gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2026-03-16 11:55:51

The skies may no longer be free for the space industry. Rocket companies like SpaceX and United Launch Alliance (ULA) may soon be required to pay a fee to support FAA oversight and airspace coordination, part of a broader effort to keep up with the growing launch industry. A budget reconciliation bill released by Senator Ted Cruz last week proposes that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) begin charging licensing fees to rocket companies starting next year. The collected fees would go int

In Brief Elon Musk’s startup xAI is trying to raise a $4.3 billion equity investment, according to a report from Bloomberg. This equity funding would be in addition to the $5 billion that Musk is allegedly trying to raise in debt funding for the combined entity of X and xAI. The company appears to be raising money again after landing a $6 billion cash infusion in December, because it has already spent much of its money. xAI makes Grok, the AI chatbot that’s embedded inside the social network

In its continued “Best Phones Forever” series, Google pokes a bit of fun at how many iOS 26 features are “inspired” by Pixel, while also teasing the Pixel 10. The “Best Phones Forever” series has been going for a while at this point, with Google using the series to point out how iPhone and Pixel co-exist, and occasionally throwing little jabs at the iPhone. Most recently, the “Responding to the Rumors” episode poked fun at a handful of iPhone features that Pixel had first. “Total coincidence.”

When returning the car, I told the Sixt representative that I had linked my BMW ID — they assured me that the vehicle would be reset.

Senate GOP bill spares nuclear and geothermal energy while hammering wind and solar

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2026-03-16 16:21:35

One month after the House passed its version of a reconciliation bill, Senate Republicans released their take on the budget bill Monday night. The Senate Finance Committee’s language would take a sledgehammer to some parts of the renewable-friendly Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) while sparing others. Solar, wind, and hydrogen bear the brunt of the impact. On the other side of the ledger, geothermal, nuclear, hydropower, and long-duration energy storage emerge relatively unscathed. Carbon captur
