Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

Almost like building homes with grass lawns, golf courses, farming almonds, and otherwise trying to live as if you're in a temperate climate in the middle of the fucking desert is really stupid

Data centers are marketing it as a plus

Arizona’s arid desert climate dramatically reduces the need for energy-intensive mechanical cooling. With low humidity, minimal rainfall, and over 300 days of sunshine a year, facilities can lean on free-air cooling systems, resulting in significant cost savings over time.

So far, Arizona has the 7th most data centers of any state, and Phoenix has the 2nd most of any city
