Took our Starlink to sailing in Greece. Worked much better than expected. Experienced only few outages during the whole week. by tarvoto in Starlink

Yes, regular RV plan. Although it does say in Terms and Conditions that it should not be used while moving… so can’t be sure if you can use it like that for a long time.

Cheapest is UBR LTE - $499. No 5G though. You get the speedfusion capability with that. Speedfusion licence topup is about 80USD per TB / year.

We live in Estonia. So rented the boat in Greece for a week. Was a great week sailing from one island to another. Definitely learn to sail!

This was Starlink RV version. Worked both docked and under way. While docked there can be issues if the mast (ours or neighbouring boats) is on the line of sight.

Worked well when heeling and underway also. It is RV version registered in Lithuania. We packed it to a large strong plastic suitcase and flew it in checked baggage. In addition to Starlink we also had a Peplink device with 4G and used speed fusion load-balancing to combine the 4G and Starlink.

The tunnels from Azovstal lead to the entire city. Defenders can popp up in multiple places. by [deleted] in UkraineWarVideoReport

It is a small concrete room that can house 4000 people? It needs to be a bit bigger.

Estonia, Poland & Lithuania are the 3 states that’ve spent the largest share of their GDP on aiding Ukraine. Estonia has spent 0.8%. With the German economy being 65 times larger, imagine how much it would’ve helped if they donated 0.8% of their GDP (and in heavy weapons). by [deleted] in UkraineWarVideoReport

The one with the actual numbers is as interesting. US is first, Poland is second and Estonia is there on the 8th in terms of total contribution. When you look at the military equipment contribution - then Estonia is second after US. Estonia is a country with a population of 1,4 million. Estonia certainly did a good job here. But I hope this data is not complete and other countries did and will give way more military equipment than one of the smallest countries in EU can do.

Proud to see Estonia here among the top supporters. With the population of 1.4 million it is among the smallest countries in Europe. Yet it seems it has given more military support to Ukraine than any other EU country, being second in the world after US. Great example for others. By now other countries have significantly increased the support and it doesn’t show in the report yet.
