They might put a million satellites into orbit, but they’re certainly not going to be orbital data centers. At least not as we currently understand data centers. The idea that space is cold and therefore a great place to put data centers that get hot is the idea of a stoned moron talking out of their ass. Space is a vacuum, you know what else is a vacuum, the part of your portable coffee mug that keeps your beverage warm or cold for ages, because vacuum is a crazy good insulator. Just because space is cold doesn’t mean the heat from an orbital data center can dissipate into it. This dumb idea is never going to happen unless data canter technology improves to the point where they aren’t environmental disasters anymore.

Not a real big issue, but sometimes (not all the time) when my Ubuntu OS (24.04.3 LTS) puts my desktop to sleep (automatically after 2 hours idle) when I go to wake it up it’s as if I’ve rebooted. All my applications are closed, I have to login etc, but it doesn’t really do a full boot sequence with the option to enter BIOS etc.

Like I said, not a big deal as I’m not (usually) dumb enough to leave unsaved work sitting around, but it is kind of annoying.

I’ve been following your posts to set up some self hosting and it’s been going well so far, thank you!

I have noticed that a lot of the images in the posts don’t seem to be loading (422 errors), it hasn’t been too much of a deal breaker so far but in the section about running tailscale in a container and editing the acls file there’s a couple images that are showing the before and after of this file that aren’t loading for me. Hopefully this is something that isn’t too difficult for you to fix.

Thanks again for these posts, I’ve learned a lot so far and even got jellyfin working on my phone outside my local network using tailscale.
