| Apple pulls watchOS 5.1 update after reports of bricked devices Posted: 30 Oct 2018 07:37 PM PDT  Apple released watchOS 5.1 earlier today, but has temporarily removed it from availability after users reported that their watches were rendered unusable by attempting to install the update. 9to5Mac's Guilherme Rambo experienced the issue, as well as several MacRumors readers. Serious issues with the Apple Watch can be more complicated to resolve than with iPhones or other devices, because there's no way to plug the device into a computer and reinstall the software yourself. The only recourse tends to be contacting Apple for service. The issue seems limited to the brand new Apple Watch Series 4, too, which is likely to compound frustration for affected users. watchOS 5.1 includes the 70-plus new emoji that came with iOS 12.1 today, as... |
| Facebook has started banning accounts affiliated with far-right group the Proud Boys Posted: 30 Oct 2018 05:27 PM PDT  Facebook has started banning both individual accounts and pages, as well as associated groups, that are affiliated with the far-right extremist group the Proud Boys. The news was first reported today by Business Insider, which noted that members of the Proud Boys and adjacent online communities had begun complaining about the takedowns on Twitter. The removals come in response to an act of violence in New York City earlier this month, in which members of the Proud Boys assaulted anti-fascist protestors outside a Republican club in Manhattan where Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes, also an original co-founder of Vice Media, was speaking. Facebook confirmed to The Verge that it was banning Proud Boys members and affiliated groups and pages... |
| Alphabet executive named in NYT sexual misconduct exposé resigns Posted: 30 Oct 2018 04:31 PM PDT  An executive at Google parent company Alphabet's X division has resigned after being named in a high-profile New York Times investigation into the company's mishandling of sexual harassment claims, according to Axios. The executive, Rich DeVaul, held the title of "Director of Rapid Evaluation and Mad Science" at X, formerly known as Google X and the division responsible for Alphabet's experimental "moonshots" projects like self-driving car unit Waymo and the Google Glass wearable headset. He did not receive an exit package of any sort, Axios reports. The initial investigation primarily centered on Android co-founder Andy Rubin, who an employee accused of sexual assault in 2013. After Google investigated the claims and found them to be... |
| Chinese spies hacked aerospace companies for years, Justice Department says Posted: 30 Oct 2018 02:32 PM PDT  A group of Chinese spies worked for years to hack aerospace companies and steal aircraft technology secrets, the Justice Department said today, as it announced the indictment of 10 people accused of stealing companies' confidential information. According to the department, Chinese intelligence officers and their operatives worked to steal the technology behind a turbofan engine used in commercial airliners. The scheme allegedly went on from at least early 2010 until May 2015, and targeted an unnamed French aerospace company that was working on the engine with a US company. Chinese intelligence officers allegedly hacked the French company, as well as aerospace companies in several states and the United Kingdom.... |
| Google’s 2018 Halloween Doodle is also its first multiplayer game Posted: 30 Oct 2018 02:28 PM PDT  The world's biggest search engine is getting into the Halloween spirit today with a special playable Google Doodle. While Google has busted out game Doodles in the past (including for Halloween 2016), this is the first time the information giant has made a multiplayer game that players can jump into with other people online. Think of it as the opposite of Slither.io. The rules of Trick-or-Treat: The Great Ghoul Duel are simple. You play a cute apparition picking up "spirits" and bringing them back to your base for points. All non-deposited spirits will trail behind you, like a tail. The trick is that anybody who touches your tail can steal your unbanked spirits — but you can steal other people's spirits, too. As you score points, spirits... |
| Waymo gets the green light to test fully driverless cars in California Posted: 30 Oct 2018 02:11 PM PDT  Waymo, the self-driving unit of Google parent Alphabet, has been granted permission to operate fully driverless cars without human drivers behind the steering wheel on public roads in California. The company is the first to receive a driverless permit in the state. Waymo will restrict its driverless test cars to the neighborhoods of Mountain View, Sunnyvale, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, and Palo Alto. "We know this area well," the company said in a statement, noting it includes its own headquarters (housed within Google's X lab) as well as Alphabet's main campus. If it seeks to expand its testing, Waymo says it will notify the new communities first and obtain permission from the DMV. |
| Facebook’s growth continues to slow down Posted: 30 Oct 2018 01:34 PM PDT  The era of Facebook's nonstop growth has long since come to an end. Although the company is far from the point at which it might start to shrink, its growth in the US and Canada, as well as Europe, has stopped entirely and appears to occasionally decline. In its 2018 third quarter earnings report out today, the social network confirmed that the number of daily active users in US and Canada has remained flat at 185 million, while the number of European users has slipped from 279 million to 278 million. The latter may be a direct result of recent European privacy regulations, namely GDPR, which initially caused Facebook to lose 1 million monthly active users after it went into effect in May. Overall, the company continues to grow thanks... |
| Apple adds an emoji for the drunk weirdo at the bar Posted: 30 Oct 2018 01:32 PM PDT  An iOS update usually means more emoji, and iOS 12.1 is no different. As noted by Emojipedia, if you account for all the skin and gender variations, there are 158 new tiny icons coming to an iPhone near you, including lettuce, a badger, and a disembodied leg. That's cool — except for emoji No. 5 on that list, "Face With Uneven Eyes and Wavy Mouth aka 'Woozy Face.'" Woozy Face is just a polite way of saying "my dude has some wicked drunk face," which, really, is the only way to interpret this ding-dong: At 2AM, this is the emoji that will slide up next to you, try to make conversation, and promptly spill a beer in your hair. This emoji will puke in your cab and make you cover the cleaning fee because they "just don't... |
| It costs $649 to repair the new iPad Pro without AppleCare+ Posted: 30 Oct 2018 01:32 PM PDT  Apple's newest iPad Pro, announced today in New York, is one of the most expensive tablets the company has ever made. The cheapest option starts at $799 for the 64GB 11-inch iPad Pro, and it can run all the way up to a whopping $1,899 for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro with LTE. That makes the new iPads also the most expensive to repair, if you're out of warranty and don't have AppleCare+, Apple's extended warranty program. Apple's support page for iPad repairs lists the fees to repair each tablet if it's out of warranty. AppleCare+, which costs $129 for a two-year iPad Pro warranty, covers two incidents of accidental damage. But if you let your complimentary limited warranty run out after 90 days, and you damage your new 12.9-inch iPad Pro... |
| Apple updates Shortcuts with actions for weather, alarms, and timers Posted: 30 Oct 2018 01:15 PM PDT  Apple just updated its Shortcuts app, adding a weather integration, new measurement conversions, and better iCloud sharing, among other features. Now, Shortcuts lets you check upcoming weather forecasts with the "Get Current Weather" and "Get Weather Forecast" actions that are available for you to add to any custom shortcut. You can also create an alarm, toggle an alarm, and start a timer. Previously, the app had some shortcuts that you could try to use as timers (like the Laundry Timer Shortcut, which was effectively a countdown clock). But now, you can make your own straightforward shortcuts with a direct timer. You can also measure and convert measurements, such as inches to centimeters, more conveniently. There's a "Get Last Import"... |
