Brilliant Lightning charger cable has a hidden 128GB iPhone flash drive
by Guest Maren Estrada- 0 replies
- 23 views
At this point we can safely say that Apple’s iPhones will never, ever, ever include support for expandable memory. Apple makes a killing by forcing people to buy pricier iPhone models with more internal storage, and releasing phones with microSD support would put an end to that instantly. Of course, there are still ways to add expandable memory to any iPhone so that you can move large files like videos and photos off of your device, and the Lexar JumpDrive C20i Charging Cable is one of the coolest we’ve seen. It’ll connect your iPhone to a computer or charge it up, just like any other Lightning cable, but it also has a flash drive baked right in! The 128GB model is being …

The Galaxy S8 is selling much better than its predecessor, Samsung said recently, and the company is not done releasing new models. In the past weeks, Samsung unveiled pink and blue versions of the handset, but those don’t bring any new features aside from the new colors. Samsung, however, seems close to launching a brand new Galaxy S8 version, a fresh leak indicates Continue reading...

The Galaxy Note 8 will devour media like no other Note before it
by Guest Chris Smith- 0 replies
- 23 views
Ever since Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Note phablet line in 2011, we were repeatedly told that the Note is supposed to enhance mobile productivity, thanks to the built-in stylus and all the stylus-ready UI features and apps. But it looks like Samsung also wants the Note phones to become the best at consuming content, not just creating it. Continue reading...

We might be made of matter that didn’t originate in the Milky Way
by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies
- 12 views
Ever wonder what you're made of? Is Earth, and by extension humanity, built of matter that collected here after the big bang, or are our origins much more complicated? Our little Solar System tucked away between the massive arms of the Milky Way galaxy might not have the origins that scientists have long assumed, and new research suggests that an untold amount of matter in our home galaxy might not have originated here at all.

Microsoft has been working extremely hard to make Windows 10 the most capable and appealing version of its desktop operating system ever, and it's already made some great progress. Once flooded with compatibility issues and bugs, Windows 10 has come a long way since its launch, and with the Fall Creators Update Microsoft promises it's going to be even better. A newly released insider build of the OS gives us an idea of what to expect, and as PCWorld reports, Microsoft has snuck in several new features. Continue reading...

Russia tried to use an elaborate Facebook hacking scheme on the French presidential campaign

An anonymous source in the White House believes that if the Russian hack your presidential campaign, you’ll never know it happened — okay, it’s Donald Trump. But it turns out that Russian spies do leave traces when they try to hack your presidential campaign. The French President Emmanuel Macron was the target of an elaborate Facebook scheme, a new report says, and Russian intelligence is believed to be responsible. Continue reading...

If Comcast buys Verizon, we should all give up and go home
by Guest Chris Mills- 0 replies

The market for home internet in the US is already absurdly non-competitive. Barely 80 percent of Americans have a choice of providers for high-speed internet at home, a figure that means that you're likely living in a regional internet monopoly. But hey, maybe you should count yourself lucky. An industry analyst, Jason Bazinet from Citigroup, has penned an opinion saying that Comcast should pull a blockbuster deal and buy Verizon for around $215 billion. Continue reading...

Tesla’s Autopilot missed this collision, but luckily the human driver didn’t

Tesla's Autopilot makes driving safer. That was the statistics-based conclusion of an exhaustive NHTSA report, which found that Tesla's self-driving software generally reduced accidents by around 40 percent. But general themes don't hold true in every case, and Autopilot isn't always "better" than the Mark 1 human brain, as this video of a very near miss clearly shows. Continue reading...

We’re only two episodes into Game of Thrones’ seventh season, and we already saw a major battle involving members of two of the main alliances that are currently scheming for power in Westeros. But that’s hardly going to be the only fight in the season. In fact, it appears that HBO went out of its way to come up with epic battles unseen on television so far, clashes that are going to be even bigger than last year’s Battle of the Bastards battle.

Apple is working on super-fast 5G for next-generation iPhones
by Guest Chris Mills- 0 replies

Apple has received a permit to test millimeter-wave 5G technology in two locations near the company's HQ in California. Apple isn't the first to trial 5G -- it joins a growing list of telecoms and device manufacturers dabbling in next-gen communications -- but there is only one iPhone manufacturer. Apple applied for the experimental permit earlier this year, with the stated goal of "to assess cellular link performance in direct path and multipath environments between base station transmitters and receivers using this spectrum. These assessments will provide engineering data relevant to the operation of devices on wireless carriers’ future 5G networks." Continue read…

Of the many awe-inspiring sights in space, watching a star explode has to be one of the most impressive. When a large star meets the end of its life it goes out with a bang, and the explosions they create are thought to be the brightest events in the entire universe. Researchers recently got the rare opportunity to actually watch a star die, capturing the incredible release of energy with a high-powered telescope, and now you can check it out for yourself.
