Yep, you can only do so much risk management and hedging, and only for so long. There comes a time when you have to cut it off but, you know, hubris

I assume he has enough funds to buffer and roll it forward if it takes longer than he thinks.

The post here on Lemmy is 11 hours old, but the study is from 2020. Read the fucking article for fuck’s sake!

I don’t mean to be harsh, but good God…

Well that’s kind of reassu… oh

It’s great having a separate profile for when you tell bbc iPlayer you have a tv licence.

Computer think, therefore… Computer

Except it doesn’t do much of anything effectively

I think you’re right on the money. There seems to be a component of enticing power users to stick with Windows as well. The app is still “in beta” despite the first release being in 1996 (!). I had to look that up, because I’d only heard about it in the early windows 10 days.

There are other legacy satellite providers like hughesnet that are somehow still hanging on. They don’t really hold a candle to starlink performance-wise, and they shit the bed in bad weather, but at least they’re not Elon. There’s going to be a lot of latency, but it’ll feel blazing fast if you’re coming from dialup.

There are other dialup providers still remaining as well, besides AOL. I know msn is still kicking at least. It’s kind of funny to think about receiving dialup service when almost all POTS lines have gone away, and much of the modern web will be borderline unusable without lots of tweaking, but at least grandma who lives out in the sticks can check her email, use chat clients, download articles and books, etc.

All cats are communists, obviously. They have no respect for concepts of “ownership” and expect to be housed and fed according to their needs.

Such is the nature of the hacker spirit, for better or worse.

the linked article did mention apartments were “abandoned”, so maybe it is actual organized crime local to NYC. Whoever it was would have to be pretty entrenched to know where is safe to set up.

If it were just run of the mill spam/scam stuff, why not just use VoIP or contract out like the rest of them do? It would certainly be cheaper if that were the goal. There are many, many different reasons to want so many local numbers that are beyond the obvious. Personally, I have questions.
