The initial cost for a dark fibre on a power pool is very low and can give you low latency and high bandwidth. Starlink antenna needs a lot more energy and has a high montly cost. That shouldn't be very economically for long.

And to add to this: They still have packet loss when they switch the satelites every 1-4 minutes.

For something relevant? Why would they do this? Dark fibers is an easy thing and you need to put power to these remote towers anyway.

Lets be honest here, Trump attacked Iran for 2-3 basic reasons: 1. he thought it would go like venezuela 2. he did this for his business partners. Iran in its pre Trump state existed with the Khamenei family for quite a long time.

The smart people don't care what the endgoal is. They are happily enjoying themselves building hightec. And they earn a lot of money doing so. Elon Musk on the other hand has a construct of multiply billion dollar companies he has to f

5 years is still 5 years and Musk needs A LOT of payload for SpaceX to justify 1 Trillion dollars. This 1 Trillion Dollar has to be translated to either sending up A LOT of foreign payload OR his payload; All of this payload = new Satelites

My problem is not the doing thing but the economy of it. We are nowere near any resource limitation on planet earth for AI Datacenters. Musk sells this story because he has Starship which needs payload to make financial sense. The payload d

I'm not rejecting the basic idea in itself. There is nothing in this idea which we as humans can't do today. No issues here. Its just so much more expensive than just doing it in a dessert and putting fibre and solar panels and ba

Why was this flagged? Its clearly stating real numbers and I do make a clear point: Space is a 700 Billion dollar business split between building the stuff you want to send up, the 'sending up' part, and the operations part. Space

For china its a future investment. Its R&D, an image topic and its the job of a state anyway to do fundamental R&D. Google has so much money, I don't know why they are doing this, perhaps because they can, because the people in

Of course it works, the question is how this would look like and if its financial feasable. You make a H100, ship it to a space dock, load it onto a rocket (rocket requires fuuel, the rocket, etc.) send it up, deploy it, monitor it live 24&

Its not always on. Its only 'always' on if you would orbit the sun which starlink can't do, it has to orbit the earth. This only works in a certain constelation which would create a halo around our planet, without clear under

Whats your critisism with 'brownish stuff'? That space is free? Space doesn't disrupt anything? Like sending up a lot of satelites doesn't hurt/poisens our atmosphere? That space debris doesn't matter? Disrupti

Microsoft did that already and they canceled this 'idea' because it was too hard to maintain that setup XD

Just go to Google Maps. Just do it. Type in Arizona, or new mexico, texas whatever. Do you see all this brownish stuff? Yeah thats just empty land with A LOT of solar. So in the long term, what do you think is cheaper and easier to maintain

He again mentions data center in space. He has to be the biggest richest idiot on the planet. It should be a lot cheaper to just buy massive solar (wait, couldn't he just make them himself with his tesla roofs?) and batteries (which Te

Its not valid critique at all. And its disrespectful to people who create proper content and do the work.

And? then keep it for yourself. Why do i have to read your ignorant comment? You complain about their writing style, no one forced you to read, which you could summarize with an AI if you even cared for the conent but no. And i read A LOT a

There is a difference between blindly consuming something and consuming something you need to consume anyway. At least i'm not buying pants every month. Btw. you know who is buying my stuff? My wife :P

Sry to say this, but I honestly just want a working shopping AI model. I want to make a picture from me, add perhaps height and one or a second other metric, then i want it to generate styles for me, finetune it with me and then it helps me

Finally! When i tried obsidian and discoverd that the data table thing was not build in but some plugin which has full access, i deleted Obsidian quickly after. But you are only 7 people? Crazy :D

I'm happy to endulge in a good discussion. My argument is not that deep for sure, but you are only referencing Bretton woods. The problem with US petro dollar is always the same: we don't know what would have been if it wouldn&#x2

the context is it. it requires a certain amount of knowledge and skill. IT people earn above avg. Its not far fetched.

Probably very true, very simplified. The best strategy then would be to know when the retirement fund money stops doing this due to age pyramid collapse i would assume.

What is your comment adding to this discussion? Do you want to say, that a specific small group of people are positive about a surge in energy costs? How does that reflect your acceptance of the overall climate change topic you are referenc
