What’s the deal with gaming videos? Do game streamers tend to be Nazis? Seems like a strange place to push right-wing propaganda.

This makes me think that the Starlink system is very poorly designed. I know there are hundreds of satellites, and a large number of base stations.

Even if a large chunk of the satellites were taken out and a few base stations failed, shouldn’t the system keep working, just over a different path?

This sounds very much not like a hardware failure, but more like somebody fucked up.

For what it’s worth, I agree with you 100%. I’d love to see Musk fail in every one of his business endeavors, but if we’re going to drop space garbage over the planet, an uninhabited island seems like a great place to do it. The fact that a small group of people has superstitious ideas about that small patch of land should be irrelevant.
