"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?! "
A satellite burning up in the atmosphere litters it with aluminum oxide. And this kills the ozone layer. While more UV spells cancer for all living beings, it also heats the planet further, AND all the ecocide and energy that went into mining all the materials in such a "short-lived" satellite is wasted. Lost to us forever. No recycling possible. Also: nothing grows in an abandoned bauxite mine. Nothing.
But I reckon, the EU, just like Musk, has found a Planet B, eh?

#MastoAdmin is there a golden rule for when to #update? Like, don't update to X.x version if you don't feel adventurous, only go for X.0x versions?
Bit scared to update my rather new instance as I don't feel competent enough to find and fix a broken limb, yet. But I use #-follow a lot and would much like to see the improvements live.
