Starlink gets quarterly dynamic pricing, which can add a 10 to 20% increase on a bill, or lower it. New policy seems to be appearing in Kansas and Missouri. pcmag.com/news/starlink-test…

T-Mobile comes out against satellite D2D in the 2496-2690 MHz band. Argues downlink interference from satellites could cause a cell site to lose up to 96% of its uplink coverage area and reduce uplink speeds for affected customers by 88% to 99%.

SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell once again floated the idea of using its existing broadband network to help deploy Starlink Mobile in the US and compete with the big three carriers. pcmag.com/news/starlink-migh…

Let’s set the record straight: @lcfr_hax was the first to discover php2shell and develop a working exploit. See his August 5 tweet: nitter.cf/lcfr_hax/status/208503…
His work convinced the PHP Foundation to invest in fixing this entire bug class. He then worked around the clock to review, test, and retest the patches.

We dropped by the NVIDIA RTX SPARK Launch Celebration at Best Buy in San Francisco today. 💻🎉
Hands-on laptop demos showed off what this new hardware can actually do, local founders shared insights during fireside chats, and Jensen even appeared remotely.
We saw the very first customer purchasing an RTX Spark laptop right on the sales floor. A few specific models are available on shelves today for immediate purchase, while preorders have officially opened up for the remainder of the lineup.
Read our complete RTX Spark laptop launch coverage on PCMag.

SpaceX announces the ambitious goal after acquiring a slice of 800MHz radio spectrum from Grain Management to bulk up Starlink Mobile. pcmag.com/news/spacex-confir…
Michael Kan retweeted
Well that didn’t take long! Starlink today announced it purchased 14 MHz in the 800 MHz band from Grain Management. No pricetag on that transaction, but Dish was supposed to buy that spectrum from T-Mobile for around $3.6 billion a few years ago.
