The Trump administration promised a fourth wireless carrier — America got a hot mess instead

theverge.com Karl Bode 2025-10-31 16:20:53

With Dish Network owner EchoStar selling $23 billion in valuable spectrum to AT&T, any pretense that the TV provider will become a serious wireless competitor is dead. But the project was always doomed to fail, and despite plenty of assurances by the Trump administration and other companies involved, the very obvious writing was always on the wall. More than 9,000 T-Mobile employees lost their jobs, the wireless sector stopped seriously competing on price, and T-Mobile increasingly began to beh

New Fossils Reveal Ankylosaur With Armor Unlike Any Other Animal, Living or Dead

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-10-31 20:00:05

Ankylosaurs were squat and thick four-legged dinosaurs with club tails and tough body armor. In other words, invincible Pokémon. A new fossil discovery, however, has revealed that the earliest ankylosaurs were several orders of magnitude more badass than their descendants. In a study published today in the journal Nature, researchers describe the partial skeleton of a Spicomellus, a genus of early ankylosaurs, unearthed in Morocco and dating to around 165 million years ago. The finding includes

Poll: Have you ever traveled with your portable projector?

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-01 04:00:37

If it feels like you’ve seen more ads for pocket-, backpack-, and even can-sized projectors lately, you’re not imagining it. Once a novelty, small form beamers are carving out a solid place in the mainstream market. Part of the appeal is obvious: today’s portable projectors aren’t the dim, clunky boxes you may remember from your school library.

Implementing Forth in Go and C

I first ran into Forth about 20 years ago when reading a book about designing embedded hardware. The reason I got the book back then was to actually learn more about the HW aspects, so having skimmed the Forth chapter I just registered an "oh, this is neat" mental note and moved on with my life. Over the last two decades I heard about Forth a few more times here and there, such as that time when Factor was talked about for a brief period, maybe 10-12 years ago or so.

Elehear Beyond Pro Review: Big Hearing Aids

wired.com Christopher Null 2025-11-01 04:00:00

In the world of hearing aids, size is second only to audio quality. Manufacturers regularly tout when they shave a few hundredths of a gram off a model, and many jockey for top position as “the smallest hearing aid on the market.” Never mind any of that, Elehear said in 2024 when it released its Elehear Beyond. At 4.75 grams, the devices were some of the largest I’ve ever tested (nearly double the weight of some competing models), which made them cumbersome and uncomfortable, a major theme in m

But in 2019, SpaceX began deploying its internet-beaming Starlink constellation, and the astronomical community started to sound alarm bells. The satellites were orbiting too low and reflected too much sunlight, leaving bright marks in telescope images. A year later, Rawls and a handful of her colleagues were the first to make a scientific assessment of the satellite streaks’ effect on astronomical observations, using images from the Víctor M.

When the vapor captured by the textured material evaporates, the bubbles shrink down in an origami-like transformation. The vapor then condenses on the glass, where it can flow out through a tube. The system runs entirely on its own, unlike other designs that require batteries, solar panels, or electricity from the grid.
