Data+Centers keep popping up and a lot of people are concerned, frustrated and even enraged.

A data+center can be quite a great technological asset for its owners, but a perceived deficit by common folk.

What would a Krell data center look like? The+great+subterraneous+machine+in+Forbidden+Planet. Their machine was the only functioning huge system remaining. Eventually, it might have required too much energy from the planet, thus causing a tremendous imbalance and then a chain reaction into destruction.

The Rise of Machine-Driven Market Behaviour and Occult Power Structures

 https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2026-05-19/part-3-rise-machine-driven-market-behaviour 

Once you understand that world events are influenced by supernatural forces, what seems bizarre begins to make sense. Filmmaker Sean Stone on...the occult. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lthBJP3wMLk , https://www.youtube.com/@TuckerCarlson 

Since ancient times some people have used magic to influence, effect or manipulate reality.

Someone wrote a story about an ET-AI Data Center and then a classic Sci-Fi movie was made about it back in the 1950s. https://www.grg.org/charter/Krell2.htm That movie is, Forbidden_Planet An ancient civilization built an immense underground machine like an AI data center that could do so much more than just generate 3-D printed things. It could create interactive monstrous energy entities from the Krell's mind. Thus, there vast underground AI data center was instrumental in causing the Krell civilization to gradually self destruct. Eventually, their whole planet was destroyed as the machine kept requiring more and more power from the planet.

The Data Center Monolith

The Monolith was A.C.C.'s depiction of a hybrid-mainframe-topological-quantum-supercomputer-server. Whether in the year 2001 or 2010 such quantum machines still only exist at the theoretical concept level, as does time travel.

The old IBM tower is located next to the Marina_City complex as AMA_Plaza.

The former IBM Building at 330_North_Wabash, Chicago was designed to look like a 700 foot tall monolith computer.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMA_Plaza#IBM_occupancy

"For the time it was built the IBM Building housed an extraordinarily large number of computers, which required an advanced level of environmental engineering. The walls were sealed by a plastic thermal barrier, and a reverse refrigeration system was used to reclaim heat given off by machines and people." http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=ibmbuilding-chicago-il-usa ,

So far the iP5 isn't quite shaped like a pocket monolith computer phone, but the iP5 has a lot of interesting features & potential. The Android phones don't seem to offer a monolith version either. Perhaps because its better to have rounded corners, but some people still might like to have a monolith phone. However, that option may have to wait quite a while until one can carry a room temperature, superconductor, Quantum+Computer in their pocket.
