Somehow I don’t think Errol Musk knew that much about the geology. Allegedly he bought the shares on a whim without first visiting the mine, which was in a different country.

Mines can absolutely become suddenly unprofitable. You don’t know how much good stuff is in the ground until you dig it up.

The mine went bankrupt in '89, just a few years after Errol bought shares in it. The boss was someone else.

If someone wants karma they could host a modified instance where every post gets thousands of upvotes for free. Other instances can’t really verify whether that’s accurate.

Maybe on the support ship, but not on the sub. Starlink frequency can’t penetrate water.

Starlink doesn’t work for submarines. The radio frequency they use can’t penetrate water. The support ship does use it to communicate with the outside world, but the communications link between the ship and the sub has to use entirely different technology.

Inzwischen gibt es neue Daten zu den neuen Starlink v2-mini Satelliten, die mit Reflektorfolie auf +7 mag gekommen sind, also ungefähr so dunkel wie von der Fachkonferenz gefordert.

Was in dem Paper von der Konferenz besonders krass ist sind die Plots die die Abhängigkeit von der Orbit-Höhe zeigen. Starlink bei 550 km ist wesentlich weniger problematisch wie OneWeb bei 1200 km. Was Kessler-Syndrom angeht ist der niedrigere Orbit von Starlink auch ca. Faktor 100 mal weniger problematisch.

Wenn wir die 500€ für Arbeitslose durch 500€ bedingungslos ersetzen würden, dann würden sich kleine Jobs, die nicht viel zahlen aber auch nicht viel Aufwand brauchen, vielleicht mehr lohnen.

One winning is not necessary desirable, the whole point of federation is to spread things out over many instances.
