   @elfin @juliewebgirl have either of you tested the latency of Starlink? I've heard from a friend he has 60-80ms so no problems with this stuff

     It's fine for Web (YouTube down) but SSH/ Mosh (70% of my day) gonna suck.

     Lag? Latency.

     sudo -i

     s u d o _ <BackSpc> - i

     Tons of fun when troubleshooting.

     I'll beta test their shit (with my VPN even). Sign us (me) up.

     @elfin
     Yeah I've seen this. We could join and beta test 🙄

     Like who are these salesmen who are talking them into this shit??

     I don't care how space age shiny it is, it's still gonna be laggy af.

     I'd rather go back to dial up.

     You're gonna detonate when I tell you this shit with our business accounts with T-Mobile. In case you missed it.

     They can compete all they want. I will give up the Internet before I use satellite connections for Internet.

     And I'm in a lovely area with shit for signal.
