  @MacCash55 @TheStig_16 @TELUS The same TSN that shut down TSN 1040?

  @ElliottWolfeJ I thought I’d never say this, but I’ll be switching to Telus. Rogers can just go back and stay in Toronto.

  @BCLionsDen @Rogers I switched a couple years ago. Telus coverage is **** compared to Rogers. Be ready for dead spots all around the lower mainland. The drive to Kelowna and back also sucked for service compared to Rogers.

  I can't wait to cancel @TELUS @TELUSsupport and get @Starlink. Would be nice to have something reliable for once

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport I’ve been a customer for a whopping 3 months and already hate it. Haven’t had internet in 5 days. Can’t reach a human, chat bot is 💩 and no one has called me back after getting messages of ‘you will get a callback within 15 minutes’

  News must be a public service. The closure of radio news 1130 is criminal.Local newspapers were torched over a year ago, along with the radio traffic station. In MetroVancouver, a major city of 3 million, it has gone silent. Companies like Rogers and Telus are ANTI-Communications

  @TELUS Awesome, it took several tech support agents not knowing how to ssolve the issue before I found one who said I wasn't the first person having the issue and knew the fix

  $ASTS --- Japan’s government plans to issue up to ¥1.48 trillion (approximately $912 million) in large-scale public subsidies for a satellite communications project led by Rakuten. Rakuten is a core early investor and strategic partner of ASTS. The two firms are advancing a joint venture (JV) in Japan to secure full regulatory approvals for commercial direct-to-device (D2D) operations. This government subsidy effectively covers ASTS’s Asia network deployment costs head-on, drastically easing market concerns over the company’s cash burn trajectory. The firm successfully launched BlueBirds 8, 9 and 10 in mid-June 2026, and all three satellites are operating smoothly in orbit. Shortly after, ASTS officially announced plans to deploy BlueBirds 11, 12 and 13 in early August 2026. Why the August Launch Matters This batch will carry ultra-large antenna arrays spanning 2,400 square feet. ASTS previously hit a peak download speed of 98.9 Mbps on unmodified consumer smartphones via satellite connectivity; the new August satellites are projected to double this maximum throughput. 1. The World’s First Truly Gap-Free Cellular Network Legacy satellite communications systems including Iridium and early Starlink require custom antennas, ground terminals or dedicated satellite handsets. $ASTS ’s proprietary technology enables billions of existing unmodified 4G/5G smartphones worldwide to connect directly to orbital satellites. The innovation instantly erases all terrestrial coverage dead zones across oceans, deserts and mountainous terrain. 2. Landlord-Style Model Locked In With Global Telecom Giants $ASTS does not compete for end users against carriers like T-Mobile, AT&T and Verizon — instead, it acts as their critical infrastructure ally. The company has executed binding commercial agreements with top-tier global operators: AT&T, Verizon, Japan’s Rakuten, Canada’s Telus and more. These carriers willingly share revenue with ASTS to deliver seamless connectivity to subscribers operating in off-grid regions. This business model pushes customer acquisition costs (CAC) nearly to zero, and will generate massive high-margin recurring cash flow once the full satellite constellation is operational. 3. Ample Cash Runway to Alleviate Cash-Burn Skepticism As of the latest quarterly filing, the company holds $3.5 billion in cash on its balance sheet versus only around $2.9 billion in long-term debt. This robust liquidity provides unconstrained capital to ramp launch contracts and satellite manufacturing through 2026–2027, eliminating near-term risks of dilutive equity offerings or distressed asset sales. Management’s official guidance pins full-year 2026 revenue between $150 million and $200 million, with revenue poised to approach $1 billion in 2027 as the network activates commercially.
