Apple Maps is getting Google and Waze-like accident reporting Posted: 09 Feb 2021 06:08 PM PST Apple is bringing accident, hazard, and speed check reporting to Apple Maps. The feature is currently only available to users with the iOS 14.5 beta, and is similar to user-reporting features found in Waze and Google Maps. When you're using the feature, you (or preferably a passenger) can press a new Report button in the bottom tray, and select what type of incident or hazard you're reporting. You can even do this using Siri: I was also able to say "there's a speed trap here" or "there's something on the road." MacRumors shows that the interface is available on the CarPlay version of Maps, too. This user-centric... |
Apple will replace these MacBook Pro batteries for free if they don’t charge past one percent Posted: 09 Feb 2021 05:50 PM PST Apple has launched a new, free battery replacement program for 2016 and 2017 MacBook Pros that won't charge past one percent. The issue affects "a very small number of customers," according to Apple. If your battery is affected, you'll see a "Service Recommended" message when checking the battery health status. "If the status indicates that your battery is Normal, your battery is not affected by this issue," Apple says. To get the battery replacement started, contact Apple support. The company will examine your Mac prior to servicing it to "verify that it is eligible for the free battery replacement," Apple says. Earlier on Tuesday, Apple released macOS Big Sur 11.2.1, which is also intended to help fix charging issues with some 2016 and... |
Satechi’s new tiny double-sided wireless charger can top up your Apple Watch or AirPods Posted: 09 Feb 2021 05:35 PM PST Satechi has launched a double-sided charger that can wirelessly charge an Apple Watch or AirPods — but not both at once — while hopefully saving you from the added clutter of extra cables. The Satechi USB-C Watch AirPods Charger features a Qi charging pad shaped like an AirPods Pro charging case on one side, and a charging "puck" for an Apple Watch on the other. The charger is available now, exclusively from Apple for $49.95. Satechi's new charger has an aluminum build, white finish, and a small charging indicator light that fits right in with Apple's minimalist product design. Because of the reversible nature of USB-C, switching between Apple Watch and AirPods charging only requires pulling the charger out, flipping it over, and... |
Twitter’s Jack Dorsey wants to build an app store for social media algorithms Posted: 09 Feb 2021 04:45 PM PST Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey imagines a future where you get to choose what you see on social media by picking out your favorite recommendation algorithm, rather than relying on a single controlling company to get it exactly right. On a call with investors today, Dorsey expanded on his vision of how a decentralized social network might work — and why Twitter would want to create a network that's beyond the control of itself or any other company. Dorsey said Twitter would benefit by having access to "a much larger corpus of conversation" from which it can surface relevant content to users. "That's where we will be competitive," he said. Dorsey said Twitter is "excited to... |
Apple will let Super Healthy Kids have a pear (shaped logo) after all Posted: 09 Feb 2021 03:47 PM PST Last August, the routine story of a trademark opposition captured the world's imagination, when Apple declared that Super Healthy Kids (yes, that's the real name of a company) shouldn't be allowed to trademark its pear logo because it might "cause dilution of the distinctiveness" of Apple's own famous fruit-shaped intellectual property. Six months later, the case is now settled, and it seems Apple didn't actually have a pear-shaped problem after all — because Super Healthy Kids has agreed to change the shape of the leaf atop that pear, and Apple has agreed that's good enough to let the trademark go forward. Apple has already... |
Hyundai is getting serious about building a ‘walking car’ with four legs Posted: 09 Feb 2021 03:30 PM PST Who needs an Apple car when you've got one with four legs? Hyundai, which recently acquired a controlling stake in robot maker Boston Dynamics, rolled out a new version of its four-legged "walking car" concept that it first unveiled in 2019. Hyundai is calling it TIGER, which stands for "Transforming Intelligent Ground Excursion Robot." It's the second vehicle to come out of the automaker's Ultimate Mobility Vehicles studio in Silicon Valley, and the first designed to be fully autonomous, with no space for drivers or passengers. It's like a real-life Transformer, but without the "bent on world domination" vibe. In fact, Hyundai actually thinks its... |
Tesla’s $1.5 billion bitcoin purchase clashes with its environmental aspirations Posted: 09 Feb 2021 03:10 PM PST Tesla just gave bitcoin a big boost that's likely to result in more greenhouse gas emissions from the energy-hungry cryptocurrency. After Tesla purchased $1.5 billion in bitcoin and announced that it will accept bitcoin as payment in the future, the price of bitcoin reached an all-time high. "It's hard to imagine, frankly a more credible endorsement than one coming from folks like Elon [Musk] who are inventing the future," says Garrick Hileman, head of research at crypto asset company blockchain.com and visiting fellow at the London School of Economics. When prices are high, bitcoin "mining" — creating new coins by verifying transactions — ramps up. But even though that mining happens... |
Salesforce declares the 9-to-5 workday dead, will let some employees work remotely from now on Posted: 09 Feb 2021 03:10 PM PST Cloud computing company Salesforce is joining other Silicon Valley tech giants in announcing a substantial shift in how it allows its employees to work. In a blog post published Tuesday, the company says the "9-to-5 workday is dead" and that it will allow employees to choose one of three categories that dictate how often, if ever, they return to the office once it's safe to do so. Salesforce will also give employees more freedom to choose what their daily schedules look like. The company joins other tech firms like Facebook and Microsoft that have announced permanent work-from-home policies in response to the coronavirus pandemic. "As we enter a new year, we must continue to go forward with agility, creativity and a beginner's mind —... |
CBS All Access will stop working on older Apple TVs when Paramount Plus launches Posted: 09 Feb 2021 03:09 PM PST CBS All Access is set to transform into Paramount Plus on March 4th, but you won't be able to watch it if you own a second- or third-generation Apple TV. The company announced that it won't update its app for those devices when the streaming service relaunches next month, as spotted by MacRumors. The announcement makes CBS All Access / Paramount Plus the latest service to end support for the set-top box. YouTube announced that it will drop support starting next month, while HBO dropped the aging streaming boxes last year. The second-gen Apple TV is over a decade old (it launched in 2010), while the third-generation version was released in 2012, so it's understandable that we're starting to see a... |
AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine has been confusing from the start Posted: 09 Feb 2021 03:03 PM PST South Africa announced this week that it's stopping the use of the AstraZeneca-Oxford COVID-19 vaccine after a small study found that it wasn't effective against mild and moderate disease. Other vaccines are also less effective in South Africa, where a variant of the virus with mutations that can dodge antibodies is circulating widely. The AstraZeneca-Oxford product appears to be the worst of all, and it fell down to less than 50 percent effective (the benchmark health agencies set for COVID-19 vaccines). It's another hit for the AstraZeneca-Oxford vaccine, which has been dogged by shaky relationships with regulators and limited transparency for months. But it's also a confusing result: the small trial wasn't able to figure out if the... |
