Well, everyone, you can now submit a comment to let the FCC know what you think about SpaceX asking for 1 million satellites for "AI datacenters" whatever the fuck that means.

If anyone has time and energy to set up instructions for how to submit a comment to the FCC (it's really fucking complicated, on purpose, I'm sure), I would very much appreciate it! Otherwise I'll do it in the coming days.
-
@sundogplanets It's not going to work. That will be obvious long before he has all that many satellites up, and he'll move on to his next sick joke.
@lauren @sundogplanets It will probably destroy what it was meant to in the time it is being developed though. Just as Hyperloop was really meant to kill off high speed rail projects.

I am having a very hard time believing this is really happening. Fuck you, SpaceX, and fuck you, FCC. This is not regulation, this is a fucking joke, that will destroy our ability to use satellites for centuries.
@sundogplanets let me marh this badly...
At a launch a second they could have that sucker up in months. At a launch every hour it'd take more than a century. At a launch a day millenia. Assuming of course one satellite per launch. That's just the getting to orbit bit. Fabbing the satellites might well take longer. After of course the lead time to ensure hallucinating chatbots are not on the worse granola.

@sundogplanets Maybe that's what it's going to take to teach the world and especially the U.S. that the billionaires should have been loaded onto a rocket and shot right into the fucking sun

I appreciate any Americans that submit a complaint, but who exactly gave an American regulatory body authority over the whole of low Earth orbit and beyond?
Colonial theft.

Elon the illegal South African Nazi predator just can't stop pushing his unwanted stubby nub of a weenie in people's faces.
What a dirty pig.

@sundogplanets the good thing is that Elon Musk has never delivered on anything he's ever promised, and this would require rocket launches at such an wildly high pace that I don't think they could come close to pulling this off.
It's just to juice SpaceX IPO and then musk can be a trillionaire. If the next US administration comes to be, this plan is dumpstered for sure.

@sundogplanets How would a data center event work in outer space? Heat would build up. Unless I'm missing something and the idea is to have something super worse than regular DCs down here?

Remember the hole in ozone days ?
Sheesh .
Think it was after “ give hoot don’t pollute “ and just before acids rain.Anyway ,, Now we blast rocket fuel through it for the new computer science data barns.
. Interesting swings in folk ideology. -

@lauren @sundogplanets I think this one is about the IPO - he wants to pawn off SpaceX on the open market (especially now that he's rolled the other loser companies into it), and this is about hyping SpaceX. If the commentary were to kill the idea ASAP, it might help fubar the IPO, which would be good for all the rest of us.

@kiri @sundogplanets you’re not missing anything; this is absolutely the problem with data centers, structures famously constrained by their ability to reject heat, in space, a place famous for its insulative properties. It’s stupid.
Not to mention that data centers require maintenance and equipment replacement. This aspect of data centers is why companies decided not to put them in the ocean (where heat would be easier to reject). How do they think they’ll do maintenance? Or do the satellites just become trash after a few years?

RE
fucking joke, that will destroy our ability to use #satellites for centuriesAnything #SpaceX wants is probably crap bc #ElonMusk is the guy driving the bus
And another way to destroy the use of space satellite tech is to have #WW3 which is what will only make big tech richer, 🥵
@nomdeb
Thx 4 orig Prof. Sam boost -
You are way more optimistic than I.
They'd just argue over who is responsible and do nothing until we're Kessler'd. -
Most of the internet is underground, not over your head. There would be little impact on that front.
And what sattelites there are, are at different orbit heights than the proposal, limiting the impact further.

@Doomed_Daniel oh yeah, I can’t believe I forgot they have to be radiation-hardened, too!
-
@acm_redfox @kiri @sundogplanets Ice Particle Shotgun Missiles; the ice would hopefully melt under solar radiation and/or enter atmosphere after dislodging/shredding tf out of objects in orbit, maybe? First strike failed? More melting blammo ice cloud blasts. No lazers, grappling hooks, precise kenetic munitions, nukes, etc. Just a cloud of ice belched from high atmo from a dumb metal casing and a falling trajectory.
