When I decided to get Starlink for our motorhome it was around 57 Euros a month for unlimited. By the time we got Starlink it jumped to 72. Then they added some "spanish taxes" and went up to 82. Now I got an email saying they just made it 89. All of these happened in the past few months.
WTF.
But so predictable unfortunately...
It sucks because there is no reliable unlimited internet solution cross-EU. I have paused Starlink for this month and I need to seriously consider what we will do. 90 Euros a month for the internet is crazy.
They really trap you because you buy the dish for a lot of money and that dish can ONLY be used with Starlink. Not that there is any other option for satellite internet. So now if you give up on the subscription, you are left with a fucking 400 Euros dish that is basically ewaste.
Thank you Elhon for being such an "innovator".

Reclaiming Pedagogy in a Platformed World – A Manifesto
Have educational platforms begun to shape teaching more than pedagogy itself?
In my latest post, I explore how Learning Management Systems and platformed environments quietly configure what is possible in teaching and learning. Rather than rejecting technology, I argue for reclaiming pedagogical space within it – prioritising care, agency, and purpose over system logic.
Read the full manifesto:

#CriticalPedagogy #DigitalEducation #PlatformedLearning #OnlineTeaching #InstructionalDesign #EdTech
A surreal, retro-futuristic landscape showing a lone figure facing a glowing portal amidst digital ruins, symbolising resistance, reflection, and reimagining in a platform-dominated world.
Normaliter had ik dat al gedaan, maar ik zit met rottige persoonlijke omstandigheden waarvoor ik al mijn energie en tijd nodig heb, en het schrijven van bovenstaande post eigenlijk al veel te veel was.
Dus nee, sorry.
Misschien ga ik achteraf nog, als dat niet te laat is, maar geen idee hoe lang dit nog duurt.
Als je zelf zou willen gaan zou dat super tof zijn!
@TROM I noticed that social.trom.tf/profile/alastor gives Error code: 500 Internal Server Error.
Same for profile/alastor/conversations. Others like /photos or /media work fine
Not a big deal though :)
1st Trom Social Post.
Hey,
I'm actually on the Trom Peertube and wanted to join the Friendica too! I'm Alesha. I'm happy to be here. I landed here to start over. I cut off my past, and 99% of them are on Facebook and Instagram. And Facebook locked me out for 8 months, so it was a sign to look for alternatives lol. Landed here to start over on social media, friendships, everything. Cheers!
Hmmm.... I had this long text written, and I switched screens to copy an Alt text to add. I switched back... And the whole post was gone! Apparently, you can't "just" leave the screen of a compose message open in Raccoon....
Unfortunately, I don't really have the spoons to type it all again now. 😔 Which is quite a bummer...
If I will feel better later today, or maybe the upcoming night, I will try to re-write it and see what I can make of it then.
I'll just add the image I tried to add, with the alt text that I was having made. Ugh, why did the app not save it as a draft? 😔
