At first I had read the company's name as Rectal Orbit.

@sundogplanets
Building a giant slingshot do you think can work?

@sundogplanets is it open to foreigners? I don't see that they are asking for an address?

@sundogplanets
You just wait until Elon figures he wants a hand in space-based beamed power...

@sundogplanets I can't believe this is actually fucking real.

@sundogplanets
When burning ants alive with a magnifying glass makes you wish you could hear the screams….. cartoonish supervillainy shit right here, jfc

@sundogplanets Hello 👋, Nice meeting you all Am New Here

@ Prof. Sam Lawler comments for US citizens only or worldwide?

@sundogplanets

Current AI: aggressively inconvenient

@sundogplanets is this a real concern?

@sundogplanets Nice! "Incompatible browser extensions or Network configuration".

@sundogplanets
I wish we could just throw the people pushing these things , in jail

@sundogplanets @mayintoronto how does the US government get to make this call, for globe-encircling tech?

@sundogplanets on it!

l guess i am in mastodon now.. thanks vivaldi

@sundogplanets How is it that U.S. companies get to destroy space for the entire Earth?

@sundogplanets It makes zero sense to launch datacenters in space. I ain't gonna go through the technical reasons why, but you can read here where someone that actually worked at NASA and google explaining why its a bad idea... https://taranis.ie/datacenters-in-space-are-a-terrible-horrible-no-good-idea/

But if I could take a moment to poke my conspiracy brain, I think this is more for building an advanced surveillance network against the whole world. You can possibly monitor almost everything on Earth with a network like that.

@sundogplanets Aside from the whole night sky thing, there are going to be ecological damage done by this. Lots of flora and fauna need dark and light cycles. :(

@sundogplanets Plus. It's open for comments worldwide. Right?

@sundogplanets this is quite outrageous. How is it possible that everything in there public domain / commons seems to be up for grabs instead being protected for its cultural and natural value. Can’t believe this stuff.

@sundogplanets @ai6yr FYI since you have a big network!

@sundogplanets can I share this outside of mastodon?

@sundogplanets sarcastic as hell take: Aliens are behind this.
