  • You need it every 100km

  • Obviously I'm not suggesting Ukraine should use cat6 or fiber, but those are exceptional situation and that's a military use case.

    I meant for day to day use, most people already live in urban area are satellites don't make sens

  • Copper at decent speeds requires more signal amplification then fiber

    Single-Mode Fiber (SMF): Max Length: Up to 100 kilometers (62 miles) or more without needing signal boosters or amplifiers

  • 4G or 5G would still be a better cheaper alternative, I'm not sure what bandwidth a starlink / whatever other alternative but my guess is that is much lower then a classic cell tower.

    Cell towers usually have multiple directional antennas, smaller coverage but much cheaper to maintain. Also can be fixed, can be upgraded to next generation. Satellites are pretty much one time use, can't be upgraded, can't be fixed, if something goes wrong the solution is to burn and send another one.

  • Obviously there is fiber, copper is usually "last mile". Its cheaper to have a long fiber and short copper. Copper more or less anyone can install, fiber is more specialized.

    I'm not proposing to reinvent the wheel, just continue what has proven to work.

  • I didn't say that cat6 should be used everywhere, usually is just for "last mile delivery" get it from your home to a switching box that has fiber.

  • I doubt they use the same satellites for GPS

  • Usually fiber is used between cities and in cities and copper is for the "last mile". Usually there is a switching box for the street / building complex

  • ~50m for cat6, ~100 cat6a, enough to get you to a switching box where you connect to fiber.

  • There are exceptions, but in most cases (in Europe) hardwire should work fine. The problem is that starlink is advertised for any use case.

  • I understand, but that is the exception. Even in your case probably getting 4G / 5G to that area would be cheaper / easier long term. Also Europe has a relatively high density compared with other continents

  • Unpopular opinion: we don't need freaking internet from satellites, just get cat6 in every home and everyone is happy. I'm sure the cost would be lower then having to launch 999999.91 satellites to have similar speeds

    There's a clear up tick on daily users growing and we've crossed the 50k line as of yesterday! LETSSS GOOO!

  • Probably we can thank king Trump and the magnificent 7 horseman.

  • Reddit will warn users who repeatedly upvote banned content

    Jump

  • Just a stupid question, if it's "banned content", why is it on Reddit?

  • Trump doesn’t seem to know why he launched a giant trade war

    Jump

  • I know why he did it. Because that's what his best best friend from Kremlin said and his two last working brain cells are in vacation playing golf.

    He probably doesn't understand that if US stops all trading, will become just a bigger North Korea with nukes.

  • fuck this

  • My point was that it can get bad really fast and I'm sure that there are already people who practice shooting oranges and maybe thinking of shooting a bigger orange.

    *I'm not saying this to encourage gun violence. Just that probably someone already thought to do a Mario brother on the big orange.

  • Two yeas is a God damn long time to wait, Putin is knocking on the door of Ukraine and probably other Baltic countries.

    And we like it or not EU is dependent on gas, be it Russian (direct or though 3 partirs) or US.

    And sorry but you (US) fucked up bad this time.

    PS: in 2 years maybe Greenland is US territory.
