- Even if this was an economically sound proposal, the next X45 magnitude solar flare might be a nasty surprise for reliability metrics… - Edit: at some point, this would also likely contribute to Kessler Syndrome, but at least we’d have chat bots. 
- Me too. I’ll even make them full AI. - Please send me $2 billion by Tuesday. My salary as yetAnotherUser CEO & CTO is a modest 20 million/year. Results are expected to appear by 2030. - Hey Gemini, make me a business plan, a marketing site and some presentations with fancy graphs. 
 
- In before someone wants to reboot a server and the hypervisor is unresponsive. 
- Welp, that’s a fuckin stupid idea. Next! 
- Yeah me too! Give me money. 
- Free advice: The economics don’t work out. - We just need to invent space construction, cheap fusion power, autonomous robotics, improve AI and set up astroid mining first, then it’ll be a snap. - Honestly, it’s hard to figure out what the first step in that chain is. If you want to start up industry in space, great, there are lot of potential benefits to that. But where do you start? - Within the next 50 years I do expect a broad sector of space industry to emerge, but I really can’t predict what the first opportunities might be. Still, we can poke fun at it all we want right now, but I suspect a great many people will be working in space 50 years from now. 
 
 
- Getting rid of the heat is going to be an issue for that… along with the massive pollution from the many launches required to get this in orbit. - The heat will just dissipate in the air, and they can launch it at night when it’s colder. Science! - /s in case, there are a few mouth breathers out today 
- I’m pretty sure they’re aware of the need for radiators. They’ve probably designed satellites before. 
 
- Data centers in the ocean didn’t work out. This doesn’t seem smarter - Wasn’t the Mocrosoft test run very successful? 
- The Chinese have done it apparently. - I didn’t realize there was a paywall, I use the bypass paywalls clean extension. 
 
 
 
- Imagine getting sent up because a pos rj45 cable got hit by a micrometeorite - Because they swore the server was powered on… - Back when the capacitor plague hit I had to manage locating & replacing over 500 motherboards in the datacenter of my then-employer. Imagine if a hardware glitch like that happened in one of these. - I had some of these bad capacitors blow in my video card, back in the day. I was extremely proud of myself for managing to order some replacement capacitors and soldering them in myself. - The most impressive part might be that I ordered the right items. I knew nothing about electronics repair at the time, I just wanted to be able to play World of Warcraft again. 
- I think you have the start of a good plotline for a sf comedy. 
 
 
 
- Isn’t this how Skynet started? - No, it started when a scriptwriter came up with an idea for a movie that would sell a lot of tickets. 
 
- Do you want furries in space?? - Bcs that is how you get furries in space. 
- Now Elon can have his own death star! 
- FUCK OFF Thank you - > People complain about the environmental footprint of data centers. - > Companies attempt to move the data centers outside the environment. - > People complain even harder. - What do you want?
