| This Cybertruck-inspired iPhone 11 Pro costs $15K and isn’t made by Tesla or Apple Posted: 31 Jan 2020 06:49 PM PST  Phones are rounded rectangles now. Have been for years — ever since the iPhone killed the QWERTY slider dead. They're getting rounder and rounder, in fact, as manufacturers continue to figure out how to bend OLED screens and raw metals to their will. They're far too samey, unless you count an array of sci-fi inspired foldables that are so far basically just recreating the flip phone. I want something edgier to exist in the world. And now, just as Tesla's Cybertruck shook up the world of automobile design, a Cybertruck-inspired phone has emerged to maybe, possibly, OK probably not inspire the same sort of design in phones. The exorbitantly priced Cyberphone, which is effectively just a fancy shell around an Apple iPhone 11 Pro, was... |
| Markets blogger Zero Hedge suspended from Twitter after doxxing a Chinese scientist Posted: 31 Jan 2020 06:24 PM PST  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Twitter says it has permanently suspended markets blog Zero Hedge's Twitter account, @zerohedge, for violating the company's platform manipulation policy. On Wednesday, Zero Hedge posted a blog that doxxed a Chinese scientist and strongly suggested without evidence that the scientist created the strain of coronavirus that's currently spreading around the world. That blog lists a name, photo, email, and phone number that are reportedly tied to the scientist, and suggested that readers "pay [him] a visit" if they wanted to know "what really caused the coronavirus pandemic." BuzzFeed News reported on Zero Hedge's blog that doxxed the scientist earlier this evening, ahead of the Twitter suspension. The Verge is not publishing a link to Zero... |
| Amazon’s Echo Show can now scan barcodes to flesh out your shopping list Posted: 31 Jan 2020 04:57 PM PST  Photo by Dan Seifert / The Verge In our review of the Amazon Echo Show 5 smart display, Dan called it the "smart alarm clock to get." But I think I might move mine to the kitchen, right next to the garbage can. That's partly because Amazon has just added the ability for the Echo Show 5 and Echo Show 8's camera to scan barcodes, and automatically add those items to your shopping list (via VentureBeat). I might do that when I've got an empty package I'm about to toss in the trash. You start by saying "Alexa, scan this to my shopping list." Up pops this screen: I just tried it with a milk carton, orange juice, and a New Balance shoebox, and it seems to work fine in each case, adding each to my Alexa shopping list.... |
| Elon Musk releases ‘Don’t Doubt Ur Vibe’ song on SoundCloud, Spotify Posted: 31 Jan 2020 04:28 PM PST  Elon Musk, DJ, rocket man. Elon Musk is on a roll. Tesla stock is on a rocket ship and the Model Y SUV is coming early. Now, to share the good times, he's released a song on SoundCloud titled "Don't Doubt Ur Vibe." Seriously. The track is also available on Spotify. Musk has been teasing the track for several hours on Twitter. Now you can listen to it yourself, courtesy of "Emo G" Records (say it out loud and you'll catch the pun): The track is a followup to Musk's first single RIP Harambe, that payed homage to the beloved Cincinnati Zoo gorilla that suffered an untimely death.
Musk — who is listed as Elon "EDM" Musk" on the Spotify version — says he wrote the... |
| The guy who knew Nintendo’s Switch surprise ahead of time has pled guilty to hacking Posted: 31 Jan 2020 04:23 PM PST  Photo by James Bareham / The Verge A California man has pled guilty to hacking Nintendo's servers to steal confidential files, including taking information about the Nintendo Switch months before it was announced, the US Department of Justice revealed today. According to the DOJ, Ryan Hernandez, 21, and an associate phished a Nintendo employee in 2016 to get access to and steal confidential information from the company. In October 2017, the FBI contacted Hernandez and his parents to ask him to stop hacking, at which time Hernandez "confirmed that he understood the consequences of any future hacking." However, from at least June 2018 to June 2019, Hernandez continued to illegally access confidential corporate information,... |
| Twitter adds threaded replies to iOS to make it easier to see ongoing conversations Posted: 31 Jan 2020 03:51 PM PST  Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge Twitter announced a subtle design change to its iOS app today that may go a long way in both making conversations easier to parse and to join. The change, which looks like it's a change on Twitter's end that does not require an update, is to the threading feature in the Twitter timeline, which currently does a poor job of differentiating between standard tweets and replies. The update now draws a concrete line between a parent tweet and the replies, with the replies indented slightly and connected by the series of vertical and horizontal lines. It makes a Twitter conversation look effectively like thread of connected notes. The feature was first demoed in the company's experimental twttr beta app back in spring of last year. It only... |
| Hulu CEO steps down as Disney moves almost everything in house Posted: 31 Jan 2020 03:05 PM PST  Disney Randy Freer is stepping down from his role as Hulu CEO as Disney moves to consolidate it's direct-to-consumer business under its own executives. Part of the decision to roll Hulu's business operations into Disney's direct-to-consumer division is to help "rapidly grow our presence outside the US," according to a company press release put out Friday. Disney hasn't shied away from its plans to roll out Hulu in various international territories, along with its other streaming service, Disney+. The integration means Hulu executives will now report to Disney execs. Everything Hulu — and streaming-at-large — will now operate under Kevin Mayer, who heads up the division for Disney that includes Disney+, ESPN+, and now Hulu. |
| DOJ going after telecom companies for assisting robocall scams Posted: 31 Jan 2020 03:05 PM PST  Photo by Chris Welch / The Verge The Department of Justice is taking a new approach to robocalls, seeking approval to hold telecommunications companies responsible for calls on their networks instead of just going after the often-overseas criminals who actually do the dialing. The companies identified by the DOJ allowed two groups with ties to India and US offices in Arizona and New York to make hundreds of millions of calls per month, according to Jody Hunt of the DOJ's civil division. The companies are TollFreeDeals.com, SIP Retail, and their owners, Nicholas Palumbo and Natasha Palumbo in Scottsdale, Arizona; and Global Voicecom Inc., Global Telecommunication Services Inc., KAT Telecom Inc. and owner Jon Kahen of Great Neck, New York. The Justice Department is s... |
| Fast 9 takes place in an alternate reality where RED’s Hydrogen phone succeeded Posted: 31 Jan 2020 02:05 PM PST  The Fast and the Furious franchise is one full of improbability, a place where the laws of physics, science, and logic are thrown aside in favor of the inexorable powers of things like muscle cars, nitrous, and "family." But the newly released trailer for F9 (the official name for the ninth Fast and Furious movie) may have just revealed the most fantastical thing of all: it appears to take place in a world where the failed RED Hydrogen One phone is a hit, with multiple characters appearing to use the phone in the upcoming film. Both Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and the newly returned Han Lue (Sung Kang) are seen driving vehicles in the trailer using RED's $1,200 smartphone mounted to their dashboards (presumably as GPS units). And make... |
| Podcast app Overcast adds automatic intro skipping and overhauled Voice Boost feature Posted: 31 Jan 2020 01:41 PM PST  Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge App developer Marco Arment has a new update out today for his popular mobile podcast player Overcast. In a detailed blog post, Arment says the new version of Overcast now comes with a totally overhauled volume normalization feature, called Voice Boost 2, that relies on "dramatically more sophisticated methods, leading to more consistent results and much better sound quality." "Voice Boost 2 is a mastering-quality audio-processing pipeline that applies broadcast-standard loudness normalization, light compression and EQ, and a true-peak lookahead limiter to your podcasts, in real time, without sacrificing quality or battery life," Arment explains.
