    If you use starlink, you deserve far worse. 5g is usually sufficient unless you’re out in the ocean or something. Either way it’s ruining the night sky, making launches more dangerous, destroying the ozone layer we tried so hard to repair, and supporting death and fascism.

      destroying the ozone layer

      This made me ask “wait, is that true” and apparently it is. Super, skin cancer for everyone. 🤦

      5G in rural America is terrible. I can’t make a phone call in my house, let alone get an internet connection. I’m not even in a particularly remote area.

      There are Starlink dishes everwhere you look here because it’s currently the only real option. It will probably be a while until they get some competition from Amazon.

          The local ISP has been promising fiber for over a decade. They waited until Starlink took most of their customers before they started putting it in.
