Look at the size of that needle and you'll understand.
Oh, you're right. I used the Wikipedia article as source and it said:
Distribution of this use among sectors was: thermoelectric power generation 66.2%, manufacturing 13.6%, residential 9.0%, agriculture 4.7%, commercial and institutional 2.7%, water treatment and distribution systems 2.3%, mining 1.1%, and oil and gas extraction 0.5%.
Yet the previous sentence said this was about Canada. Whoops.
Though in Europe and North America, where a big chunk of data centers are typically built, agriculture tends to have a lower share with industry (including but not limited to power generation) having a bigger one:
Typically? Maybe in some arid climates without humidity but try using evaporative cooling during a thunderstorm and you'll find your data center shutting down from overheating.
~~70%~~ A large part of water usage in industrial nations comes from electricity generation. That's where data centers consume most of their water.
Edit: 70% is only true for Canada, globally agriculture consumes more. The US for example has ~40% each for agriculture and power generation.

Sadly that's not it, I was using offline maps.
I'm not entirely sure what's the exact issue, but it only really occurs when trying to change LoD quickly. E.g. clicking on an inter-city bus route and zooming out to see it in its entirety or zooming back in. From 10 km to 500 m can take 3-4 seconds which is enough to feel sluggish if you're doing it often.
Probably not the most popular use case but it can get frustrating after a while nonetheless
My problem with OsmAnd is that it's so very slow. Like, you zoom in and it takes seconds to display the map.
To be honest, EU politicians aren't idiots. Mostly.
It's such an easy thing to implement and it would significantly increase pro-EU sentiment and democratic participation of young people.
And the only one's who are being "harmed" are foreign companies (and Ubisoft). Gaming also does not have an all-powerful lobby.
It's such an easy win for EU politicians, they'd have to be as out-of-touch as British MPs to not seize that opportunity.
They don't use that much water through cooling. Or rather, evaporative cooling is rarely used because it's unreliable outside of dry, desert climates.
Rather, most of the water footprint comes from electricity generation (e.g. coal, gas, nuclear) which evaporate freshwater to spin turbines.
Normal radiators are the goto option to cool down heated water which can then be re-used.
It costs an arm and a leg! Or two.

He never said that. This quote is from William Pannapacker, a professor of American literature at Hope College in Holland, Michigan.
