@reckless My question about Starlink... Can I use it for videoconferencing for work? My house doesn't have fiber yet and my cable internet discount is about to expire. $100/month is my future cable internet price and I think rockets & sats are way cooler than buried copper cable.

I have a very close friend who’s a researcher studying public health at a major NGO, and he told me that this was THE week to practice as much social distancing as possible, even if you don’t have to go to work.

I asked him to explain why. Sharing his answers w/ permission (1/x)
