When the war was turning in Ukraine’s favor and they were about to push into Russia, he shut it off and crippled their counter offensive. I remember. Fuck Elon and fuck starlink.
Not push into Russia, but attempting to retake Crimea.
They’re presumably talking about the Kursk Oblast.Edit: probably not, see responses.IIRC that was long after that. The initial shutoff of Starlink happened around the explosions targeting the Crimean bridge and them introducing their naval drones.
Don’t let the fascists fool you, there are alternatives to Starlink. Eutelsat in France, Telesat in Canada and Inmarsat in the UK, just to name a few examples.

It’s faster, cheaper, and on the tech side more reliable (definitely not politically reliable though).
My guess is better coverage and latency with its sheer number of satellites.
They use low earth orbit, which require them to use more satellites, but lowered latency.
Technically, and this is purely semantics, coverage is the major downside to starlink. They are faster, though.
The coverage of satellites has an exponential factor of the distance of that satellite to earth. If you had the satellite further out then its signal could reach a wider area before being cut off by the curvature of the earth. However, as the distance increases, so does latency.
He also challenged Zuck to a cage match and chickened out when Zuck accepted. They’re both pieces of shit.
He even chickened out of his recent offer to come on the Daily Show and debate Jon Stewart! He’s a Nazi coward even when it’s just talking…
“Be quiet small man”… smallest dick energy I’ve seen today.
Dick so small he probably drives a Cybertruck.

Thankgod we’re already working hard on that…
Elon Musk’s atoms are poorly arranged for maximizing utility to the human race and would be better served if they were rearranged into fertilizer for feedcrops. At present they are just in a cloud of un-thought. Utilitarianism must be respected.

How do you speak our language?
There is no substitute for Starlink"
The fuck did he think militaries use before 2020?
Abandon fucking Starlink and use Eutelsat. Poland should also stop buying US made weapon systems.
As much as I hate Elmo, you can fold Starlink terminal flat and put in a backpack and it weights around 6 kilogram and costs around $500, Eutelsat „portable” OW70L is fucking chonky dome that weights 30 kilos, costs $2000 and needs to be transported in a car. They need to seriously up their game, and do it fast.
Nationalize SpaceX and deport Musk to South Africa where he belongs.
(Ok maybe nationalize it under the next administration… if there is a next one)
I have a question is an immigrant allowed to be vice president ?
No right ?
That’s right, I think foreign born citizens can hold any office except president or vp
Maybe Trump was born somewhere else…
Is he calling people small now to compensate for his fat ass looking like Doctor Robotnik?
Twitters UI confuses me. Where do I start? What’s the next one? And where’s the end?
It starts in the middle. It’s smaller and indented because it’s then being quoted by the Polish minister on top. Then Elon, fuckwit that he is, responds at the bottom.
How is that coherent lol. What happens when 4 or 6 tweets are twoted?
It was never meant to be used like this, and Twitter just never changed it out of pure stubborn bullshit
The original idea is that you’d retweet something, say something like “check out this bullshit” and then read the re-tweet, but people regularly use it as a reply feature that boosts to their audience instead and so this UI insanity happens
did elon really say “pipe down pipsqueek” like that worked well for drake? man people with canadian citizenship gotta stop doing that.
Soary :(
