I don't get it, he could provide free water heating to the neighborhood and get rid of active ventilation noise. Every joule accepted to heat cold water is a joule less to get rid off with fans.
Do you really think the Bitcoin mining firm would pay to retrofit all of their equipment for water cooling, and to install a massive hot water network, out of the goodness of their own hearts? I find that really unlikely.
(Plus: does the town even need the hot water? It's Texas, after all. During most of the year, residents need air conditioning much more than hot water...)
If anyone wants to know why the human race is doomed it’s because of precisely what this article describes:
Individual property owners having no desire to be part of a unified community in order to address an externality caused by a corporation exporting pollution.
That’s it. You can’t fix that which means independent human organizations can’t form that aren’t focused around direct financial benefit to the individual.
I wish the article had a quote from a resident who voted against it, saying why they did so.
Probably worried their taxes would go up.

Not to be unnecessarily mean to Texans, but I think this is more of a Texas problem than a humanity problem.
Perhaps Texas idealism means The Profits of the One outweigh Welfare of the Many.
Another possible interpretation is that: Profit alone makes the unethical, ethical.
A glib comment but the reality is that Texas is not that far off of the global mean
