  • That’s not how pricing works. They already have the price they think makes them the most money. Raising prices means losing customers to competition, netting a loss.

    So they would just lose 1000 customers and not raise the price because that would mean an even higher loss.

    It’s different, of course when including that all ISPs would be hit with this. One can only speculate what will happen. All those pirates will want alternative ISPs, probably paying extra for privacy. The rest will stay in a dying market where competition for the remaining customers would be fierce, probably with lower prices.

    That was always the joke but some people prefer in-joles (i.e. already knowing they have identical faces) over being inclusive and showing the joke at face value. I can appreciate both, depending on finesse.

    This joke doesn’t really have any finesse so my vote is for inclusivity.

    I’m no astrologer but from what I’ve learned, we also need to look at the color to glassify stars into categories. It varies a bit though in each category so it’s a blunt tool.

    Then there are other objects like gas clouds and even galaxies. For those, we have no idea of the density distribution, so radial size gives us even less info.
