    Starlink has updated their mobile app with a new feature aimed at
    customers using their dish while in-motion. You can now adjust the
    tilt/angle of your dish. If you have a motorized dish mounted on your vehicle’s roof, you’ll be able to keep it at a flat angle while you
    are driving. This helps prevent wear and tear on the motors, and makes in-motion performance more consistent.

    The “Tilt” setting is only available for actuated (motorized) Starlink dishes.
    [Gen 1 and Gen 2]
    Also, it will only appear in the app if you are on one of the Mobile
    or Mobile Priority service plans. Tilt is not available for Standard/Residential customers. ---------------------------------------------------------- https://www.starlinkhardware.com/starlink-adds-tilt-setting-to-app-for-in-motion-use/

    I don't need no stinking mobile Starlink. It's unsafe to use while I'm
    driving. If I want to be distracted while driving my cell phone works
    well for that. I know for you hicks in the sticks stationary Starlink is
    a blessing but it's still too expensive for me... as long as I have
    other options.

    I see they put a few more satellites into orbit a couple of days ago. Do
    more satellites mean cheaper or more expensive service?

    It's not for you - it's for your navigator or political consultant in
    the copilot seat, or for the rug rats in the back.

    I know for you hicks in the sticks stationary Starlink
    is a blessing but it's still too expensive for me... as long as I have

    Hicks in the sticks? damn.

    I see they put a few more satellites into orbit a couple of days ago.

    They're putting up more sats than the dumbasses' spaghetti.

    Do more satellites mean cheaper or more expensive service?

    Probably more.
