A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Yeah, but it’s pretty cool that the orbiting pile of garbage can dodge space debris…
Ah, the new Lemmy switcharoo!
Hold my garbage, I'm going in!
A lot of the debris is man made that we put up there is my point.
Now there’s a bunch more of it was my joke.
The only solution? Put more of it up there, of course!
Does space debris have any known natural predators?
Yes, other space debris.
And gravity.
Atmosphere. Gravity just helps smash them against it.
Even without an atmosphere, gravity would pull the debris to crash into the planet itself.
