On a highway in Munich, Germany, a Tesla owner recently sacrificed his car to rescue another driver having a stroke. According to Muenchner Merkur, the Tesla driver saw a VW Passat swerving erratically, hitting the guardrail several times. On closer inspection, he noticed that the driver appeared to be unconcious. So, the Tesla driver maouvered his car in front and slowed down gradually, forcing a gentle collision and bringing both cars to a halt. Continue reading...

The Galaxy S8 won’t be unveiled at MWC 2017, as some of you may have expected. Instead, Samsung will unveil a new Android tablet at the show. But that doesn’t mean the Galaxy S8 will be ignored.

Apple’s iPhone 8 will be the first iPhone in history to feature an OLED screen like the ones found on competing handsets from Samsung. Interestingly, Apple's frenemy Samsung is going to be the sole supplier of OLED displays for Apple’s best iPhone this year. But Apple is looking to fix this OLED “problem” in the years that follow, mostly since Samsung alone won’t be able to fulfill Apple’s iPhone needs. Continue reading...

Writing for The Atlantic this week, Ian Bogost published an embarrassingly hollow piece arguing why Apple's design prowess is nothing more than a myth. With more than 1500 words at his disposal, Bogost strains to come up with any compelling or even mildly convincing evidence to support his rather bold and eye-catching claim. Continue reading...

We've all done it. You're out of town, in a hotel room with nothing better to do. You know you shouldn't, but you just can't stop yourself. You open your laptop, navigate to Netflix and watch the next three episodes of that show you and your significant other have been binge-watching for the past week. It's a phenomenon known as "Netflix cheating," and while it's a serious offense, you can take comfort in the fact that you're not the only one Netflix cheating on your boyfriend, girlfriend, husband or wife.

It’s still unclear what President Donald Trump really knows about the cyber, and whether he’s learning anything new while in office, but he does love to tweet. Worse, he reportedly uses an old Galaxy S3 phone to do it. That’s apparently his own unsecured handset, which he shouldn’t be touching in the first place. To make things worse, reports also note that the president received a safe smartphone to replace his personal device, but he doesn't seem to be using it. Following the string of reports that detailed Trump’s phone preferences, a couple of senators wrote a formal letter, inquiring about the kind of smartphone the most powerful man in the country uses.

The iPhone might get a display like no other smartphone out there, and it’s all starting with the iPhone 8. The device is rumored to have an all-screen front-side featuring minimal bezels and no home button. The fingerprint sensor should be embedded in the screen, and there’s indirect evidence that Apple might also include other front-facing sensors in the display. That’s something that nobody has pulled off so far, not even the upcoming Galaxy S8. Due in mid-April, the Galaxy S8’s top bezel is supposed to house various sensors, including the front camera and iris scanner. Even if Apple doesn't ditch iPhone bezels completely this year, the iPhone will still have amazin…

It's been over half a decade since Japan's Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station suffered a catastrophic meltdown which topped the International Nuclear Event Scale due to its severity. Radiation loves to hang around, and researchers conducting operations with robots inside the damaged reactors were met with radiation levels at their highest point since the actual meltdown back in 2011. In fact, the radiation level is so elevated that the robot operators had to quickly recall one of their robotic probes because it began to literally go blind. Continue reading...
