maybe overkill, but i do that... got 7 servers in total around the world (2x London, 1x Frankfurt, 2 in Amsterdam, 1 in Ashburn and 1 in Dublin (Home)) and all (except home) have full routes with their upstream providers and a few IXes too.

the Guinness Factory ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guinness_Brewery ) has a 9000 year lease... they pay IRL£45 per year for the lease... Not sure what that works out in Euro with inflation...

Not sure I like this idea. I do like Krypt.co, cause the private key is stored on your phone in the Secure Enclave, and in the case of sharing, it's something related to the users public key being added and removed after use. This, I&#

Not directly, no, but stick Cloudflare in front and now you have a cdn that the storage is cheap and depending on tier you pick, cdn is free. Even the bandwidth from b2 to Cloudflare is free.

> which gives 1 Gb/s per 125 simultaneous users in this high-density area. That's not great, but it's also not awful. thats per satellite... wouldnt you, in theory, have access to multiple satellites? i though the theory

At the price of both of these services, am I the only one thinking "why not both"? It a LOT cheaper for both than standard cable or satellite (here in Europe anyway) and both would have stuff the other does not. Title sounds very

mobile phone numbers can receive both sms and calls, so a mobile number would work, but you are right. it seems (in Ireland anyway) that getting a mobile number for VoIP stuff is fairly hard... you would need physical SIM cards and hardware

Doesn't this stopping distance depend on the car? Said German cars have bigger breaks and bigger tyre surface and have been proven to stop quicker. Top Gear showed this often (Australian trip with the m6, Bentley and gtr) all stopping
