Elon should do I it. Really. Either we get to see what noone understands yet: How economically viable server cooling at scale in space looks like or we see Elon faceplant financially yet again.
Either way, we win.
Democrats immediately win three of the four seats on the Moon and sweep the Sky Council.
We can also launch Elmo into space and… Well, just forget about him, good riddance
Please, waste your money on something that needs several football fields big heat radiators per gigawatt. And cannot replace a hard drive without launching a technician into space.
I want Elon Musk in space, aimlessly drifting around.
Just confirming what I’ve suspected: the point of the space datacenter thing is to keep the tools of oppression out of reach of angry mobs with torches and pitchforks.
He will do absolutely anything to not spend money on making the world he lives in a better place for all. So build a data center in space, just add a little apartment for yourself. Imagine looking down on the whole world! What power!
Is there somewhere we can donate to help make sure he
fries in a coronal mess ejectionlives the dream he’s always wanted?With our current tech, a Mars mission pretty much 100% certain a one-way trip.
Common elon, wheres your “move fast and break stuff” spirit? Lets get you suited up and on a rocket asap!
Imagine how rapidly he could innovate on a constant acceleration vector out of the solar system!
Elmo will have to move to Floriderp.
kinda hard to do that when he invested so much time and money on blexas
lol let him waste his money on an impossible technology
He doesn’t waste his money on his companies. He wastes tax payer funding on them. And when that started drying up, he took it to the stock market, convinced the exchange to fast track adding his company to being eligible for indexes, and then wasted our 401ks on it. He’s the ultimate con man.
Yes but that only lasted weeks before collapsing. The end is coming, he is now trying to roll Twitter into spacex. It’s where his real riches are. When it eventually goes, so does his money
That’s what he does. When one company starts having issues, his other company will bail it out or outright buy it. It’s a constant shell game.
I think my point is that his wealth is based on the game and like anyone who passes bad checks between accounts, the reckoning eventually catches up. He’s going to lose big over the next few years.
And kill us all by destroying the ozone layer again? No thank you.
I’m not sure what it has to do with the ozone, please explain.
One of the major environmental issues with launching mega-constellations is the environmental impact of their end-of-life deorbiting. As satellites reenter the atmosphere, they create aluminum oxide particulate that has a negative impact on the ozone layer.
Because, of course they do. We always have to find ways to destroy our beautiful planet, as if a new Earth-like planet is just a skip away.
Thanks
Good luck dumbfuck, tell me how easy it is to service, maintain and repair them when you inevitably overheat them, or don’t have the proper shielding so components burn out or degrade beyond useful parameters.
Mars is all red, maybe you want to restart those plans and take your flock of sheeple with you as soon as possible?
Wow. He really is as dumb as I thought. As much as I would appreciate him investing the kind of money that would be required to orbit a viable data center into things humanity actually needs, I would also be perfectly happy witnessing him blow hundreds of billions on a fruitless project. Dumb shit doesn’t even understand basic physics and thermodynamics. It just demonstrates how he is an “ideas man” while actual smart people carry him on their shoulders. Wish he would just fuck off to mars already.
Wow. He really is as dumb as I thought.
no, his shareholders are dumb.
While he’s not smart enough to understand what a tough problem cooling servers in space would be, at least some of the engineers working on it might invent some interesting technology while failing to build a datacenter in space. Which is more than I can say about his other expenses like failing to buy elections, or failing to only have sons.
For a man who keeps talking about colonizing Mars, Musk seems remarkably surprised that you can’t permanently colonize a state’s politics. Spending hundreds of millions on campaigns didn’t come with a warranty, and moving SpaceX again won’t change how voting works.
Skynet, the clue is in the name.
