One of the most important things to me in a flight is high speed internet…will always choose one with Starlink onboard.
The best in-flight connectivity is provided by @starlink. In addition to far superior speeds, median latencies are more than 10x lower than other solutions.

All @Starlink Direct to Cell Gen 1 satellites have now been launched. Congrats to the team to get to this milestone. We are able to partner and provide satellite cellular coverage in a short number of weeks for any new telco around that world that wants to eliminate dead zones.
Congrats to the @SpaceX team on completing the first generation Starlink Direct to Cell constellation!. Working with cellular providers around the world, Direct to Cell enables unmodified cellphones to have connectivity in the most remote areas 🛰️🌎❤️ →

A 20yr extension to Diablo Canyon is the singular most green thing that California can do for the environment, and for keeping energy prices lower for all Californians. In addition to this, CA also needs to be building an additional 10 GW continuous more solar + battery, but.
After safety reviews and inspections of Units 1 & 2, @NRCgov inspectors pen their support for Diablo Canyon license renewal for an additional 20 years. Click the link to read the letter.

Wow. 17 Tesla is very serious. This would give a roughly 1.5 mm ion gyro radius for Tritium for 10 keV temps. @RealtaFusion , what are you doing at the ends? Playing the progressive differentially biased ring Phaedrus trick for creating a radial electric field?.
A baby star is born, in a simple cylinder ☀️. Realta’s magnetic mirror fusion reactor is small and modular, with a 50MW minimum efficient scale and lowest cost energy (aiming to be cheaper than natural gas). This allows it to be deployed at remote mining and industrial sites,

The Starlink mini is amazing. I’ve used mine at home, in a boat, in a small plane, out and about at a picnic table using my usual USB battery. @Starlink Direct to Cell (texting and lite data) is in beta in the US now and commercially live this summer. We are commercially live.

1 million texts sent via @Starlink Direct to Cell satellites to @onenzofficial users in New zealand. With cyclones like Tam, it’s not a bad idea to have a OneNZ sim close by, just in case those cell towers go down, you wonder off the beaten path, or you go boating.

Rave, rave, against the dying of the neutrons.
Announcing the Rave for Nuclear Energy. In 1976, California banned the construction of new nuclear energy. But now, the bipartisan Assembly Bill 305 — is moving through Sacramento to lift the moratorium. This is the moment to come together a rave for a prosperous future.

Your chances of being attacked by zombies is low but never zero. @onenzofficial and @Starlink Direct to Cell service has you covered with sat comms to your normal mobile phone when disaster strikes anywhere in New Zealand and 20+ km out to sea.
⚠️⚠️This is a PSA on behalf of the Zombie Research Society ⚠️⚠️. One NZ Satellite is the secret weapon you’ll want during any disaster, including an undead uprising! . But don’t take our word for it, hear what Cliff Curtis has to say about the importance of being connected when
