Starlink to be connected to iPhones?

^^^they carry these at most Walmart's nowadays^^^^

did anyone actually read the press release?

its not exactly starlink. its 'you can get emergency service connection through starlink using tmobile satellites if your normal connection isnt available'. so if you cant connect to a tmobile satellite you dont get shit.

and as for the iphone 18 pro = starlink narrative, again its not the ability to get internet access anywhere on earth via starlink, which one would assume it is.

oh no no no.

its 'emergency services' will operate through starlink. so if you need to call 9/11, you can access that service if youre in range of a starlink satellite.

no one is talking about 'internet access over starlink'. theres murmurs about allowing texts circa 2027/2028. but the implied message here is oh you can just use your iphone like its a starlink satellite dish and lmao nooooooo you cant and no ones working on it currently.

this whole thread is an intellectual crime scene.

The purpose of this thread was to be a general catch all about Starlink overall and the iPhone integration. But then Druff changed the thread title on me, so I dont know now.

Here is my take- I own and am happy with T-Mobile stock and tomorrow buying Tesla stock, so I see both companies working together as smart investment. I was worried that Tesla is going to crash due to car sales and politics, but then remembered that Starlink and Space X are a major portion of Tesla, so I will be happy holding their stock for the long run.

you are a dense fool and shouldn't be allowed to post here as much as you do.


do you ever know what you post about or just go with a stream-of-thought process in deciding what to vomit on our screens?


please let me see your stock account, after today's NFL i need a laugh.


fool, tsla and space x have nothing to do with each other. they are separate companies, there are only limited ways to own space-x now, all of which exceed your ability.


i should have waited until tomorrow afternoon to have posted this so you could have bought like the buffoon you are.


stick with firetrucks and flashlights.


in the alternative, please consider


:noose

Tellafriend has a Rand Paul mural painted on the side of his barn.

On social issues he makes Trump’s Steven Miller sound like Ghandi.

The libtard and pedo pejorative is so weak sauce.
