@ariadne @ireneista I think the idea is to put a lot of smaller units of compute into a huge starlink-style cluster that communicate with each other as well as the ground.
But of course now you're adding extra launch costs, distributed computing *in space*, and many other new problems on top of the cooling one.
@AmeliasBrain @eclectech I voted for the first two, but if I knew a better word for the second option I'd probably use it.
To me there's a material line at whether "I can quickly pop back home to get something I forgot" that matters more than the specific bed I'm sleeping in though.
@Daveography @geodarcy oh wow yeah this looks so confusing.
@dysfun also most of us who aren't are now stuck reviewing and/or cleaning up their crap, and getting demoralized for it.
That thing where you realize how much you identify with a character in a story because you cry at a scene where they have a life experience you wish you'd had.
@Chigaze @AmeliasBrain @EllenInEdmonton I mean the hour after sunrise and the hour before sunset at that time of year can only really be called "day" under extremely charitable definitions.
@Chigaze @AmeliasBrain @EllenInEdmonton and 3pm sunsets depress the hell out of me and many others. The only winning move is not to play.
@Chigaze @AmeliasBrain @EllenInEdmonton this goes both ways though. We'd have to be in like alaska time to *actually* never have dark mornings at standard school start times in the winter.
This is why my position is that there is no timezone that can make everyone happy here. Just have to pick one, it will never be perfect.
For some reason my microwave will let you set its power level to zero. I guess just in case you want to slowly spin a bowl around with a fan going??
