The level of ignorance from you musk haters is hilarious. Starlink has done 100xs more for rural areas than the nearly trillion we gave to the telecoms. Yea musk is a dick but you’re ignorant as fuck if you think starlink is a scam.
If it’s not a scam, then they don’t need that money.
Then neither does any other telecoms that took nearly a trillion dollars and haven’t done even half of what starlink has done in under 10 years for rural broadband.
Yes. Exactly.
Hey, you’re catching on!
Giving government money to muskrat companies is the scam.
Yea…fuck all those people who work on projects that have literally changed humanity for the better…
Have you tried gaming on satellite internet?
Yea starlink isn’t geo sat. It’s Leo and has ping around 20-30ms, basically the same as cable. If you’re trying to compare starlink to sat internet of the past, like vianet then you’re confused, as they’re completely different.
Do you personally have starlink and experience those ping levels? Reports from people online claim higher ping times.
Yes, I did, but now have a wired connection through my coop electric company. I don’t know where your getting that ping is higher, go look at the /r/starlink subreddit, tons of people post their speeds there.
People will keep down voting you, but I just wanted to stop in and let you know that there are other people like you who can read.
People on Lemmy are leftist AF and their seething hate for Musk clouds their ability to think.
Yea I know, literally SpaceX has helped NASA out a ton and do a lot of ground breaking work, but because musk is involved, they want all of his shit to fail
It is genuinely concerning the mentality round here, anything with musk must be bad and no one wants to even consider the possibility it’s not. That’s certainly not the only subject like that either, people are very clearly basing options on what suits their personal beliefs rather than what is baked up by fact.
Well you know we get that mentality by observing what he does, listening to what he says, seeing who he keeps company with, and paying attention to the demeanor of the people under him. It’s not very complicated.
Yep, waiting for all the bashing of AWS since bezo runs Amazon…the level of hate companies get that are tied to musk in anyway is insane. Musk is a mouth piece and a shit one at that but musk isn’t making these companies and doing the work, hundreds of thousands of people are.
And yet HE gets all the money and glory for doing nothing but acting like an asshole.
What should happen is that he be removed from all of these compenies and replaced with a competent leader…and no, Musk is NOT a competent leader.
