I, for one, welcome our new Starlink overlords!

Apparently this video is a week old, but I just received the notification. I don't know who this member of the Linus staff is, but he was impressed.

Apparently since Starlink is 6.5 times as close as normal satellites they are a couple of times faster or something.
There is supposed to be a full review on the main channel, but I haven't seen it yet.

It is supposed to start at $99 monthly. I don't know how that compares with our Internet, but I have clients outside of city limits with a poor connection. Sometimes we need to do audio over the phone and when I visited them in-person, sometimes I couldn't look up stuff on my phone, so maybe this would be useful for people that I know.
