But AFAIK, those other constellations still aren’t targeting consumers(?) I should have clarified, but from a consumer standpoint, I think there’s still only one real choice at the moment.

They are launching, but right now Starlink is a monopoly. There’s no other constellation in orbit that comes close in latency or bandwidth capabilities. Hopefully the upcoming constellations are successful and there’s more competition in th

> ARM has never and will never touch the desktop market That’s a bold statement as I type all day on an M1 Mac. My FT100 company just made the leap to them as dev machines.

Is seems to have a long tour of usage (even if not being used as designed). It’s good news to me that it’s not being used at Adak to find incoming Russian ICBMs. Hopefully we don’t have to endure another USSR Cold War.

Ah - after re-reading the article, I think you’re correct. That being said, there’s still a barrier to entry by having an i-device/i-account. I wonder if there would be a way for them to ban abuse since they have so much control over t

I'm really amazed at what Apple has created with private relay. I see people complain, but I do _not_ see it as a replacement for Tor. What it does provide is the first private (again, not Tor-level private) VPN that incentivizes sites

That's not even accounting for the fact that Predators aren't able to realistically be used with S-300/S-400 SAMs sitting everywhere. There's a reason you aren't seeing aircraft near the front unless you're tal

You should check out the NGAD program. It's exactly what you're talking about. The problem with drones is that they're easily jammed. Ukraine is lucky that Russia has been so incompetent, but I bet the next major conflict has

Since it’s never really in the shadow of a planet (heliocentric orbit), it’s probably hotter overall. From the videos I’ve seen, it’s also spinning really slowly. I think you could see off-gassing in some of the videos. I looked into it a l

It can actually get really hot in space without some kind of active heat transfer. The body in the suit would probably alternate between freezing and frying. Not a great way to preserve a body IMO.

Doesn’t this logic also work for oil wells? At least lithium can be recycled. I know the infrastructure doesn’t currently exist, but that’s not to say that it won’t with economies of scale.
