| Amazon launches Echo and Alexa in Mexico Posted: 07 Nov 2018 06:34 PM PST  Amazon has brought its Alexa voice assistant and a range of compatible Echo devices to Mexico. The Echo, Echo Dot, Echo Plus, Echo Spot, and Amazon Smart Plug are all available to pre-order today, and shipping will start next week. The company is also bringing Amazon Music Unlimited and Prime Music to Mexico today, right in time for people to ask their new Echo devices to play music. Amazon launched Alexa in Spain last month, but the company says the voice assistant has now been updated to work with Mexican Spanish and makes use of local information. Amazon is the last major company to arrive in this market —Apple started selling the HomePod in Spain and Mexico last month, while the Google Home and Home Mini were released in the two... |
| MoviePass is staffed by dogs now, apparently Posted: 07 Nov 2018 04:47 PM PST  It's been a grim year for MoviePass, the endlessly embattled movie subscription service. The company, which built a base of reportedly more than 3 million subscribers with a deal that let users watch a movie a day in theaters for under $10 a month, has been losing money at a prodigious rate. Over the course of 2018, it repeatedly retooled its basic subscription, forced annual subscribers onto a monthly plan, and dealt with plummeting stock prices after repeated reports that it was out of funds. Most recently, parent company Helios and Matheson — which is facing a class-action lawsuit from its shareholders and a fraud investigation — spun MoviePass off into a separate company, in an apparent attempt to dissociate itself from the toxic... |
| Boeing issues safety bulletin on 737 Max aircraft following Lion Air crash Posted: 07 Nov 2018 03:13 PM PST  Following the October 29th Lion Air plane crash in Indonesia which killed all aboard, Boeing has issued a safety warning for erroneous readings on the sensors of its 737 Max aircraft. The Operations Manual Bulletin directs all airlines operating the Boeing 737 Max to follow "existing flight crew procedures to address circumstances where there is erroneous input from an AOA sensor." AOA, or Angle of Attack, refers to the angle at which the oncoming flow of wind hits the airplane or its wings. Though the exact cause of the crash is unclear at the moment, investigators suspect that a software glitch or misinterpretation by pilots may have contributed to the accident, reports The Wall Street Journal.

| Samsung reveals key specs for its upcoming foldable smartphone Posted: 07 Nov 2018 03:11 PM PST  Samsung took the wraps off its new Infinity Flex Display device this morning, the first foldable hybrid gadget from the company that transforms from a phone into a tablet. Samsung says it plans to go into mass production for just the display in the "matter of months," but we don't really know much of anything about it beyond the brief glimpse we got onstage today. It's a total mystery what it will cost, and we know very little about how the software will really function and just how many different display orientations it supports. At a session this afternoon at its developer conference, Samsung did reveal some new information about the planned device, including pixel density, screen size, and aspect ratio in both the folded and unfolded... |
| The Free Music Archive is closing this month Posted: 07 Nov 2018 03:07 PM PST  The Free Music Archive was founded in 2009, the year Barack Obama was inaugurated as this country's first black president. As a project directed by the legendary Jersey City radio station WFMU, it was to be a "library of high-quality, legal audio downloads," a place where artists could share their music and listeners could enjoy it for free. Now, following a funding shortage, the FMA plans to close sometime this month. "The future is uncertain, has been my mantra lately," says Cheyenne Hohman, who's been the director of the Free Music Archive since 2014. The shutdown date was initially the 9th, but has since been pushed back to November 16th because the FMA is in early talks with four different organizations that are interested in... |
| T-Mobile’s $300 trade-in deal for the OnePlus 6T ends November 8th Posted: 07 Nov 2018 02:30 PM PST  Here's just a short PSA for people interested in buying the OnePlus 6T on T-Mobile: the carrier's $300 trade-in promotion is ending tomorrow. There will no doubt be other trade offers down the line, but the one announced back at the phone's keynote was particularly generous; T-Mobile will give you $300 for any previous OnePlus handset to put towards the 6T. There's also a long list of other phones that are eligible for the $300 discount. The $300 is applied over 24 months when you buy the OnePlus 6 with a monthly payment plan; you can't get the $300 and then just pay the rest immediately to buy the 6T outright. The credits will begin two billing cycles after you take home the 6T. Here's the full list of phones T-Mobile will accept:

| Apple updates iMovie, GarageBand, iWork, and Clips as new devices launch Posted: 07 Nov 2018 01:48 PM PST  Now that Apple's full fall hardware lineup is officially available, the company has announced a slew of updates for its video creation and productivity apps. First, a new iMovie update will let users connect an external display to an iPad or iPhone, which allows screen mirroring or creating a full-screen preview of what you're editing. (Full-screen previews require an iPhone 7 or newer, sixth-generation iPad or newer, or a 2017 iPad Pro or newer.) In addition, there's also support for uncompressed 4K video output on the third-generation 11-inch iPad Pro and 12.9-inch iPad Pro. For iMovie on desktop, there's now a new export option called "Prepare for Facebook." This will export a Facebook-compatible video file that you can then manually... |
| Apple may have a less wasteful method of replacing the new MacBook Air’s battery Posted: 07 Nov 2018 01:37 PM PST  Apple has developed a way to replace the new MacBook Air's battery without swapping out the entire top of the keyboard, MacRumors reports based on Apple's internal service guide for the device. That's slightly more environmentally friendly than the situation on other modern MacBooks, which have so much glue inside the frame that the entire thing would have to be replaced in the event that the old battery needed to be changed. Apple will now give Genius workers and authorized service providers the tools needed to remove the glue from the battery, without affecting anything else. After removal, the workers will add glue strips to attach a new battery. According to the same service guide MacRumors saw, technicians will also be able to... |
| Ford buys e-scooter company Spin for $40 million Posted: 07 Nov 2018 01:22 PM PST  Ford is buying dockless electric scooter company Spin for $40 million, according to Axios. The acquisition cost roughly what Spin was valued at after its Series A funding last year. The deal isn't the first time Ford's entered the e-scooter market; the company started conducting a test run of scooter rentals at Purdue University under the name "Jelly" last month. Ford has also been exploring new mobility solutions since it acquired San Francisco-based shuttle service Chariot in 2016, and it's been running a docked bicycle-sharing program in the Bay Area called Ford GoBikes since 2013. Ironically, Motivate, the bike-sharing company Ford partnered with to launch GoBikes, has since been acquired by Lyft, which is also getting into the... |
| Samsung will put notches on its future phones Posted: 07 Nov 2018 12:57 PM PST  Samsung has stood as the major holdout in a year when seemingly every other smartphone maker moved to releasing displays with a notch cutout. But at the company's developer conference today, Samsung confirmed that it's soon going to join in on the trend. A slide during the keynote showed several notch designs that are almost certainly coming to Samsung-branded devices in 2019 and beyond. Hassan Anjum, a director of product marketing at Samsung, took the stage to highlight Samsung's previous breakthroughs in reducing bezels and maximizing display size year after year. "We're going to keep going. The bezels are going to shrink even further," Anjum said. "We're going to push the limits with our new lineup: the Infinity U, V, and O... |
