SpaceX wants to provide internet on school buses to enable students to do homework en route. I guess this is sort of a giveback to society so that SpaceX can easily expand without conflict from the FCC.

How much Internet Speed to I need
This is a question that I always get; it depends from person to person. Some users would need more speed if their kids do gaming or are running security cameras throughout their house and are using their wifi. But the majority of the users who do not have this problem can use the chart below.
Note : Don't fall for those salesman scams that you need gigabyte service. You are just wasting money. Gigabyte is way to advance and it will be a few more years before anyone trully gets full capacity. My advise is start low and gradually increase your internet plan as your broadband needs get bigger.

A group of hackers again were able to get control of Amazon's IP addresses to hack some crypto users and when all the dust cleared these thieves were able to drain $235,000 from crypto users.
It's another deja vu from Amazon, and they should have learned from the 2018 attack that their systems need to be changed.

Alienware Ban
It's pretty interesting that with the current power consumption problems within six states this laptop is being banned and we can see more of this in years to come.
I understand the recent ban on electronic devices for power, I just don't believe that banning these devices is the right move. Instead there should be more emphasis put on developing better technology to save power.
