In its latest teardown video, iFixit took apart an iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro, and found that the devices look pretty similar to each other on the inside. The displays are interchangeable, iFixit found, and so are the 10.78 Wh batteries.

When they removed the camera shield on the iPhone 12, iFixit found a plastic spacer where the iPhone 12 Pro has its telephoto lens and LiDAR sensor. Both devices have 12 MP wide and ultra-wide cameras.

iFixit also examined an X-ray (courtesy of Creative Electron) of the insides of the phones, which show the MagSafe wireless charging array. The X-ray of the iPhone 12 Pro appears to have a black border, but...

Epic says Apple ‘has no rights to the fruits of Epic’s labor’ in latest filing

Epic Games fired back against Apple yet again in a new court filing, saying the iPhone maker "has no rights to the fruits of Epic's labor," the latest salvo in the ongoing battle between the two companies.

A quick recap: Back in August, Epic introduced a new direct-payment system in its wildly popular Fortnite game to bypass Apple's 30 percent fee. Apple kicked Fortnite off the App Store for breaking its rules, and Epic responded with a civil lawsuit against Apple, alleging that Apple was violating antitrust law. Epic also revealed that Apple threatened to terminate the developer account used to support the company's Unreal Engine platform, which would prevent Epic from developing future games for iOS or Mac.

Earlier this month, US...

Food delivery platform DoorDash has partnered with a restaurant for the first time to build a new brick-and-mortar store, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. Burma Bites, a spin off of Oakland, California-based Burma Superstar, was designed for delivery and takeout, and will offer versions of menu items from the parent restaurant as well as new items in environmentally-friendly to-go containers, DoorDash said. According to the Chronicle, all menu items are priced between $12 and $19.

DoorDash did not disclose the amount of its investment in Burma Bites, but told The Verge in an email it has been working on the project for about a year. The restaurant was originally supposed to open in March, but that was delayed by the coronavirus...

Patreon has updated its policies and will no longer support creator accounts on its platform that "advance disinformation promoting the QAnon conspiracy theory," the company announced in a blog post.

A "small number of creators" on Patreon have supported QAnon with their work, the platform says, adding it's taking action because "a number of other online platforms become overrun with pages and groups actively focused around QAnon disinformation."

QAnon-dedicated creators identified by Patreon's policy and trust & safety teams will have their accounts removed, the blog post added. The policy update "applies only to creators engaged in spreading QAnon-supporting disinformation," the company said; while just "mentioning, entertaining,...

The Italian Data Protection Authority has started an investigation into the widespread use of bots that generate fake nude images on messaging app Telegram. The news follows an investigation by security firm Sensity, which found that as of July 2020 more than 100,000 faked images had been generated and shared in public Telegram channels.

The bots can generate fake nudes that have watermarks or that show only partial nudity, and users pay to "reveal" the whole image. Users could submit a photo of a woman to the bot and receive a version of the photo back with clothing "removed" and no indication that the image had been altered. And according to Sensity, a limited number of the bot-generated images, most of which are pulled from social...

Netflix’s Rebecca flattens a classic

In 1939, Alfred Hitchcock came to Hollywood. The English master of suspense would ply his trade in sunny California, and Rebecca, his first American film, would win him his first and only Oscar. Despite the acclaim, Hitchcock hated Rebecca, as it was his first encounter with American censors and their stodgy Production Code, which made it nearly impossible to accurately adapt the Daphne du Maurier book on which it was based. Still, Hitchcock found a way, and we remember Rebecca now as a classic.

Like other classics, Rebecca has been reinvented many times. Director Ben Wheatley's 2020 adaptation is the latest, and it's new on Netflix this week. Being shot in the modern era, Wheatley's film has significantly fewer hurdles to clear, given...

Hundreds of thousands of people didn’t have to die

If you take the typical death toll in the United States in a typical year and add the population of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania or the population of St. Louis, Missouri, you'll end up with the number of people who died this year. There were nearly 300,000 more deaths than there would have been during a normal year, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Without a pandemic, that many more people would still be alive.

Most of those deaths, about two-thirds, were from COVID-19. But around 100,000 people died as a consequence of the pandemic, even if the virus didn't directly kill them. They may have died because they avoided a hospital, despite their symptoms of — for example — a stroke, because of a...
