Yeah saltwater is really annoying to deal with, so the setup+maintenance would be more expensive. But not impossible of course. Nuclear subs for example use ocean water for cooling. I think one solution is a closed loop with fresh water through all the servers and a heat exchanger to the salt water loop

Can you use salt water or would that fuck up piping?

If you evaporate it quickly enough it should not be a big issue I think

....where do you think the salt goes when the water evaporates?

Salt evaporates too
at ~1400°C but that's neither here nor there

I do appreciate the dig at AI, but accelerating climate change and draining aquifers ain’t gonna help with your desert island bro
