A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Did I even mention what stayed I was at in this thread?
No, but I know what state I'm in. You're not in Alaska or Texas or you wouldn't be making these fantastic claims, so by process of elimination, you do not live in a larger state than I.
Then my next question would be why you think a states size has anything to do with getting good 5g coverage and speeds?
Yeah, why would I engage with that sort of disingenuous nonsense. We're talking about cell coverage. Area matters. Period. Full statewide 5G coverage may be possible in a tiny state, but it starts to get bad and then abysmal as states become larger and are mostly rural.
Why do you possibly think that a states size has anything to do with where they place cell towers? Cities barely even care about what state they sit in. Hell, Kansas city is in two states. Cell towers are just put in populated areas. Not populated states.
