Elon Musk has already started plans to launch a million satellites.
Yes. A MILLION.
This is a colossally bad idea, and it's not too late to make your voice heard. I explain everything:
@badastro So what will happen to those satellites after their service life expires?Will space debris form around the Earth?

@badastro that’s ok, as long as somebody else had a tech to shut them down at scale. i think to some forces that’s natural ambition to consider. Otherwise it will be fun night time sky to observe them all coliding one day

If the voice is heard, will it change anything? -

@hollowone @badastro ...until those collisions cause hundreds of thousands, to millions of untrackable little objects and debris that puts every other satellite and space station at risk.

@badastro has he actually spent money or resources on it or is it his usual investor fraud in time for the space x ipo?

@alextecplayz @badastro well, we’re doomed to die on this planet anyway…

@badastro But AGI will fix it, and there will be abundance, and those future people not yet born will be mad at you for stopping him!!
… or some other bullshit reason like that

@badastro Surely this photo’s wrong? I assume all his satellites would be on the far-right?

@badastro I’m so tired of making fun of the nonexistent brilliance Elon has built his whole personal brand around, so i’ll skip to the ask (for 🇺🇸️ans):
👉️ TODAY is the last day ‼️ to submit a public comment to the #FCC about spacex’s megaconstellation.
👉️ MONDAY is the last day to comment on the #ReflectOrbital filing.
The SciAm article has links and instructions. The more of us who speak up, the harder it is to ignore.

@sknob @paul aw Tweetbot! RIP. I was recently cleaning up my old Mac and I had to reluctantly delete it from there (the MacOS version). Longtime fan of Tapbots 🥲

@galaxis @Gargron Or Google. Last week I stumbled upon an Google admin interface where the checkbox with the English label "Enforcement" was translated in French with the equivalent of "Activation". It was about 2FA, and those both words doesn't mean at all the same thing in that context!

@Gargron I worked with subtitle translations for years... I need to comment on this!
The main issue people working with machine translated subtitles is that people take models for translating things in a single modal – text – and applying to a multimodal media – video. Of course the results are horrible!
There are research on improving that, sure, I did some, even, but even we are FAAAR from getting them any good. Translating "The nurse aided the doctor take care of the patient." to many languages require guessing the gender of three people! LLMs will often default to male, female and male, due to bias.
But, the sad thing we have to admit: many works of art are so unpopular the only translations people will have are machine ones, from weird anime like Sazae-san, to Mastodon toots.

@AVincentInSpace it literally is haha. Fellowship was just as bad.
I was still dialup back in those days so I’d order my bootleg DVDs from a dude in Hong Kong and I just about died laughing when I turned on subtitles randomly
-
My main use case for machine translations is spot checking words in languages I don't know as well as I should.
They are great for that.

@aeduna @Gargron From what I’ve heard it’s hit and miss.
But I wouldn’t know, I’ve been reading mostly in English for at least 30 years. ;-)

there's a universe of this stuff out there
my favorite is from the 2008 beijing olympics, a restaurant translating its name for foreign visitors, and dutifully announcing what the translation service fed back to them
