For me the irony is how she was leading the AI team and now has to go to Xbox and talk about how memory and storage is just so expensive for some reason.

High speed internet from constantly decaying satellites is not necessary.

Honestly I was never going to get in on gamepass no matter how good a deal it was because I would lose access to games no matter how long I had been paying to play them. In the same respect I don’t like leasing a car, I would rather buy used and accept all the problems that come out of it because eventually I could stop making payments.

I can see why people would enjoy it but it was never for me.

I’ll be short with you.: I don’t care how much nicer starlink is, putting that many satellites into low earth orbit all the time is not good for the climate. The few thousand people on ships at any given time can wait to stream high def porn or download it while at port. All the needed uses of the internet can be met via slow higher orbiting satellites.

Wait so you’re saying the ships, just the ships moving across the pacific are enough reason to have low earth orbit satellites in such quantity they impede things as simple as looking at the stars? The ships can get internet from higher earth orbit satellites that don’t have to be constantly replaced. We haven’t been choosing between internet and no internet with starlink, there has been satallite internet way before starlink and there will be way after. All it takes is a less cooperative FAA not allowing so many rocket launches for the AI nazi company and slowly holes form in the coverage as the satellites burn up.

Give it 50 years of replacing satellites and I am willing to bet a one time install of fiber would have been cheaper.

Starlink has always been a shitty cell service at best. Only now the towers have to be entirely replaced every three or so years if memory serves.

Coulda just run fiberoptic but that would be the boring solution with a lower return.
