  • Elon Musk Announces Plan to Control Climate by Surrounding Earth in Adjustable Satellites

  • Lol. Thanks.

    Low earth orbit is consistently unsstable but the drag and gravity is pretty consistent so you're guaranteed to have to consistently adjust away from earth and speed up, or go the starlink route and just plan on launching a satellite replacement every 5 years(they do still have thrusters and adjust to stay in the right areas for their lifespan).

    The lagrange point actually has a wobble to it. Due to solar radiation and gravity from other planets as they move around, so that sweet little perfect spot of neutral gravity moves around in distance between the sun and the earth all the time.

    We'd probably have an easier time covering like 5% of our planet in mirrors spread out all over the place. That would cool the planet down by about 2c. Good luck keeping them all clean.

  • Money-losing Japanese automaker Nissan is selling its headquarters building to gain cash

    Jump

  • That's true for the 350's, I'll agree. Their v6 engines were pretty rock solid and those were designed and built by Nissan in Japan, along with the transmissions, and they weren't CVT's. A lot of their econo vehicles had Renault junk in them and their 4 cylinder engines didn't hold up as well. Fun cars to drive, but not as fun or nimble as the s2000 I used to own and now dearly miss.

  • Once about 2002 hit, things went to shit for Nissan.

  • Any company that puts two thermostats in a 4 cylinder engine gets a no from me.

  • You wouldn't be blocking all of the suns light. That'd kill us. Blocking 2% would be a noticeable "fix". It's been a thought out on paper project for decades. It's "possible" in the strictest sense, but would take something (or many smaller somethings) the size of most of South America to do. It would take thousands of launches to a destination around 800,000 miles away, and then it would also all have to be able to adjust for orbital changes because the lagrange point isn't a stable orbit.

    We just need another massive once a millennium volcano eruption. Throw the world into chaos and starve half the population to death while the earth is half covered in atmospheric ash for a year. The slow Thanos snap.

  • Lol. At least you figured it out in the end.

  • Mathematical proof debunks the idea that the universe is a computer simulation

    Jump

  • This article leads me to think their "proof" isn't proof at all, but I am curious as to why you think we couldn't be in a simulation?

  • I'm in my 40's and have always been a tech nerd. I have no personal information or pictures I don't want to get out saved in the cloud. All of my things are only locally saved and backed up. I also keep multiple emails with different passwords and names. My Microsoft account I do have is verified for changes through a non Microsoft email address.

    It would be a pain in the ass to screw with me in any major capacity. Quite frankly, I'm still surprised that the masses just accept cloud saving all their pictures and documents, just trusting Amazon or Google or Apple or Microsoft to not have security issues, especially when they've had so many security issues.

  • I'm fine with commercial job requirements for the stops, but against having to have one on my personal table saw. It's not like it's just an extra couple of dollars to have the saw stop, plus the cost of a new blade and brake if it does lockdown and stop it. The system isn't foolproof in that it only stops skin from getting cut. I could cut a piece of moist wood and it could stop. Actually, I could see that being an issue for a lot of commercial job sites. Sometimes the wood you're cutting is going to have some rain on it.
