Right. voice-verified

That we're all living in. voice-verified

I don't know. voice-verified

And there's so many different variables. voice-verified

It's that, hey, if we say that we're going to limit the amount of generators, interesting, a lot of designs too, you know, depending upon, you know, how they're, if it's a dual fed site, when it comes to the dual fed substation, that the substation is dual fed, whatever that might be, that's going to cut down on what we're seeing too is a lack of UPSs. voice-verified

So now you have generators affected, UPSs affected, you have less heat. voice-verified

you know, potentially in some of these electrical rooms, you need less heat rejection, AKA less mechanical cooling, right? voice-verified

Less mechanical cooling, less electrical load. voice-verified

Well, then does that mean that we take that difference and we pump it into compute, then exofactoring creating more electrical load and then you play that game? voice-verified

There's so many different variables that by reducing redundancy, you just ripple effect across. voice-verified

And like you said, like a broken record, if 40% of the market's doing that, regardless of how much the other 60% is growing, that's going to impact the supply chain and everybody in that ecosystem. voice-verified

If I'm a generator supplier and I wanted to get into the chillers, this might be an interesting time. voice-verified

Could be very interesting. voice-verified

Or a horrible bet. voice-verified

Don't listen to me. voice-verified

Mm-hmm. voice-verified

I mean, without that, it is a needleless compass, right? voice-verified

It's just there. voice-verified

It's a magnet. voice-verified

It's interacting with the environment, but you can't really tell where you're going. voice-verified
