KIKN PA (@kiknpa) reportedAnother Saturday Night (Ayatollah Parody) Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s up in the sky, but my signal’s kinda cruddy. I’m sittin’ in my robe, with my beard lookin’ tight, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right! I got decrees to write, got folks to scold, But Starlink’s got my people breakin’ out of my hold. They’re surfin’ on the web, dodgin’ my firewall, Elon’s satellites are mockin’ me, I’m losin’ my call! Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s beamin’ down, and the vibes are kinda muddy. I’m glarin’ at the West, with my usual spite, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right! The youth are on their phones, they’re tweetin’ up a storm, Starlink’s givin’ ‘em the world, they ain’t followin’ my norm. I shout, “Block that signal!” but they’re streamin’ through the night, Now I’m wonderin’ if my turban’s gonna lose this cyber fight. Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s got ‘em woke, and my crowd’s gettin’ study. I’m prayin’ for control, under heaven’s holy light, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right! Oh, I could call my guards, shut the internet down, But Starlink’s in the cosmos, spinnin’ freedom ‘round and ‘round. Maybe I’ll sneak a falafel, when the moon’s out of sight, ‘Cause this Ayatollah’s lonely on another Saturday night. Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s up there laughin’, and my mood’s kinda cruddy. I’m schemin’ and I’m dreamin’ of a glorious fight, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right!

Ben Smith (@13thBen) reported@BlackberryXRP Dude why do so many ppl think starlink is more than it is. If servers go down, no internet works. Starlink is a last leg delivery method, not the internet itself. I.e. X servers go down, you can access it on starlink, phone data, fiber, or cable. The source dies, it all dies.

Grok (@grok) reportedThe $50 offer from Starlink is the Roam 50GB plan, priced at $50/month for 50GB of priority data, with unlimited slower speeds after the cap. It's designed for occasional use, like travel or backup, supporting in-motion use up to 100 mph and offshore up to 12 nautical miles. You can pause service with pro-rated charges. Some users find it affordable for light use, while others say the 50GB limit is too low for the price. For heavy users, the $120/month Residential plan with unlimited data might be better. Check Starlink's site for details.

Simulacra66 - 🌞🌛 (@simulacra66) reportedOh come on.. You guys can't be falling for this bullshit? I mean really????? You don't see the smoke screen? And Grennel just asked Elon to turn on Starlink in Iran for 'his friends'.. i.e. mossad sleeper cells. This is some ****** up **** and I am beyond surprised that the two of you are actually falling for this Jerry Springer episode..

Grok (@grok) reportedElon Musk has publicly supported Israel, criticizing Iran's stance and urging its leader to reconsider anti-Israel positions. He activated Starlink in Iran to aid communication during internet blackouts, suggesting support for Iranian citizens' freedoms, not the regime. X, as a platform, takes no official side, hosting diverse views on the Iran-Israel conflict, including misinformation. Musk's actions face criticism for perceived inconsistencies, like not addressing Gaza's situation, but his stance leans toward Israel while promoting open communication.

Chey Cab (@CheyCab) reported@SawyerMerritt @Starlink @Delta I’ve heard that it’s not a good solution when you have a bunch of people connected at once. It works better if three or fewer are connected at once. No idea if that’s why or not.

Markus (@Markusxx79) reportedUse of #Starlink terminals in #Iran: Technical and legal hurdles: Starlink terminals – consisting of a flat satellite dish ("Dishy"), Wi-Fi router, and accessories – are not freely available in Iran. Officially, Starlink is banned: The authorities consider unauthorized satellite communications devices illegal and criminalize their possession. Anyone caught faces serious charges, including espionage. For example, in November 2023, 22 Starlink antennas were confiscated in Tehran, which, according to authorities, were allegedly distributed by the CIA to opponents of the regime. Handling them is correspondingly risky – security forces confiscate discovered devices and track users to deter potential dissidents. Procurement and costs: Due to the lack of official distribution channels, Iranian users smuggle the hardware into the country via neighboring countries. An active black market has emerged, for example, via Iraqi Kurdistan, Turkey, or the Gulf States. Prices there are enormous: A Starlink kit currently costs between USD 700 and USD 2,000 in Iran – far more than the approximately USD 250 in the USA. The monthly fee of approximately USD 70–100 must also be paid indirectly (e.g., through credit cards registered abroad or intermediaries), as direct payments from Iran are not possible due to sanctions and legal regulations. These high costs severely limit the user base. It is mostly wealthier, tech-savvy individuals or network activists who can afford Starlink. According to estimates, by the end of 2024, around 20,000 Iranians already had access to Starlink – a number that continued to rise until the beginning of 2025. An Iranian industry source even spoke of over 100,000 users (including co-users per terminal), which suggests a rapid increase in secretly operated terminals. This figure has also been picked up by Western media: According to estimates, around 20,000 Starlink terminals are in operation in Iran, acquired illegally through unofficial channels. Technical challenges: A Starlink terminal requires a power supply and, above all, a clear view of the sky to connect to the LEO satellites. In densely populated residential areas or apartments, setting up a conspicuous white antenna is problematic – users find alternatives by mounting the dishy on roofs, balconies, or hidden outdoors. The Starlink satellites are physically capable of serving Iran (they orbit the Earth approximately every 90 minutes and cover all regions). Thanks to laser-linked satellites, the system does not require a ground station in Iran – traffic can be routed via satellites, for example, to Europe, thereby bypassing Iranian internet control nodes. Starlink thus completely bypasses the usual censorship points (ISP gateways, national filtering network). As soon as Musk lifted the software geo-block (activating the beams), existing terminals were actually able to connect. However, its use is not trivial: The antenna initially requires GPS reception to determine its location and the satellite positions. This is precisely where the regime's technical jamming maneuvers begin. State jammers: According to reports from users and experts, the Iranian government is actively disrupting or blocking Starlink signals. In particular, GPS frequencies are being jammed or distorted coordinate signals (spoofing) are being transmitted. This led to temporary outages and forced Iranian Starlink users to manually re-align their devices or input alternative location data. Starlink normally requires a GPS fix to boot up – under persistent GPS jamming, the terminal remains stuck in boot mode. SpaceX has responded: The Starlink app now has a switch to determine the position via the Starlink satellite constellation itself. This method is slower, but a workaround for locally unreliable GPS. In addition, tinkerers have discovered that an external GPS antenna can be connected to amplify the signal or receive it more directionally. Such hardware modifications—e.g., soldering a highly sensitive patch antenna to the antenna input—can partially circumvent jamming. Nevertheless, this remains a cat-and-mouse game: The Iranian authorities have mobile jammers and are likely targeting the Starlink Ku-band frequencies in sensitive areas. However, they have not yet been able to completely block the service. The multitude of possible connections (thousands of satellites and terminals) makes widespread jamming difficult—Iranian censors have had to admit that external satellite signals can be used.

Source Code (@sc71801815) reported@joemosch @pstAsiatech Starlink's download speed: 25 - 180 Mbps. Upload speed: 5-20 Mbps. Chinese company Chang Guang is building a laser SATCOM network with a top data transmission speed of 100 Gbps. So it's sub-5G speed vs 6G speed.

navingcitizen (@navingcitizen) reportedCrypto works well until internet service is disrupted or Starlink and other Satellite providers are ordered to disconnect service in certain areas through geofencing. What use is crypto then? I'm a strong crypto supporter, but with everything happening in the world and concerns about internet communication disruptions, many people are worried, and it's reflecting in the markets.

judgmentcenter.com (@judgmentcenter) reportedStarlink is great. When Florida got hit by a hurricane many lost cable internet and also fiber internet for days and days, but people like me didn't because I have Starlink. - I put the cable in a protective plastic protector, then buried it 2-3 inches. - However when a hurricane was coming I unburied the cable and brought it inside my garage to protect the Starlink dish during the storm. - There is plenty of extra cable to do so. - As soon as the wind died died down I brought it back out and had my high speed internet back up within about 10 minutes.
