I live in the Ozarks with no good alternatives for internet. I have Starlink and my latency is hovering at 25-90 ms. Up and down speeds are enough to enjoy this site and stream Rumble no problems.
Name checks out.
I gamed on Starlink. It was actually a really good experience. ... That is, until spring came, and one giant tree blossomed and blocked a small portion of the path, and when I gamed, it was partially obstructed view. I removed the tree, ran into other issues with Starlink (ended up being a ethernet cable adapter) and I already switched back to cable. (also, I cut that pesky tree down). Now, I don't know whether to go back to starlink or stick with cable.
Starlink - more expensive, surprisingly better than the local cable and fiber optic
Cable - cheaper, "faster", supporting Breezeline, Canadian company (with ties to comcast possibly)
Tree in way of internet, cuts tree down
kek, that made me laugh
Look, it was a stupid tree anyways. 😂
Tree sap and … blocking the internet I no longer use … … … probably other stuff.
Like that story about that captain on a hug3 military ship in the dining room having the sun in his face and ordering the ship to shift like 1 degree in its course to change the angle light went in rather than simply move the table.
