| Assassin’s Creed Odyssey teased ahead of E3 Posted: 31 May 2018 05:30 PM PDT  Ubisoft has confirmed rumors that its next installment in the action stealth series Assassin's Creed is called Odyssey and is very likely set in ancient Greece. The developer's official Assassin's Creed Twitter account put out a short, six-second teaser video this afternoon featuring what looks like a Spartan soldier kicking an enemy off a cliff. That's a clear tip of the hat to the most famous scene in Zack Snyder's film adaptation of Frank Miller's Spartan-themed graphic novel 300, suggesting the game will likely take place during that period of Greek history. The logo for the game also features what looks like a Corinthian helmet, a primary piece of protective headgear worn by Greek soldiers during that era.

| The new Google Lens has come to the Sony Xperia XZ2 and XZ2 Compact Posted: 31 May 2018 02:30 PM PDT  Google Lens is expanding to more devices' native camera apps, including the Sony Xperia XZ2 and XZ2 Compact, as spotted by AndroidPolice. To activate the integration, users will only need to update their Google app in the Play Store. The upgraded Google Lens, which is the company's artificial intelligence platform for parsing the real world, was first announced back in 2017. Google then announced at its annual I/O developer conference earlier this month that Lens would be integrated directly into the smartphone camera on Google-made devices and top-tier Android handsets, instead of just living inside Google Photos. The company said at the time that the platform was coming to 10 different Android devices initially, but did not specify... |
| Google’s in-house incubator made a Waze-like app for the New York City subway Posted: 31 May 2018 01:17 PM PDT  Have you ever used New York City's decrepit subway system and marveled that its speeds that are slower now than they were in the 1950s? Or how a commute of a few miles can easily stretch into hours, making a trip between Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan turn into a nightmare? It's gotten so bad and outdated compared to other modern cities that Google's in-house startup incubator Area 120 is proposing to intervene with a new app. The app, called Pigeon, is live on Apple's App Store, but access is still limited to those with an invitation code. Its developers say the app can help commuters choose routes that avoid delays and crowds other users report. Google Maps and the MTA's own website already provide information on what trains aren't... |
| Alibaba made a driverless robot that runs 9 mph to deliver packages Posted: 31 May 2018 12:00 PM PDT  Alibaba has just announced a couple of tech innovations that hint at a future with even more delivery conveniences. The company showed off a driverless delivery robot that will help ship goods purchased online to customers more conveniently and a storage locker with facial recognition that promises to keep food warm. The robot is called the G Plus, and it's currently being road-tested at Alibaba's headquarters in Hangzhou, a major city located in eastern China. The G Plus robot can carry multiple packages of different sizes, and it has extended stamina to travel longer distances compared to its predecessors. The G Plus' loading box can change sizes depending on the package it needs to deliver, and Alibaba says the robot can also deliver... |
| Microsoft’s Windows shakeup continues internally Posted: 31 May 2018 11:39 AM PDT  Microsoft announced a significant reorganization of its Windows business back in March. Windows chief Terry Myerson is departing the company in the summer, and Microsoft is slicing Windows into two teams. The new division that's responsible for "Experiences & Devices," is now being refined even further in more changes at Microsoft this week. Sources familiar with Microsoft's plans tell The Verge that Joe Belfiore will now be responsible for the Windows Insider testers program (led by Dona Sarkar), Microsoft's web platform work (Edge), partner applications, and Microsoft's design work. The organizational changes mean that Joe Belfiore, who has been the face of Windows Phone in the past, is taking on more of the important consumer-facing... |
| Now Russia wants Zuckerberg to testify for them, too Posted: 31 May 2018 11:24 AM PDT  Lawmakers in Russia want Mark Zuckerberg to testify before them, as well. The Moscow Times reports that during Wednesday's session of the upper house of the Russian Parliament, a senator proposed summoning Zuckerberg. In response, Speaker Valentina Matviyenko said that she would "issue an order," and that they would "organize his arrival." Zuckerberg testified before the European Parliament two weeks ago, and before two separate Congressional committees in the US last month. The American legislators repeatedly brought up the specter of Russian influence in the 2016 election through Facebook and other social media. Russian senators want Zuckerberg to testify on topics such as information security, privacy, and the "dissemination of... |
| Ticketfly takes its websites offline as it scrambles to recover from hack Posted: 31 May 2018 11:06 AM PDT  Events ticketing company Ticketfly has been compromised by a digital attack, according to an announcement today on Twitter. "Following recent site issues," the statement reads, "we determined that Ticketfly has been the target of a cyber incident. To protect our clients and fans, and to secure the website and related data, we have temporarily taken all Ticketfly systems offline." Billboard says users began noticing site defacement yesterday around 9PM PST. The hacker, who called themselves IsHaKdZ, replaced Ticketfly's website with a picture of Guy Fawkes and a warning that read "Your Security Down im Not Sorry." The hacker also left a yandex.com email account and cautioned that they had access to a database titled "backstage," which... |
| Here’s what Earth looks like from the US’s most advanced weather satellite Posted: 31 May 2018 10:36 AM PDT  Almost three months after launching into space, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) latest weather satellite, called GOES-17, sent us its first official images of our planet. The incredible views, which were captured on May 20th and made public today, were taken even as the satellite is having some issues with one of its instruments. GOES-17 went up to work with GOES-16, another NOAA weather satellite that was launched in 2016. The two probes, which are part of the so-called GOES-R series, are able to scan most of the Western Hemisphere from the coast of Africa all the way to New Zealand. Their observations from 22,300 miles (almost 36,000 kilometers) above Earth are key to monitor hurricanes, droughts,... |
| Cryptocurrency mining rigs are just PCs — so why won’t Stripe let you sell them? Posted: 31 May 2018 10:15 AM PDT  At the end of 2017, and the height of the cryptocurrency craze, Noah Katz decided to start a mining rig company called Artesian Future Technology. His plan was simple: he would make custom computers for people who didn't have the time or know-how to do so on their own, but wanted to enter the wildly volatile field of cryptocurrency mining. However Katz's offering quickly reached stratospheric prices: the basic computer he sold cost $1,899, but customers could fill it with GPUs sometimes costing upward of $47,990. These machines were listed on Katz's website and eBay, where they were explicitly labeled as mining rigs. Those machines would then mine alternative cryptocurrencies, and in theory at least, eventually pay for themselves. Katz's... |
| Kayak’s Trip Huddle helps make group trip planning less of a headache Posted: 31 May 2018 10:12 AM PDT  Kayak has introduced a new tool intended to take away some of the frustration of planning group travel. Called Kayak Trip Huddle, the feature allows people to collaboratively decide on major decisions of a group trip, such as where to stay and what destinations to hit up. A group leader will have to start the process in order to start planning via Trip Huddle, which simply involves logging in and giving the trip a name. Once created, they can invite other members via a shareable link or email, and then start creating parameters for everyone to vote on. Think of it like a Doodle scheduling service, but for the full trip-planning process. The leader can add destinations, dates of travel, and ideas for accommodations, which can all then be... |
