26 centros de datos en Cataluña, si nadie lo remedia.
Luego, que si no hay agua, que si las playas se las come el mar, que si la energía está cara.. Unid los puntos.

Menos mal que es el Ejército Más Moral Del Mundo(TM).

"La Asociación de Prensa Extranjera de Israel (FPA) ha cuestionado este miércoles la credibilidad del Ejército israelí después de que, tras asesinar al periodista Ali Shaib en el sur de Líbano, difundiera una fotografía de este mismo manipulada para vestirle con el uniforme del grupo chií Hezbolá.

[...] Consultadas por la cadena estadounidense Fox News, las fuerzas armadas reconocieron que la imagen había sido manipulada: “Desafortunadamente, no hay una imagen real de ello, se hizo con Photoshop”, recoge la respuesta militar a la cadena."

BREAKING: Virginia just now passed legislation ending tax breaks for white supremacist Confederate groups—even though the Civil War ended 161 years ago.

But remember, reparations for Black people are unrealistic, unfair, and unwarranted—after all the Civil War ended 161 years ago.

Tax breaks for white supremacist terrorists who enslaved Black people are great, but reparations to Black people harmed by enslavement are bad.

This is what systemic white supremacy in 2026 America looks like.

"Blue Origin will take all feasible steps to reduce the probability of collision by at least 1.5 orders of magnitude for any collision risk above a threshold which will be no higher than 1E-5" I'm an orbital debris expert and I'm not sure I can parse this sentence. But I'm sure it'll be fine!!

They say they'll get the collision prob down to 1 in 1000 for any periods of non-maneuverability. With 51,000 sats and a million more from SpaceX, these are great odds! (...of a collision)

No mention of atmospheric pollution, of course, because the FCC doesn't give a shit about that. With SpaceX's 5 Starlinks a day a few months ago, we were well above natural infall rates of most metals, so 1 (presumably) gigantic satellite per hour will be a lot worse than that.

My colleagues and I wrote a bit about using the atmosphere as a satellite crematorium here, and it's bad: https://theconversation.com/a-new-space-race-could-turn-our-atmosphere-into-a-crematorium-for-satellites-276366

To nobody's surprise, they will burn all their satellites up in the atmosphere, because that's what all the cool kids do. They don't actually say their operating lifetimes anywhere. But if they're 5 years like Starlink, then that's a bit more than one satellite burned up per hour.

And will they burn up completely? Well, they say they'll use the same NASA debris model to assess that said that the SpaceX Crew Dragon trunk would burn up. So I'm not worried at all!!

Oh another one too: Please don't ask us about our debris mitigation plan because the "satellite design is currently being matured" (in other words, they have no fucking clue what the satellites will actually look like or how they will work).

Oh yet another: we totally can't upload our orbital parameter date because the FCC's web form is too crappy! (This part I actually believe. The FCC's website blows.) But come on guys, no orbits?

Oh yeah, didn't submit to the ITU yet either. Of course.

The shitweasels are also asking for waivers! Because the few rules that are left are just too much.

Please don't ask Jeff Bezos to pay a measly million dollar bond in case they don't launch 50% of their sats within 6 years. That would be unfair! Also please don't worry about what radio spectrum we'll use, because we totally promise not to have any interference at all, even though we provide absolutely zero information about how our satellites work!

Oh my god the "PUBLIC INTEREST" section is a giant love fest over all the things that AI isn't actually doing. Don't worry guys, if you launch data centers into orbit, they are way greener! There's always solar power in space! Please just ignore all the rocket exhaust, ablation products, and shit hitting the ground... Also the fact that data centers in space are almost certainly physically impossible...

Trying to edit a stupid FCC comment on Yet Another Fucking Stupid Orbital Data Center (fuck you, Blue Origin) and I need to go outside and rage-scream for a while. And I have an easily accessible hayfield to rage-scream in!! (Also maybe baby goats, I'll check for those too #BabyGoatCountdown)
