Amazon’s Project Kuiper strikes its first satellite internet deal with an airline

Amazon’s satellite internet service, Project Kuiper, will partner with JetBlue to provide in-flight Wi-Fi starting in 2027. It’s Project Kuiper’s first deal with an airline as it aims to keep up with the SpaceX-owned Starlink, which has already snagged satellite internet agreements with United Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines, Air France, and several oth

JetBlue to boost in-flight Wi-Fi with Amazon Project Kuiper internet deal

JetBlue Airways plans to install Amazon 's Project Kuiper on some of its airplanes to bolster in-flight Wi-Fi, the companies announced Thursday, in a vote of confidence for the nascent internet satellite service. The technology will be added to about a quarter of the airline's fleet, with the rollout beginning in 2027 and expected to be complete in 2028, JetBlue President Marty St. George said on a call with reporters. The team-up is a significant win for Amazon, which has been working to buil

Inverting the Xorshift128 random number generator

CVE-2025-7783 is a very recent vulnerability affecting a lot of applications in the Node.js ecosystem including those which use axios or the deprecated request library. In all honesty, this vulnerability is really an edge case that is extremely unlikely to be exploited: it is dependent upon a number of events that are not normally present. One of those events is the attacker having access to five consecutive outputs of JavaScript Math.random( ) , which allows the attacker to predict future outpu

Madrid’s Orbital Paradigm aims to prove a cheaper path to orbital reentry

Francesco Cacciatore is a self-proclaimed skeptic. Yet after spending two decades in the European aerospace industry and hitting, as he put it, a “crisis,” he made an undeniably optimistic bet: he started a space company. “You ask yourself, ‘What am I doing?’” he said in a recent interview. “I got offered some interesting opportunities, but then I kind of collapsed and realized I wanted to try and build something myself.” That something turned out to be one of the most challenging problems in

‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Stars Tease Doom and Character Development

As Avengers: Doomsday continues production, its actors are building up hype for the superhero team’s next big outing. In a recent Variety cover story, returning Gambit Channing Tatum said his turn as the card-dealing hero will be easier on the ears, dialect-wise. If you thought it was funny not being able to understand a lick of Tatum’s Cajun accent, he said the Russo brothers want him to be “funny, but they don’t want to go full Deadpool [& Wolverine]. They want to keep the drama and keep it t

How to unlock the Pixel 10 Pro’s hidden 12-bit video capabilities

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR The Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL can shoot in 12-bit 4K video with dedicated third-party apps. The high bit depth is possible thanks to Samsung’s Smart-ISO Pro technology within the image sensor. The Pixel 10 and Pixel Camera app are still capped at 10-bit video capture. The new Google Pixel 10 series already sports some impressive new photo and video capabilities, but it appears that the Pro models are capable of even more than Google advertises.

Bitcoin bucks stock market downtrend but lags gold rally

The moves came amid a sell-off in stocks and a jump in bond yields, which were triggered by concerns — which first emerged late on Friday ahead of the extended holiday weekend — on the legality of President Donald Trump's global tariffs and the prospect that the U.S. may have to repay money already received . The price of so-called digital gold rose as much as 2% to reclaim the $111,000 level after dropping over the weekend to a low last seen in July. Spot gold hovered around $3,500 after surpa

Brokewell Android malware delivered through fake TradingView ads

Cybercriminals are abusing Meta’s advertising platforms with fake offers of a free TradingView Premium app that spreads the Brokewell malware for Android. The campaign targets cryptocurrency assets and has been running since at least July 22nd through an estimated 75 localized ads. Brokewell has been around since early 2024 and features a broad set of capabilities that include stealing sensitive data, remote monitoring and control of the compromised device.

Bitwig Studio 6 details revealed, and editing gets a big boost

We get it. After years of DAWs leapfrogging in similar directions, the new generation of music tools made it easier to start projects, get inspiration, and improvise. But sometimes they played catchup on editing and automation. Bitwig Studio 6’s details are here, and it feels like editing automation, clips, and more are looking as fresh as those other tools, all in an updated UI. The beta is out now. Beta testing is free now if you’re ready to give this a look. You’ll need an active Upgrade Pla

How Does Timecode Vinyl Actually Work? (Pt. 3) Since its release in 2011, the Traktor Control Vinyl MK2 has sparked curiosity among digital DJs and audio developers alike. Its timecode format stands apart from Serato’s, which we explored in the previous posts. With the MK2 system, Native Instruments introduced a more advanced timecode that boosts resolution and accuracy by applying advanced cryptographic techniques. In this post, we’ll break down how it works at a basic level and how Mixxx is

Eric Trump Claims His Company Is Mining ‘3% of the World’s Bitcoin Every Single Day’

Eric Trump, the third child of President Donald Trump, showed up in Hong Kong this week to hawk his latest crypto venture and, according to him, it’s going to the moon. Trump spoke at Hong Kong’s Bitcoin Asia 2025 conference, the first stop in a planned series of crypto events across Asia featuring various Trump family members. At the conference, Trump declared that his family “loves” the crypto community and downplayed concerns about the president’s conflicts of interest with the industry. He

Probability of typing a wrong Bitcoin address

I heard someone say that Bitcoin is dangerous because you could easily make a typo when entering an address, sending money to the wrong person, and have no recourse. There are dangers associated with Bitcoin, such as losing a private key, but address typos are not a major concern. Checksums There are several kinds of Bitcoin addresses. Each is at least 20 bytes (160 bits) long, with at least 4 bytes (32 bits) of checksum. The chances of a typo resulting in a valid checksum are about 1 in 232.

Speed-coding for the 6502 – a simple example

Usually clocked at 1MHz, with no hardware support for multiplication or division, and limited support for bit shifting, it is often important to take a step back from an algorithm in order to make it do the same thing, hundreds of times faster. Note: this article doesn’t describe any technological breakthrough or extremely clever new way of doing things. It’s just a real-life example using a little part of an algorithm I made, and where at first, I stopped at step 2 instead of going all the way

Satellite Companies Like SpaceX Are Ignoring Astronomers’ Calls to Save the Night Sky

There are more than 12,000 active satellites circling Earth at the moment, a growing figure that has nearly doubled in less than three years. This recent boom in the satellite industry has been a major headache for astronomers, with bright satellites appearing as streaks in telescope images of the universe and tarnishing views of the night skies. A new paper reveals that satellite constellations are brighter than the recommended limits set forth by astronomers, with only one company adhering to

How Is AI Used In Space? This Wild Look Into a Data Center Plan Has Clues

The world runs on data. As humanity’s information gets increasingly digitized and artificial intelligence creeps its way into every aspect of life, data centers become more and more important. But that data comes with a catch: the servers in these data centers have monstrous energy demands that eat up natural resources like water, and that puts a significant burden on local communities where data centers are located. Some companies think they’ve found the solution to this problem by sending th

Creating a qubit fit for a quantum future

A topological alternative For the team at Nokia Bell Labs, the solution lies in better qubits rather than bigger machines. Specifically, rather than information encoded in individual elementary particles, the team is focused on qubits that hold this same information in the way matter is spatially oriented—what is known as a topological qubit. This alternative approach uses electromagnetic fields to manipulate charges around a supercooled electron liquid, triggering the qubits to switch between

European banks hit by rogue PayPal payments worth 'billions'

European banks hit by rogue PayPal payments worth 'billions' The BBC has approached PayPal for comment. The DSGV confirmed to the BBC there had been "incidents involving unauthorized direct debits initiated by PayPal against various credit institutions". It said payments were paused on Monday when lenders reported millions of suspicious direct debits from the payment firm. The German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung (SZ) says payments worth in the region of 10 billion euros (£8.6bn) have had t

The Pixel Watch 4 doesn’t fix a longtime Fitbit problem, and I hate it

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Google unveiled the new and improved Pixel Watch 4, yet one of my long-standing asks remains unanswered: true multi-device support. With AI coaching arriving in October, I’d love to see Fitbit allow more than one active device per user. When brands like Garmin and Apple handle this seamlessly, its absence is starting to feel less like an oversight and more like a conscious trade-off. If you could use a Fitbit along with the Pixel Watch, would you do that? 104

Bitcoin Flash Crash Roils Crypto Market

Crypto prices dipped Monday following a so-called flash crash of Bitcoin on Sunday. And while Ethereum dipped as well, the second most popular cryptocurrency is still up significantly on the month. Bitcoin’s weekend crash is being blamed on a single whale who sold 24,000 Bitcoin, according to crypto watchers on X. Bitcoin’s most recent peak hit $117,370 on Friday, not too far from the all-time high of $124,500. But Bitcoin is currently sitting at $112,660, well below recent highs. “Bitcoin fla

Ether pulls back to start the week after hitting a fresh record near $5,000

Ether is pulling back to start the week, after hitting a fresh record over the weekend. On Monday, the price of the second largest cryptocurrency fell 4% to $4,631.61, according to Coin Metrics, trading off its lows of the day. On Sunday, it rose to a fresh record of $4,954.81, after hitting an earlier all-time high Friday for the first time since 2021. Meanwhile, bitcoin was little changed at $112,488.80. Over the weekend, it dropped to $110,779.01, its lowest level since July 10. The flagshi
