- ge96 4y agoAhh yeah, have this archaeology fantasy like my data lives on in space somewhere but yeah forgot about the LEO atmosphere drag bit.
- p1mrx 4y agoYou'd have better luck with a GEO satellite like HughesNet, but I'd be surprised if any of them cache user data in nonvolatile storage.
- ge96 4y agoYeah I wonder if there will be a service like "send your data into space" which sounds equally stupid (use radio waves) but yeah... just longevity woes (sculpt a rock and burry it). Some of my code is in the arctic vault though a piece of crap Todo List.
