Private helicopter pilot not allowed to fly rescues in Helene disaster zone

One example:

There are other groups–not necessarily related to SpaceX–that are also donating dishes. And you probably aren’t going to like this example, but here’s another one:

And yes, people not getting donated dishes are “only” getting free service for the month.

Imagine being a journalist. And imagine being such an imbecile that you’re motivated to write stories like: Recipients of FOOD DONATIONS were SHOCKED to discover that they need a $400 STOVE just to cook the food!

Maybe an ice pick to the frontal lobe would help me understand their reasoning.

Former NASCAR star Greg Biffle says …” on Oct 1, and since then- 9 days later, about a dozen news sites have said Musk is charging for them. Maybe on OCT 1, that former racecar driver believed that. But it didnt happen. Or if it did, somehow, dozens of major news networks somehow missed it and said the exact opposite thing occurred.

Yeah, a trump news cite- no thanks. I do not buy into MAGA lies and propaganda.

Even if some dishes are donated- and I have no doubt a few have been- where does it say those people will get free starlink after the first month?

You still don’t understand the difference between free service for everyone and donated dishes for some. It’s truly incomprehensible to me that you don’t get this.

Here is Greg Biffle with the first pallet of donated dishes:

Uh, they don’t? No one ever said they did.

Starlink (just today) extended the free service until the end of the year:

I eagerly anticipate a new round of articles from dipshit journalists that have somehow made it to adulthood not understanding that a satellite connection requires a receiver of some kind. In related news, free gas requires a car, and free canned food requires a can opener.

You can open cans without a can opener. :wink:

So 2+ months free free.

Maybe. It could also mean that they didn’t have accurate locations for where they were supposed to make their deliveries. The quote says, after all, that the issue was resolved by “having the right information”. In other words, the deliveries needed to be coordinated.
