Jony Ive’s latest product is the Apple Stage, a giant rainbow under which Lady Gaga is about to play Posted: 17 May 2019 06:32 PM PDT According to MacRumors, Cult of Mac and a variety of social media reports, Apple employees are having a unique day at Apple's spaceship campus — one filled with rainbows. Last week, drone videographer Duncan Sinfield discovered that Apple had erected a gigantic new rainbow stage at the heart of its Apple Park campus, and this morning Apple employees learned what it meant: a huge celebration that may culminate in a private performance from Lady Gaga herself. There was rainbow swag: |
Italy opens antitrust probe into Google because of a rejected Android Auto app Posted: 17 May 2019 02:57 PM PDT Italy's antitrust authority has become the latest international regulatory body to open an anti-competition investigation into Google, joining the European Union and the Competition Commission of India. The regulator opened the probe on Thursday after energy company Enel Group complained that Google wouldn't allow the "Enel X Recharge" app to work with Android Auto. Enel Group was created by the Italian government in 1962, and it was privatized in 1999, though its biggest shareholder is currently Italy's Ministry of Economy and Finance. Google allows third-party developers to develop Android Auto-compatible versions of their apps, but only if they offer... |
Man sentenced to over 18 months in prison after threatening to kill Ajit Pai Posted: 17 May 2019 02:17 PM PDT On Friday, a California man was sentenced to over a year and a half in prison for threatening to kill Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai and his family over the agency's controversial repeal of net neutrality. The threats took place in December 2017 as the FCC took up the vote to roll back net neutrality regulations under Pai's leadership. As the day of the vote approached, a man named Markara Man, 33, began sending Pai emails with threats against him and his family. Allegedly, the first email accused the net neutrality repeal, and therefore Pai, of causing a teenager to die by suicide. The next email reportedly made explicit threats to kill Pai and his family, including specific addresses in and around Arlington,... |
Google has been tracking nearly everything you buy online — see for yourself with this tool Posted: 17 May 2019 01:41 PM PDT Google has been quietly keeping track of nearly every single online purchase you've ever made, thanks to purchase receipts sent to your personal Gmail account, according to a new report today from CNBC. Even stranger: this information is made available to you via a private web tool that's been active for an indeterminate amount of time. You can go view it here. Because I made my Gmail account nearly a decade ago, my purchase history stretches back as far as 2010, including purchases I made while I was a college student and those through Apple's App Store, which has been linked to my Gmail account since its inception. It also includes some real-world transactions made using my credit card, thanks to point-of-sale software providers like... |
Hewlett Packard Enterprise acquires supercomputer maker Cray in the race to ‘exascale’ performance Posted: 17 May 2019 12:37 PM PDT Hewlett Packard Enterprise, not to be confused with the personal computing brand from which it split in 2015, said today that it acquired Cray, an iconic maker of supercomputers with a rich history in the computing industry. The deal is said to be valued at $1.3 billion. Cray, which was founded in 1972 by "the father of supercomputing," Seymour Cray, is currently contracted to build two of the world's fastest supercomputers for two US Department of Energy Labs: the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Argonne National Laboratory. Both systems, one called Frontier being built in partnership with AMD and one called Aurora with Intel, are promised to bring so-called "exascale" performance, with raw performance power of the excess of 1.5... |
AT&T defends location data sales in newly public letter Posted: 17 May 2019 11:52 AM PDT AT&T defended the sale of user location data in a letter made public today, saying that the practice was technically legal because it did not involve the type of data the Federal Communications Commission prohibits carriers from selling without user consent. Despite that defense, the company claims it has, in the past few months, accelerated its plan to stop providing such data, which, again, AT&T would very much like to remind everyone wasn't against the law. The FCC is investigating the telecom and fellow carriers T-Mobile, Sprint, and Verizon for the long-standing practice that only in the past couple of years has come to light after press investigations. All four major carriers claimed they would stop the practice in June 2018 after... |
Watch the first full trailer for HBO’s adaptation of His Dark Materials Posted: 17 May 2019 11:27 AM PDT HBO's Game of Thrones is coming to an end this weekend, and once it's over, the network will have to figure out what its next big hit will be. One possibility is its forthcoming adaptation of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. You can get a glimpse of that today: HBO just released the first real trailer for the upcoming fantasy series. Pullman's fantasy trilogy (The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass as well as his ongoing sequel trilogy, which started with The Book of Dust in 2017) is certainly epic in scale. Set in an alternate world where one's soul manifests as a shape-shifting animal called a Daemon, it follows a young girl named Lyra Belacqua (played in the series by Logan star Dafne Keen) who... |
Game of Thrones Hope Chest: should Daenerys be saved? Posted: 17 May 2019 11:13 AM PDT Game of Thrones has never been about giving readers or viewers what they most want. Its author and screenwriters prefer to build fan expectations, then overturn them for narrative impact and, sometimes, pure shock value. Yet, fans maintain hope that at least a few of the characters will reach satisfying, well-deserved endings. So it's time for the return of Game of Thrones Hope Chest, the weekly poll where we put all of our hopes together in one place. We aren't asking what you think is going to happen on Game of Thrones. We're asking: what do you most hope to see happen. This week, there's really just one question: do you want to see Daenerys Targaryen saved? That raises a host of other minor questions, including can she be saved, and s... |
Five questions about 5G, answered Posted: 17 May 2019 11:06 AM PDT There is a lot of 5G hype — too much, actually — and it's much more complicated than the transition to 4G was. On top of complicated technological questions about millimeter waves and modems, there's also geopolitics, trade wars, gigantic lawsuits between tech titans, and empty buildings in Wisconsin. We're tracking all of those stories on The Verge — you can find our 5G coverage right here — but if you just want a quick primer on what's going on now that 5G phones are starting to be sold in stores and the White House is issuing 5G-related orders, read on. 1. Should I buy a 5G phone this year?No. Why not? The networks are barely existent, present only in a few cities. Even then, they only work well in certain blocks, and even then, you... |
The real change in Game of Thrones’ Daenerys is in how other characters see her Posted: 17 May 2019 10:42 AM PDT Warning: spoilers ahead for Game of Thrones season 8, especially episode 5, "The Bells." Game of Thrones has become increasingly divisive over the course of eight seasons, but Daenerys Targaryen's descent into becoming the "mad queen" may be its most controversial turn yet. Some viewers are arguing that Daenerys has always been a mad queen. Others say the show failed her character entirely. Even those who accept the mechanics of her fall often doubt the show earned it properly. But Daenerys' actions aren't the only things at the root of the fan divide. There are significant questions about the ways the latest episode, "The Bells," depicted her through other characters' eyes. In some ways, Daenerys' abrupt King's Landing rampage wasn't... |
