Enables it for 30 days. Such a massive cut in usability on top of tripling in price for existing users does deserve derision.

This is what happens when there is no competition. There is no better alternative, and if demand goes up...

Before starlink existed, there was also no competition.

So what, nobody is allowed to launch any product unless it also has a competitor?

I don't know how you got there but no that's not the implication.

Thread is complaining about starlink having no competition.

It is, but it's not complaining in the weird way you interpreted it.

What? I'm confused by your reply.

I meant that Starlink adjusting prices shouldn't be surprising, if anything it is still cheap (IOM).

I got a mini on sale at HD for ~200, paid 0/mo -> 5/mo now $10/mo to keep online as a backup. Amazing tech IMO and cheap.

Thread was complaining about starlink having no competition. That's like complaining AWS had no competition a couple years after it launched.

It's so weird to me the attribution of collective efforts to a single individual.

> his company used to offer an even better option

Yes, it's a degradation in service not unlike a bait-and-switch.

I just don't understand how you can hold your mental model of the world.

>>It's so weird to me the attribution of collective efforts to a single individual

Yeah, totally never happened with Steve Jobs and Apple.

Yes, and that was weird too, to anyone not a blind fanboi.

I mean neither of them are physically assembling iPhones or Teslas, but I do think Apple and Tesla/Starlink/Whatever would be different companies without them.

>It's so weird to me the attribution of collective efforts to a single individual.

Why didn't you reply to the guy blaming Musk personally for the plan changes?
