Swedish Data Center Saves $1M a Year Using Seawater For Cooling

alphadogg writes "A data center in Sweden has cut its energy bills by a million dollars a year using seawater to cool its servers, though jellyfish are an occasional hazard. Interxion, a collocation company in the Netherlands that rents data center space in 11 countries, uses water pumped from the Baltic Sea to cool the IT equipment at its facilities in Stockholm. The energy used to cool IT equipment is one of the costliest areas of running a data center. Companies have traditionally used big, mechanical chillers, but some are turning to outside air and evaporative techniques as lower-cost alternatives."

    My, my, my! Your cute, fetid cock has taken a liking to my rancid, disgusting asshole. Maybe your cock wants to smooch my bowels? I might even have a few brown gifts to fart out of my repugnant asshole should you do the inevitable and decide to lust after my rectum! What say you?

    Let me start off by saying that I love rancid rectums, and I also love cum farts. Do you see where I'm going with this? You're someone who can give me both of those things with the aid of my fetid cock. My smelly cock will smooch your putrid bowels and let loose a tidal wave of sticky goodies! Then, what all is said and done, you can fart out some feces covered in cum, and my childhood dream will finally be fulfilled! What say you?

    Even just giving your rectum a cursory glance allows me to tell that it's rancid as fuck. Want to know what I like the most? Rancid assholes. You, my dear walking rectum, have just what I'm looking for! When I stick my fetid cock into your disgusting asshole, I just know that your feces and my cum are going to mix together in ways even the greatest scientists in the world never thought possible! What say you?

    Well, you wanted to jam your putrid penis into my rancid asshole; here it is. My asshole is open to you. Why are you hesitating? You adore rancid assholes. Are you hesitating because you're so overjoyed that you can't believe such an amazing opportunity has presented itself to you? All you have to do is shove your fetid cock right in and my warm feces will take care of the rest. What say you?
