If I were, perhaps it's because I'm not seeing any of the real stuff here.

What zApp is that?
There once was a product, called zApp, a portable GUI library over Windows and several Unixes/Linux. Unfortunately the Mac port never came.
Then they sold it to Roguewave, and they enshitificated it - especially the price.

As Eric Raymond (ESR) says, AI is a force multiplier. My elaboration: If you are good at what you do, it will let you do accomplish more good stuff faster. If you are not very bright, AI will let you be not bright more efficiently, but it won't make you bright. It's just a tool. It needs to be utilized correctly. There is no shortage of things in this world that can do tremendous damage if not used properly. AI is nothing new in that regard.

"AI slop" is so 2024. That argument isn't valid any more.

I'm surprised you didn't use the word "slop". Spewing a bunch of slogans that would have to be more clever to make it on to bumper stickers makes you look like the people you are complaining about. There are legitimate criticisms to make about AI, and ways to support and defend those arguments. You are not doing that.

Hehe, true.

No idea what you want to say.

This satellite is just one.

Here is how the orbits look like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

I guess the plan is to let it communicate with the starlink satellites.

Thanx for the info, I did not really dig into the space data center idea.

I guess as soon as you have enough up, your request will go to one that is close and not on the other side of the planet.

Most players use the keyboard. And perfect click is far less relevant than perfect strategy.

Germany comes to mind.
But probably not on a much higher level than Go.

I did play Stratego since ages.

Latency is about a 1/10th of a second if it is a geo stationary satellite, and much lower if it is in a lower orbit.
I suggest to put a half assed complicated request into what ever AI you are using and cout: 21, 22, 23 until the first result pops up.

An additional 1/10th of a second, you won't notice.

Meteor smacks are rare.

The oldest currently operating satellite that can still transmit a communication signal is AMSAT-OSCAR 7 (AO-7).
While it is an amateur radio satellite rather than a commercial television broadcasting satellite, it remains the absolute oldest active piece of communications hardware in space.

That satellite is only a small amateur radio "relay", it is operational since 52 years, on solar power.

If one spends a lot of money on something, it is kind of save to assume he has done his math.

A single star link satellite for example makes Space X 450million earnings.

Yeah, and what exactly did I said wrong?

Most flight attendents are not competing about the two (male?) pilots.

What would be the point of that?

If they are female: they have a BF at the destination and at the departure port ... or they only have one.

Don't play stupid.

A flight from Bangkok (BKK) to Frankfurt (FRA) is about 12h.

There is a 36h mandatory sleep over period before the return flight.

I am entitled to call "nonsense", to what ever I consider to be nonsense.

For example: 3) I have seen several studies that indicate most abusers come from entitled families and were not themselves abused as a child.
That is nonsense. I suggest to google a bit around. Basically every abuser (does not necessarily mean sexual) was abused as child.
