The idea of datacenters in space is so retarded I don't even believe Elon Musk could be serious. I would put 'tesla roadster hovering on cold gas thrusters' above '100GW of orbital gpus' in probability. This is some economic shell game.
Even tesla - i never got the appeal. $80,000+ cars that MIGHT save you $10,000 of gas (vs battery cost) over the lifetime of the car. And you accept that the car controls everything, records everything, and even report it when needed. wtf?
One of the YouTubers I watch had a crash out this week over electric cars and solar power. You see, electric cars being expensive and their batteries wearing out is misinformation, and even if it wasn't, we can recycle batteries, and like 4 solar panels can charge your car!
Vacuum is a terrible conductor of heat, the only way to lose it is to dump hot mass out into space (impractical on a satellite) or radiate the heat away, which is slow and not great for very high heat applications like datacenters.
I'm sure he'll be able to trick some people into giving him money to pretend he's working on this. But I don't think he's ever going to actually attempt it.
If he wants to make one of his companies buy the other, that's fine. He can play with his dolls however he wants, but I would prefer if he didn't tell me retarded lies while doing it.

ALL of his companies are.

As a child I read a dystopian novel about something like this. It featured a mass casualty event due to the cars malfunctioning from tampering
You're just describing every new cars.
Even in shitcanada, I can get a fairly decent new car for $25,000 that costs very little in gas.
The ai/console BS i agree. New cars suck
Unless SpaceX has discovered a new form of heat dissipation or created the greatest radiators of all time, I can’t see how this will work.

Because he has the connections to engage in blatantly retarded shell games?
