Jeff Bexod is planning to invest 10 billion into space based data centers Do you see a future here?
no cooling requirements + free power + no flooding/hurricane/whatever danger, sounds good for things that don't require low latency
>>106844304Space is a horrible location for datacenters. Where do you put all of the heat?
how do you protect it from debris???
>>106844312The void nigga.
>>106844311>>106844318Retard
could you power a data centre totally off solar in space? how big would the panels need to be?
>>106844326You could power it, yes. Dealing with the heat would be the difficult part. You would need absolutely massive radiators.
>>106844304niceelon musk is gonna have us on mars in the year 2025bezo is going to have a space data center in the next 10+ yearsindia will be a superpower in 2020trump will release the epstein filejews will honor an agreementwhat are some other things to look forward to?
>>106844323strap on a heatsink
>>106844312not on our precious overheating earth, that's what
>>106844343Retard
>>106844312focus the heat energy into lasers and fire it at pluto to cool it down
>hardware failswhat is bezos move then?
>>106844311>no cooling requirementsu wot
>>106844311radiation, maitenance and upgrades tho
So how will it work? Like the floating space stations? Does that mean they'll need astronauts to become techies?What if it's like a giant elevator? What happens when the elevator eventually gets hit by something and falls down? What about the station itself? Won't it just get hit by some random shit down the line? What about radiation? How fast will the center be able to get data to and from? What if it's just like a floating box with cold storage lol.
>>106844373right now america is collapsing and is finished. they're just making wild and empty promises because they know the wheels are coming off and they just want to loot a bit more before it's over.they can't even get power to data centers in america and they're going to put them in space? how does that make sense? you can't even get it here on earth and you're gonna put them in space where it costs a hundred million to replace shit?
>man with so much money he has no idea what to do>feels invincible>makes space company so he can take some thots into space>hires people to tell him how to make more money>"lol u should use this space company for more stuff, we need to make money or something">"i kno, lets move aws to space, we already know that!">SEND ITfeel sorry for the engineer who gets stuck with that job
>>106844304>spaceRussian territory
>>106844383>How fast will the center be able to get data to and fromyou can browse a website from the other side of the planet right nowchances are it will be faster
>>106844402>get paid lods of emone to engineer a space datacenter>jack off at work for a year>"sorry boss physics says it can't be done"
>space based more like space cringe
>>106844414Holy retardWhy is it that the most technically incompetent on this site go to /g/?
>>106844312build it on the cool side of mercuryput the solar panels on the hot side of mercury
>>106844356>Retardif jeff benzo says he will build space data center, then people smarter than YOU have already figured the logistics of dissipating the heat into the void, the only retard here is you for questioning the efforts of engineers and scientists backed by a $2.4 trilliong market cap hyper corporation
these retards would rather talk shit about building datacenters in space than just build them in colder climates
>>106844304No How large will the radiating elements have to be to eliminate the heat of an entire data center? I imagine rather large.It would be better to use microwave to beam the energy to the surface.
>>106844451because there's already really awesome really cold places here on earth
>>106844464but earth is gay and space is cool
>>106844313Kilometers thick reinforced concrete sphere around the data center.
>>106844458or underwaterjust a little offshore where the water is cold and energy and population centers are near
>>106844312They could run it hot and take advantage of T^4 radiative cooling.Or maybe the idea is some superconducting quantum thing.IDK, without some details I must call BS.
>>106844451I guess I'm smarter than you & JeffI went to YouTube Shorts and typed in"Science nigger explains how cold is space really"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGz_XCu2b4o
>>106844304That's retarded.>>106844312this lol
>>106844304Talmbout Jeff Benchod?
He's sending 10 billion into space? Probably still better than investing it in muttland
>>106844451If only that were true.
>>106844515Salt water bad.
>>106845062i looked shit up and if im not mistaken, you can radiate 150 watts per square meter when operating at ~75°C (350 K)stefan-boltzman something
>>106845093You sound like a fucking idiot lol
>>106845093one could supercharge it with a heatpumpkinda like an ac worksyou compress gas and throw the much higher temperature into spacebut even then i get 280 w/m^2 for 410K (~130°c)
>>106845119and you sound like you suck cockssome anon is gonna correct me and ill stop sounding like an idiotbut you will never stop drinking cum
>>106844359imagine overclocking possibities and while at it why not use light for data transfer
>>106845121>>106845093I suspect you would need a very large radiator and considerable infrastructure to pump heat into it, all in space. But hey, you can do it Jeff!
>>106844312The one place that's has not been corrupted by Capitalism
>>106845167a) all this shit would need to get hauled up thereb) how do you even maintain something like that, sub b: what when you decomission?c) orbits decay. so refueling etc etcd) comms, comms pollution. its all radio and one will end out of bandwidth, also security, also global infrastructureits all doable but its a bad idea compared to dumping a datacenter in the seaor doing things the normal way
>>106844312ITS OVER!! NASA IS A FRAUD. This guy on 4chan debunked ISS
>>106845202What are you yammering about, retard? Do you think a space station is like a data center?
>man building rockets wants customers
>>106845227>random 4chan redditor claims man that builds rocket is a fraud and doesnt know space
>>106844304>unlimited solar energy 24/7bro does not understand orbits
>>106845243don't be foolishof course grifters know they're grifting
Anon I slept a bit and now I think it really will just be a floating box with a bunch of nvmes attached to a wifi antenna. Bezos is genius!
>>106844304sounds smart enough
>>106844451show us the source of these smarter scientists' research and their confirmed results then, nigger.
>>106847026>just let me steal your technice try, chinkoid
>>106844304cool if true
FINALLY! a use for all that ECC memory and checksumming filesystems we've been using here on earth for no reason. All that radiation that gets through with no atmosphere is going to cause bit flips all over the place!also, do nvidia H100/H200 use ECC memory?
>>106844304The billionaire midwits brain works on keywords. Like one of those word clouds they plaster on the walls of their corporate offices. He knows that two big words right now are SPACE and DATA CENTER. So he's going to combine those two. His minions will figure out what that actually means later, under penalty of losing their livelihoods.>CLOUD BASED + DRONES>AGENTIC + GIG ECONOMY>SUSTAINABLE + SHORT FORM CONTENT>AUTONOMOUS + SMART GLASSES>PLUG-IN HYBRID ELECTRIC + METAVERSE
>>106844311>difficult to cool (no atmosphere to dissipate heat, only radiative cooling)>high latency downlink>expensive to get equipment up>radiation>expensive/difficult maintenance>debris collision risk
Will it benefit piracy? Does copyright law apply in space?
>>106844515>heating up the oceansYeah, swell idea.
>>106844311>no cooling requirementsyou're just as dumb as bezos
>>106847608>only radiative coolingso not difficult>high latency downlinknot every dc service is latency sensitive>expensive to get equipment upnot when you have your own rockets>radiationnot a concern>expensive/difficult maintenancedecommission and replace instead of maintaining>debris collision riskjust go a bit higher
>>106847728>>only radiative cooling>so not difficultvery difficult actuallyall of the power used by computers is turned into heat
This is pants on head retarded.>low satellite to compute/data ratio>solar lmao, so low-spec’d, high efficiency components>no hardware upgrades possible>no repairs possible>oh also it’ll be expensive as fuck
>CEO of a tech company says something retarded>/g/ falls for itit's all so tiring
>>106844304muahahaha, no
>>106844313The same way the current gen of satellite are protected from debris?Are you retarded?
>>106848048If it can make you feel better : 80% of this thread is fake engagement spouted by thirdie-shill.
>>106844304Can't wait for drumpf to subsidize another of his buddies from the bald ass billionaire's club with taxpayers' dollars further making billionaires rich and the other poor while monopolizing the market!
>>106844312Fans. Take advantage of solar winds.
>>106844458I think about this whenever my Dad tells me a new data center is put up in Atlanta, GA lmao. They'll do anything but put them where they make sense.
>>106848613The secret is that you actually need some people to run data centers. People live in Atlanta, they don’t live in Antarctica.
>>106844304I dunno man, sounds like a real issue for maintenance. How easily could you even cool a fuckhuge, extremely power hungry data center in space?
>>106848649auughhhh noooo i cant find any sysadmin type nerds to move to antartica for a handsome salary and live in a basement!!!!!! - no one ever
>>106844312Heat? The radiation will kill any compute eventually.The atmosphere is equivalent to more than 10 feet thick concrete.
>>106848649There are much closer locations than Antarctica. A lot of Canada is uninhabited and cold, or perhaps somewhere that isn't similar to hell in the summer. Also, I would like to remind you, that people do maritime or oil rig work because it pays well. You can easily rotate staff in a similar fashion.
>>106848094datacenters are 100x bigger than a normal satelite DUMB ASS
>>106844374space is cold.
>>106851800still need radiators shit gets hot quick when you're in the sunshine
