I dismissed your idea because it’s bad. I decided to not waste my time explaining on the basis of the language you use.

The fact that I have to clarify this confirms I made the right decision.

I’m not taking scientific inputs by somebody who starts sentences with “bro”.

You need to put the heat somewhere. In the vacuum, heat can only transfer by radiation, which is much less efficient.

It is notoriously hard to cool things in space. There’s no water or air to dump the heat.

Ohh, I forgot about that. Not sure if that coup would have made things better, but it was an interesting time.

And he barely managed to diffuse a coup attempt.

Why countries that do not prosecute political dissent bock apps used by political dissenters? /s

Because that’s not our threat model.

I want to be anonymous for the sites I visit. I want my ISP, who’s likely selling my data, to have none. I want to use a WiFi without anybody sniffing.

I’m lucky enough to live in a county were I’m not prosecuted for my ideas or who I am, and I’m not doing anything illicit aside from torrent.
