| Facebook says it will restore groups infiltrated by saboteurs Posted: 16 May 2019 05:16 PM PDT  Facebook is "working to restore" a number of groups that were erroneously removed or affected by "sabotage," according to the company. A spokesperson told The Verge the social network "removed several groups from Facebook after detecting content that violated our policies." After investigation, it discovered content had been "posted to sabotage legitimate, non-violating groups." Facebook is working to restore any groups affected and to "prevent this from happening again." The situation allegedly began on May 13th. A popular meme account on Facebook known as Crossovers Nobody Asked For (CNAF), which boasts more than 500,000 members, was suddenly shut down. The group's administrators tried to corral its users into a new group, "Crossovers... |
| Chelsea Manning ordered to return to jail, says she’d ‘rather starve to death’ than testify Posted: 16 May 2019 03:00 PM PDT  Former Army intelligence analyst and whistleblower Chelsea Manning is being sent back to jail today, following the arrival of a new grand jury in an ongoing WikiLeaks case for which Manning was ordered to testify and refused. Manning spent 62 days in jail over the course of the last two and half months for her initial refusal, and she only got out last week on a technicality related to the expiration of the prior grand jury's term. Now with a new grand jury in place for the case, which is under the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, US District Judge Anthony Trenga has again found Manning in civil contempt for refusing to testify and says more jail time may sway her decision. However, Manning was adamant that... |
| The Air Force wants to rescue downed pilots with an autonomous aircraft Posted: 16 May 2019 02:33 PM PDT  Whenever a US aircraft crashes, there's a quick response: a rescue team is dispatched to the crash site to secure the wreckage and recover the pilot, but in some cases, that can be a dangerous proposition that puts additional personnel at risk of accident or enemy fire. The Air Force wants to avoid that — or at the very least, add a new tool to its disposal when it comes to rescuing the downed pilot. According to a solicitation from the Air Force Research Laboratory spotted by Aviation Week (via Task & Purpose), one possibility would be an autonomous aircraft that could potentially fly people away from a crash site. The solicitation is called Personnel Recovery / Transport Vehicle, and was issued on May 2nd. It broadly sketches out what... |
| The CW is ending its Netflix deal, but that doesn’t mean Riverdale is disappearing Posted: 16 May 2019 02:12 PM PDT  Many of the CW's original series have found new audiences through a long-standing streaming agreement with Netflix, but that deal is coming to an end. Netflix's agreement with The CW's parent companies, Warner Bros. and CBS, ensured that CW series like Riverdale, Supernatural, The Flash, and Arrow automatically ended up on Netflix after a season's initial run on network television. The deal was first signed in 2011 and re-upped in 2016, but the network doesn't plan to renew it when the contract expires this spring, The Verge can confirm. That means new shows, such as Batwoman, Nancy Drew, and Riverdale spinoff Katy Keene won't automatically end up on Netflix. Still, many beloved CW series will remain on Netflix, according to the... |
| Instagram ends experiment with standalone Direct messaging app Posted: 16 May 2019 01:45 PM PDT  Facebook is shutting down Direct, a standalone camera-first messaging app used to send Instagram direct messages. "In the coming month, we'll no longer be supporting the Direct app," read a message in the app announcing the shutdown. "Your conversations will automatically move over to Instagram, so you don't need to do anything." The announcement was first spotted by social media commentator Matt Navarra. First launched in December 2017, Direct was an apparent attempt by Instagram to take on Snapchat's core functionality. The app launched directly into its camera, complete with plenty of Snapchat-style filters, but you could also swipe down from the top of the screen to type messages to your Instagram contacts. Direct was the second... |
| Tesla pushes battery software update after recent fires Posted: 16 May 2019 01:01 PM PDT  Tesla is pushing out a software update to all Model S and X cars following two recent high-profile battery fires. The automaker said it's issuing the update "out of an abundance of caution." The over-the-air update will change some of the settings in the cars' battery management software related to charging and thermal controls, though the company didn't go into further detail. (The software of Tesla's battery management system is one of the company's most closely guarded trade secrets.) The software update comes after some highly publicized fires in Asia. In April, an older Model S seemingly spontaneously combusted while sitting unused in a parking structure in Shanghai. The fire was caught by security cameras, and the footage quickly... |
| The White House is painting an ugly picture of tech bias against conservatives Posted: 16 May 2019 12:06 PM PDT  Last month, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) held a hearing to discuss what he perceived to be a conservative bias on social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter. A representative from each of those companies sat before him and a panel predominantly composed of other Republicans. (Most Democratic members decided to skip the "bias" hearing entirely.) "Not only does Big Tech have the power to silence voices with which they disagree, but Big Tech likewise has the power to collate a person's feed so they only receive the news that comports with their own political agenda," Cruz said at the hearing. Cruz conceded that most of his party's complaints were derived solely from personal stories. "Much of... |
| Asus’ ZenFone 6 has top-notch specs and no notch, thanks to a flip-top camera Posted: 16 May 2019 11:56 AM PDT  The Asus ZenFone 6 has officially been announced, and where the ZenFone 5 was basically just a boring iPhone X clone, the new model is thinking way outside the box, eliminating the top bezel entirely thanks to a completely wild rotating camera. I mean, just look at this thing: The whole phone also represents a shift in direction for Asus, which seems determined to carve out its own niche in the phone space instead of chasing Apple or Samsung, at least from a design perspective. So, instead of an unsightly black bar or weird hole-punch dot at the top of your phone, the whole front of the ZenFone 6 is just a seamless expanse of screen, which is pretty great to look at, although there is still a small bezel on the bottom. M... |
| Watch the first trailer for The CW’s Batwoman Posted: 16 May 2019 11:28 AM PDT  The latest entry in The CW's Arrowverse is coming later this fall: Batwoman. At its upfronts presentation today, the network unveiled a first trailer for its next superhero series. This particular version of Batwoman follows Kate Kane (played by Orange Is The New Black's Ruby Rose) — cousin to Bruce Wayne, who happens to be missing — as she leaves Gotham City in the midst of a crime wave. Her father, Jacob Kane, steps in with his private security firm, Crows Private Security, and sends his daughter away for her own safety. Kate returns home to find that her girlfriend, Crow security officer Sophie Moore, has been captured by a gang, and she takes up the mantle that Batman left behind when he vanished. |
| Verizon’s 5G network is now hitting gigabit download speeds Posted: 16 May 2019 11:27 AM PDT  What a difference a few weeks can make. Last month, I came to Chicago for the launch of Verizon's 5G network, which is now live both here and in Minneapolis. The inaugural 5G device was the Moto Z3 equipped with Motorola's 5G MotoMod, and my experience — and that of many other tech journalists — was less than positive: 5G coverage was exceedingly difficult to find. Speeds were noticeably faster than LTE, but not wickedly so. But today marks the release of Samsung's $1,400 Galaxy S10 5G, which will briefly be a Verizon exclusive before moving to other carriers. And now that there's a real, proper 5G phone on its network, Verizon has ramped things up. Coverage remains extremely limited: it varies widely and block by block. But when you... |
