The state of Louisiana has partnered with SpaceX's @Starlink to deliver high-speed internet access to more than 10,600 rural locations by end of the summer.
"The cost of providing fiber connectivity for some of these locations was going to be so expensive that likely it would have made better sense, and it would have been quicker, to connect these folks with @Starlink. The state law states high-speed internet as 100 megabits download and 20 megabits upload. Starlink has consistently shown that they provide in excess of those speeds,” said ConnectLA Executive Director Veneeth Iyengar.
Elon Musk in new interview on the taxes that he pays:
"For my stock options, I pay 40% income tax on a national basis. And then because I spend ~30% of my time in California, I pay another 5%. I pay about 45% in taxes. Then when I die, there will be another 45%, roughly half, that will be taxed. At the end of the day, I'll have a quarter of what I have."

The graveyard gravy train is finally over.
I spent years fighting to stop Washington from sending checks to dead people. Now, Treasury has blocked 4,900 payments worth $99 million.
Turns out checking for a pulse before cutting a check saves money. Duh.

Mercury has no place in the mouths of our children or in modern American health care.
For decades, we have relied on a material that contains one of the world’s most toxic heavy metals when safe, effective mercury-free alternatives are widely available.
@DrOzCMS and I are replacing outdated practices with common sense and putting the health of American families first.
Some politicians want to slow down AI.
But if we do, says @paigelambermont: "You’re going to be getting the authoritarian Chinese version of AI rather than the US innovator’s version."
