Yeah they deal with that in the book series. Lots of AI who do space traffic routing space ships around the beams so as not to get fried.
It’s also used as a weapon in the books to defend the solar system. Fune books. I read em once a year or so.
Space based mirrors for asteroid mining. Bounce a sh*tton of light from the sun around and just melt asteroids. Love that in the Troy Rising series.
Lots of problems getting there irl (need a better way to get out of the gravity well, and light speed lag for command and control would be a real issue) but the idea is just too fun.
Love this one!
Nice, started the repo and will check it out!
PeerTube as an alt for YouTube. Half the folks I follow on YouTube have a channel on tilvuds.com I’ve found, so it works for me.
Came to recommend pixelfed. I have not set up bookwyrm yet, is it good?
We always try to give stuff that can be used up. Art pads, scratch art, that sort of thing. So we expect things to not stay forever.
Of course we live in a tiny NY apartment and so do our kids friends, so that colors our choices.
