On: Ask HN: What are the three most expensive tools/services that you use?

Due to temporary limitations as the constellation is still incomplete. Otherwise, it will be perfect for boats.

They'll also have to fix power consumption. Now the antenna uses 3-4X the daily power consumption of _everything_ on my cruising boat.

I don’t think power consumption on Dishy is coming down considering it’s throwing bits to low earth orbits constantly with microwaves.

I have enough solar and batteries on my boat to continually power the ground station, but if I didn’t I’d operate it only when actively using the Internet.

God I'd love to live on a boat and code remotely.

I watched the sv delos video and was like... how do I make this my life?

Also how I started! I highly recommend Sailing Zatara and Gone with the Wynns as well.
