| The most trusted source of Apple rumors says 2019 iPhones will have these features Posted: 17 Feb 2019 06:39 PM PST  Tech reporters never fully trust a rumor, but some rumors have more credibility than others — and few have a track record for pegging Apple releases like analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who first revealed the screen sizes and features of last year's iPhones, among other things. Now, Kuo has released a new analyst note (via 9to5Mac and MacRumors) with his predictions across Apple's entire lineup of devices, and he's corroborating reports that the Cupertino company will release three iPhones in 2019 as well — including one with a triple-camera system. While Kuo predicts that the phones will have the same screen sizes and even the same notches — and that the 6.1-inch iPhone XR followup will still use a cheaper LCD, rather than OLED screen — he adds... |
| Apple releasing ‘all-new’ 16-inch MacBook Pro and 32-inch 6K monitor this year, says report Posted: 17 Feb 2019 06:39 PM PST  Apple is planning an 'all-new' MacBook Pro design for this year, well-connected analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has said in a research note obtained by MacRumors. The lineup is reportedly led by a model with a screen of between 16 and 16.5 inches, which would make it the biggest screen in a Mac notebook since the 17-inch models stopped being sold in 2012. Kuo says the lineup may also include a 13-inch model with support for 32GB of RAM; right now only the 15-inch MacBook Pro can be configured with that amount of memory. An all-new design would be a little surprising, since Apple only released the first Touch Bar models in late 2016, more than four years after the previous Retina display models were introduced. On the other hand, this design hasn't... |
| Here’s how a ‘90s app made those transforming Animorphs book covers Posted: 17 Feb 2019 06:04 PM PST  Today, I learned The Verge has never written a single post that so much as mentions Animorphs. This is a travesty that will now end. Because today is also the day I am sharing this delightful video from YouTube's retro computing and gaming enthusiast LGR, which vividly shows how an exceptionally specialized piece of early '90s editing software — Elastic Reality — was used to morph kids into animals, creating the eye-popping cover art for those kid thrillers back in the day. To be sure, you could have learned that one David Mattingly was the artist behind those covers if you ever stumbled upon this excellent Vice interview from 2015, where he describes the software, his technique, and how he lucked into the job. But it's another thing... |
| Facebook can no longer govern itself, UK lawmakers say Posted: 17 Feb 2019 04:02 PM PST  Facebook should no longer be allowed to govern itself and it's time for the government to step in as the cop on the beat, according to a new parliamentary report released tonight by the United Kingdom. The Digital, Culture, Media and Sport select committee of the UK Parliament has published its final report after more than 18 months of investigation into Facebook and its privacy practices. Members of Parliament (MPs) have requested that social media companies be required to remove "harmful" or "illegal" content on their platforms and be held liable for it according to a compulsory code of ethics, a policy that has been hotly contested in the US. This new report lays the groundwork for further legislation that could officially codify... |
| Apple hires failed smart lock startup CEO to help build home products Posted: 17 Feb 2019 03:38 PM PST  He tried to sell a $700 smart lock. His startup went belly-up, leaving employees and contractors in the cold. But now, he's working for Apple — and leading a new smart home initiative to boot, according to a CNBC report. To be fair, Sam Jadallah's smart lock company Otto did produce exactly the kind of gadget we've come to expect from Apple: a meticulously engineered device that smacks of luxury, yet with a minimalist external design that doesn't draw too much attention to itself. And at Apple, he won't have to worry about finding investors to keep his ideas afloat. (In 2018, Jadallah blamed the death of Otto on a mystery buyer who pulled out at the last moment.) But the interesting part of this story isn't who Apple has... |
| Samsung quits making new Blu-ray players Posted: 17 Feb 2019 02:04 PM PST  Slowly but surely, spinning discs are dying out, and Samsung just put another nail in their coffin. The company told Forbes that it's done producing 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray players — and CNET was able to confirm that Samsung is halting production on at least some of its 1080p Blu-ray players as well. "Samsung will no longer introduce new Blu-ray or 4K Blu-ray player models in the US market," a Samsung spokesperson told CNET. Technically, there's still the possibility that Samsung may continue to produce its existing Blu-ray players for months or years to come — the company still has quite a few models on sale — or introduce new ones in specific countries outside the US. We've asked Samsung to clarify. But practically speaking, Samsung may... |
| Posted: 17 Feb 2019 12:34 PM PST  Social media is increasingly the internet: Facebook was founded in 2004, and it ate the web as we knew it then — a collection of microsites and curiosities run by so many individual proprietors, individually. It used to be that personalization was what you did to your site; now it's found in the ads you're served. Peach — the microblogging platform— was seemingly designed against those circumscribed possibilities, as an antidote to the weird world-eating dominion of the Twitters and Facebooks and Instagrams of the universe. Its whole purpose was to bring people back to the early days of online, when the only limits were in what you could code. To describe it in a line: Peach is an online diary that you can share with your friends, like... |
| LG says it isn’t launching a folding phone Posted: 17 Feb 2019 10:21 AM PST  The first wave of folding phone announcements is nigh, with Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi and others expected to show devices this month. But the one company I'd expect to join them — LG — says it'll be sitting this one out. Though LG is the same company that's been wowing us with rollable TVs, it just told reporters that it's "too early" to produce a folding phone. Here's what LG Electronics mobile and TV boss Brian Kwon said during a press conference in Seoul, as reported by The Korea Times:

| Use these tools to help visualize the horror of rising sea levels Posted: 17 Feb 2019 09:00 AM PST  By now, everyone knows: the climate is changing, sea levels are rising, and the crises are likely to happen sooner than expected. Still, it's one thing to know, and another thing to really see these potential disasters. Luckily (or unluckily), there's no lack of tools to help the apathetic develop a visceral sense of what could be at stake. First, Information Is Beautiful has used data from NASA, Sea Level Explorer, and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to create the aptly named "When Sea Levels Attack," which shows how many years are left until major cities are underwater. Next, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration offers a tool that helps visualize... |
| Pikuniku is a weird and whimsical adventure for the Switch Posted: 17 Feb 2019 08:00 AM PST  It can be difficult to find time to finish a video game, especially if you only have a few hours a week to play. In our biweekly column Short Play we suggest video games that can be started and finished in a weekend. Pikuniku is hard to describe. Despite its simple, colorful aesthetic, there are a number of complex and subtle choices to how the game is structured, and how it plays that make it hard to categorize. It's often an adventure game with platforming controls like Night in the Woods, while at other times it's more of a puzzle platformer like Semblance. But the game's charm comes from how earnestly silly it is, not just in its writing, but also in its gameplay. In Pikuniku you control what looks like a red oval with legs. They... |
