I thought the billion dollars of excrement they bought was OpenAI
self-five 🙏 ohhhhhh
You’re off by a factory of 13x
I’m surprised they had to outsource that as they have been producing so much shit for decades.
I always said it. Micro$oft is full of shit
so the AI stuff causes too much CO2, instead of fixing their own hardware, the best they could do is to offset that CO2 amount by burying shit?
It’s poetic… MS AI slings out massive amounts of shit and now the company gets to bury some of it to compensate
Yes, burying fertilizer traps biomass CO2 and then they can use that as carbon credit equivalent to claim CO² neutrality.
Of course, there’s a reason why fertilizer is an inexpensive source of fixated carbon biomass and this means all fertilizer will increase in price by the amount value of it’s CO2 carbon credit equivalentThen maybe the buried fertilizer will become so valuable that it can be dug out and sold as fertilizer again.
I don’t see any problems with this plan !

Between the methane that generates and easily obtained phosphorous trapped down there, that’s strictly a matter of time, unfortunately.

except the part the planet may be uninhabitable for humans by then due to the massive CO2 we are spewing to get slop from AI…
other than that, no problem at all
Sure, sure but !

Meanwhile I’m out here pooping for free like a chump!
Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime. That’s why I poop on company time.
Microsoft buys back all the crap they sold us for years.
Microsoft burying the steaming pile of poop that is teams will be enough to “offset” all their data centers.

What about the nutrients in the waste? Why not compost it, capture the methane offgassing, and store that?
using human waste as fertilizer isn’t a good idea.
human waste contains everything that a person has consumes. this includes disease causing pathogens and parasites.
if it were to be used as a fertilizer it would need to go through multiple stages of expensive processing and testing to ensure safety. it’s far more cost effective and safer to use food by-product like fish cuttings to create fertilizers.

Treated waste water sludge is very commonly used here in Sweden albeit using anaerobic digestion rather than regular composting. High temperature composting would kill any pathogens so you can absolutely get permission to use a composting waste system in small scales. For larger scale waste treatment it is with anaerobic digestion, as mentioned.
The captured methane is typically used for fuel, e.g., in public transport.
As far as I know the sludge used for fertilizer needs to be certified under something called REVAQ. Some controversy does exist surrounding safe levels of the various harmful substances and perhaps PFAS in particular.
Not to forget: It contains a ton of medicine as well. If you want to have antibiotics in your salad, use human waste as fertilizers.
you’re absolutely right, I forgot about those and it’s probably worse than the parasites.
Probably mucroplastics too?
But what do you do with the methane, can’t story it and if you burn it, you release the CO² which was the point of burying fertilizer while it’s CO² carbon credit value is less than the price of the fertilizer itself.
So this is what they plan to do with all the game studios they bought over the years.
How many turds can you buy for a billion dollars. . ?
When the planet burns down, the will be the ones who “did something about it”
Idiots!! That stuff ain’t worth shit!
Damn from that photo it looks like some people have a seriously high fiber diet.
FIFO if you know what i mean 💩
