minus-squareAlexisFRlinkfedilinkEnglish2•1 year agoAh yes, sattelite SMS messaging, just as we all asked for!
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish12•1 year agoIt could prove extremely useful in an emergency
minus-square@MrFagtron9000linkEnglish7•1 year agoWhy would you not be super excited for this? This literally extends coverage to the entire world.

When you’re hiking that trail in the middle of nowhere and you slip and break your leg you can just point your phone to the sky and get help.
