    I like folks who do the math!
    Your eyeball numbers are slightly off my eyeball numbers (you inspired me to check 🙂)

    The Chinese have been experimenting with Hainan submersible data centres for 3 years now. I believe they have 3 in operation. Using that as an example, 400 servers with inference engine heatload;

    1.5 MW = ~30,000m²
    This translates to two football field sized Louvre arrays. x10+ more than ISS array.

    However, there are two more effective space cooling systems.

    One is droplet radiator which would reduce the area to only ~1900m² for the same heat-load, the droplet radiator area to existing ISS dimensions (though diff tech) - This tech is operational

    Second more effective solution is a nuclear reactor/turbine (demonstrated). The Nuclear Brayton solution only needs ~150m² radiator for the same heatload. Before tRump infested our planet, I would say "good luck with that", but since we now live in times where international laws mean jack shit, getting a nuke up there is an option.

    BTW: Both solutions are significantly lighter than ISS passive fins.

    However, I think it's super bad idea because of trash up there, #kesslersyndrome and its just a resource sink for Ketamine boy now that his #occupymars missions are dead and burried.

    TLDR; Orbital #AI #Datacenter are entirely technologically viable. But, sinking them in the sea is way easier, safer and cheaper.

    Disclaimer: Back of the envelope calculations.

  7. "Occupy Mars" was never more than a scheme to fleece the tax payer.

    #Mars will never be occupied. Not by humans anyway.

  9. Goodmorning! A #boardgame question: we're using some #lego trays for our #OccupyMars cards.

    While the lego dimensions work great I wouldn't mind a nicer plastic or wood solution. Maybe with a closable lid. I can't really find anything online. Any suggestions?

    Edit: fyi. A standard card is 64mm on the short side. That is an exact fit with the LEGO system where it equals eight studs.
