Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

One would think an academic would realize that the hype man doesn't actually do any engineering.
It's an idea that would work much better after a few more years when the chips are mature and not changing as much and you have a moon base producing aluminum metal and then you can use the waste rock as radiators with a little bit of moonwater cooling. Doing it now is the worst time.
If you haven’t already, you should read Artemis.
Did I hear aurora. That bullshit book by ksr? Let me see, you mean the Andy weir one. Yes I read it. It was good but a pretty tame setting with mass measured in grams. Very small scale. I don't think we will have so much skilled 0g welding. Easier to use a robot or just slather it in a ton of mass and brute force it.
Yeah a data center, on earth or in space, sits on a ton of infrastructure. It is foolish to even mention the cherry on top when you don't even have a cake yet.
First we industrialize cis lunar space then we industrialize the moon then we'll see about data centers in space.
Apropos then that fElon prefers to declare he's placing said cherry on top and the rest of his cult scrambles to design, manufacture, and position said cake directly under the cherry's forecasted destination vector. ☝🏼
