Watch 17 years of car safety tech save one driver’s life, and kill another
by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies

Everyone knows that cars have gotten safer over time, or at least we know that the number of safety features which modern cars have has gone from a handful to dozens upon dozens. Despite that, it's sometimes hard to see real concrete evidence of that fact unless you've been in a serious accident yourself — or, even better, an accident in both the 1990s and another one today. Thankfully, this fantastic video showcasing a crash between a 1998 Toyota Corolla and a 2015 Corolla makes the safety advances in car technology abundantly clear, without you needing to risk your own neck.

Trump’s classified intel leak was about the airplane laptop ban
by Guest Chris Smith- 0 replies

The United States and Britain are two countries that are currently barring passengers on flights from certain Muslim countries from bringing laptops and tablets in their carry-on luggage. Australia might be the third. On top of that, America is considering extending its ban to all of Europe, according to recent reports. While it was not clear whether there is a good enough reason to enforce such bans, reports have shown there are concerns that terrorists might build bombs into laptops or tablets and detonate them inside the cockpit. The threat appears to be even more serious now, as it looks like Trump’s massive security blunder concerns the laptop ban. And Russia k…

Apple might be poaching the exec behind ‘Game of Thrones’
by Guest Yoni Heisler- 0 replies

For some time now, it's been painfully clear that Apple has no idea what it's doing in the TV space. Not only has this been plainly evident from Apple's lack of action in the area, Hollywood sources have relayed that industry executives often leave meetings with Apple with no idea as to what the company's ultimate goals really are. And while companies like Netflix, Amazon and even YouTube are doubling down on original content, Apple can't even manage to release its own version of Carpool Karaoke on time. Continue reading...

Samsung's Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ are fantastic phones. The iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are the best-selling smartphones on the planet. Pick any of those four hot flagship devices, and you'll undoubtedly love it. But some people don't want to be like everyone else. Some people want a handset that's just as powerful as any of those smartphones, but that's also unique. For you, there's the new HTC U11, which is available for pre-order right now on Amazon. The U11 sports a crazy new look that reflects all kinds of colors, and it has powerful specs like the Snapdragon 835 processor.

Galaxy S8 video showdown proves the US version is plenty fast
by Guest Jacob Siegal- 0 replies
- 29 views
Not all Galaxy S8 smartphones are created equal. As with the Galaxy S7 before it, there are two versions of the Galaxy S8: one for the US and one for the international market. The key difference between the two phones is that the US version comes equipped with Qualcomm's 10nm Snapdragon 835 chipset while the international version features Samsung's 10nm Exynos 8895 processor. There isn't a huge gulf between the two chips, but benchmark tests have shown that the Exynos CPU is indisputably faster than the Qualcomm component. But how much of a difference does it make?

The LG V30 will look like every other flagship this year
by Guest Chris Mills- 0 replies
- 22 views
Smartphone design is a tricky business. Every company wants all the same features as its competitors, but chasing an identical set of features has an unfortuante consequence: a bunch of black rectangles that all look vaguely similar. When one company does come up with a genuine innovation -- like the zero-bezel display on Samsung's new Galaxy S8 -- the result is that every single smartphone that comes out for the next year looks mostly similar. I'd like to say that LG is boldy bucking the trend this year, but accoridng to a report from The Investor, the LG V30 is just going to be more of the same. Continue reading...

Gaze upon this plastic garbage island and question if capitalism is really worth it
by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies

Humans are just the worst, at least as far as the wellbeing of the Earth is concerned. We've done plenty of horrible things to this planet, but perhaps our worst misstep was inventing plastic. That water bottle you drank from this morning will outlive you, along with all the other plastic crap you've ever thrown away, and if it's not properly recycled it just kind of lingers on in dumps, landfills, or, if it's lucky (I guess?) this once pristine tropical island in the South Pacific.

A new report suggests that Apple is planning on upgrading the entire MacBook line at WWDC, its big developer conference held at the end of May. Some upgrades we can already call: the new MacBook Pro and old MacBook Air line will probably get Intel's latest version of Core i7 processor, and new iMacs are almost a lock. But beyond a minor spec bump, it's difficult to know exactly what Apple plans to do with the Retina MacBook. Continue reading...
