Read Google’s new Nest privacy promise and tell me if you’re swayed Posted: 07 May 2019 06:07 PM PDT Google wants to be inside your home. It wants to sell you cameras, alarm systems, and voice assistants to make your life — and maybe its targeted advertising business — that much easier. But there's a problem. People don't necessarily trust big tech companies or their camera-equipped smart displays right now. And while Google may not have had a Cambridge Analytica-level scandal on its hands, a couple recent incidents with its Nest division could have given buyers pause: a string of digital break-ins where Nest cameras let strangers deliver fake nuclear bomb threats and spy on babies over the internet (not exaggerating), and the revelation that the Nest Secure alarm system had a secret microphone that buyers never knew about. So today, as... |
Waymo’s self-driving cars are now available on Lyft’s app in Phoenix Posted: 07 May 2019 03:01 PM PDT Lyft riders in the Phoenix area will soon be able to summon one of Waymo's self-driving minivans for a ride, the companies said Tuesday. It's the culmination of a partnership that was first announced almost two years ago exactly. To start out, just 10 vehicles will be available on Lyft's app in the handful of towns around Phoenix. Lyft customers will have the option to select a ride in a Waymo self-driving car through the ride-hail company's app. There will be safety drivers behind the wheel, much like with Waymo One, Alphabet's commercial ride-hailing service. But despite looking limited on the surface, it represents a pretty big leap forward for... |
EA wants to bring Apex Legends to mobile Posted: 07 May 2019 02:58 PM PDT Today EA released its quarterly earnings, and unsurprisingly Apex Legends was a big hit. According to EA, the Respawn-developed battle royale game is "easily the fastest-growing franchise we've ever had." What might be surprising, though, is that EA said it's looking to bring the game from PC and console to mobile platforms. "We are in advanced negotiations to bring Apex Legends to China and to mobile," the company said during today's call. Unfortunately, that's all the information we have right now. But clearly EA is looking to keep pace with Apex's biggest competitors, Fortnite and PUBG. Both of those games are available on mobile, though they utilize different strategies. Fortnite is essentially the exact same experience across all... |
Game of Thrones fan video imagines a beautiful Arya and the Hound buddy comedy Posted: 07 May 2019 02:51 PM PDT Game of Thrones is almost over, and while executives at HBO are rushing to work up a spinoff that will ensure HBO Now subscriptions remain mandatory, there's one obvious take: a buddy adventure story starring Arya Stark and the Hound. A new fan trailer from Lance Krall, published on Vimeo, sets up an idea of what a series called Arya and The Hound could look like. The style of Krall's video is similar to what other fan-trailer editors have done over the years with The Avengers cast or going back to the original Shining comedy recut, and this one works just as well. Set to the tune of Jim Croce's "I Got A Name," the fake opening credits focus on the duo's strange, quirky, but totally adorable friendship. There's Arya learning to kill... |
Pixel 3A vs. Pixel 3: how the specs compare for Google’s latest phones Posted: 07 May 2019 02:33 PM PDT Google just took the wraps off its latest smartphone: the Pixel 3A, a cheaper version of its flagship Pixel phone that starts at just $400, or roughly half of what the more powerful Pixel 3 costs. If you want to know whether the Pixel 3A is good, I'd recommend reading my colleague Dieter Bohn's review (spoiler: it's very good, especially for the price). But the question isn't whether the Pixel 3A is good — it's whether the regular Pixel 3 (and Pixel 3 XL) are good enough to justify spending twice as much. First off, let's get to the biggest difference: the processor. Simply put, the Pixel 3 has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845, a flagship-class Android processor (even if it is last year's model). The Pixel 3A has a... |
How to enable the new gestures in the Android Q beta Posted: 07 May 2019 02:28 PM PDT Android Q's third developer preview brought along several new features, one of which is fairly contentious: iPhone-like gestures. Once they're activated, the home button will disappear. In its place, you'll swipe up to go home. And, say, where'd that back button go? To navigate back and forth through apps, you can swipe left or right on your screen to get where you need to go. After a few minutes of use, some Verge staffers really like the changes since it makes switching between iOS 12 and Android Q a little less jarring. Others aren't sold on the gestures, though that's how it usually goes with new features. If you want to give these gestures a try, we've broken down the steps below to activate them on your phone. But before you get... |
Google reveals it’s working on foldable phone prototypes Posted: 07 May 2019 01:39 PM PDT Samsung may have just had its first ever, high-profile foldable phone flame out in embarrassing fashion, but that's not stopping other companies from looking into the technology. Ahead of its I/O developer conference, Google says it's also looking into foldable tech and has been prototyping foldable displays for quite some time, according to CNET. "We're definitely prototyping the technology. We've been doing it for a long time," Mario Queiroz, Google's Pixel development lead, told CNET last week in an interview. According to Querioz, however, "I don't think there's a clear use case yet." That means we shouldn't expect a foldable Pixel any time soon, or maybe ever. "We're prototyping foldable displays and many other new hardware... |
Google reveals that 10 percent of devices are using Android 9 Pie, nine months after its release Posted: 07 May 2019 01:33 PM PDT Google has announced that 10.4 percent of the total Android install is running Android Pie, the latest version of the mobile OS that the company officially released last year on August 6th, 2018 (via Android Police). Today's announcement marks the first time in the nine months since Google released Pie to the public that the company has given hard stats on what percent of devices have it installed. Compared to last year, Google's numbers are way up: as of May 2018, Android Oreo was only installed on 5.7 percent of Android devices, meaning that Pie (based on our limited dataset, at least) is being picked up twice as fast as the last version. Oreo still makes up the largest... |
Google is pushing back against ad tracking in Chrome Posted: 07 May 2019 01:06 PM PDT Today, at the I/O developer conference, Google announced a new way to limit how much advertisers can track you online. As first reported by The Wall Street Journal, the company is releasing a new set of controls that will allow users to see all of the cookies currently stored by the browser and give them the option of blocking any trackers they don't like. It's unclear how the new controls will work, and the pending interface was not made available to journalists, but the company described it as a new step in how Chrome protects users' privacy. Google is also pushing back against non-cookie tracking techniques like browser fingerprinting, reducing the amount of passive information Chrome provides to sites and taking new steps to fight... |
Romance is dead on Game of Thrones Posted: 07 May 2019 01:05 PM PDT Spoilers ahead for Game of Thrones, season 8, episode 4, "The Last of the Starks." Season 8 of Game of Thrones has had a lot to live up to. If the show's big finale was going to be as good as the lead-up seasons that made it a sensation, it would need epic political intrigue, meaningful deaths, and even a touch of romance. While few people look to Game of Thrones as the epitome of romantic fiction — it's featured a lot more rape, incest, and abuse than supportive relationships — some strong pairings have emerged. Fans strongly identified with a few of them: Jon Snow and Ygritte, Gilly and Sam, and Missandei and Grey Worm. Of these couples, though, only one has survived the show's repeated culling of minor characters. Season 8 has... |
