 Commes just cannot help themselves. What a retarded state of affairs 
 20% increase will make them wonder what the noise was all about 
 LOL! rugged themselves… 
 Hey Norway! Stop shouting yourself in the foot 🤣 🤣 🤣 https://m.primal.net/KrqN.png  
 Reason: The site was shut down because the Hadsel municipality didn't renew its operating permit, following ongoing noise complaints from locals.
Q: why the facility ignored the noise problem? Not that we don’t have better cooling tech. 
 and sound insulation wasn't an option? 
 The noise complaints are understandable though. Immersion seems the way forward for miners located near population centers. I wonder if it was just used as an excuse by the gov to shut them down though.
