And one Starlink Mini for travel which we used last month on a boat in the Mediterranean, we had a balcony with only a little bit sky horizontally and still got 25mbps, which was way faster than the onboard WiFi

Starlink pays ~$15 million in COGs for a Falcon 9. They fill it ~ completely since they optimize for F9. Even assume $20M COGs. Third parties pay $74 million retail for a F9 and can't fill it (3P payloads ≠ F9 optimized). Most people block this out; Retail price ≠ COGs! Related

The early money paid $75 billion for stakes in MuskWorld now marked at $1.57 trillion: 20x. But the cash flows to justify that do not exist. They are not on any horizon. So why? This is just plain weird. This is not NVIDIA, or TSMC, or Samsung, or ASML, or Apple, or any of the hyperscalers wth real cash flows: **Looking Askance Yet Again at MuskWorld: WEIRDNESS OF THE DAY** Musk torched one of his two profitable businesses and Starlink can’t carry anything like a $3 trillion valuation... 1/ Related

Suddenly many airlines are starting to offer free WiFi to all customers or loyalty program members. Starlink competition forcing them to do this? Related

I’m gonna delete this thread because I think people complaining about airlines on Twitter are pretty lame, including myself! That said, I think the takeaway is that the reason I was upset is precisely because of dashed expectations. If this were American I would have shrugged my shoulders. So I guess that’s a compliment to United, but also a reminder that it’s risky to advertise things (like Starlink) when you can’t yet confidently deliver on them. Anyhow, 28B on Southwest. Let’s go! 😅 America Related

I’ve been a big fan of what @united is doing in general, but from what I’ve heard (via other passengers and flight attendants), it seems they didn’t renew their Panasonic contract for widebodies while Starlink is rolled out. I’m pumped about Starlink and will seek out United once I know it’s available (had it this week and it was awesome). Until then, however, no Internet, particular on transoceanic flights, is unacceptable and a very poor choice by United’s management. I’ll be flying someone else for those for now. Quoting @sliccardo I’ve just endured my third consecutive long-haul flight on @united with no WiFi. I’ve just decided to choose any other airline available, even if I have to connect to DC through New Zealand. Related

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
