it does have motors...and it moves around on its own when it needs too...once its locked in it should not moved around much tho
i think its because it receives and transmits is why the power draw is higher than i would like...up to 140w...thats around 3.4k watt/hours per day
it does not draw that all the time but it can

solar is getting easier and cheaper and i think having the ability to support your own energy needs in this day in age is a must have
you need 4 basic things and then all the bits and bobs to hook it together
you need to generate electricity....maintain and convert the electricity your going to store..store that electricity and then use it...so that usually involves solar panels to generate...a charge controller to maintain and convert...batteries to store and a inverter to use said electricity

there is tons of videos and self help sites out there for getting started

Explanation

the dish has motors (3 axis i think.. ) and does change. ive seen it pointing to varying degrees north and east as well as change its azmith (may have those terms wrong)

anyway it does move, and there seems to be no real pattern. but as long as it works..

btw my starlink and the rest of the network stack are on a UPS.  and i highly recommend a UPS at LEAST for the startlink. turns out if you power it off and on 3 times in a row it resets to a blank password and anyone can then take over your starlink. as starlink didnt bother with a dedicated hard reset switch on the router. so 3 power cycles is how it done.  so of course  3 power glitches in short succession is faily common around here. doh..   gotta wonder sometimes. great tech but the occasional horrid implementation.

How much speed do you you get with it?

I have always wanted to move off grid but have been too scared to do it. I think you need to have mechanical skills which I do not possess and without them if any thing goes wrong with your power system then you become stuck. Does any one have any advice for someone who does not know much about electronics or power systems? I would probably go the solar panel route but not sure if they need any maintenance after setting them up or any thing I would need to consider before using them. I would probably only start partially relying on a off grid system before fully converting.

Explanation

What are you running it off? Solar power going into a battery bank and then running it directly off the battery pack into the satellite? Does it move or is it stationary? I cannot think why it would use as much energy as you say because if it does not have a motor it should just be pointing at the satellite and if that does not move it just sends the connection back. If it has a motor and follows the satellite I can see why it would use a lot of energy.

lovin me some starlink also....about the only complaint i would voice is that it is a little power hungry...being totally off grid atm i am finding my battery bank is getting strained trying to run it 24/7
turning off the auto snow melt feature helped some but running it and a mesh cuts into my energy budget pretty heavily
setup was indeed painless and the wifi is good...android app is somewhat kludgy but has useful info
all in all quite pleased so far

Explanation

starlink just became available in my area and im on it now. easy to self install (took about an hour including the roof mount and drilling holes for the cable run. kit comes with everything you need - 2 drill bits (a concrete/masonary bit for the through holes in the foundation, and one wood bit to drill mounting holes on the roof or siding and into studs/rafters, plus a couple kinds of sealers, templates, cable clips for running the line neatly, etc.

and 99.9% uptime so far. speeds are pretty good, faster than any inet ive had available around here by a LOOOOONG shot... although the previous bar was pretty low indeed.

tlrd: starlink rocks... blockchain cranks dling now. and just in time to grab all that bloat from nfts.... ah well progress is progress i guess.

Right...

Pensions and Fuck you status are mutually exclusive.

Surely you are lacking in thought creativity.

Yes.. I called you surely.

Well?  I wonder whether bitcoin adoption will increase by 2033? 

What are we starting with?

less than 1% of the world's population (1% is around 80 million)?  there are other kinds of ways of measuring adoption?  What about companies and countries getting into bitcoin?  Are they going to be purged in order to end up experiencing a net gain or net loss in the various bitcoin network effects?  and even from those who are already adopted are they sufficiently adopted, or low coiners?  Surely some are hoarders. such as Saylor who is overly represented in terms of the quantity of BTC that he holds and how much he might want to continue to get in the coming 10 years - or will he suffer net losses in the quantities of his coins respective to his current holdings which I believe is currently around 132,500 coins or something like that.  Anyone else trying to do a saylor (and being successful at it?).

Yes, we need to prepare for all scenarios, and to me it sounds as if you are cheerleading a $16k to $50k scenario as if it were a likely scenario.  I am personally prepared because i am going to continue to do whatever I do.. which is live my life and to spend in accordance to my budget which is already quite a bit higher than my cost of living and/or my anticipated cost of living... so personally, I am not really worried about a possible ranging scenario as you describe, even though it seems to be pretty low on the likelihood scale, at least from my current perspective.

By the way, a doubling of the value of an asset in 10 years brings us around the average of what the stock market had done historically, so if we are looking at bitcoin is it performing the same as the stock market?  underperforming it?  or over performing it?  What are our other allocations and/or cashflow sources?  Might some of our other investment and cashflow sources dry up?  sure it is possible, but maybe we would not create a base case around something that we are prepared for.. just in case more bearish scenarios might end up playing out.. in the next 10 years or whatever other period we choose to try to prognosticate (and prepare for).

"Pensions are a western world concept."

Yeah they are. And if you manage to get a good one you become somewhat subservient to it.

Thus no F.U. status unless you have the money to fully replace it and do not care if they (the man) eliminates it.
