Also, the timing is different.
At 1.8 ms, a satellite's delay is small in absolute terms, but it's about 270x a 2 km tower's, and it's why satellite networks need extra timing compensation.
TDD guard periods become really important.
Why does Starlink want towers?
A terrestrial tower 2 km away at 850 MHz loses about 97 dB. The satellite path is still about 49 d worse, or 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 2 × 2 × 2, roughly 80,000x more loss.

You're not supposed to afford it. It's an entire industry designed to vacuum up every last dime of boomer wealth before they slip their mortal coils. For thousands of years, you were supposed to die at home surrounded by your loved ones.
Instead the boomers destroyed a high trust society to maximize a number on a graph making it somehow make sense to liquidate your estate so a Haitian care worker can feed you seed oil slop and then smother you in your sleep after your retirement balance hits $0.

Collusion underway to buy governments time.
We are going to see an influx of non-expert RF experts opining on harmonics, RSRQ, SINR, TDD and FDD.
It will be a wild ride.

Replying to @Cernovich
Homes should be for families who live in them. If the tax code rewards absentee Airbnb investors over local buyers, why are we surprised young couples can’t afford a house?

Absentee AirBnB hosts drive up local housing. The short term rental (STR) giveaway in the tax code had terrible efforts on home prices.
Bro, it's called a Roth IRA and it's so sick.
You just live broke for 40 years, then one day you wake up and half your body doesn't work anymore, but you get to open your phone and see a big number.
And the best part? It's all tax free.

The most damning chart in America. The stock market and GDP mean absolutely nothing if young men can't buy a home and get married.
BREAKING: Microsoft, $MSFT, is offering buyouts to 60,000 workers as part of the company’s efforts to cut costs amid AI adoption, per Bloomberg.
Personnel on select teams in the US, Canada, India, and the UK at a vice president level and below will be eligible.
This reflects ~27% of Microsoft's total workforce.

You’re laughing? I’m going to make $100 less per month on the 30 properties I own through 3 layers of shell companies so I can evade taxes and you’re laughing?

Sorry folks, we have a confirmed PHP compromise with post-exploit activity. Still not the widespread outbreak we all braced for, but it’s actively exploited in the wild. Updated threat brief:

Following similar from T-Mobile, @AjitPai tells @BrendanCarrFCC that D2D "should not be introduced into 5G time-division duplex 'workhorse' bands, including the 2.5 GHz and 3.45 GHz bands, given the well-recognized synchronization and interference risks."

‼️ Palo Alto firewall VMs and Citrix NetScaler run without ASLR, a basic memory defence, Kevin Beaumont says.
He warns that makes the PHP2Shell flaws trivial to exploit through internet-facing management interfaces.
Neither has a patch out. Citrix promises one on 27 October.

T-Mobile comes out against satellite D2D in the 2496-2690 MHz band. Argues downlink interference from satellites could cause a cell site to lose up to 96% of its uplink coverage area and reduce uplink speeds for affected customers by 88% to 99%.
