SpaceX launched 6,000+ Starlink satellites. Now they're burning up in our atmosphere faster than planned.

The "temporary" space internet is becoming permanent space debris. Each satellite was supposed to last 5+ years. Many are failing in months.

Musk's backup plan for backup internet needs a backup plan.

I totally agree with your worries here, but just to update your numbers: There are more than 8,500 Starlink satellites in orbit as of today, and almost 10,000 have launched. planet4589.org/space/con/conli…

Death toll in Gaza from Israel's forced starvation rises to 453, including 150 children


The death toll from malnutrition caused by Israel’s forced starvation policy in Gaza has risen to 453 people since October 2023, the enclave's Health Ministry said.

A ministry statement on Tuesday said that 150 children were among Palestinians who died of malnutrition and famine in the territory, with food and other essential supplies blocked by a longstanding Israeli blockade.

I strongly doubt its only 453. The lack of clean drinking water must have killed thousands already and that falls into the starvation category imo. Or is there are a separate number for that?
in reply to unexposedhazard

This is pure direct starvation from lack of food. Not indirect murder through hygenics.
in reply to geneva_convenience

I think they were referring to dehydration but yeah, cholera probably isn't good for anyone.
in reply to geneva_convenience

People die from dehydration much faster than from starvation tho. If you are already not that healthy and only have access to food with little water in it, then 2 days without water will kill you. If you drink polluted water then you might get diarrhea which means you lose even more water and then you are definitely dead.

New album for Bandcamp Friday!

a catalog of devils by EMK

6 beatless ambient tracks for the asrpiring psychonaut to drift to.

This album rewards any level of listening, whether on in the background while sleeping or working, or actively listening with headphones.

Every song on this one was made with some kind of minimal process, whether done by hand with MIDI or by creating the system in the Bitwig Grid or VCV Rack.

Absolutely no AI was used on this album.

A 2016 study found that on average, fluoridated communities saved $32 per person each year by avoiding treatment for cavities.

But a water association could end fluoridation for 12,000 Lamar County residents, citing costs, supply and operator safety.
