What the actual fuck. It's not April Fools Day, right? This is real?! Fuck you, SpaceX. Maybe this will help regulators realize how fucking shortsighted companies' plans in orbit are?
Surely the FCC won't rubber-stamp-approve this one??... ONE MILLION STARLINKS FUUUUCCCKKKKKK

@sundogplanets this is like the archetypal gold rush land grab. No thought or card for the consequences on others eg astronomy, debris impact etc. Just selfish short term monetary gain. The polluter should pay!

So, this has all the hallmarks of a 'Musk's name just came up in an Epstein email, begging for a wild party invite to the island’ distractor vibe to it.
You can make 1 million chocolate bars, just like that. I'm pretty sure that the sourcing for parts for satellites is less do-able.
Still. Eyes on.

@sundogplanets The US gov't, owned by the broligarchs, won't approve and even fund one of their Epstien friend's projects? Seriously, that's a foolish question. Of Course they'll approve it, give him tax money for it, tell the world to fuck off, and continue with impunity.

@sundogplanets I am so disappointed, man. When I was in highschool, I thought Elon Musk was so cool. The "real life Iron Man." Now, what the fuck.

@sundogplanets Is there enough rocket fuel on earth for a million rocket launches?
What about the logistics?
Say you manage to find 100 suitable rocket launch sites and have a successful launch a week from each site.
Assuming a 100% successful launch rate and that all of the satellites end up in the right orbit first time that's still 10,000 weeks before all of the satellites are in place.
So 192 years?
Are my calculations correct?
@the_wub @sundogplanets spacex already deploys 20-60 satellites per launch - and this is the same delusional management who think they can turn around launches in a day or less, so the bottleneck would (in their eyes) be building the satellites themselves

@sundogplanets IMHO it's another dumb way of Elon Musk to hype his techno bullshit. Orbital datacenter is a stupid idea on so many levels. Nobody will pit actual money into it. (Maybe the current US government, but nobody sane.)

@sundogplanets scientists need to build lasers to zap them out of earth. Put them into a trajectory to leave the earth.

This is Elon Musk stroking his dick in public, daring anyone to say something. -

Tbh, it is time to find a way to remove junk like SpaceX satellites from orbit without blowing them up with a ballistic missile. Aka. we need a way to free up the sky again or we'll just be stranded down here and not even be able to see the stars anymore...

@sundogplanets @robpike lol data centers in space what a publicity stunt. Makes absolutely zero material sense.
@Merovius@chaos.social @sundogplanets@mastodon.social @robpike@hachyderm.io I like the idea of a datacenter where the heat budget is impossibly strict, nobody can replace failing hardware, the geolocation changes radically every minute, and there's a good chance it collides with a loose screw going at 2km/s.

@sundogplanets not to mention that they can’t cool serious datacenters in space… so what are they really?

@irina @sundogplanets Hmmm. So, thinking selfishly it could theoretically happen within my lifetime.
In the back of my mind is this kind of thing, as drawn to my attention some time ago by the esteemed professor themselves:

@sundogplanets Surely someone has done the math here: roughly 10^1.5 satellites per launch. Roughly 10^2 launches per year. Average satellite lifetime of (optimistically) 10^1 years… Is 10^6 satellites even possible? (never mind orbital intersections, etc.)

@sundogplanets Countries need to start banning satellites above their near space, and either jamming them or destroying them if not moved.

"De Amerikaanse overheid heeft een hele zwik wetten om buitenlanders mee af te luisteren. De CLOUD-act is een soort voordeur, waarbij er een net verzoek naar Microsoft zou gaan “kunt u de email van de Nederlandse belastingdienst ophoesten?”. Zou netjes melding van gemaakt worden, en verwerkt worden in de statistieken. Maar ze gaan natuurlijk niet in Europa melden dat ze graag Europa af willen luisteren!"

Come la Russia sta aiutando l’Iran
Secondo una nuova inchiesta del Wall Street Journal, nelle ultime settimane la Russia ha aumentato la condivisione di tecnologie avanzate e di informazioni di intelligence con l’Iran, che le usa per colpire con più precisione gli obiettivi in Israele e le forze statunitensi in Medio Oriente. Per vari analisti, le informazioni condivise dalla Russia sono simili a quelle che gli USA forniscono da anni all’Ucraina.

NEW: Security researchers have found another sophisticated hacking campaign against iPhone users.
This one is also by a Russian government group against Ukrainians, and involves both stealing personal data and potentially crypto.
And it raises the question: are iPhone hacks more common that we think?
