“New broadband project to serve rural south Georgia” Possible internet in 4-5 years per the article.
I cannot wait that long so:
I paid a deposit to be on the Starlink satellite internet waiting list. Hopefully Georgia will be covered by the end of this year, probably sooner. Folks in western NC are already receiving the kits.
Very easy to set up and instantly have very fast speeds. The dish self aims toward an appropriate satellite. It is really is a plug-in system.
$500 for the satellite kit and then $99 per month with no data caps.
“Blessed are the young, for they shall inherit the national debt.” Herbert Hoover said this, at the Nebraska Republican Conference, January 16,1936. In 1936, the national debt was $33.7 billion. The national debt today is $28.2 trillion. This is 855 times the debt in 1932.
Quote of the week from Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) on Republican opposition to the bill to investigate the Capitol riot of January 6:
“We’ve got to get to the bottom of this shit. Jesus. It’s a nonpartisan investigation of what happened. And if it’s because they’re afraid of Trump then they need to get out of office. It’s bullshit. You make tough decisions in this office or you shouldn’t be here.”
Preach it, Senator.
I miss the days of decorum in public office. Senators should not use a vulgar word for excrement in public.
I agree in principle but ‘the normally amiable’ Tester is clearly exasperated.
Here’s the link I failed to include earlier.
