  • Yeah. It’s really sad that a lot of people on remote areas in the Amazon will be affected by a ban on starlink. They also spent quite a bit of money for Brazil’s standards on the equipment as well.

    Still, this shouldn’t be the reason to put anyone above the law, no one should be above a county’s law.

    If this actually happens it may really backfire on Elon and all companies he’s involved, at least in Brazil.

    As you invested your money in one of his companies products and now because of his massive ego/lack of mental stability you either lost support, functionality or access to parts (for maintenance of hardware) and I doubt any of his companies would pay their users for this inconvenience. This would make using any of the products he’s involved with too risky, better to just use a more “mentally stable” competitor even if the service or product is slightly worse.


  • I don’t know anything about this subject with the exception of a video I watched a while ago mentioning that most hydroponic startups end up failing because the cost is too high as you always need a specialist and you can only grow smaller plants/veggies there. This compared with traditional farms.

    Does this change that at all? I’m hoping it does as I’d love that hydroponics got much more financially viable as I honestly believe they’ll be our future considering global warming and pests as well.


  • I remember watching a video not long ago about this girl in South Korea who went to uni, couldn’t find a job in her area. Then started doing web development and also had to work in a convenience store and could barely survive.

    I know there’s a lot of people who never wanted to have kids to begin with and that pop decline is a worldwide phenomenon right now. However, even if someone wanted to have kids, how the heck can you do it if you can barely survive even with 2 jobs?




  • I wonder how bad this is going to be. I hope my country starts checking for radioactivity in fish imported. Considering that some fish can travel quite far I wouldn’t be surprised if the ones from anywhere near Japan and close countries could have unsafe levels of radiation.

    I read some article last week mentioning that the advanced filtering system for water was practically useless. Hopefully I just understood it wrong.
