Mandate that all new data centers be built at least 1 meter underground, have a closed loop cooling system, produce their own independent energy, and pay a dividend to members of the community in which it exists.
Putting them underground reduces cooling costs and keeps the land above available for green space. A closed loop system would force them to use the same water to cool the systems without chewing through the fresh water supply. They’d have to produce their own energy through renewable sources. Solar, wind, geothermal, I don’t care figure…

A hotel with two-way mirrors only. The people on the mirror side pay 0.1x the normal rate, the people on the see-through side pay 100x the normal rate. The mirror side gets a cut of the see-through side’s rate.
If you stay in the mirrored side and no one wants to watch you, well at least you get a cheap room wherever you’re staying. If someone is willing to pay to watch you, you make good money and some voyeur gets their rocks off. Room allocation is random to avoid stalkers, except for maybe…

Ok here’s the idea (one of the *least* crazy ideas I’ve posted here, I think this one is pretty solid but I also appreciate the open-mindedness and good humour of this sub): Cities with existing neighborhoods come with an existing set of expectations for how existing residents will be consulted about new developments. It’s basically…
Nicotine should be put in toothpaste to help people brush their teeth more often
Many people forget to brush their teeth or just overall have a hard time doing it due to depression, ADHD, or other factors and I think a way that could help that is if toothpaste 1) comes in more flavors (for adults) besides just mint and the occasional wildcards such as cinnamon or anise. Flavors…
