  • Good. This should be a priority nationwide to restore the native names that were replaced by anglicized versions as the land was stolen. Ideally the land would be restored as well, but we know that’s not gonna happen. Restoring the name requires minimum effort.

    While we’re at it, let’s remove references to Confederate names, they were traitors to the nation and they lost. Most of us have underwear that has lasted longer than the Confederacy. They don’t deserve to be honored and remembered with monuments and locations named for them.












  • And ocean communication.

    It’s amazingly clear none of these people have ever tried to use any of the existing Geostationary satellite data networks.

    They are slow as shit. Not just by modern standards, by any standards. HughesNet is one of the remaining satellite Internet providers.

    $50/mo gives you 50Mbps speeds, 100GB of “Priority Data”, whatever the fuck that is (probably your 50Mbps data, then it slows). And that price is only for a year, then it is $75/mo. They also love to tout a 30ms latency somehow, but that’s just a damned lie. Latency for a Geostationary satellite is around 500ms, or roughly the speed of light because that’s physics. So I have no idea where they think they’re getting 30ms, unless that’s only the additional latency they’re claiming AFTER it bounces off the satellite and reaches the ground to be routed to the internet on their end.



  • 3 could be a minimum. And the issues won’t be similar, they’ll be just as random as anything else coming in. And their system to actually look up info and make changes will likely only work on one account at a time. It’s possible, but unlikely that the system could use tabs to switch between accounts for chats. That would have required AT&T to actually do something to make the agents job easier, and would cost money to develop.
