      Reminder that Starlink (and T-Mobile via their home internet program) is bringing the modern internet to millions who couldn’t get anything more than conventional sattelite or dial up internet, both of which are comparable in speed to getting in your car and driving to the library.

      My point is that Starlink isn’t just a stupid toy for rich people to put on their RVs, yachts, and now planes, it’s many individual’s only way to connect to the modern internet.

      I hate Elon. I can’t hate on Starlink and the connectivity it’s provided to rural individuals with no other options. It’s really unfortunate that his name is attached to the work of the engineers that made it possible.
