Comment on How do AI data centers manage to *consume* water, but when I cool my house, my A/C *makes* water?

And what happens to the heat? Heat can't just magically disappear which means water can't cool without heat being able to dissipate somewhere. So it would have to dissipate heat into the dome. What happens to the dome if you keep pumping hot vapor into the dome? It heats up. If it heats up the water vapor stops cooling and the entire cooling system stops working.
I'm not saying it couldn't work in theory, I'm saying it doesn't work in practice because the dome would have insanely big, maybe the size of small nation big.
