| You can finally ‘inquire to buy’ LG’s rollable TV in the United States Posted: 14 Apr 2021 05:45 PM PDT  We may never see LG's incredible rollable phone come to market, now its smartphone days are done, but at least the rollable TV we've been eagerly tracking for years is finally making it to the United States. You can now "inquire to buy" one at the company's website, as spotted by HD Guru (via Engadget). While the company doesn't list a price, we highly doubt you'll nab one for the $60,000 originally promised; the motorized TV-in-a-box went on sale in South Korea last October for 100 million won, or over $89,000 in today's US dollars. We also wouldn't be surprised if you have to pay for more than just the TV itself, seeing how we reached the voicemail of a "custom integration specialist" when we called the provided number. While the... |
| Goodbye, funky hacks: you’ll soon be able to download albums on the Spotify desktop app Posted: 14 Apr 2021 03:13 PM PDT  Spotify's desktop app refresh seems to be rolling out to users, and it brings with it a very handy feature: album downloads. The app has supported downloading playlists to your computer for quite a while. The update should make it easier to keep your library managed if you want to keep the music going even when you're offline. It is worth noting that this feature is limited to Premium subscribers — according to Spotify's documentation, free users are only able to download podcasts. Downloading an album works similarly to downloading a playlist: just navigate to the album's page and press the download button. It should then be available the next time you go into Offline mode. This should make it easier to manage your offline library if... |
| Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine pause continues as officials ask for more data Posted: 14 Apr 2021 02:55 PM PDT  Use of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine remains paused in the United States as officials gather more information about the rare clots reported in six people who got the shot. An independent advisory committee to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said it didn't have enough information yet to say which groups might be at risk of the clots or to recommend who should get this vaccine. "I don't think we have enough information today," said Grace Lee, associate chief medical officer for practice innovation at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital in California, during the committee's meeting on Wednesday. The group will reconvene as rapidly as possible — likely next week — after gathering more data and evaluating that... |
| Windows 10’s Timeline feature is going away Posted: 14 Apr 2021 02:42 PM PDT  Windows 10 is officially losing its once-ambitious Timeline feature, Microsoft announced today. Timeline, first launched in 2017, was designed to make it easier for users to swap between multiple devices — transitioning seamlessly from a Windows 10 PC to an Android or iOS phone and back again. It's no surprise that Timeline is getting deprecated: it was a feature that heavily relied on Microsoft's Cortana assistant, which would prompt users to resume tasks from device to device. Cortana was a particularly important part of building out the Timeline experience on iOS and Android devices, where Microsoft (obviously) had less control. Given that Cortana's prevalence in Windows has been heavily diminished and the mobile apps completely... |
| Amazon, Apple, Google, and Facebook sign public letter supporting voting rights Posted: 14 Apr 2021 02:11 PM PDT  Amazon, Apple, Google parent company Alphabet, and Facebook have joined hundreds of corporations, executives, and celebrities in signing a public letter today supporting voting rights and condemning legislation that would "restrict or prevent any eligible voter from having an equal and fair opportunity to cast a ballot," The New York Times reports. The public letter appeared as a full-page ad in The New York Times and The Washington Post on Wednesday and was organized by former American Express credit card company executive Kenneth Chenault, Merck CEO Kenneth Frazier, and the Black Economic Alliance. You can see an image of the ad, shared by NYT reporter David Gelles, below: |
| Coinbase is on the Nasdaq, in case you want to bet on cryptocurrency using dollars Posted: 14 Apr 2021 02:07 PM PDT  The nice thing about Coinbase going public today is that if you want to get involved with cryptocurrency without ever leaving the almighty dollar, now you can. On Tuesday, Nasdaq set $250 as a reference price for Coinbase, though no one necessarily bought at that price because this is a direct listing. Coinbase closed trading today at $328.28, giving it a market cap of $85.8 billion, more than that of the company behind the Nasdaq exchange. It's yet another marker for how normal cryptocurrency has become — and how much easier it is for normies to get involved. Recall, if you can, the early 2000s: banking crisis, panicked market, excited cypherpunks. The idea behind bitcoin was relatively simple: it emerged from a specific distrust of... |
| MyPillow CEO’s free speech social network will ban posts that take the Lord’s name in vain Posted: 14 Apr 2021 01:45 PM PDT  After a public break with Facebook and Twitter, MyPillow founder Mike Lindell is getting close to the launch of a new conservative-focused social network, giving more detail on the project in a video posted online this week. Called simply "Frank," the social network plans to open its doors to a limited set of users on April 16th. Developed in the months since the 2020 election, Lindell has described the project as a combination of "print, radio, and TV," offering both text posts and live stream capability. Perhaps the strangest promise is that conservative personalities will have significantly more followers on the fledgling network. "People are going to have more followers," Lindell said in a March interview with Steve Bannon, "10 times... |
| Facebook pulled the page for Bitche, France because it was not Nice Posted: 14 Apr 2021 01:11 PM PDT  A city in France has had a real rollercoaster of a week, after its Facebook page was accidentally deleted for violating the terms and conditions of the site. Of course, the city of Bitche, France (in the Moselle department in northeastern France) hadn't done anything in particular to violate any of Facebook's rules — it just sounded a whole lot like it did. According to a report from Radio Mélodie (via Politico), Bitche's troubles first began on March 19th, when the city's official page — titled "Ville de Bitche," which translates to the perfectly normal "City of Bitche" — was suddenly removed. Valérie Degouy, the city's communication manager, attempted to contact Facebook to try to appeal the decision but was unsuccessful, and she... |
| Here’s how the FBI managed to get into the San Bernardino shooter’s iPhone Posted: 14 Apr 2021 12:58 PM PDT  The FBI partnered with an Australian security firm called Azimuth Security to gain access to an iPhone linked to the 2015 San Bernardino shooting, a new report from The Washington Post reveals. Before now, the methods the FBI used to get into the iPhone were kept secret. It was only clear that Apple wasn't involved, as the company had refused to build a backdoor into the phone, kicking off a legal battle that only ended after the FBI successfully hacked the phone. The phone at the center of the fight was seized after its owner, Syed Rizwan Farook, perpetrated an attack that killed 14 people. The FBI attempted to get into the phone but was unable to due to the iOS 9 feature that would erase the phone after a certain number of failed... |
