| There might be poop in the water you’re swimming in so please don’t swallow it, CDC says Posted: 29 Jun 2018 04:39 PM PDT  Every summer, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention turns its attention to the disgusting state of American swimming holes — and their latest investigation traced thousands of infections back to lakes, rivers, and the ocean. A team of researchers analyzed 140 outbreaks that made nearly 5,000 people sick, and even killed two swimmers between 2000 and 2014. Public parks and beaches accounted for roughly two-thirds of the outbreaks, according to the CDC's latest Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. And the majority of those outbreaks occurred over the summer months — right when the water is most inviting. The most common infections the CDC turned up came from swallowing... |
| California man arrested for threatening to kill FCC Chairman Ajit Pai’s family over net neutrality Posted: 29 Jun 2018 03:18 PM PDT  A 33-year-old resident of Norwalk, California was arrested today for sending threatening emails to Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai last year, according to the US Department of Justice. The threats, sent by an individual named Makara Man, were made primarily in the second of three messages sent to Pai's official FCC email accounts in late December, just days after the FCC voted to repeal net neutrality protections. The first email allegedly accused Pai of causing the suicide of a teenager through his actions that led to the net neutrality vote. The second email contained an explicit threat against members of Pai's family, as well as a listing of three locations in and around Arlington, Virginia where Pai is said to... |
| On Scorpion, Drake rages against the internet Posted: 29 Jun 2018 02:24 PM PDT  The internet fame machine pumps out music stars on the regular — Justin Bieber, Post Malone, Cardi B — but few truly embody the internet in the way that Drake does. The man is a walking meme; our mockery or admiration of the Toronto rapper is forever buoyed to the top of our feeds. Drake is the internet — and he hates it. For stans, this is nothing new: perennial Sad Boy that he is, Drake has always loved talking (and rapping, and singing) about how much technology and the internet only serves to alienate us from each other. It always feels a little cheesy when Drake spits it, but he can get away with it, because he usually taps into something real. If nothing else, his confessions about how technology affects his relationships are messy... |
| T-Mobile is rolling out support for the next-gen texting standard backed by Google Posted: 29 Jun 2018 01:55 PM PDT  T-Mobile has started rolling out support for the RCS Universal profile — a new messaging standard that's supposed to make traditional texting look a bit more like chatting in a modern messaging app, complete with read receipts, typing indicators, and more. The rollout, spotted by Android Police, is starting with Samsung's Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge and is supposed to come to more Android devices later in the year. There are a million qualifiers here around how and when everyone will really get to use this, but this is still an important step toward improving the basic texting experience on Android. RCS messaging has been supported between T-Mobile customers for three years now, but it isn't until now that T-Mobile has adopted "Universal" RCS.... |
| Instagram is testing a persistent Stories bar that follows you down the feed Posted: 29 Jun 2018 01:44 PM PDT  When I opened Instagram on my Pixel 2 XL moments ago, I noticed something different: the Stories bar remained visible as I scrolled down my main feed. Usually it stays at the top and doesn't follow you down, but clearly the company is testing a more persistent, sticky approach to keeping Stories in front of you at all times. That seems awfully annoying to me, but some might find it convenient. To this point, I think Instagram has developed and built onto Stories very well. They're fun. I post and watch often. But between the obnoxious neon-orange IGTV notifications in the main app that I can't turn off and now this, I'm not thrilled. Let people use the app how they want. I understand there's a constant push for greater usage and better... |
| Comcast is experiencing a nationwide outage Posted: 29 Jun 2018 12:12 PM PDT  Comcast is currently experiencing a nationwide outage in the US, which explains why users on social media have been complaining that they were unable to connect to platforms like Sony's PlayStation, Netflix, and Microsoft's Xbox Live. Essentially, the outage may be causing problems for anyone using Xfinity as an ISP, regardless of what products, apps, or services they're trying to access. According to Down Detector, there have been over 11,000 reports of Comcast outages since 12:30PM ET. Comcast confirmed the outage on Twitter, with a spokesperson saying that the company is "working to restore service." Microsoft has updated its status page to indicate that Xbox Live members may be experiencing connection problems. Comcast confirmed on... |
| Your kids will soon be able to listen to Spotify through their Echo Dot Kids Edition Posted: 29 Jun 2018 12:03 PM PDT  Parents no longer have to limit their kids to Amazon or iHeartRadio's music catalogs on their Echo Dot Kids Edition. TechCrunch reports today that Amazon will soon let parents pair their kids' devices with their Spotify account, and Spotify will automatically filter out explicit language. Parents can turn that option off in Amazon's FreeTime dashboard. Amazon is also adding new Disney content, like character alarms and updated "Disney Dailies," which come from a skill that lets kids hear jokes and other content from recognizable characters. All of this will likely be appreciated by parents, especially those who add Spotify tracks to a playlist for their kids. They'll now be able to play their favorite music without needing an adult. The... |

| Tinder finally encrypted everyone’s photos Posted: 29 Jun 2018 11:32 AM PDT  Tinder's parent company Match Group publicly announced today, in a letter to Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR), that it is now encrypting photos sent between Tinder's servers and its app. The changes were implemented in February, following the public disclosure of an attack that could have let hackers view people's profile pictures and swipe actions. Wyden wrote a letter to Tinder back in February requesting that the company encrypt photos. It had apparently already done so (the letter says they implemented the feature on February 4th), but it waited to write back to Wyden until it also adjusted a separate security feature that makes all swipe data the same size. The size of the swipe data was used by security researchers to differentiate actions... |
| The Vivo Nex S’s pop-up selfie camera is making unwanted appearances Posted: 29 Jun 2018 10:43 AM PDT  The Vivo Nex S smartphone caused a stir for doing away with bezels and notches in favor of a pop-up selfie camera that's hidden in the top edge of the phone. Now users in China who have gotten their hands on the Vivo Nex S say the selfie camera is making surprise appearances when they're casually browsing the web or other apps, and the effect is creepy. As spotted by Abacus, a user on Weibo took a video of the selfie camera rolling out of a Vivo Nex S when you open a chat window in the secure messaging app Telegram. The video zooms in on the popped up camera at the exact time, suggesting that the user had encountered this weird surprise before and was recreating it for the video. |
