Controlling the most widely used internet connection is power but couldn&#39;t a constellation of so many satellites be a weapon? Send 100 of them after a rival&#39;s low earth sat. One should be able to crash into it. You could arrange the satellites so that other launches would likely not make it past the &#34;wall&#34; of Starlinks. 2024-09-08T00:59:39Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsfnqvm2u4vxclmye2pttjynedjrquhmpfjxqh0xm6affwqdttz9kgzyz2vw3as2rczxazcejmu78aatvd8jyhw20mv7s5hfrz8z3t27r2tqwv80u7 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsd5aegsxfah0hh5kudkmqw42lyq84e3r5lsd49zwv9xfjwclrvjggcaq9ss'>nevent1q…q9ss</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I really like the music video &#34;You need to calm down&#34;<br/><br/><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dkk9gvTmCXY">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dkk9gvTmCXY</a><br/><br/>Also the whole album &#34;Lover&#34; has a good mix but that&#39;s more than 6 songs. 2024-08-09T04:31:57Z
