Some users have no real alternatives and hope the Uber-like surge pricing doesn't lead to higher bills. On the flip side, some customers are getting a discount. But the uncertainty is unnerving. pcmag.com/news/not-sustainab…

T-Mobile comes out against satellite D2D in the 2496-2690 MHz band. Argues downlink interference from satellites could cause a cell site to lose up to 96% of its uplink coverage area and reduce uplink speeds for affected customers by 88% to 99%. fcc.gov/ecfs/document/261100…

Let’s set the record straight: @lcfr_hax was the first to discover php2shell and develop a working exploit. See his August 5 tweet: teapawt.net/lcfr_hax/status/208503… His work convinced the PHP Foundation to invest in fixing this entire bug class. He then worked around the clock to review, test, and retest the patches.

We dropped by the NVIDIA RTX SPARK Launch Celebration at Best Buy in San Francisco today. 💻🎉 Hands-on laptop demos showed off what this new hardware can actually do, local founders shared insights during fireside chats, and Jensen even appeared remotely.  We saw the very first customer purchasing an RTX Spark laptop right on the sales floor. A few specific models are available on shelves today for immediate purchase, while preorders have officially opened up for the remainder of the lineup.  Read our complete RTX Spark laptop launch coverage on PCMag.  #RTXSpark #NVIDIARTX #BestBuy #TechNews #AllAccess

T-Mobile's support page for T-Satellite seems to have also removed a couple mentions of Starlink. Still mentions ‘T-Mobile SpaceX' or ‘T-Sat+Starlink' will appear on a connected phone though: t-mobile.com/support/coverag…
