Issue seems like it would be the need for a breakwater or ships large enough to weather inclement weather and the occasional rogue wave.
The great junk armada would sink rather quickly.

It only "Breaks the world" so long as we clutch to the idea that humans need to produce work in order to live.
Set the floor on basic rights and AI makes our lives easier.
F***ing billionaires clutching their pearls over this shit because they're so comfy with things the way they have been.

Was watching a video on someone flying a brand new jet up as high as it could go. Full afterburners, straight up.
Mentions altimeter is spinning like in "Looney Toons".
Engine caps at 60km due to lack of oxygen.
Says you can see the curvature of the earth. Blue on black.
Google how high space is.
Holy f***
100km.
Dude just broke about halfway.
We're gonna need a lot of water rockets.
Back to op though, I kind of like the idea of pressurizing things deep see if we can build an efficient track down/back. (Not necessarily for space ends)
They're looking at underwater pressure tanks as a form of energy storage. Put a bulb on the bottom of the sea. When you have excess energy, pump air into it. (at high pressure.) When you want energy back, run hydro on the water filling it back up.
Neat stuff.

Don't know about the new model, but I've had a note 9s for 3 years now and it's doing fine.
Don't use any of the default software, asks for too much access for trivial things and with the latest core update they removed the ability to change even the wallpaper without giving "themes" access.
Great camera and cheap, works ok with a T-Mobile reseller in the states.
Getting ready to swap out the firmware for a more secure open source variety. We'll see how that goes.

Agreed. Not only cease any purchases I would have made. But talk shit about them for years, even after their satellites fall back down.
I'm already conflicted about the useful satellites that are up there lighting up the sky. And those have utility. Ads are garbage.

Thanks for the recommendation.
Added to my list.
Currently working through Brin's Uplift Saga and enjoying that as campy as it is.

When you feel stressed, remember to calmly breathe.
It's one of the few things we can do that directly affects our parasympathetic nervous system. (I think that's the term)
Breath signals your heart and brain to come out of the stress-hornome cycle.
Game changer that.
