Comment on Datacenters in space are a terrible, horrible, no good idea.
reksas@sopuli.xyz 4 weeks agoi dont think anything in orbit or space is supportable without a planet. Or maybe the rich want to have kind of ultimate ivory tower -> they live in luxury in orbital habitats while we slave on the surface for them. Maybe they would want to get somekind of coercion method too, like nuclear arsenal in orbit they could use to threaten any part of the surface that might get too rebellious.

it was? havent watched it. I really hope it wont ever come to that, but knowing what those monsters do to kids it wouldnt surprise me if they wanted to make that movie into reality.
