Well, now that we all collectively solved that problem, you gotta go and buy a boat.

Pulling them out of my ass, mostly. Like, the people I know in the field don't seem overly worried, but my own opinion mostly comes from a general awareness that stuff in LEO comes down eventually, and that for the orbit the Starlink Stuff is on, that would probably mean a few years max.
Not my field, and if I actually research it, I might find I'm wrong.
I still maintain that even a complete loss of launch and orbital capability, while of course a great and horrible disaster, wouldn't doom us much more than our current course as a species already is.
As someone guessed above - Stranded: Alien Dawn
Yup, Stranded: Alien Dawn.
Kinda. It's still all very silly and stupid, but the 747-8 is a few metres longer, and generally more modern than the 747-200b the current VC25A are based on.
Earlier this year, I got a game I liked on steam. Pretty much 3d Rimworld. After playing for 20 hours over a few weeks, I sporadically started getting errors about me having "no hardware activations" left for the game, and how I should wait 24 hours. I have never installed it on any other machine.
It is so very silly that a pirated copy would be the more seamless experience.
Oh, I mean, it would be bad, even if it "just" meant no/unsafe launches and no LEO for X months/years. I just kinda feels it pales compared to the climate related problems coming generations are likely to face.
Just me. Since I took that measurement, I changed my habits. I download fewer games, I stream a lot more stuff locally, but I also added a server to my network that does a lot of stuff, including relatively high bitrate video streaming to ten users, so it's probably even more these days.
Look into a low-power server for your boat, try to host as much of you can locally. I'm pretty sure you could fill mot entertainment needs that way, and 'top up' your content via terrestrial Internet when you resupply.
Then it kinda depends on what you need for work. Upload/download code snippets? Video conferencing all day every day? There's like a big span for the bandwidth you might need.
They are low enough that it'd probably fix itself over time. It'd be a big problem, but I feel comming generations have bigger ones.
Also in Europe (Germany). A cap to home Internet is kinda crazy to me. I don't measure my usage, but when I did, I usually used about 2-3tb per month.
I have 1gbps down/300mbps up for 50€. Price is shit compared to other parts of Europe, but I can live with it.
Sure, but you seem to also present an opinion, based on sentiment from your friends. Since we both seem to lazy to actually figure it out properly, I feel we're at an impasse.
