      Still waiting for anything not-Musk-related for personal Internet, to be honest.

      The nearest thing is actually Kuiper / Amazon Leo, which is just another billionaire’s plaything.

      I have STUPIDLY clear skies. TERRIBLE broadband. And I’m happy to pay.

      But, honestly, there just isn’t a product out there that I’m willing to touch.

      Ah, the EU still pumping billions into something that is already available, called Eutelsat/OneWeb. Strangely, which is already being used by European governments.

      Idiotic idea, the fact that Europe is trying to mindlessly parrot it is a testament of how far we have fallen. There is no world in which it’s cheaper to launch thousands of short-lived satellites every few years than to blanket the countryside with fiber and cell towers, which we should be doing instead

      Last phrase (a part about Russia) is priceless. It’s Putin’s Russia summed up to the tee. :-))

      A great example of the problem with Europe – we always end up scrambling for an „answer to ….“. We need to be leaders in technology fields, not just the R&D but actually deploying services at scale and an affordable price point.

      If the UK or EU went full authoritarian, the US would have very little need to „uncouple“ on any technical front.

      I’m actually a little worried about all the stuff in orbit. There’s a real chance that the amount of debris eventually will lock future generations inside the atmosphere.

      290 satelites is tiny amount compared to starlink 10k, still this is good move, more autonomy is needed
