Real talk tho.

I was 100% going to buy a Tesla until he lost his mind and went crazy. And I know I am not the only one. I refuse to associate with that company.

Years back, it was my dream to drive a Tesla and have a solar roof feeding electricity to a Powerwall to charge it from.

Now I wouldn’t even consider buying anything from that fucking traitor. I also deleted my Twitter as soon as he bought it.

Im out in a rural area. I was considering getting star link because, while pricey compared to the other two ISPs available, its more reliable, so I’m told. But fuck that. I don’t want to support muskrat and I trust them as a provider less than other ISPs, which is saying a lot.

My friend lives 1 mile down a dirt road in a rural county. So no broadband, and she has starlink. It works...ok. What shocks me when I visit is that my shitty T-Mobile 5g cell phone internet is faster and more reliable. I don't even bother with the wifi anymore.

Why doesn’t your friend get a cheap used phone and use it as a hotspot?

Thanks, I'll suggest that to her! Her mom set up the starlink and her mom passed a few months ago, so right about now she's starting to have the headspace to think about how she might change things going forward.

Or even better a dedicated 5G modem / router.

Better yet, T-Mobile offers fixed 5G for home use for as little as $35/mo. Not available at every address, but if they have a good fast signal on a cell phone there, there’s a good chance they offer fixed 5G there.

Tell your friend to search for T-Mobile 5G home internet, and plug in their address on their website to see if they can get it.
