Theres a difference between people in different countries talking freely, and people selling internet connections to residents in another country where they have no company registration.

As the sibling comment asked, did this change when you reconnected or did it kick you off and give you a new IP in the middle of a connection?

As opposed to a ground trip to a local base station and then a trip around the world on the ground? Sounds like it would be the same to me.

I agree with the parent comment, each country should control the communications in its own airspace. Surely this is how it works? Starlink cant just start selling internet in countries it has no jurisdiction or communications license in?

I hadnt even considered that there were multiple ground stations. I just assumed the Starlink satelites would just all bounce the signal back to base in the US.

How do Starlink IP addresses work with Geolocation? Does Starlink have access to IP address blocks for all coutnries and issue them out based on registration and/or GPS data? Or do all starlink customers worldwide get issued US IPs?

All of that will be solved by miniturisation and advancement of tech. I think you are short sighted (haha!) to think that headsets and glasses are different categories, and that headsets are not just a preliminary research phase to things i

You know you might just have a point if you werent completely making that all up. Steve Jobs consistently made the point that Apples hardware is the same as everyone elses, what makes them different is they make the best software which enab

Why not go and hit up OpenAI and tell them you've solved AGI and ask for a job and see what they say?

Yeah, everyone says stuff like this but nobody can actually produce any reliable sources to show how much profit it actually makes. So until you can, its all guess work.

IMO a middle man means you are in between 2 other services, taking a cut off the top. In this instance, apple not only created and curate the app store, but also invented the concept. In this case they are definitely not a middle man, they

I still believe they purposefully throttled the last gen of intel Macs just to make people have bad memories of them.

OK So I guess when the CEO of a company explicitly says something about their company, we should just ignore it because he is 'in the moment'?

Where are you getting these numbers from, care to share source? We should be comparing profit on those departments not revenue. Do you have those figures? It is well known that companies often sell the physicval devices at a loss, in order

What do you mean? This problem has already been solved and is just a case of miniturisation which history has shown the industry can do very quickly. 5 Years and there will not be a 'headset' on sale anymore. It will all be normal

Apple has always been a software first company, and they only sell the hardware as a vehicle to their software. They regularly say this themselves and have always called themselves a software company. Compare their hardware revenues with th
