EA says it’s ‘aware’ that Anthem is crashing some PS4 consoles Posted: 04 Mar 2019 05:18 PM PST I can't remember the last time I heard of a video game bug so bad that people's consoles just quit in disgust — but some PlayStation 4 owners are reporting that BioWare's shared-world shooter Anthem is completely crashing their consoles. Or worse. While neither Sony nor BioWare owner Electronic Arts has explained why this might be happening — or how widespread the issue might be — EA now says it's officially investigating the problem, and is asking players with the issue to share their crash data, and/or answer a few questions in this forum thread.

Spotify just made a tiny dent in India’s fast-growing market Posted: 04 Mar 2019 05:12 PM PST Spotify now has 1 million users in India counting both free and paid Premium accounts, a representative for the company confirmed to The Verge. The streaming platform quietly arrived in India six days ago amid a legal skirmish over whether the launch would include the catalog from Warner Music's publishing arm. Spotify doesn't usually release these sort of early metrics, so it's impossible to say how this 1 million-user milestone stacks up in comparison to other territory launches. But, that number can be looked at in the grander context of the Indian streaming music market. India's total population is 1.34 billion people, but only about 150 million, or about 11 percent, subscribe to a music streaming service, according to a report by D... |
A comedian’s fight with Barstool Sports shows how Twitter’s copyright system can hurt creators Posted: 04 Mar 2019 04:55 PM PST Earlier today, Los Angeles-based writer and comedian Miel Bredouw claims she received a peculiar message from the general counsel of Barstool Sports, a sports and lifestyle website that caters to young men and is widely known for its aggressive and sometimes offensive approach to cultural commentary. The lawyer, named Mark Marin, was offering Bredouw $2,000 to retract a copyright strike she filed on Twitter. "That's brand new for me," Bredouw, whose short-form videos and other work have often gone viral over the years, told The Verge. "And I have had many many interactions with companies stealing my content." The kerfuffle is over a 36-second long video clip of Bredouw... |
When it comes to conspiracy theories, intuition and stress conspire against you Posted: 04 Mar 2019 04:25 PM PST Conspiracy theories are dusted amid the violent videos, racist comments, and death threats that Facebook moderators face every day. That putrid flood of information can be traumatic, as The Verge's Casey Newton found when he reported on the working conditions endured by moderators in Phoenix, Arizona. Some of the workers bombarded with conspiracy theories told Newton that they were starting to believe the ideas they were seeing. What makes people start believing that the Earth is flat, or that 9/11 wasn't a terrorist attack? And, in this case, did the stressful working conditions have anything to do with it? To answer some of those questions, we turned to Mike Wood. Wood, a psychologist at the University of Winchester, studies... |
Google tries to address complaints of sluggish Pixel 3 with latest update Posted: 04 Mar 2019 02:28 PM PST Google's March security update for Pixel phones also includes some much-needed functional improvements for the Pixel 3 and 3 XL, as noted by Android Police. The company seems to have heard complaints from users about its latest phones becoming sluggish over time — especially the camera app. This month's update promises to improve startup times and general responsiveness for the Pixel 3's camera app. The March update also "improves storage performance on Pixel 3 devices," meaning Google has been able to further optimize read and write speeds for the phone's flash storage. Someone posted screenshots comparing storage performance before and after the update, and it does seem like a nice improvement. Both of those fixes are needed. Some... |
Over 300 million Chinese private messages were left exposed online Posted: 04 Mar 2019 02:07 PM PST Over 300 million private messages from Chinese users on popular messaging apps were sitting exposed on the internet on Saturday, according to security researcher Victor Gevers, who works for the nonprofit organization GDI. The database of 364 million records left users' personal identities searchable to anyone who found the IP address, as reported by the Financial Times. Each record, drawn from apps like WeChat and QQ, also contained personally identifying Chinese citizen ID numbers, photos, addresses, GPS location data, and info on the type of device being used. Worse, the main database also sent the data back to 17 other remote servers, according to Gevers. |
Google disables Android TV photo sharing for all users after account privacy issue Posted: 04 Mar 2019 01:48 PM PST Google has shut down Google Photos sharing to Android TV devices today after a bug was discovered that revealed hundreds of user accounts to other users. Until the bug is resolved, Android TV owners won't be able to set Google Photo albums as their screensaver or view pictures with Google Assistant on their set-top devices or smart TVs, as reported by Android Police. The bug was first spotted by Twitter user Prashanth who noticed that, while trying to set up a screensaver on a Vu brand TV, they could view hundreds of other Google accounts, a bug that was replicated by user Aarjith Nandakumar on his iFFalcon smart TV. It's not entirely clear what caused the bug. Prashanth notes that they couldn't replicate the bug on another Android TV... |
Lego takes on Samsung and Huawei with its own foldable Posted: 04 Mar 2019 01:09 PM PST Foldable phones dominated tech headlines over the past few weeks, starting with the announcement of Samsung's Galaxy Fold just 11 short days ago. Riding this wave of the foldables, Lego is now poking fun at the upcoming Galaxy smartphone with a tweet showcasing the "Lego Fold," — actually the company's Pop-Up Book set, dressed up in the style of Samsung's own marketing. Lego is also quick to point out that its foldable actually beats Samsung's, with a 5-inch cover that unfolds into an 11-inch storybook screen, compared to Samsung's 4.6-inch exterior display and 7.3-inch interior. The Lego Fold also has the Galaxy Fold beat on battery life, with Lego offering a nearly unbeatable promise that it "never runs out of battery." A... |
How to use Android Pie’s search bar to control your phone’s settings Posted: 04 Mar 2019 12:59 PM PST When Android 9 Pie was introduced last year, it brought with it a new feature called Slices, which would allow features from third-party apps to exist within the Android interface. While you've been able to ask Google Assistant to toggle some things on and off for a while, the latest implementation of Slices has made it easier to access a variety of Android settings from within Google search — assuming, of course, that your Pixel is equipped with Pie. It's very simple: search on something like Bluetooth or Night Light using the Google search box on the home screen. The last choice on the search drop-down menu will have a toggle for that feature. We were also able to do a search on "volume" and got an adjustable range. |
AT&T just made its first huge changes to HBO and the rest of WarnerMedia Posted: 04 Mar 2019 12:35 PM PST This morning, fresh off of a court victory that sealed its acquisition of Time Warner Inc. once and for all, AT&T announced wide-reaching changes to the structure of that company, now known as WarnerMedia. Robert Greenblatt, a former chairman at NBC Entertainment, has been brought on to run WarnerMedia Entertainment, a brand-new unit that folds Home Box Office, Inc. and Turner Broadcasting into one entity. Greenblatt will oversee HBO, TBS, TNT, and truTV. Equally as important, he's also been tasked with heading up WarnerMedia's direct-to-consumer business and the upcoming streaming service that AT&T hopes will prove a worthy foe to Netflix and kick off a new era of distribution for its robust breadth of content. "This change will provide... |
