Orbital data enters aren’t happening. A million starlinks aren’t happening. And musk will eventually die. I’m only defending a reasonable size of constellation.

I can’t afford a boat, but I benefit from the goods and food that they transport.

This conversation is a waste of time no matter how much of a nazi Elon is.

This is what the sky would be like in the majority of science fiction. If you want space exploration, there will be space infrastructure, and as time goes on that infrastructure will increase both in amount and size, not to mention the traffic to and from.

It is like complaining about the clutter of the marina while wanting to explore the ocean.

I thought we were defederating lemmy.ml?

We’re reachable by propaganda. Arrest Rupert Murdoch next time he comes home.

The furthest node I can reliably hit on Meshtastic is about 60 miles from me. Sporadically there’s a node I see 110 miles away.

With Meshcore I can sporadically hit something 300 miles away, but locally isn’t reliable because the density isn’t as good in my area. Too many dead spots.

Ultimately I’m going to use both, but I’m not putting up any meshcore infrastructure because it’s not FOSS and Meshtastic has more inertia here.

Buy two devices and flash both. See what your locals are doing.

I’ve tried both side by side, ultimately you can tune out Meshtastic to cover a metro area pretty well. Mesh core is better at linking regions together, but ultimately it’s not fully open source. Like you gotta buy some firmwares.

My local area, and many others have active contributors to Meshtastic apps and firmware, I feel more comfort in that than reaching people in the next state over.

Once upon a time I felt guilty and didn’t apply to a government assistance within the required window.

I almost lost everything.

Always apply and take everything they will give you.

The other thing that keeps Apple in business is tech companies not wanting to fuck around with windows or Linux laptops. Linux systems run the world and MacOS is just plain better when it comes to interacting with those systems while also serving as a good user-facing operating system.

And before anyone says WSL, I was forced to use WSL for an engagement and anyone who tells you it’s viable is a lying or a Stockholm syndrome sufferer.

Your political narcissism is incurable. Enjoy fucking people over for your feels.

Did you vote for Kamala or did you allow Trump to take power?

NASA has contracted out basically all their rockets. We need spacex. Elon needs to be in jail. If only for threatening national security with this dumb move. Never mind being a Nazi and election interference.

Keep going they’re almost there.

They won’t achieve it and they’re going to sunk cost the global economy into a nosedive.

Restricting superior foreign cars worked for China.

I met her at a convention and she was so gracious.

This thing will literally catapult you the second there’s a minor glitch.

Laptops. The M series is silly.

General Eisenhower definitely bombed some people.

Buy him Hokas and have him tell his friends to eat shit.
