by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies
- 14 views
Biking is fun, relaxing, and great exercise to boot, but it's also a bit hazardous depending on where you find yourself. Road riding is extremely popular, but competing with cars for your share of the road is difficult when you're on two non-motorized wheels. Michelin, best known for its car tires, is stepping in to offer a high-tech solution. It's called the BikeSphere, and it's designed to give drivers a clear view of cyclists and help avoid accidents and near-misses. Continue reading...

The Tesla Model 3 interior looks incredible in this new render
by Guest Yoni Heisler- 0 replies
- 21 views
One of the more longstanding questions surrounding Tesla's Model 3 involves the car's interior design. When Elon Musk initially unveiled the Model 3 last year, the interior we saw was rather bland, to say the least. What's more, Tesla's highly anticipated mass market EV lacked a traditional instrument cluster with pertinent information such as speed and range. As a result, speculation that Tesla would either incorporate a digital dashboard or a HUD of some sort quickly began to spread. Continue reading...

Netflix has a hidden limit on downloading shows
by Guest Chris Smith- 0 replies
- 21 views
One of the best things about the Netflix mobile app is that it lets you download movies and TV shows so you can watch them later, even if there’s no internet connection available. However, you should think twice before downloading all your favorite shows on your devices. Not only do they expire after a period of time, but some of them have a download limit. Continue reading...

At the moment, drones are in a weird place. They're popular among hobbyists and photographers for the eye candy they can capture, but they're also extremely useful for more important duties, like search-and-rescue efforts, package deliveries, and even transporting medical samples.

Make no mistake, the OnePlus 5 looks like an iPhone 7 Plus no matter what you hear. And the fact that people are already defending the design of the unreleased Android handset is further proof that the iPhone 7 Plus is the main inspiration for the new OnePlus handset.But let's be clear: there's nothing wrong with other companies using a tried and tested type of design for their devices, especially when everything is just black rectangles anyway.

The advent of smart plugs is pretty terrific. Connected home devices bring with them a whole new dimension of convenience and control, but getting on board also means making a significant investment and upgrading everything around your home. Not everyone has that kind of time or money, which is where smart plugs come in. Using devices like the Wemo Mini Smart Plug, you can plug things in like lamps, fans, coffee makers and just about anything else, and then control those devices with your smartphone or with Alexa, which is way cooler. The three best-selling Alexa-enabed smart plugs on Amazon are all discounted right now, and you can check them out below. TP-Link Sma…

New renders suggest a Galaxy Note 8 design that’s classic Samsung
by Guest Chris Smith- 0 replies
- 19 views
Samsung may soon release a new Galaxy Note handset, a device that’s supposed to make everyone forget about last year’s Galaxy Note 7 debacle. Reports say the Galaxy Note 8 will be launched as soon as late August, and that it’ll basically be a bigger Galaxy S8 version that’ll offer a few extra tricks, including a stylus and a dual lens camera on the back. The same reports say that Samsung’s upcoming flagship won’t have the one feature that’ll probably turn out to be the iPhone 8’s signature trick this year, a fingerprint sensor packed into the display.

E3 2017 has only just begun for those in attendance, but for the rest of us, the show is basically over. EA, Microsoft, Bethesda, Ubisoft, Sony and Nintendo spent the past four days unveiling and showing off dozens of new games that will be out some time in the next year or so, and we're still trying to wrap our heads around it all. Now that I've had some time to think it over, I've rounded up the ten most exciting games that made an appearance at E3 this year. Some were brand new, others had been previously unveiled, but these are the ten games that I'm most anticipating after seeing them at E3 2017. Continue reading...

Uber engineer who sparked massive investigation calls it ‘all optics’

For the last four months, Uber has been living in a state of mild crisis. A mid-February blog post by former Uber engineer Susan Fowler leveled accusations of systemic problems at Uber, including an institutional defense of sexual harassment. The post sparked a months-long investigation that has ended with the termination of a top executive, an "indefinite" leave of absence for founder/CEO/playboy Travis Kalanick, and the imposition of big boy rules on Uber.

Once the Xbox One X hits stores later this year, both Microsoft and Sony will have launched three flavors of their home game consoles.

Microsoft apparently doesn't feel that way at all, and in a recent interview, Xbox head Phil Spencer made it clear that be believes the Xbox One X has no competitor at all. Continue reading...

What if the Google Pixel 2 looked like this?
by Guest Chris Smith- 0 replies
- 21 views
The first revealing Google Pixel 2 rumor arrived a few days ago, with the news that HTC might not be making the Google Pixel 2 XL, as was initially expected. Instead, that job went to LG, and there’s evidence that Google’s Taimen is indeed an LG device — though nobody is calling it Pixel 2 XL at the moment. We’ll remind you that Taimen is the codename of one of the three devices Google was working on, one that described a device even bigger than the original Pixel XL. On top of that, a benchmark listing revealed the Google Pixel 2 XL will have the same 18:9 ratio seen in 2017 handsets that feature all-screen designs, such as the Galaxy S8 and the LG G6.
