How global warming will make you weak and sick
by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies
- 19 views
If rising sea levels, more powerful storms, and mass extinction just haven't been enough to spark your concern over the growing climate crisis, perhaps becoming ill will do the trick. New research into the impact of global warming on crops reveals that rising CO2 levels will actually reduce the amount of protein and key minerals in many different foods, which will put massive populations at a huge risk of increased disease and stunted growth.

Google and MIT just invented a way to improve your photos before you even take them
by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies
- 21 views
Apps like Camera+, Instagram and Snapchat have made it fairly easy to turn decent mobile photos into something a bit more appealing to the eye, but they're a far cry from the retouching efforts of professional photographers. Working in conjunction with MIT, Google has built a new digital photography system that can automatically improve photos in a dramatic way, and it's so fast that it can do it in real time.

Last month, we disseminated a public service announcement warning our readers not to preorder this crazy $1,200 holographic phone from RED. No one had actually seen the phone in action yet, and even if it turned out to be a revolutionary product, we didn't want anyone to take the risk.

An Elon Musk concept at first, the Hyperloop train may become a reality sooner than expected -- though it’s not Musk who is overseeing the various Hyperloop projects currently underway.

Samsung’s worst-kept secret is out: The Galaxy S8 Active is real
by Guest Chris Mills- 0 replies
- 14 views
We've known for a while now that Samsung is going to release a rugged version of the Galaxy S8 sometime this summer. It's not rocket science: every version of the Galaxy S has had a rugged counterpart since the Galaxy S4, and the timing fits right into Samsung's release schedule. But if we needed any more confirmation, a leaked promotion from AT&T itself has proven that yes, the Galaxy S8 Active is real -- and likely coming sometime soon. Continue reading...

This magnetic tape drive can store way more data than you’d imagine
by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies
- 16 views
The hard drive in your computer right now — or even your smartphone, for the matter — absolutely dwarfs the storage drives of just a decade ago. The relentless march of technology ensures that digital devices require more and more space to hold growing libraries of music, movies, and photos, and a new breakthrough in data storage by IBM and Sony promises to make your current hard drive feel completely inadequate. The only catch is that it uses a storage technique that you probably thought was long dead: magnetic tape. Continue reading...

iPhone 8 leaks continue: Smartcam could be a killer app on iOS 11
by Guest Jacob Siegal- 0 replies

Last Friday, pre-release software for Apple's HomePod was made available to the public. Within the code of this software, a group of coders discovered countless clues about the nature of the iPhone 8, which has now been as thoroughly spoiled as any iPhone in the device's 10-year history. But the tap is still running, and leaks are still pouring on to the internet at a furious rate. On Wednesday afternoon, iOS developer Guilherme Rambo uncovered a section a code in the HomePod build of iOS 11 that details a feature called "Smartcam," which might be exclusive to either iOS 11 or the iPhone 8.

Smart home speakers equipped with microphones programmed to listen for everything you say may be turned into devices that would spy on everything you say. Gadgets like Amazon Echo and Google Home are programmed to record your commands, but they’re also programmed to ignore everything you say unless you use a hot word to activate the assistants. But as it turns out, someone with physical access to an Amazon Echo device could hack it to send everything it hears to a remote server. Continue reading...

The Galaxy S8 accessory everyone’s buzzing about has never been cheaper on Amazon

Samsung’s Galaxy S8 and S8+ design is absolutely stunning, with an Infinity Screen that takes up almost the entire face of the phone. But one of the best things about Samsung’s latest flagship handsets has nothing to do with the screen. In fact, it has nothing to do at all with the design. Instead, it’s the awesome desktop experience that these new phones can power, but they can’t do it on their own. You’ll need a Samsung DeX Station to unlock this brilliant capability, and you’ll find it on sale right now on Amazon at its lowest price ever.

Remember yesterday when we wrote that it was difficult to care about Samsung's upcoming new Galaxy Note 8 after seeing the sleek Galaxy Note 9 that a graphic designer cooked up? Yeah, forget all that. We've seen the Note 8 appear in renders countless times at this point. We've even shared some with our readers exclusively. Most recently, Samsung's own marketing renders leaked out, giving us our first unofficial look at Samsung's official Galaxy Note 8. Despite all that, a new render that attempts to place Samsung's upcoming new flagship phablet in a real-world setting likely does the best job we've seen of showing us what the Note 8 will look like in person.
