It's really something when *execs at wireless carriers* are the ones saying that everybody else needs to ease off the next-G hype.

Sharing Apple News links without naming the source publication was always unhelpful, but now that we can't see the original headline it's even harder to guess where a click through will go. Either name the source or link directly to it instead of promoting Apple's newsstand.

The headline I wrote for my recap of today's #Starship recap, and which the editors kept (which I can assure you is nowhere near a sure thing in journalism): Starship's Second Flight Test Burns Bright But Not Quite Long Enough pcmag.com/news/starships…

If anybody's looking for an escape pod off this platform, I have two Bluesky invite codes. E-mail me if you'd like one.

This is at least the third year in a row where I've covered Comcast jacking up broadband and TV rates only weeks before Christmas. You'd think at some point that somebody in Comcast PR would question this Grinch-esque timing... pcmag.com/news/comcast-t…

I'm done here. Welcoming Alex Jones back is even more vile than Elon's prior platform destruction, and I will not support this toxic site with more free writing. Find me on Bluesky, Mastodon and LinkedIn: bsky.app/profile/robpeg… journa.host/@robpegoraro linkedin.com/in/robpegoraro/

Reminder: I'm done supporting this site with free content, so if you're curious about my takes from #CES2024 this week you can choose among the following options. bsky.app/profile/robpeg… journa.host/@robpegoraro linkedin.com/in/robpegoraro/

Good morning from #MWC24, from where I will not be tweeting because I'm done supporting this site. Instead, look for my real-time notes on Bluesky and (probably less often) Mastodon: bsky.app/profile/robpeg… journa.host/@robpegoraro

Reminder: Elon Musk's continued misrule has not made this site any less repellent. Meanwhile, Bluesky keeps advancing, so you should look me up there (and I'm going to revise my pinned tweet to emphasize that): bsky.app/profile/robpeg…

In case anybody was wondering about my continued silence here: Elon's attempts to turn this platform into Truth Social 2.0 haven't made me any more interested in supporting it with free writing. Look me up on Bluesky instead: bsky.app/profile/robpeg…

As this platform continues to decay into Elon's propaganda playground, I remain uninterested in supporting it with free writing. Instead, look me up on Bluesky. Not sure who else to follow there? Try this starter pack of tech journalists: bsky.app/starter-pack/r…

1) Yes, I'm going to CES. 2) No, I won't be posting about it here. This platform's operation and ownership continue to leave me with no business or ethical interest in supporting it with free writing. 3) You will find me posting about CES on Bluesky: bsky.app/profile/robpeg…
