@delta @daniel_bohrer @rixx This is hilarious 😂

I mean for me it is somewhat crazy that you move with 300 km / h and can still send packages around the globe. Just to soften the #DB bashing that could ensue from this thread.
How hard is this from an engineering point of view? I guess wifi on airplanes works too, but there I guess satellite connection is more reliable. Okay I really know very little about this. Another rabbit hole opening up.
@TheSecondVariation @maxheadroom @delta @daniel_bohrer @rixx 300 km/h is just too fast for 4G let alone 5G. That's why Deutsche Bahn cooperated with carriers to install special infrastructure (mostly repeaters and specialized antennas): https://newsroom.vodafone.de/vodafone-sorgt-fuer-besseren-mobilfunkempfang-in-den-ice-zuegen
@benedikt_lauenburg @TheSecondVariation @maxheadroom @delta @daniel_bohrer The amount of time spent at 300km/h on a German ICE inside Germany is *very* limited.
Notably the screenshot above was taken at somewhere between 0 and 10 km/h in Berlin. So, uh. I do not feel like I'm unfairly bashing anybody.
