Why the data center you dread might never even be built | Equity Podcast
The data center boom is running into serious real-world obstacles, from widespread local opposition and permitting delays to a scramble for electricity.

It breaks the uniformity of the standard blue and white theme. It’s silly but I can kind of understand it, humans like patterns and themes, when that gets randomly switched up it feels wrong. And also the fact that without RCS, receiving videos and audio messages from android phones is known to be awful quality, so I’m sure that has a lot to do with the disdain towards the green bubbles.

It’s not about the color green, the pics and videos are low quality because SMS compresses the media. That’s why people have been asking for RCS support on Apple devices.

The most American problem of them all. I suspect most of the world is using 3rd party apps for messaging anyway, which as a consequence, preserves “homogeneity”

It’s neither android’s problem nor apple’s. Each company decides what features they are going to offer and how they will differentiate themselves from any other company. It’s our job not to be assholes and not to judge others from their bubble color.
