this is basically how time worked before we invented railroads

Officer, I will not answer questions without my attorney present.

License, registration, and proof of insurance

Mind if I see your phone? It’s just hard to read.

OH INTERESTING CONVERSATION YOU HAD WITH “WALGREENS GUY” ABOUT “SANDWICHES” HOW ABOUT YOU STEP OUTTA THE CAR

That’s an easy 100M GP right there

that would drive up the price of ram in China too, which would likely make the CCP quite cross with them. Electronics are a huge export and the Chinese government has to worry about entire cities going offline or having to pivot their entire industrial sectors if the shortage lasts too long.

The answer to the riddle is teapot, but I have no idea what JOB could possibly mean

He’s stupid, but in this instance I think he’s just bullshitting for spacex’s sake. Even he is capable of putting together the fact that the costs required to build (not to mention service) an orbital data center far outweigh the costs of swapping out the genset for the same exact solar panels you would have otherwise put on the rocket. Maybe you need more panels to make up for atmospheric transmission and the day/night cycle but he (or let’s be real, grok) has ready access to the cost of a single starship launch and a calculator.

If and only if someone is insane enough to develop off-planet manufacturing with the bulk of the raw materials originating from somewhere in deep space, e.g. asteroid mining, putting data centers in space might be useful for problems that demand intensive compute and can work with extreme latency.

Then again that’s like saying inventing the airplane would have been a good strategy for Neanderthals to find better firewood.

The value clearly lies in the gnomes that live in the goose and design and build the eggs. The goose itself is but an empty vessel, a fiction of convenience for the goose’s owner.
