Weird, that sounds anti-competitive.

They’re welcome to say that, as long as their ruler doesn’t enter the political or policy arena and have the moral depravity to act despite a conflict of interest. As long as corporations don’t have undue influence on politics from lobbying or donations.
We don’t have to listen.
Our representatives should be representing us. …… alright alright you can stop laughing now

A bunch starlink modems in an area can overload or whatever the nearby satellite. This is not feasible in its current form.

If Intel has to give the US government 5%, Starlink should have to give back 25%.

what do you mean fiber “plans”? do you guys not have fiber?
Squirrelanna@lemmynsfw.com 3 months ago
HahahahahaHHAHAHAAHSHAHAHAHDHDGF Country wide fiber in the US?? Think of the local monopolies gouging hundreds of dollars out of you for what amounts to dial up compared to fibre! Do you expect them to upgrade their infrastructure when they can do nothing and continue to make money??
ChetManly@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Nope… i don’t have cable or even great cell service and I live 45 minutes from a major city. Current ETA on fiber is mid 26.
pyre@lemmy.world 3 months ago
oh my god… I can’t believe I’m still getting surprised by how terrible things are in the US. it is the richest, poorest country.
Darleys_Brew@lemmy.ml 3 months ago
I live in a backwater northern U.K. town. We have fibre. I’d have thought somewhere like USA was rolling it out to most places.

Yeah, because all the gamers love to play online with a 3 second latency.

Those dial up days on avp2 were peak gaming though. I don’t want them to return, but I remember those days very well.
aliser@lemmy.world 3 months ago
do they know what competing is? fiber is much cheaper, stablier, offers less latency and more speed.

The term "tech neutral’ brings back terrible memories of the conservative Liberal successful campaign in #auspol against the #NBN (national broadband network) 😞

SpaceX can suck my cock
Vile_port_aloo@lemmy.world 3 months ago
SpaceX should deliver the service and access at the cost given and complete before the fiber team put a shovel in that ground.
Deflated0ne@lemmy.world 3 months ago
That’s insane.

Of course. In a month or two he can tell trump Dem statez are stupid and he should force them to do that.

While trump looks down and says “don’t take it out of your mouth again”
