Me waking up 2 hours early because I had something so important I set an alarm

Unlike traditional satellite internet, which uses geostationary satellites that cover a large area but are necessarily high above the earth and can result in latencies of a second or more, starlink and the like use a mesh of moving Low Earth Orbit satellites. They’re much closer to the ground and as a result cover a smaller area but have substantially lower latency (in the 10s of ms).

It’s still no fibre optic connection, but it’s way better than your average DSL or copper cable internet. Its biggest advantage is that it works outside of big urban areas, though.

You see, it's actually about ethics in games journalism.

That'll teach us to send them all that fentanyl or whatever

Every time she says she didn't sleep well, I apologise for snoring just in case.

Every time I'm awake in the night and she's snoring, I just try and ignore it.

Bear in mind that they're not all 80, though. The youngest boomers are 61, and it's not a stretch that they waited until early 30s to have kids, nor that their kids are waiting (or in fact that they chose not to have kids).

But it just goes to show that n=1 is a terrible sample size.

Agreed.

Eh, my mum is an older boomer, and my daughter is mid-Z... I could easily see a younger boomer having an alpha grandkid.

Edit: from Wikipedia Most millennials are the children of baby boomers and older members of Generation X, and are often the parents of members of Generation Alpha.
