| Massive Capital One breach exposes personal info of 100 million Americans Posted: 29 Jul 2019 06:43 PM PDT  Banking institution Capital One has just revealed that it's suffered a data breach that exposed the names, addresses, phone numbers, emails, dates of birth, and self-reported incomes of approximately 100 million Americans, and 6 million in Canada, due to a "configuration vulnerability" in the servers of an unnamed cloud computing company hosting the bank's data. The hacker is already in custody, according to the US Justice Department: 33-year-old Paige Thompson, aka Erratic, who The Wall Street Journal reports is a former Amazon Web Services engineer. But according to the complaint, the hacker may have shared some of the info on a private Slack chat server before being caught. Capital One's press release... |
| You can now run Android on a Nintendo Switch Posted: 29 Jul 2019 05:59 PM PDT  Photo by James Bareham / The Verge The Nintendo Switch can now run Android, giving the hybrid game console access to Netflix, YouTube, Spotify, Twitch, a wide array of Android apps, and loads of classic game emulators, of course. Specifically, it's an unofficial port of LineageOS 15.1 based on Nvidia's own builds for the Nvidia Shield TV set-top-box, meaning you can play Nvidia exclusives like Portal, Half-Life 2, and try Nvidia's own GeForce Now cloud gaming service. That's right: six years after Nvidia tried to ape Nintendo by releasing a handheld Android game console, you can now load Android onto Nintendo's own Nvidia-based portable. We're coming full circle. Not everything works flawlessly, according to XDA-developers, whose members contributed to the port and whose... |
| Apple will let you choose ‘bigger’ or ‘more’ app icons on your iPad’s home screen Posted: 29 Jul 2019 04:11 PM PDT  Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge Apple's latest iOS 13 beta version was released earlier today, and with it came a few surprises. The most notable is that the company is planning a previously unannounced feature that will let users, for the first time, resize app icons on the home screen. At least, that's how Apple refers to it. It'd be more technically accurate to say grid layout customization, as the smaller or larger app icons are a product of adding an extra two columns to the overall grid layout. But "App Icon Size" is how it's labeled in Settings. So it goes. As noted by MacRumors, this feature is currently available in the fifth beta of iPadOS, so it's unclear if it will be an official feature of iOS 13 for the iPhone.... |
| Dish loses more satellite TV customers as it embarks on a mobile future Posted: 29 Jul 2019 03:57 PM PDT  Photo by Chris Welch / The Verge Days after outlining how it plans to rise from out of nowhere as a major wireless provider in the United States and launch 5G service by the end of next year, Dish today reported its second quarter earnings — and they're another reminder of exactly why the satellite TV provider is morphing into a mobile carrier. Dish lost 79,000 satellite subscribers in the quarter. The company's streaming TV service, Sling TV, added 48,000 customers, but that still left Dish with a net loss of 31,000 customers and continues the narrative that pay TV is on the decline. Satellite is sagging, but Sling TV is a bright spot; it's growing and stands out from rivals as the most inexpensive of the major internet TV services. Still, competitors like YouTube TV... |
| Tesla’s Megapack battery is big enough to help grids handle peak demand Posted: 29 Jul 2019 03:47 PM PDT  Image: Tesla Tesla announced a new massive battery today called Megapack that could replace so-called "peaker" power plants, which provide energy when a local electrical grid gets overloaded. Tesla says that Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) will deploy several Megapacks at Moss Landing on Monterrey Bay in California, which is one of four locations where the California utility plans to install more cost-effective energy storage solutions. Each Megapack can store up to 3 megawatt hours (MWh) of energy at a time, and it's possible to string enough Megapacks together to create a battery with more than 1 GWh of energy storage, Tesla says. The company says this would be enough energy to power "every home in San Francisco for six hours." Telsa will deliver... |
| Amazon’s Ring reportedly partners with more than 200 US police departments Posted: 29 Jul 2019 03:22 PM PDT  Photo by Dan Seifert / The Verge Amazon's surveillance camera brand Ring has partnered with more than 200 police departments across the country, according to a new report by Motherboard. It's been widely known that Ring has worked with law enforcement: Motherboard recently reported on a contract between the company and a police department, and Amazon has even used footage of suspected thieves to promote the products. But the news highlights the scope of the relationship between the company and police. Motherboard obtained notes from an officer given a webinar by Ring. According to the notes, Ring lets officers request footage from owners through Ring. While police reportedly need consent from owners, a warrant isn't... |
| Apple’s future iPhone might add a time-of-flight camera — here’s what it could do Posted: 29 Jul 2019 03:00 PM PDT  Photo by James Bareham / The Verge We're still a few months away from Apple announcing its 2019 iPhones, but rumors have already started for next year's models, with the ever-reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claiming in his latest report that two of the 2020 iPhones will feature a rear time-of-flight (ToF) 3D depth sensor for better augmented reality features and portrait shots, via MacRumors. It's not the first we've heard of Apple considering a ToF camera for its 2020 phones, either. Bloomberg reported a similar rumor back in January, and reports of a 3D camera system for the iPhone have existed since 2017. Other companies have beaten Apple to the punch here, with several phones on the market already featuring ToF cameras. But given the prevalence of Apple's... |
| Disney is breaking records with the best box office year in history Posted: 29 Jul 2019 02:55 PM PDT  Photo: Film Frame / Marvel Studios Disney has made more money in the first seven months of 2019 than any studio has ever made in a single year, earning $7.67 billion to date at the worldwide box office. It's an understatement to call that a major accomplishment for the House of Mouse. It's more like a testimony to how powerful Disney has become as a monolith. But it's an achievement that inevitably won't roll over into 2020. 2019 is an anomaly for Disney. A big part of that impressive number comes from the record-breaking success of Avengers: Endgame, which pulled in more than $2.8 billion worldwide and usurped Avatar as the highest-grossing movie of all time. Captain Marvel was another unusually high earner, the sixth-highest-grossing Marvel movie of all time, crossing... |
| Verizon says it has a secret 5G plan after T-Mobile CEO calls company ‘clueless’ Posted: 29 Jul 2019 02:26 PM PDT  Verizon CEO Hans Vestberg | Photo by Chris Welch / The Verge On Friday, T-Mobile CEO John Legere called Verizon "clueless" and "dead in the water without a strategy" for 5G. Now, Verizon says it has a 5G strategy — it just isn't sharing exactly what that strategy is. Legere claimed that Verizon lacked a plan to expand 5G beyond big cities since the carrier appeared to be relying entirely on millimeter wave, a type of radio wave that can deliver very fast speeds but only over short distances. Verizon's advertising and public comments have been heavily focused on millimeter-wave deployment, but the company now tells The Verge that its 5G plans go beyond that when it comes to expanding 5G to the rest of the US. Verizon will have a "multi-spectrum... |
| Lil Nas X became Twitter’s CEO for a day and didn’t ban the Nazis Posted: 29 Jul 2019 01:18 PM PDT  Photo by Noam Galai/Getty Images for BuzzFeed Today, Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road" made Billboard chart history, becoming the longest-running No. 1 hit since the chart began in 1958 — beating out Mariah Carey, whose collaboration with Boyz II Men, "One Sweet Day," had previously held the record. ("Old Town Road" has spent nearly four months at number one.) Twitter also posted a video on its music account, Twitter Music, starring the young rapper and meme impresario, in which he grabs Jack Dorsey's badge and becomes CEO for the day. His first act? Firing @Jack. His second? Demanding an edit button, and then firing a roomful of engineers when they didn't begin typing fast enough. The two-minute clip was fun, and funny; honestly, seeing someone ask Twitter for something its users have... |
