December 10, 2025, 11:14 AM EST. Numbers matter, but decisions hinge on people and policy. By late 2025, Starlink has unmatched scale and a rural customer-satisfaction lead, leaving legacy GEO and DSL in the dust. Yet the battle isn't over: two strategic tracks persist. The rise of Amazon Leo and AST SpaceMobile signals a deliberate plan for strategic independence, backed by commitments from AT&T and Verizon that extend into 2030. Regulators and carriers appear to favor a managed market that sustains rivals through capital, spectrum access, and long-horizon bets, even as SpaceX remains the performance leader. The result is a bifurcated future where government intervention and network hedging prevent a pure Musk monopoly from taking hold, reshaping satellite and mobile connectivity.

December 10, 2025, 11:12 AM EST. DJI launches its first robotic vacuum, the DJI Romo, expanding from drones into home robotics. The standout feature is a transparent shell-applied to the Romo P with the Romo A and S retaining white housings-and a see-through docking station, while critical tanks stay solid. Leveraging DJI's AI-driven cleaning paths developed from image-recognition tech, the vacuum creates efficient routes locally (no cloud data) and adapts to spills by slowing movement and brush speed while momentarily boosting suction. It delivers up to 25,000 Pa suction, an anti-tangle double roller brush, plus two side brushes and two mop pads that lift on carpet. The Romo is priced at $1,899 and sold via djidroner.com (more at romo.tech).

December 10, 2025, 11:10 AM EST. British couple Daisy Greenwell and Joe Riory launched the grassroots Smartphone Free Childhood movement after concerns about smartphones' impact on kids' mental health. What began with a viral Instagram post has grown into chapters in 39 countries, urging families to swap screens for outdoors and offline play. The pledge asks parents to avoid smartphones for children before age 14 and to delay social media until 16. The movement has shaped public debate and inspired cautionary ads in the U.S., while policymakers worldwide watch Australia's landmark policy: a ban on social media accounts for under-16s. Greenwell and Riory frame it as a pro-childhood effort, not an anti-tech campaign.

December 10, 2025, 11:06 AM EST. Veteran Electric Inc has renewed its status as an official Tesla dealer authorized to install the Tesla Wall Connector in the Houston area, expanding service across Harris and Montgomery counties. As EV adoption grows-Texas Q1 2025 light-duty EV sales near 7% of new car purchases-the need for proper charging infrastructure becomes urgent. The company's recertification involves updated equipment and training for Master Electricians on Gen 3 and Gen 4 Tesla wall connectors, ensuring proper voltage, amperage, circuit breaker compatibility, and panel capacity assessments. The piece emphasizes a step-by-step process: panel assessment, voltage testing, amperage calculations, wire gauge checks, and safety reviews. It contrasts with unlicensed installers whose shortcuts can cause safety hazards and inadequate charging. Homeowners should plan upgrades before installation to avoid bottlenecks.
