Starlink has brought high-speed internet to millions of rural Americans for the first time. It’s also one of the most expensive internet service providers in the country. So, how is it available in New York for just $15 a month? If Starlink wants to sell internet in the state, it doesn’t have a choice. That’s thanks to the Affordable Broadband Act, a New York state law passed in January. Customers will still have to pay for $349 upfront, however, which will likely be an insurmountable cost for

Tesla's change in bylaws to limit shareholder lawsuits slammed by New York state officials

cnbc.com Lora Kolodny 2025-07-25 02:33:36

In May, Tesla changed its corporate bylaws in a way that would require investors to own 3% of the stock, today worth about $30 billion, in order to file a derivative lawsuit against the company for breach of fiduciary duties. Authorities in New York State are now asking Tesla to delete the bylaw entirely. Overseers of the New York State Common Retirement Fund, which owns about 0.1% of Tesla's shares, submitted a formal proxy proposal and letter to the company on July 11, and shared it with CNBC

The torrential downpour lashed vast swaths of the Northeast U.S. Monday, inundating New York City, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and the Washington, D.C. metro area. Fast-rising waters stranded vehicles, shut down transit lines, and prompted water rescues across the region, just a week after flash floods killed more than 100 people in Texas; as of Monday evening, there were at least 185 reports of flooding acro

James Wan Offers a Mildly Discouraging Update on That ‘Train to Busan’ Remake

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-08-23 10:00:12

Released in 2016, Yeon Sang-ho‘s Train to Busan proved there were still plenty of fresh thrills to be mined from the zombie genre. It spawned an animated prequel and a sequel, and nobody was surprised when an American remake, to be titled The Last Train to New York, was announced. A 2023 release date made things official… almost. Obviously, The Last Train to New York—which at one point had Timo Tjahjanto (May the Devil Take You, this year’s Nobody 2) attached to direct and Gary Dauberman (It an

From the moment OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stepped onstage, it was clear this was not going to be a normal interview. Altman and his chief operating officer, Brad Lightcap, stood awkwardly toward the back of the stage at a jam-packed San Francisco venue that typically hosts jazz concerts. Hundreds of people filled steep theatre-style seating on Wednesday night to watch Kevin Roose, a columnist with The New York Times, and Platformer’s Casey Newton record a live episode of their popular technology po

Tesla and Google’s Robotaxis Still Really Aren’t That Autonomous

Tesla’s impending robotaxi service comes with a whole list of caveats you’ll need to agree to before you huddle into the backseat of its autonomous vehicles. Or, perhaps they’re not really that autonomous. The first Tesla Model Y Cybercab services will be limited to select participants (including Tesla influencers), but even then drivers can expect to have a “safety monitor” in the driver’s seat.

Waymo will start testing its autonomous cars in New York again

Waymo's autonomous cars are heading back to New York City in July, the company announced today. Cars will be manually driven for now, not unlike the mapping tests Waymo ran in 2021, but the company says it ultimately wants to bring the same autonomous ride-hailing service it offers in San Francisco, Phoenix and Los Angeles to NYC. New York state law currently doesn't allow for the operation of a vehicle without a human driver, an obvious obstacle for a company like Waymo. As a bridge to offerin

Residents of New York City will soon start seeing Waymo cars cruising the avenues. But at least for now, a human will be in the driver's seat.
