People want houses, that doesn’t mean they want forests clear cut.
Similarly people want space exploration, that doesn’t mean they want to speedrun Kessler syndrome.
The infrastructure isn’t the only issue here. Its the fact that this is being done by a corporation owned by a nazi, with many other companies looking to compete. So instead of having one set of LEO satellites, we’ll have several.
If this was actually used to benefit humanity the light pollution caused by this would be understandable and minimized. But this isn’t being done in a sustainable way, or owned by the people.
And that’s all before considering the detrement to the environment from these satellites constantly burning up in the upper atmosphere.
And with all that said, this isn’t space exploration, and it isnt the type of space infrastructure that would aid exploration. Actual exploration doesn’t need thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of these tiny satellites aimed only at Earth.


Calling it now, a couple of them are going to “oops, lost my gun” inside the airport.
It was so long ago, I don’t remember.
I do remember that they were saying that bullshit to every employee in sight
When I was working retail, stocking shelves, one of those scumbags walked up to me and asked “so is this what you want to do for your life, are you happy here?”
Like what the fuck.


Yes, and it’s terrible.
Same goes for sci-fi in general

I would have more hate to send Jira’s way if not for all are tickets being written like:
“As a developer given I am working on page X Then all functionality of page X is correct”
Then everybody gets pissy that page Y has a bug.
“I feel like we’ve gotten much better with our acceptance criteria” - one of the people getting pissy about page Y
Its a type of self harm in my opinion. So the same reasons for other types would apply.


My linux mint installation is frequently timing out on some part of the start up process. I’m half guessing it’s because the windows partition is fucking with things, because every time it happens and I switch to windows and back again, the problem resolves itself.
But I also don’t care to diagnose the issue any further, because I’m going to be doing a fresh install of everything soon.


I disagree. I just described heaven. 💦


Best option is to meet her in the middle and eat her out as she sits on the dumpster in the back alley.
My mind was on the more practical idea of intervening on the ground.
But basically no-one, since it’s largely based on international law which is toothless.
