Elon Musk's Neuralink filed as 'disadvantaged business' before being valued at $9 billion

cnbc.com Lora Kolodny 2025-07-21 03:07:50

Elon Musk's health tech company Neuralink labeled itself a "small disadvantaged business" in a federal filing with the U.S. Small Business Administration, shortly before a financing round valued the company at $9 billion. Neuralink is developing a brain-computer interface (BCI) system, with an initial aim to help people with severe paralysis regain some independence. BCI technology broadly can translate a person's brain signals into commands that allow them to manipulate external technologies j

Zelda’s new live-action stars could be around for a long time

theverge.com Jay Peters 2025-07-24 11:30:50

Nintendo just announced the two leads of its live-action Legend of Zelda film, and unlike the celebrity-packed Mario movie cast, Zelda will star two young, lesser-known actors: Bo Bragason as Zelda and Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link. You may not have heard of them, but there’s a good chance they’re going to be a part of the franchise for a while. Choosing stars who are in their teens (Ainsworth) and early 20s (Bragason) makes a lot of sense. In the games, even the “older” Links and Zeldas are

Starlink vs. T-Mobile 5G Home Internet: Clash of the Broadband Disruptors

So, what makes Starlink and T-Mobile 5G Home Internet the biggest names in rural broadband? One word: Availability. Both providers offer extensive wireless coverage in places where fiber and cable can't reach, making them a top option for rural communities. While Starlink has effectively revolutionized satellite internet with its fleet of low Earth orbit satellites, and has reportedly doubled its speeds compared to two years ago, we would still recommend T-Mobile 5G Home Internet.

Starlink Doubled Its Speed In 2 Years. It Still Doesn’t Meet the FCC’s Definition of Broadband

Starlink is nearly twice as fast as it was two years ago, according to a new report from the speed test site Ookla. (Disclosure: Ookla is owned by the same parent company as CNET, Ziff Davis.) Median download speeds from the satellite internet provider have steadily ticked up over the past few years, going from 53.95 megabits per second in 2022 to 104.71Mbps today.

The satellite internet space has only gotten more competitive in recent years, thanks to the rise of Starlink. Now that Amazon's Project Kuiper has successfully launched LEO satellites to kick off its own service, we only expect the conversation to grow from here. Despite the popularity of Starlink and the growing power of its 7,000 satellites, satellite internet is generally considered a last resort for home internet, due to slower-than-average speeds and the steep costs of equipment.
