LOL...from the beginning of this grift, experts said Starlink was not scalable.

From what I see, 99% of the business community thinks all graphs linearly extrapolate.

Spoiler alert: AI learning is not scaling either.

Theyre still improving bandwidth with each launch as the newer hardware goes up, they haven't approached the flat line of 1 dish comes down for 1 dish going up which would be at the 5 year mark of no improved hardware or launch capabilities.

Once starship is operational, its 20x the bandwidth per launch, and cadence will increase so there's still tons of room to scale, and its not like those dishes wont improve either.
