We can also launch Elmo into space and... Well, just forget about him, good riddance

[–] rainbow_trout@piefed.blahaj.zone 13 points 8 hours ago

Instead of shipping an entire data center to space, let's ship a single Elon instead.

This leaves more room for fish to thrive.

Vacuum does not vent heat.

This has been a PSA.

Still kinda blows my mind that a ship could accelerate to 1c and still not be able to use cooling fins, aircraft on earth use it as part of the design process

[–] vinyl@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

no worries about the temperature if the ship collides with a spec of spacedust :)

Probably move them to a data center friendly state?

[–] thespcicifcocean@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Idaho, please. Put them all in Idaho.

What if….. we didn’t put them anywhere

Please, waste your money on something that needs several football fields big heat radiators per gigawatt. And cannot replace a hard drive without launching a technician into space.

[–] MBech@feddit.dk 2 points 4 hours ago

Easy, just tell the AI to change the harddrive!

I want Elon Musk in space, aimlessly drifting around.

only if it falls on Musks HQ, and his homes, or any of the tech billionaires homes.

Elmo will have to move to Floriderp.

[–] vinyl@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

kinda hard to do that when he invested so much time and money on blexas

[–] stoly@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (7 children)

lol let him waste his money on an impossible technology

[–] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 11 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

He doesn't waste his money on his companies. He wastes tax payer funding on them. And when that started drying up, he took it to the stock market, convinced the exchange to fast track adding his company to being eligible for indexes, and then wasted our 401ks on it. He's the ultimate con man.

[–] stoly@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

Yes but that only lasted weeks before collapsing. The end is coming, he is now trying to roll Twitter into spacex. It’s where his real riches are. When it eventually goes, so does his money

[–] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 13 hours ago

I'm hoping for a push by the people to pressure the Democrats to defund Musk. All his tech is shit and hurts people.

With Trump, he got no-bids.
