that would probably be a bad thing
that would probably be a bad thing
really this just highlights how shitty biking is in the rest of the country, even “bike friendly” cities…
painting a line along the gutters and painting a bike stencil on it is not a bike lane… it needs separation or it’s just stupid.
or really it seems malicious a lot of times…
we separate cars from sidewalks with curbs.
the super revolutionary technology of a “curb” is all we need to keep bicyclists safe…
i just don’t get how that’s not obvious everywhere…
“Israeli quadcopter drones opened fire on Palestinians who had gathered to receive flour brought by UN trucks”
well that’s about the most horrible thing ive ever heard of…
that’s not the reality…
yep. they shouldn’t be allowed to abandon games that people paid for… if they require drm…
i really like ID software’s system of open sourcing games once they’ve aged enough…
i think that should be the standard…
welll then just use inches
just convert it with math?
it’s not really that hard…
it’s not really a worry, it’s a plain fact
funny choice of words…
rather than sobering, this shit drives me to drink…
this graph is looking suspiciously like exponential growth… which would probably be very bad
the problem you’re not acknowledging is that the atmosphere is a limited resource that belongs to all of us. (not to mention fuel/energy issues)
i think it groovy to do some beta testing and all… but they shouldn’t just keep launching disposable satellites to bridge the gap and keep service going… all space launches should be extremely well thought out, efficient, and as long lasting as possible…
like a nasa mission
sure, do some research… but don’t just burn up the sky…
i have considered that, and it does serve a very good purpose there…
but still, launching a shitload of satellites wastes a lot of fuel and energy, and deorbiting them is rather wasteful.
im sure the same thing could be done without treating satellites like kleenex…
one of those things where profit and preserving the environment clash.
what is your point?
my point is you’re agreeing with me a lot but misinterpreting me entirely… so you’re trying to argue with me.
…
i’ll repeat my point reeeeeally simply:
yes, starlink wasteful, bad satellites.
some satellites good, like hubble.
well i was contrasting how say, the hubble telescope is a worthwhile satellite that will eventually burn up in the atmosphere, while starlink is wasteful…
well i was contrasting how say, the hubble telescope is a worthwhile satellite that will eventually burn up in the atmosphere, while starlink is wasteful…
like i said, quantity and frequency…
if your neighbor burned a tv in a bonfire every 3 years, and used that tv to answer mysteries of the universe and had to burn it to do that… you’d be okay with it.
i’m starting to think maybe we shouldn’t burn tons of fuel for billionaires to be space tourists…
…
regarding starlink, all satellites eventually deorbit and burn up in the atmosphere… but yeah it’s the quantity and time frame
really it would be bad news because then we’d be obligated to eat more meat…
yes
