You know, I just had a great idea how to dissipate that heat in space. we can use tungsten rods and heat them up, and when they’re too hot and don’t cool down anymore, we just drop them down to earth and should they happen to hit something in China or Russia that’s just a bonus

/S obviously

You are absolutely right about all of that, I did it exactly like that, had ChatGPT tell me what to do and done. I am not an IT person, but I still like messing with tech. But that’s more than 95% of people are willing to do, and that’s why people use plex. Takes literally a minute to set up and it just runs. That’s why people choose Apple. Simple and easy, little to no maintenance. That doesn’t make it a great product, but an accessible one, and that’s what counts for most people

While you’re probably right, I wonder if we would’ve said the same thing about GPS

As far as I understood, I always thought that they just used other people’s rockets to piggyback their own satellites to space basically for free

For Starlink and SpaceX, I can probably understand the business model, considering the race to getting more satellites to orbit be it for surveying or in case of Starlink stable Internet anywhere. But anything beyond that, like data centers in space I just ridiculous. No way that their valuation is anywhere near what it is realistically.
