ocean water cools marine engines and equipment, and heck we use rivers to cool lots of things -- even reactors, which ends up back in the ocean. Data center cooling might be one of the more responsible uses because it's (hopefully) not leeching petroleum or radioactive byproducts into the water.

I'm actually a little more upset now than when I started this comment.

Does this mean any "both" situation is actually an either-or, because the choice is still between both or nothing? I don't like that

Marry a lady!

Also, pedantry: activate! It's not an either-or situation -- it's a both situation.

Once you get to the second semicolon in the same sentence, I'm calling it journalistic malpractice.
