| Samsung finally killing off S Voice assistant as of June 1 Posted: 11 Apr 2020 10:50 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Later this year Samsung will finally kill off its S Voice assistant, which never really caught up to Apple's Siri. A note on Samsung's support page says S Voice will no longer be available from June 1, as first reported by SamMobile. Samsung's first attempt at a voice assistant, S Voice was introduced in 2012 in the Galaxy S III, but was buggy and slow. As 9to5 Google notes, S Voice could set reminders and make calls but wasn't able to answer user questions in a conversational way, like Siri and Google Assistant are designed to do. Samsung essentially replaced S Voice with Bixby in phones starting with the Galaxy S8 (although Bixby itself hasn't exactly impressed reviewers from The Verge over its lifespan, either).

| Canalys says supply chain woes meant fewer PCs shipped in Q1 despite huge demand Posted: 11 Apr 2020 09:06 AM PDT  Photography by Becca Farsace / The Verge Research firm Canalys has released its quarterly estimates on global PC shipments for Q1, and despite a surge in demand, "severe delays in production and logistical issues," meant an 8 percent drop in shipments year-over-year.

In Q1 2020, vendors shipped 53.7 million units, Canalys found. The new data estimates Lenovo led the PC market, with 12.8 million units shipped in Q1, a 4.4 percent year-over-year decline. HP shipped 11.7 million units, or 13.8... |

| NASA marking the 50th anniversary of “successful failure” Apollo 13 mission Posted: 11 Apr 2020 07:08 AM PDT  The Apollo 13 astronauts | Photo by Time Life Pictures/NASA/The LIFE Picture Collection via Getty Images Today is the 50th anniversary of the launch of the Apollo 13 mission that never made it to the moon, the one where Commander Jim Lovell uttered the phrase "Houston, we've had a problem." NASA calls the mission a "successful failure," because even though an explosion crippled the primary spacecraft two days in, Lovell and fellow crewmembers Fred Haise and Jack Swigert returned safely to Earth thanks to the determined work of the ground crew at Mission Control. NASA isn't planning in-person activities to commemorate the event due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but has released a documentary with archival footage from the mission. Apollo 13: Home Safe includes interviews with Lovell (it opens with him saying "it was plagued by bad omens and... |
| How Apple and Google are tackling one of the toughest parts about tracking COVID-19 exposures Posted: 11 Apr 2020 03:00 AM PDT  Around here we say that The Interface comes out Monday through Thursday, and on particularly newsy Fridays. Well, today was a particularly newsy Friday. Here's your emergency newsletter ... On Thursday evening I wrote about some of the limitations in using the Bluetooth chip in your smartphone to track the spread of COVID-19. Naturally, on Friday morning Apple and Google announced what might be the most significant collaboration in the history of both companies — a joint effort to use the Bluetooth chip in your smartphone to track the spread of COVID-19. Russell Brandom and Adi Robertson had the details in The Verge:
