cool yeah neat but you can contend with the reality that it does happen right? https://www.pcmag.com/news/spacex-actually-dying-starlink-sa...

I was excited to see some evidence, but if you actually read the article they're talking about flakes of silicon with less than one joule of energy reaching the surface. To break an airliner windscreen, you need an energy more like a big hammer.

From the article:

> In one rare instance, the company also revealed that "a 2.5 kg piece of aluminum" found on farm grounds in Saskatchewan, Canada, was traced to a Starlink satellite.

A piece of debris of similar size to this is what I'd guess could cause the kind of damage we see in the incident involving the airliner.

So while most Starlink debris may be harmless by the time it reaches the surface, we know this doesn't always happen as expected.

And since the vast majority of reentering space debris is from Starlink satellites, that'd would be the first place I'd look.

To be totally clear, I am doubtful this is actually caused by space debris, but I don't think it's entirely unreasonable for it to be one of the most likely causes.

it's collateralized debt. Definitionally they will recoup the balance.

House prices in Austin have dropped 20%.

similar to Elon Musk talking about pretty much everything software. I don't know why he doubled down on having played poe2. https://youtu.be/cZslebJEZbE

Like illegally using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport people when the act literally states it's a wartime authority (no new wars). like illegally deporting Abrego Garcia to the one country that he wasn't allowed to be deported to.

Thanks - the Supreme Court clarified this in their ruling. But, the Supreme Court has also ruled that the US administration can deport individuals to third countries, while legal challenges to the practice are pending.

I see this as a perfect example of the US Supreme Court clarifying the scope and applicability of law - just like they rejected Biden's student loan forgiveness under the HEROES act and Biden found a workaround instead.

most people can only see "winners" and "losers" in economic transactions.

everyone that has used OVH and received an attack is laughing at that.

It's worked extremely well against every single DDoS we've received. I'd rate it as one of the best for the price.

In my experience OVH DDoS protection works pretty well. It's not perfect every single time.

I have more good things to say about OVH then bad. I do wish their edge firewall worked against internal traffic too however.

I'm waiting for the calls of adding TCM or other "regional medicines" as training data.

that's normal for higher end restaurant dining. trying to navigate reservations has always been a pain without concierge.

I just flew out right before golden week started. there's a lot more tourists from countries I hadn't seen represented before 2020.
