The billionaire's game seems to be building infrastructure out to rural areas to ship more low-quality chinese goods to rural poors and build more warehouses. Consequently, they need internet where it's too expensive to lay copper and think they're going to use satellite. I have my doubts:I don't want it to happen.

The only way this is going to be profitable for Amazon is if they get the government to pay for it and keep all the profits. Socialized costs; privatized profits:Hilly billies need their shitty Chinese crap.
I try to buy stuff not made in China but it's impossible.
Slave labour = max profits.
At least with the starlink, you can remote work at some deserted point break in the South China Sea. #iwon't
Ray Davies was freaking out about this 30 years ago

This is insane - putting that many birds in orbit. I doubt it will live up to promises because it uses frequency bands that suffer high attenuation meaning Tx/Rx beam alignment will need to be very good, basically necessitating a direction-find receiver. It's one thing to make this work in a lab and quite another to make it work with satellites in orbit. Also, Farcebook and Google just cancelled similar projects using balloons.The goal is to launch 3,236 communications satellites into orbits that tightly hug Earth and provided high-speed, low-lag internet service to "tens of millions of underserved or unserved" customers, Dave Limp, Amazon's senior vice president of device and services, told TechCrunch during its Space 2020 virtual conference on Wednesday.
Nailed it. This is complexity for the sake of complexity. We used to have a rural form of tech called ag. Little guys could get into it, breed genetic lines of livestock and crops, and make a decent living. This was subsidized by rural light manufacturing: bathroom fixtures, silverware etc. Now we have none of those things because of guvmint price tampering and offshoring.And a complex one it is indeed!
This is just like when Sting tried to be an actor.
US Ag is still very robust. Globalization is a serious issue, but the real threat is economies of scale and consolidation. Little guys can’t stay afloat and end up selling out their piece to the big boys.Nailed it. This is complexity for the sake of complexity. We used to have a rural form of tech called ag.

Absolutely, especially in commodities. Fruit/veggie/nut growers have more flexibility and autonomy but they are feeling the pinch as well.The need for economies of scale were created by government tampering:
Economies of scale are really tough to beat, not just in ag but in any business. Econ 101, or is that Bus101?The need for economies of scale were created by government tampering:
I hated studying both of those. I dissociated.Economies of scale are really tough to beat, not just in ag but in any business. Econ 101, or is that Bus101?
