@sundogplanets not that it matters, but it also wouldn't budge a thing in the kardashev scale, as it's supposed to measure how much power civilization can harness, and they certainly would pale in comparison to the total amount of earth based computing power, not to mention all the power used in non-computing usage
@Kiloku @sundogplanets The Kardashev scale is meaningless drivel. It's just some dude making shit up in the 1960s to get government funding from the Soviets. Anyone who references the scale like it's meaningful, ESPECIALLY in an official filing, is not a serious person.
All of these tech idiots need to be bullied aggressively until they go away. We need to locate that idiot from Pretoria's childhood bullies and get some historical data to kick things off.

SpaceX Eyes 1 Million Satellites for Orbital Data Center Push
In a late Friday FCC filing, the company mentions deploying a staggering 'one million satellites' in orbits ranging from 500 kilometers to 2,000km.

@sundogplanets I kind of think the project is cool as fuck and makes a ton of sense. Fuck that guy obviously

@sundogplanets 30x more satellites than objects that we are currently tracking in orbit? (Including debris from stuff that blew or was blown up)
One company?
Well that's fucking ridiculous.

@fiend_unpleasant @sundogplanets that doesn’t mean it’s not wrong. They are possibly damaging our atmosphere, they ARE ruining our night sky, they are increasing risk of damage to people when they fall out of the sky, they are risking damage to flights beyond our atmosphere…
That one government has the right to speak for all of us is crap.
@CStamp @sundogplanets I'm sorry I thought calling Elon Musk a giant child molesting, aspie supremacist, queef would have conveyed that I think he is wrong to do this.
It's important to be factual when we are trying to stop shit heads from doing shit head things so they can't argue back.
How do you think they could damage the atmosphere? And again the US government has jurisdiction over the Ka band in the US, not space. Anyone could decide they hate the new satellites and shoot them down.

@sundogplanets Not to mention this is a terrible idea. Hard drives don't last that long and now we are gonna have to launch data recovery teams every time an orbiting RAID array goes down? Not practical at all. How is it these people get to say they are pragmatists and their plans are constantly more and more asinine.

@sundogplanets oh this surely won't render the planet's orbit unusable for generations, no way.
But also, are you surprised one bit? This is the company that sent a car in space for the lolz -

@sundogplanets We aren’t even a Level 1 civilization. Also, this shows their complete lack of understanding of what that scale actually means.

@sundogplanets I'm sure nothing could possibly go wrong with that. Completely risk free with no drawbacks whatsoever.

The radio astronomer Nikolai Kardashev developed a scale describing hypothetical aliens by the amount of energy they used as a guide for what SETI searches could and could not find.
A "Kardashev II" level would involve using the entire energy output of the Sun by dismantling planets and turning them into solar panels.
Which has no resemblance to this particular bit of vaporware.
@michael_w_busch @sundogplanets Trust techbros not only to envision littering on a cosmic scale, but also to equate it with a theoretical hallmark of a hyperadvanced civilization.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell@masto.ai @sundogplanets@mastodon.social Hint: Ask yourself why datacenters use massive bundles of wired or fiber connections internally rather than WiFi.
-
@GhostOnTheHalfShell @sundogplanets Plus the big question of how you cool a GPU datacenter surrounded by the vacuum of space.
But then, you probably don't really need to know anything about datacenters to realize that moving them into space is just going to make every aspect of them more difficult and expensive...
@ids1024 @GhostOnTheHalfShell @sundogplanets Exactly. The cooling issue alone should rule out space for data centres.
-
@utf_7 @troed @sundogplanets, my thoughts are on the biggest resource consumption of a datacenter: Cooling and Energy, which is very taxing right now on our existing capabilities.
We'd shift from constant CO2 emitting energy consumption on earth to solar in space and move away from using fresh water for cooling, which is becoming more and more scarce.
@ppulfer @utf_7 @troed @sundogplanets Yeah, Elon might get away with ignoring laws here on Earth but you can’t do that with the laws of physics. Space is not full of magical infinite solar energy or cooling.
This is just a grift to keep the investment for his companies flowing in.

@mycotropic @sundogplanets and orbital days centers are a horrible idea
@oblomov @mycotropic @sundogplanets this is clearly just advertising BS. In addition to being a generally bad idea, 500-1000 km is well into the Van Allen belts, so the radiation makes this even more stupid
