[–] Lodespawn@aussie.zone -3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (6 children) You may note that this thread is talking about data centre reliability .. Also you can't radiate heat in space .. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 8 points 4 months ago (1 child) You can ONLY radiate heat in space.. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 1 point 4 months ago Yeah I'll pay that, you can't radiate it effectively enough for data centre applications though. permalink fedilink source parent [–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca -1 points 4 months ago (3 children) Also you can’t radiate heat in space … How does the Sun work? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] Sylvartas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 months ago (2 children) Mostly emitting ungodly amounts of photons and radiations, as far as the earth is concerned. Is that actually cooling it though ? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] xthexder@l.sw0.com 3 points 4 months ago* (1 child) Yes, all that emitted radiation does cool down the sun. It's why it has a mostly stable temperature instead of getting hotter infinitely. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 1 point 4 months ago Oh so youre saying we should convert the heat generated by the data centres to wide spectrum EM and emit that instead? Amazing! There should be no issues with outputting watts or kilowatts of EM from each of these assuredly numerous space data centres. permalink fedilink source parent
