If this doesn't require chevrons to lock and connect to remote gate through a wormhole, they can't call it Stargate. That's just lying otherwise

#13I do not understand why they chose Norway. I would choose a country where it is easy to build up a new power plant quickly with solar and wind, close to the site of the data center. Maybe they just have too much electricity up there that is not needed by the population or existing industry?

Yes, this is basically the case. It's quite expensive to transfer power across several degrees of latitude, and as a result, the price of power in the south of Norway is sometimes orders of magnitude higher than in the north.

I understand why they didn’t choose Germany: they didn’t want to buy the GPUs in cash and send the receipts via Fax.

Geothermal is a big deal in Norway as well.

#18North Norwegians will finally experience higher electricity prices like us in the south experience since a few years.
Increasing demand is the only reason anyone every developed more supply. And the future will obviously need more energy production. Development costs money so consumers will pay for it with higher prices but Norway just got new, large consumer to help foot the bill.

I thought it was pretty universally known that the project doesn't have and won't have sufficient funding?
And also that the vast majority of things Sam says are a lie?

We have about 99% hydro power, Iceland is the geothermal county.
