Now, the app is available to download. It works similarly to Android TV and the PS4, and is available free of charge. Premium users can also use Spotify Connect, which lets you control the app with your phone. Of course, one of the biggest uses is going to be as a backdrop for gaming, and it fully supports this. You’re able to stream one of Spotify’s bespoke gaming playlists or make your own and run it in the background....
If the leak is to be believed, the Galaxy A60 will feature a 32MP front camera, with triple 32/5/8 MP rear cameras. It also reports a 6.7″, Super AMOLED Infinity-U display, with just a tiny notch at the top. For its biometrics, the A60 will have an in-display fingerprint scanner, just like the S10. It will have 6 or 8GB RAM variants, 128GB of storage, and use the SM6150 chipset....
In terms of stylus availability on smartphones, only one company has successfully managed it. Samsung’s Galaxy Note range of handsets have been spectacular, with the S Pen a focal point. Samsung’s more-than-a-stylus device delivers true functionality. Ok, the Note range crashed and burned (literally) with the Galaxy Note 7 last year. However, with huge revenue and a market leading position, Samsung could afford to ride the problem. So, the company has today returned with the Galaxy Note 8, which ones again comes loaded with the S Pen....
Reports suggest Apple is finally working on bringing a foldable iPhone to the market. However, in a unique twist, the device will reportedly use E-Ink displays. Analyst and tech industry watcher Ming-Chi Kuo says Apple is working on Electronic Paper Display (EPD) technology for iPad tablets. However, the company is also considering using the technology on a foldable smartphone. Kuo says EPD “has the potential to become a mainstream solution for foldable devices,” claiming the screen reserves energy better than an LCD or OLED display....
Kuo’s prediction for iPhone 14 Pro shipments during the fourth quarter is 70-75 million units. It was previously estimated Apple would have between 80 and 85 million units ready. Kuo points out shipments are likely to fall 15-20 million short of expectation. This is not because of a decrease in demand, but rather a supply issue. For example, right now in the United States both the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are sold out....
Though Atlanta has not announced the specifics, a screenshot provided to 11 Alive provides some clues. The publication says analysis of the ransomware by experts points to the MSIL or SAMSAM variant, which has been active since 2016. The same strain hit US healthcare facilities during that time period, gaining access via an outdated JBoss content management application. SAMSAM exploits Java-based servers by compiling a list of hosts reporting to the active directory....
One of the things about being a billionaire is that you could theoretically build a part of society in your own image. Walt Disney created parks in which his characters could come to life, and Dr. Evil used his money to try to take over the world. Alphabet CEO Larry Page has long been rumoured to want to buy an island to create a technology haven away from regulation. The funny thing about all those things, is they are enticing and scary in equal measure....
According to the chip maker, Ice Lake is built for deep learning and has built-in Thunderbolt 3 and Wi-Fi 6 support. It’s designed to deliver strong all day performance, with a Dell executive unveiling a laptop with the chip for release later this year. However, Intel was also careful to give desktop users something to look forward to. The company announced its 9th Gen desktop lineup, with six chips releasing soon....
The design of Edge for MacOS will be very similar to on Windows, but it will feature some minor differences. Naturally, it has the typical traffic lights in the top left rather than Windows’ minimize and maximize buttons. Thanks to the Mac theme, its corners are also rounded, while fonts have been adjusted across the board to better fit the OS. Microsoft has also taken the time to switch all references to ‘Ctrl’ for the ‘Command’ key....
Replying to a tweet from tech YouTuber Marques Brownlee, Musk confirmed that the Official tag was no longer available. It seems Twitter is returning to the Blue Tick as Musk describes it as “the great level”. The platform uses a blue checkmark to verify accounts. Musk caused controversy this month when he said the company would start charging users $20 per month for their checkmark. That later became $8 per month to have an account that is verified....
That’s not a flippant remark either as a recent study showed Facebook is comfortably the least trusted tech company. In an effort to rebuild that reputation and recover from privacy scandals, Facebook has hired some of its fiercest critics. This week, the company announced it has appointed three veteran privacy law activists. Among them is Nate Cardozo, an attorney who previously worked with the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF). The EFF has traditionally been critical of Facebook and Cardozo has slammed the company’s privacy practices....
However, after a litany of scandals, it seems Facebook is indeed considering a rebrand. The Verge cites sources close to the company with knowledge of the possibility. It seems the company wants to disassociate itself from the social media platform. Certainly, Facebook has a broad range of investments and interest across AI, development, and communication. By rebranding, the company would essentially take the Google/Alphabet approach. Facebook, the social network, would still exist, but the parent company would be called something else....
The social network announced on Monday the Messenger Kids application. This is a child-focused and supposedly child friendly version of the standard Messenger service. This marks the first time Facebook has opened its doors to children under the age of 13. As you can tell by the title, I am not necessarily down with this idea. However, there are two ways of looking at this app. The first is it is removing what it means to be a child and locking them into a tech world too early....

Though Microsoft outright denies those claims, it’s also been employing some shady tactics to make the problem go away. Newly released court documents reveal the full scope of the problem, and it’s staggering. According to Reuters, women filed 238 discrimination and harassment complaints against the company between 2010 and 2016. According to the court filings, out of 118 gender discrimination complaints, the company only found one to be ‘founded’. Despite the statistic, Microsoft claims it thoroughly investigates such cases....
Google has been promising its intentions to make Google Chat become its default texting app since earlier this year. At the time, the company said Google Hangouts on Gmail web, mobile, and Chrome extension will be automatically migrated to Chat. Now, the company is confirming that migration and says Google Hangouts will head into the sunset on November 1, 2022. More details on what admins need to do to export their data and changes happening with Vault will be sent before the cutoff date via email....
Google employee Peter Beverloo announced the integration of Windows 10 notifications on Twitter. The ability is arriving on Chrome 68, the latest version of the browser. Beverloo confirmed the feature was developed in collaboration with Microsoft. In fact, he thanked the company’s Action Center and Edge teams for helping in the development. One thing I want to clear up. Some people have contacted me mixing up what this development means....
Windows 10 and Apple’s MacOS have had virtual desktops for some time, so Google is playing catchup in this regard. The company is on the roadmap for Chrome OS, the company’s lightweight PC platform. Google has been trying to make Chrome OS increasingly mature to compete in the enterprise market against Windows 10. A virtual desktop would be a great way to achieve that. Called “Virtual Desks”, the feature is currently in development according to a Chromium Commit....
In terms of boosting capabilities in a COVID-19 world, tech companies are both helping users and continuing to differentiate their own services from rivals. We have already seen how Microsoft has leveraged Bing Maps for COVID-related tools. Google Maps is furthering its commitment to tracking COVID-19 data with a new layer available this week. Now, the popular mapping tool will provide critical information on the pandemic in specific areas. According to Google, the new layer will help users have more understanding of the COVID-19 spread in a location before they visit....
