Starlink and Leo disallow military use on their consumer services/constellations for many reasons - one being they do not want them declared military targets and attacked by China’s or Russia’s hunter/killer sats. Starshield and Leo’s ALG are more resilient and defensible and secure. Will this new Ukrainian satellite fleet be more like ALG and Starshield than the consumer sats?

Unsurprising.

I’m convinced many of the highly energetic opposition movements is foreign-born. Particularly those that are relatively spontaneous and nonsensically partisan.

Newsom has been “shoring up” California utility companies with customer’s money for years. They are big Newsom/party donors.

“You can also reach out to your local County Democratic Party, Indivisible Chapter, or other activist group and request they add uncapping the U.S. House of Representatives as an officially endorsed policy”

I’m unfamiliar with this idea. I read the entire post. When I got to the above quote I am unsure why the suggestion is to reach out to only a Democrat Party rep. Is this idea not also beneficial/desirable for the Republican Party?

Please do more research. They are most decidedly not “simply too old”. They have been “refreshed” many times over - from engines, to flight electronics, to targeting and comms systems, to airframe structures, to coffeemaker automation.

Honestly only read enough of that to get the gist, but having been through many iterations of this over a couple decades of living a life in SV tech - you carry on. Each time you take away (hopefully) some improved sensitivity to the flags and signs that help guide your future decisions. That said, it’s also the nature of a fast moving industry to rapidly ideate-float-fund-fold.

Isn’t that just about the average wage for a degreed finance middling in NYC?
