OnePlus inadvertently disables ‘X-Ray’ filter with an update sent to its global phones Posted: 29 May 2020 05:56 PM PDT Images: Ben Geskin / Twitter OnePlus accidentally pushed an over-the-air update that disables a filter that can see through some thin black plastics and, in certain cases, clothes. Though OnePlus said on May 19 that it would temporarily disable the filter in the Chinese version of its operating system in an update, the company hadn't planned on removing the filter from its global software. Instead, OnePlus said it would update the filter. The recent update removed the filter for people outside of China anyway. The filter, called "Photochrom," creates an X-Ray-like effect by using the infrared sensors built into the OnePlus 8 Pro to capture light that's not visible to the human eye. The feature was intended to be used to create interesting-looking photos. But it... |
Facebook won’t take any action on Trump’s post about shootings in Minnesota Posted: 29 May 2020 04:31 PM PDT Facebook will not remove or take any other action on a President Trump post that Twitter removed for "glorifying violence," CEO Mark Zuckerberg said Friday. "I know many people are upset that we've left the President's posts up, but our position is that we should enable as much expression as possible unless it will cause imminent risk of specific harms or dangers spelled out in clear policies," Zuckerberg said. Facebook "looked very closely at the post that discussed the protests in Minnesota," Zuckerberg said, "to evaluate whether it violated our policies." Ultimately, the company "decided to leave it up because the National Guard references meant we read it as a warning about state action, and we think people need to know if the... |
A new TikTok clone hit the top of the App Store by paying users to watch videos Posted: 29 May 2020 02:05 PM PDT TikTok has a new competitor: Zynn, a nearly button-for-button clone of TikTok that differentiates itself with one key twist — it pays users to sign up, watch videos, and convince others to follow suit. The app launched at the beginning of May, and as Mashable noticed, it's now the number one free app in Apple's App Store and in the top 10 on Google's Play Store, too. Zynn is fully a TikTok clone. The core interface is identical, and both are oriented around watching short portrait-orientation videos. The big distinction is a countdown timer with a dollar sign in the middle that hovers over every video on Zynn. As you watch videos, the timer fills up and gives you points, which you're supposed to be able to redeem later as cash or gift... |
Leaked posts show Facebook employees asking the company to remove Trump’s threat of violence Posted: 29 May 2020 01:54 PM PDT Illustration by Alex Castro / Th Facebook's decision not to take action against recent posts about mail-in ballots and the Minnesota protests by President Trump is roiling employees, some of whom are calling on executives to reconsider their stance. In response to an internal post explaining the company's rationale, some employees criticized the company's neutral posture. "I have to say I am finding the contortions we have to go through incredibly hard to stomach," one employee wrote in a comment about the shooting post. "All this points to a very high risk of a violent escalation and civil unrest in November and if we fail the test case here, history will not judge us kindly." On Tuesday Twitter labeled two tweets about mail-in voting as "potentially misleading" for... |
SpaceX loses another Starship prototype in massive explosion Posted: 29 May 2020 12:51 PM PDT A screengrab from SPadre's livestream of the engine test | Image: SPadre A fourth prototype of SpaceX's next generation Starship rocket exploded right after a test at the company's south Texas test site on Friday. Shortly after SpaceX ignited the engine on the test rocket, a massive fireball engulfed the vehicle in flames, leaving very little hardware still standing and apparently causing damage to the test site. The failed test comes just a day before SpaceX is set to perform an unrelated launch for NASA that will send two astronauts to the International Space Station. That historic mission will take place out of Cape Canaveral, Florida, on SpaceX's workhorse Falcon 9 rocket, which has flown more than 100 times before. While the failure of the Starship prototype is not linked to the upcoming NASA mission,... |
The United States will cut ties with the World Health Organization, says President Trump Posted: 29 May 2020 12:28 PM PDT Photo by Win McNamee/Getty Images The United States will terminate its relationship with the World Health Organization (WHO), President Trump said in a press conference today. "China has total control over World Health Organization," Trump said. "We have detailed to them the reforms that they must make and engaged with them directly but they have refused to act." Trump had previously frozen funding to the WHO, claiming that the organization bowed to pressure from China and was overly trusting on their early information about the spread of the coronavirus. He also took issue with the WHO's criticism of travel bans. Still, severing ties with the organization is a drastic step. Experts say that if the US severs ties with the WHO, there could be catastrophic consequences to... |
Amazon will no longer support the Echo Look, encourages owners to recycle theirs Posted: 29 May 2020 11:52 AM PDT Photo by Vjeran Pavic / The Verge Amazon is discontinuing its Echo Look camera, a standalone device that gave owners fashion advice using artificial intelligence and machine learning. The Look's companion app and the device itself will stop functioning on July 24th.

(People with existing Photos accounts will have their media backed up automatically.) Anyone who wants to delete all their existing photos and videos will have to do so before the July 2020 deadline; otherwise, they'll have to call Amazon's customer service to have them deleted. They can currently delete them through the Look app. Amazon points out that much of the Echo Look's functionality... |

Go read this Forbes investigation alleging Kylie Jenner isn’t actually a billionaire Posted: 29 May 2020 11:06 AM PDT Frazer Harrison/Getty Images In 2010, Bruno Mars famously sang that he wanted to be a billionaire "so fucking bad," working to wind up on the cover of Forbes magazine. Kylie Jenner, the youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, clearly had similar ambitions. A new investigation by Forbes has discovered that Kylie Jenner, who Forbes named a self-made billionaire in March 2019, isn't actually a billionaire. Based on Forbes' reporting, Jenner likely never was. Now, she's closer to a $900 millionaire — still an impressive number, but not quite the $1,000,000,000 she and her team led the world to believe. How did Forbes, the same magazine that initially declared Jenner a self-made billionaire, discover that she wasn't? A tale as old as time — public documents. When makeup... |
