| Why Hurricane Florence is so intense for a storm this far north Posted: 10 Sep 2018 06:19 PM PDT  Hurricane Florence is whirling off the East Coast of the US with winds reaching 140 miles per hour. Already, mandatory evacuations are planned for communities lining the coast from South Carolina to Virginia, according to CNN. The storm is expected to only get stronger, the National Hurricane Center said in its latest update at 5PM ET: "Florence is expected to be an extremely dangerous major hurricane through Thursday." That's unusual, for a storm to be so intense so far north, says Marshall Shepherd, director of the University of Georgia's atmospheric sciences program and former president of the American Meteorological Society. Warm water feeds a... |
| Tesla is bringing back its wireless smartphone charger at a discount Posted: 10 Sep 2018 05:07 PM PDT  Tesla has started informing customers that its wireless smartphone charger, which quickly went out of stock late last month, will be returning to its online store at a roughly $15 discount, with the electric car maker citing a larger manufacturing quantity as the reason for the price drop. Owners of the charger have been posting Tesla's email regarding the charger on Twitter, although the company has yet to officially confirm it. The device originally went on sale through Tesla's website in late August at $65, featuring a sleek and Apple-like design in white or black, a 6,000 mAh battery for charging, and 5W of output. Those specs aren't stellar, considering you can get larger capacity chargers with twice the rate of charging output for... |
| Tesla’s keyless entry vulnerable to spoofing attack, researchers find Posted: 10 Sep 2018 02:05 PM PDT  Last week's Tesla security update may have been more urgent than the company let on. Researchers at KU Leuven have figured out a way to spoof Tesla's key fob system, as first reported by Wired. The result would let an attacker steal a Tesla simply by walking past the owner and cloning his key. The attack is particularly significant because Tesla pioneered the keyless entry concept, which has since spread to most luxury cars. This particular attack seems to have only worked on Model S units shipped before June, and in an update last week, Tesla pushed out an update that strengthened the encryption for the remaining vehicles. More importantly, the company added the option to require a PIN password before the car will start, effectively... |
| SoundCloud’s new personalized playlist is serving up unlicensed mashups Posted: 10 Sep 2018 01:10 PM PDT  SoundCloud has announced a new personalized playlist for users called SoundCloud Weekly. Updated every Monday, the playlist appears at the top of your SoundCloud account under the "Discover" tab. Like Spotify's Discover Weekly, which has been around for three years, SoundCloud Weekly should reflect your listening habits and serve up 30 tracks and DJ mixes that fit what you've played recently. Aside from plays, SoundCloud also takes into account the tracks you like and share when it decides what to put on the playlist. A weekly playlist is an obvious, if not late, step for SoundCloud, which has been trying to regain footing under the eye of new CEO Kerry Trainor since last summer. Under Trainor's direction, SoundCloud has seen several... |
| Vertical Aerospace makes ‘flying cars’ with more grounded aspirations Posted: 10 Sep 2018 12:31 PM PDT  Vertical Aerospace is a British startup that has built and flown a fully electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. As strange as it may seem, that doesn't make them particularly unique in the year 2018; there is a surfeit of drone-helicopter hybrids being tested around the globe. What does make Vertical standout is the company's more realistic approach to the utility of so-called "flying cars." The pilotless demonstrator aircraft weighs 750 kg (or around 1,600 pounds) and flew across Cotswold Airport in Gloucestershire earlier this summer as part of the company's first flight tests. Vertical Aerospace says it aims to... |
| New leaks suggest Apple’s new iPhones will support dual SIM cards Posted: 10 Sep 2018 11:13 AM PDT  The new iPhones Apple will announce on Wednesday may have dual SIM card support, according to an image posted on China Mobile's Facebook page on September 6th. We already saw leaks of a dual SIM card tray in a new Apple device, but the post from a company's social media account feels like more legitimate confirmation, as spotted by GSMArena. The image is an illustration of an apple (the fruit) with two SIM cards poking into it. The large text on the top says, "New Apple with dual SIM?" and the smaller text around the apple lists benefits of having two SIM cards like network use and data. Besides the tongue-in-cheek illustration, there's also a leaked ad from China Telecom picturing a new iPhone... |
| Samsung’s SmartThings Tracker uses LTE to find your misplaced items Posted: 10 Sep 2018 10:05 AM PDT  Samsung is releasing a SmartThings tracker that's powered by LTE-M (instead of Bluetooth) to help you find stuff. The cellular network allows it to be used for real-time location tracking for your pets and kids as well as misplaced items. The power button on the tracker, when pressed twice, will send its location through the SmartThings app, and there's also an option to send an SOS. The tracker is compatible with other Samsung SmartThings devices so it can be used in conjunction with other smart home products like lights, thermostats, and security cameras. For example, you can use the tracker as an arrival sensor, which will trigger lights to turn on when the device is in range. You can also use it for geofencing areas that will... |
| Outlaw King is a purposeful but empty bid for Netflix’s filmmaking legitimacy Posted: 10 Sep 2018 09:25 AM PDT  Welcome to Cheat Sheet, our brief breakdown-style reviews of festival films, VR previews, and other special event releases. This review comes from the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival. Netflix is currently fighting a battle on at least three fronts. Even in the wake of a huge number of freshly launched competitors, the streaming giant has a serious advantage in the war to carve out and retain a sizable paying audience. Its owners got into the streaming business early, achieved a high rate of public awareness, and built a strong user base. Its second front — producing and owning its own memorable, original content to secure its success, irrespective of the whims of studio licensing departments — has also been ambitious and largely... |
| Sphero’s new robot has a programmable LED display and infrared sensors Posted: 10 Sep 2018 09:14 AM PDT  Sphero has announced another rolling ball robot called the Sphero Bolt. The Sphero Bolt follows in the company's ethos of having a commitment to education-based products, but it comes with some upgrades that give it more capabilities than the original Sphero and Sphero Spark+. The biggest and most noticeable difference with the Sphero Bolt is that it comes with an animated and programmable 8 x 8 LED screen so it can show a winking smiling face when a task has been completed or an arrow for the direction it's moving in. The Bolt also sports four infrared sensors, meaning there's an opportunity for these little robots to communicate with each other. This is the first time Sphero has created the ability... |
| Qualcomm finally has a new chip for the next generation of Android smartwatches Posted: 10 Sep 2018 09:10 AM PDT  It's been two and a half years since Qualcomm last released a major new smartwatch chip, and in the time since, Android smartwatches have languished. But in the coming months, they could finally start seeing some meaningful improvements: Qualcomm is releasing a new processor for watches, called the Snapdragon Wear 3100, that's meant to extend battery life, enhance always-on displays, and offer more versatility when it comes to sports devices and fitness sensors. The new chip's key feature is the addition of a secondary low-power processor, which is supposed to handle most of the work when a smartwatch isn't in use. This co-processor will power a watch's sensors and ambient display, doing so while using up to 20 times less energy than the... |
