Elon Musk co-authored a COVID-19 antibody study of SpaceX workers Posted: 22 Feb 2021 06:05 PM PST More that 4,300 SpaceX employees volunteered to be part of a COVID-19 antibody study co-authored by CEO Elon Musk in 2020. The study, which was recently published in the journal Nature Communications, shows evidence that infected people who exhibited milder symptoms developed less of an immunity to COVID-19 than those who got sicker from the disease. The group behind the study found some evidence that suggests there's a particular threshold of antibodies that could provide immunity, though they wrote that "the precise levels [...] associated with protection from re-infection remain unclear." Vaccines also produce a much stronger immune response than cases with little to no symptoms, the authors note. They hope that this research, and o... |
LG denies the Rollable phone has been put on hold Posted: 22 Feb 2021 05:55 PM PST LG Electronics has told The Verge that the company's phone with a resizable screen, the LG Rollable, has not been put on hold. "I can firmly deny that any such decision on future mobile products has been finalized," says an LG spokesperson. The denial comes in response to a report from Yonhap News that LG had reportedly told parts suppliers that the Rollable had been put on hold and that they could request a refund for their development efforts. Denying that a final decision has been made is not quite the same thing as reassuring everyone that the Rollable is still coming in 2021, but it could reflect the general uncertainty that comes with designing, manufacturing, and shipping complicated electronics during a global pandemic. And it... |
Google has finally added iOS’s privacy labels to Gmail Posted: 22 Feb 2021 05:37 PM PST Google has finally added Apple App Store privacy labels to its Gmail app, almost a month after we ran an article wondering what was taking so long (via MacRumors). The app is the second major Google app to get the labels, after they were added to YouTube when it was updated earlier this month. So how does it look? Well, that's up for you to decide. The app apparently shares your coarse location and user ID with advertisers, as well as information about your interaction with advertisements. According to the privacy label, though, it doesn't collect your name, physical address, or phone number (though as an email client, Gmail obviously collects your email address). Location data is also used for analytics and there are some features of... |
Elon Musk says Starlink internet speeds will double to 300 Mbps this year Posted: 22 Feb 2021 04:17 PM PST Starlink, SpaceX's satellite-based internet provider, will double in speed "later this year", according to a tweet by Elon Musk, posted as a reply to someone who had just received their Starlink beta kit (via CNET). The company currently promises speeds between 50 to 150 Mbps, and Musk specifically calls out a 300 Mbps goal in his tweet. While 300 Mbps isn't unheard-of speed, it's faster than many people currently have access to, especially in the low-to-medium population density areas that Musk talks about targeting in a second tweet.

Lucid Motors is going public in a major SPAC merger Posted: 22 Feb 2021 03:18 PM PST Lucid Motors is going to become a publicly-traded company on the New York Stock Exchange in a deal that will leave the electric vehicle startup with $4.4 billion in cash. The California startup, which is majority-owned by Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund, plans to start shipping its first luxury electric vehicle — the 500-mile range Air sedan — later this year. An electric SUV is slated to follow in 2023. Much like many other startups in the automotive space have done over the past year, Lucid Motors is skipping the traditional path to becoming a publicly-traded company and is instead merging with a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC. Specifically, Lucid Motors is merging with Churchill Capital Corp IV, which is already... |
Sony is bringing back Twisted Metal... as a TV show Posted: 22 Feb 2021 02:10 PM PST Sony is bringing back its Twisted Metal franchise, but this time it's going to be a TV show, not a video game. According to Variety, the show is moving ahead in its production, with the writers of Deadpool and actor Will Arnett signed on as executive producers. The Twisted Metal games center mainly around getting in a heavily armored car and blowing other drivers up. The series, which the head of PlayStation Productions calls "one of the most beloved franchises from PlayStation," started on the original PS1 and got releases on the PS2 and PS3 as well (though my personal favorite was the PSP version, which I sunk hours upon hours into). The series went dormant during the years of the PlayStation 4, however, with no signs of a console... |
Dish is confident in its plan to offer 5G in its first major cities by end of Q3 2021 Posted: 22 Feb 2021 01:59 PM PST Dish Network co-founder and chairman Charlie Ergen underscored the company's commitment to building a 5G wireless network on today's Q4 2020 earnings call. He restated the intention to bring 5G online in its first major cities by the end of Q3 2021 — that's the period running from July through September — and was bullish on Dish's ability to boost the US's somewhat dismal global position in terms of wireless network offerings. Ergen spent several minutes on today's call recapping what the company has done so far in its network-building effort. With its acquisition of Boost Mobile last year, it's currently offering prepaid service as an MVNO on T-Mobile's network, but it has also been accumulating its own spectrum to make the move to a... |
Here’s where and when you can buy the Xbox Series S and Series X consoles Posted: 22 Feb 2021 01:55 PM PST Update February 22nd, 2021 4:55PM ET: The Xbox Series S is currently available at Best Buy for $299.99. You can find more information here. The Xbox Series S and Series X consoles are officially out, and if you missed out on preordering either (or both — look, I'm not going to judge), you might be able to snag one online soon. Due to the pandemic, combined with the high demand for these consoles, retailers like Best Buy and Target are only selling online. That means you won't be able to walk into a store to pick one up — unless you've purchased it already online. Only then will you be able to arrange an in-store pickup. Until we hear updates on stock replenishing from retailers, I recommend keeping it locked to Amazon, Target, the M... |
Xbox Series S is in stock at Best Buy Posted: 22 Feb 2021 01:49 PM PST Last November, Microsoft debuted two next-gen consoles — the Xbox Series X and the more affordable Xbox Series S. If you are looking for the more affordable next-gen Xbox, Best Buy has the console in stock right now. The Xbox Series S variant costs $299, is smaller, and is less powerful than the $500 Series X. One other important thing to note is the Xbox Series S is a digital-only console, meaning it lacks a disc drive to play physical games. If you plan to buy this console, you may want to consider picking up a few accessories that will help you get the most out of your new gadget, most notably an additional controller if you are playing a game with a local co-op with a friend or family member. As far as storage goes, both... |
SpaceX announces second crew member of its all-civilian space mission Posted: 22 Feb 2021 01:29 PM PST Hayley Arceneaux, a physician assistant at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, will join the first all-civilian trip to space, SpaceX announced today. She will orbit Earth for up to five days in the Crew Dragon capsule as part of the Inspiration4 mission. Crew members are being selected based on "mission pillars of leadership, hope, generosity and prosperity," according to the press release for the mission. Arceneaux, SpaceX said, will represent hope. Diagnosed with bone cancer at 10, she had some of the bones in her left leg replaced with titanium as part of her treatment. She was treated at St. Jude, where she now works with children who are being treated for lymphoma and leukemia. With the upcoming mission, Arceneaux will become... |
