@MarketPalmer_ This is a US mindset, but this very far from what will happen globally. In markets in Africa, for example, iMessage is hardly used at all.

Apple could start charging $3/month for iMessage and I don't think they'd lose a single customer.

People are clowning on you but ill just give you a straight answer: While gravity helps, food is moved through your body via muscle contractions. You know how you can hold a tube of toothpaste upside down and it wont come out, but by squeezing the tube you can force it out? Your body basically squeezes the things you swallow through your system. Also yes, the body does have gravity, all mass has gravity, but we're so small compared to the earth that the gravitational pull we exert on other matter is practically nothing compared to how much gravity the earth has. Gravity increases with mass, and 1 human compared to the entire earth's mass is an insane difference. Tldr: You swallow and digest food because the muscles and organs in your digestive track contract, forcing it through. Gravity plays a role, but only in making the process less taxing on your body.

@NASA Zoom out far enough and suddenly we’re not that different.

BOTTOMLINE | The Bank of Namibia has reported an N$892 million loss for the year 2025, the highest ever loss in the central bank’s history, and has declared a mere N$200 million. namibian.com.na/bank-of-namibi…

NASA pilot Victor Glover CLAPS back after being asked what it means to be the first black man to visit the moon: “It’s the story of humanity, not black history, not women’s history, but that it becomes human history.” “I also HOPE we are pushing the other direction that one day we don’t have to talk about these first. That one day, this is just—and listen to this—that this is the human history.”

BACK IN ACTION … The uprooted sacred ‘zimbuka’ tree at the Khomas Regional Council offices in Windhoek has been restored to its original position after deputy minister Dino Ballotti intervened to stop its removal. The tree had been uprooted on Wednesday (1 April), prompting concern from the nation and calls for its protection as a national symbol. Video: Dino Ballotti

Our editorial last year on Starlink: namibian.com.na/starlink-no-na… "[Minister] Theofelus appears to have ignored potential cost benefit information. It is fair to assume she simply relied on the regulation that 51% ownership should be Namibian (better still, BEE)".

On the Starlink license rejection by CRAN: 1. Our Minister of ICT indicated that one of the reasons are that the Starlink local registered company with BIPA doesn't have 51% Namibian ownership. That is true, but the act allows for her in her capacity as Minister of ICT to exempt the entity from this requirement - I'd love the media to ask her, why she did not do that. 2. Again according to the Minister of ICT, Starlink is not affordable (Terminal cost is about 6k and monthly charge is about 1k per month) so Starlink won't solve the digital devide. If this was in fact true, why was OneWeb's products approved in the country that is so expensive that no one can afford it? Refer to oblixx.com/services as an example of these product pricing. My ISP at home charges 3k per month for a 50mb line. Is that affordable then? I think Namibians do not need the government to tell us what we can and can't afford. If the solution is available, people in Namibia can decide for themselves. It's absolutely no reason to reject the license and shouldn't be mentioned as such. 3. They said that all ISPs need to pass 6 things, of which Starlink didn't pass 3. One of which is the Namibian ownership requirement - They haven't provided the other 2 reasons (I did ask for this info from CRAN - but no response received yet). Two links to reference: starlink.com/.../6a4afd37-6…... And here is Starlink's response to CRAN regarding their concerns: starlink.com/.../Starlink%2…
