It’s almost as if by building the information superhighway, with unimpeded access to elsewhere, without being regularly stuck on a single slow connection that’s endlessly loading, waiting, that a problem in getting to where you want to go has been solved?

Starlink was on the cusp of single-handedly solving the broadband issue for Puna, but Hawaii Telcom, funded with similar FCC grants, beat them to the punch.  Now they get most of the monthly subscriber fees.

We can imagine a future where SpaceX (or whoever) will be on the cusp of solving the single road issue and the local good ole boys network will find a way to beat them to the finish line.

Maybe we don't need flying cars.  They are already using drones to deliver to homes in some markets.  Eventually the range issues will be worked out and there will be less trips to get "stuff".  The "stuff" will drop from the sky.  Maybe in the near future our catchment tanks will have a second story for catching parcels.  The big round "landing pads" certainly would be easy for an AI pilot to find.
