Guess you just ignored the items I wrote.

I don't think I did; what you wrote just doesn't really address the problem. Yes, in a few industrial countries, raw materials that can be easily separated will be recycled. But that just isn't the real problem, when all the electronics and glued components and biological waste and mixed trash are impossible to recycle. People are told to just buy more stuff all the time, to a point where maintenance or repairs are e…

I dont disagree, but your original statement was extremely broad.

It certainly looks more correct than a response like this, normally you'd expect a counter point instead of just doing whatever it is you are doing.

evil-olive's comment includes citations for fake information like the "nanometer" feature size of the chips. everyone knows those numbers are meaningless! they have no relation to the chips' ability to survive radiation in any configuration! but evil-olive adds the citation chaff knowing HN will upvote to avoid feeling bad about having to disagree with a strident "absolutely never going to happen" claim.

I'd agree and that's what I was sort of commentating about - just a flat "you are wrong" is harder to do in a space where the answer isn't manifestly obvious.

I don’t think the flash storage would keep data integrity for that long without a lot of redundancy. Also, processing capacity would be limited as well. Is there a problem that can be solved with a LEO server that can’t be better solved with the same amount of money sitting in a datacenter somewhere?

$20 FPGAs have single event upset modules built in these days. You really think it's that hard to make a 2kB bootloader triple or quadruple redundant?
