Starlink’s In-Flight Wi-Fi Is Faster Than Its Home Internet Speeds: Here’s Why

The satellite internet company from SpaceX clocked median download speeds of 152 megabits per second and upload speeds of 24Mbps. That means that Starlink’s speeds in the air are faster than some internet providers on the ground. Those download and upload speeds were nearly twice as fast a

The Stop Killing Games initiative has hit a major milestone, but the fight's just begun

A petition to preserve video game access recently achieved an important milestone of one million signatures, but it has two more challenges to overcome before reaching the final level.

Tesla Robotaxi Rider Gets Bizarre Call Saying She Has to Exit Vehicle Immediately

Prime Video: The 29 Absolute Best Shows to Watch

YouTube Premium offers many more perks that I didn’t know I was paying for

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority I’ve been subscribed to YouTube Premium for many years now, and yet I didn’t know what I was exactly paying for. In my mind, I always associated Premium with an ad-free experience; being able to get rid of all those pesky long and interrupting ads before or while watching a video is alone worth the price. Adding the family benefits for my husband, and the fact that this works everywhere, including on our TVs, makes it more of a no-brainer. Even though I don’t

Elon Musk Rekindles Trump Criticism, Attacks ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’

The long-simmering feud between President Donald Trump and his former ‘first buddy’ Elon Musk is showing signs of boiling over once more. Following the passing of Trump’s signature “One Big Beautiful Bill” that will offer tax breaks to the wealthy while kicking millions off of Medicaid, Musk publicly supported Senator Rand Paul’s criticism (one of the few Republican ‘no’ votes in the Senate), specifically Paul’s assertion that the bill would ‘explode the deficit. Rand posted on X, “The Big Not-

What the Hell Just Happened to Spider-Gwen?

Marvel Comics is no stranger to a bit of brand synergy and consolidation. The more characters break out into the mainstream beyond the readership of comics, the more their comics counterparts are sanded down and chopped and changed to eventually better accommodate the potential for audiences who are aware of them through adaptation to go to the comics and find familiar fare. This has been especially true as the shadow of the MCU grew ever larger, reshaping characters and realigning destinies the
