Oh god I redid the math on re-entries:
Each Starlink v2 sat weighs 1250kg. They plan to have 42,000 of them in orbit.
Each satellite has a planned lifetime of 5 years. That means they'll be de-orbiting and replacing ALL of them every 5 years.
That comes to 23 sats per day, which is 29 TONS OF SATELLITE every day.
It doesn't go away, it gets added to the upper atmosphere. Most of the mass is aluminum. What the hell is that going to do?
WHY THE FUCK IS THIS OK?!
Remember #GameDev you should program games in C++ (the language of Sony and Microsoft) and not Linux 🤣💀

Clownservatives demand that the military shoot down that Chinese balloon.
The military says no, this would endanger people in the debris field below.
Nothing takes all the fun out of the far right's fantasies of blowing shit up like the people who actually do that for a living.
This is accurate ;)

One of the most popular cartoons I ever drew was about the Internet of Things, right after Google announced the acquisition of Nest in early 2014. “I think my Nest smoke alarm is going off,” one character tells another. “Google Adwords just pitched me a fire extinguisher and an offer for temporary housing.”
Kompromiss:
kein Tempolimit, aber dafür kommt das Heroin zurück in den Hustensaft
