Rural UK here. Tiny country in comparison to the US. Our village has no mobile signal. Our landline internet maxes out at 1mbit up and 10mbit down. We are 3miles from a town with 15k people. Why is there no infrastructure? I’m completely dependent on Starlink.

I couldn't agree more. Living in the UK I can tell you this is a dangerous opinion to hold. To me, their music is like nails on a chalk board. I cannot stand their music. I could never quite explain why. I've always just put it down to taste. But it's annoying to have to deal with just how much EVERYONE loves them for some reason. Like, there isn't much music I'd hate to hear more than Queen. I almost find it weird that this is the case. I sort of wish I liked them, so that there weren't so many occasions where I have to listen to music that I find shockingly bad.

Piracy ends when content is offered in a convenient fashion. It's always been this simple and always will be. Naturally, rich and out of touch people want to believe that more authoritarianism is the solution, because they got rich through their contempt for humanity, so why should this be any different?

I have played countless hours of this. Even against AI, this game is great fun. It's mind-blowing to think it's free.

Sollte das Ei-Eh nicht eher Eh-Ei sein? Oder ist der Witz dass das auch noch falsch rum gesagt wird?

And as another counter, in my village there is no (!!) signal at all. At my house I can only get one bar of 4G outside the house. Broadband is capped at 1mbit up and 10mbit down. But we have Starlink, so it’s fine. Not everyone can afford that though. The infrastructure has been promised for a decade now. Beyond ridiculous. Being in a national landscape (formerly AONB) doesn’t help either
