If moronic ideas makes you executive material, may I suggest the south pole? Imagine the cooling efficiency!
All we need is some power plants and other minor infrastructure.
I should be CEO of some company. 🤣🤣🤣
I would say equally stupid. Data centers essentially have two inputs and two outputs (obviously a lot more in real life), data/electricity and data/heat, respectively. All of those are easier on the ground, but removing heat makes it an absolute deal breaker in space. You simply can’t radiate that much heat in space. You would need unrealistically large surface area exposed to the vacuum of space.
Musk is an idiot, but I’m sure he was salivating over all the potential launch fees SpaceX would rake in if some doo-doo brain decided to actually haul a chip foundry into orbit.
Exactly, only a moron would think it’s a clever idea. And that Moron was Elon Musk.

I remembered it slightly wrong though, Musk wanted the data centers in space. Slightly less stupid, but only slightly.
Best place was the ocean, which Microsoft tried and decided it wasn’t worth it.
