You don't need the maritime dish, the 500$ one does it. The power consumption is <100W continuous, I would be surprised if cruise ships can't deal with that. I'll admit idk anything about rooms with patios vs not. It just

This type of infra only makes sense when you have Scaling People Problems to solve using technical solutions. Say you're MSFT and you need to let thousands of people of various skillset and skill levels, ship locally useful software at

It's not 2500$ for the normal dish, and you just set it up on the patio on its legs. 250$/m for fast internet at sea is a freaking modern miracle as far as I'm concerned.

What would stop you from bringing your own Starlink dish? Unless the ship travels too fast and you need to upgrade your service level for in-movement service, it would work.

You can turn on a toggle and it works offshore, for extra money. You can also pay for the full mobile thing. There's a bunch of tiers now, the most expensive ones allow coverage offshore.

Depends where they are I guess. At sea there's not much network contention so performance is good in my experience.

Starlink works incredibly well for my friends aboard their yachts. I think this is truly and amazingly a solved problem, as incredible as it looks to write this today.

The loud "pops" at superchargers and when driving after supercharging surprised me for a while. I would stop to look under the car if I had hit something. The pops while charging are sort of self-explanatory, but those while drivi

I find it confusing why the first type of AI "safety" is being focused on so much. A reasonable person will know that a tool like AI can spit out none-politically-correct things, and that reasonable person should shrug it off. But

Perhaps you're right, but their entire business plan is premised on you being wrong, so it sounds like there's at least some informed people who disagree: them. Personally I have no clue.

It has a lot of users that keep using it, despite all the fud saying otherwise. And they're shipping more features than before, and experimenting more. So it's bound to either die violently or eventually find another growth engine

It's not just "restructuring" a business that's a 501(c)3... to make it a golden goose for MSFT. The whole thing was created to avoid one of Big Tech having a monopoly on AI, and it turns into Big Tech having a monopoly.

What kind of recourse do the banks have, in practical terms? My bet is that taking any action is just going to materialize their loss, and inaction and cutting X some/a lot of slack will allow them to perhaps not lose as much in the lo

It'll be a good day when everyone stops giving in to these ransom seeking parasites. I wonder how hard law enforcement goes looking for them? They're taking society hostage left and right.

Tesla may be facing headwinds, but reality is these legacy car maker's products are just not competitive with Tesla. Many are going to die in the transition, as they can't make a great all integrated product. They just don't

Repair costs are high when you need to repair them, but you basically never need to repair them, so in my book it's a wash. I've had two EVs now and never had to bring any of them to the shop. No oil change, nothing. I'm gues

It's a small expense for employers, and can be a real difference in costs for the employee. I don't think you're correct. If I spend 100% more on heating everyday because I work from home so need to heat 24/7, that'
