No, the article says the exact opposite. The proposed problem is that less satellites de-orbit on schedule because atmospheric drag is reduced. Debris and derelict satellites stay in LEO for longer than they were scheduled to, and will be scheduled to stay in space longer in the future. Both of these factors significantly reduce the ability of LEO to 'carry' more satellites. This is amplified massively by mega constellations such as Starlink, but it's probably to their benefit; they get to keep their expensive littering satellites in service for longer and will use less of the expensive argon to maintain their orbit.

Thank you for providing a link to the original; catbox continues to be blocked for many

Deliberately or not, this post is an advertisement.

They don't respond on any platforms, so I doubt that.

It's probably some dude testing the waters for a mass-spamming bot.

Are you?

Adam Something has repeatedly used "Super Capitalism" as a conservative-friendly way of saying worker co-ops. You'd know this if you paid attention to the video, or watched his other videos.

I, for one, am enjoying this new game of cat and mouse.

On my main domain I employ a tarpit that triggers on 404 and returns 200 so the bot doesn't think it was a 404. It then prints a bunch of unique links that go nowhere (404, so loops back to itself) and starts very slowly printing a 13 megabyte string of base64. If your bot can deal with all of this, go ahead man. You can have it.

I have a honeypot on one of my lesser domains which simply takes incoming IPs and scans them for the usual HTTP ports. I'm gonna be careful what I say in public but 80% of traffic are scanners that identify themselves and 19% are unknown, likely scrapers, and 1% are unknown, likely still scrapers, that for some reason have open admin interfaces with default logins. Do what you want with this information.

I only looked at dumpdrop and it seemed fine, to me. Compared to other similar projects which are 10 times as large and provide essentially the same functionality. The world of web-based file-uploading solutions is fucked.

Can you explain the difference to me such that my feeble mind may understand?

 
 
 

The bottom of this ballmount can rotate.

The bracket is attached with a screw to the bottom of the ballmount and requires rotation to unscrew.

The screw is so tight that, even with the ballmount rotation locked, it still just rotates the ballmount.

I can't clamp the sides of the ballmount bottom as it is too fragile.

Surely I am not the first person in the world to have this problem. Is there a trick to getting this loose?

I tried leaving it in the fridge, hoping it would shrink enough to come loose or something but no dice.

Thank you for your time, feel free to laugh at me.
