Comment on Inside the 'Nightmare' Health Crisis of a Texas Bitcoin Town
dhork@lemmy.world 5 months agoNo, noise ordinances are the entire point, because the excessive noise is the only thing that can be causing these problems in the community. There are thousands of data centers all over the world, with fans running 24/7, and staff on hand 24/7 to tend to them. They don’t have these problems, but I bet their employers mandate good hearing protection.
There is no statute local police can use to shut it down, because Texans love their freedom so much, and elect freedom-loving politicians who abhor any regulations at all. Maybe if they paint the trailers black, the cops will think they are a threat and shoot them or something.

When lives are in immediate danger, police must act immediately. Isn’t that a general principle, independent of small details?
What you are saying comes down to “murder is allowed unless there is a specific law against your specific method of murdering” and this appears still quite unbelievable to me.
