Nonsense! We’ve got plenty of friends here:

Maybe the year of the Linux desktop was the journey we met along the way.

I’m shocked that friday’s deployment to prod didn’t explode.

The population is subsidizing you. Everybody subsidizes everyone. That’s how society works.

UBI raises everyone’s standard of living, both in practice and in theory.

They probably don’t read xkcd to begin with.

I’ve been doing some shady shit with regex lately (parsing .md files for interactive TTRPG sheets), but I’m glad to have not been touching XML

Java is inherently cross platform, and works well on linux. So assuming the phone is powerful enough, you should be good to go even if it’s linux.

Definitely worth checking out Minetest/Luanti though, it has promise.

Yeah. And those industrial bots you work with are all metal, with high torque motors most likely.

Meanwhile this thing is going to be using the cheapest servos that can just barely meet the torque requirements, all in a plastic housing arm.

Gonna stick with my ender 3.

Assuming every hinge there is motorized, that’s 6 servos. That looks like a nightmare to calibrate, which it will need to do a lot of if it’s shoved in some backpack for travel on a routine basis.

And the print head looks like a bitch to take apart to service if you get a jam.

I code using a telegraph machine in morse code.

And how to do it

The lower your orbit, the quicker your orbit decays due to atmospheric drag.

That’s the problem here though, that effect is lessening. So they’re gonna stay up their longer, potentially past the limits of what they can do to avoid collisions. That’s going to create problems for lower orbits.

Not exactly. If it goes into full blown Kessler syndrome, it will become everyone’s problem, including at the newly “freed up” lower orbits.

That was some wild shit I just read.

I want off this planet.

Background checks can’t catch everyone.

The space race gave us space age materials and advances. It wasn’t for nothing.
