| SpaceX rocket debris lands on man’s farm in Washington Posted: 02 Apr 2021 03:05 PM PDT  A pressure vessel from a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket stage fell on a man's farm in Washington State last week, leaving a "4-inch dent in the soil," the local sheriff's office said Friday. The black Composite-Overwrapped Pressure Vessel, or COPV, was a remnant from the alien invasion-looking breakup of a Falcon 9 second stage over Oregon and Washington on March 26, local officials said. The stage reentered the atmosphere in an unusual spot in the sky after sending a payload of SpaceX's Starlink satellites to orbit. A Grant County, Washington property owner, who told authorities he didn't want to be identified, found the errant COPV — roughly the size and shape of a hefty punching bag — sitting on his farm one morning last weekend. He reported... |
| Google is limiting which apps can see everything else you have installed Posted: 02 Apr 2021 02:47 PM PDT  Google will soon be more selective about which apps on the Play Store can see all of the other apps you have installed (via XDA-Developers). As Ars Technica points out, your list of installed apps, innocent as it seems, can communicate to developers personal traits like dating preferences and political affiliations. So starting on May 5th, 2021, developers will have to provide a very good reason for why Google should let you access info like that. Android 11 apps that currently request the "QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES" permission can see the full list of apps you have stored on your device. But Google recently updated its Developer Program Policy and now considers that info to be "personal and sensitive user data," restricting which apps are... |
| Two Coinbase employees exchanged NFT rings with their wedding vows Posted: 02 Apr 2021 02:40 PM PDT  Two Coinbase employees have managed to find a heartwarming use for NFTs by incorporating them into their wedding, exchanging the digital tokens as part of the ceremony. Rebecca Rose and Peter Kacherginsky say that alongside their traditional Jewish ceremony, the couple also sent each other digital tokens as "virtual rings" to each other. In a Twitter thread about the wedding, Rose said that their virtual rings now exist on the blockchain "for all to see as proof of our commitment to each other." ... |
| Spotify leaks another look at the Car Thing, this time from within in its own app Posted: 02 Apr 2021 02:01 PM PDT  Spotify's much-anticipated in-car gadget, a voice-controlled music player known colloquially as the Car Thing, has just shown up in a handful of in-app renders unearthed by MacRumors contributor Steve Moser, who found the images in Spotify's app code. These renders match up quite closely with photographs of the real deal submitted as part of filings to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which The Verge reported back in January. Thanks to these renders, we have a much cleaner look at the evolved Spotify Car Thing design, which includes a large knob on the right, a color screen, and four buttons on top. Earlier official company renders from back when the product was formally announced in 2019 showed off a much smaller screen. Y... |
| Google’s next Pixels will reportedly switch to a custom in-house GS101 processor Posted: 02 Apr 2021 01:30 PM PDT  Google's next Pixel flagship — the presumably named "Pixel 6" — will reportedly feature a Google-designed GS101 "Whitechapel" SoC (system on a chip), a first for the company, as reported by 9to5Google and XDA-Developers. 9to5Google's report claims Google is working on two phones that will feature the Arm-based GS101 — presumed to be a flagship device to succeed last year's Pixel 5 and a Pixel 4A 5G follow-up. XDA's report, meanwhile, goes into further detail on the new SoC, claiming the GS101 chips will feature a "three cluster setup with a TPU (Tensor Processing Unit)" for machine learning applications. (For reference, Qualcomm's own flagship Snapdragon 888 uses Arm's Cortex-X1 / Cortex-A78 / Cortex-A55 as a triple cluster CPU setup.)... |
| The latest in the global semiconductor shortage Posted: 02 Apr 2021 12:54 PM PDT  From consoles to cars, it seems like everyone is having a hard time getting enough chips |
| Microsoft Build will take place May 25th–27th Posted: 02 Apr 2021 12:42 PM PDT  Microsoft has updated its events website to reveal the dates of Microsoft Build 2021. Per the new listing, the annual conference will take place from May 25th–27th this year. It will also be held virtually, along with many of Microsoft's 2021 events. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed the dates to The Verge. "Please stay tuned for more information to come," the spokesperson said. "Microsoft Build is where developers, architects, start-ups, and students learn, connect, and code together, sharing knowledge and expanding their skillset, while exploring new ways of innovating for tomorrow," the website reads. |
| Go read Bloomberg’s interactive and educational breakdown of the semiconductor shortage Posted: 02 Apr 2021 12:39 PM PDT  The global chip shortage has been a growing concern in the tech industry (and it has even grabbed the interest of the US president) as it starts to affect the production of more and more products, from cars to graphics cards to game consoles. For a great explanation of all the factors that have led to the shortage, you should read Bloomberg's breakdown. It digs into factors like pandemic-fueled demand and the small number of companies actually able to produce the chips that now power so much of our digital lives. One of the most interesting features of the article is an interactive graphic that shows the customers and industries that make use of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), which gives a great idea of the scale and... |
| Dish is begging authorities for help with T-Mobile’s CDMA shutdown looming Posted: 02 Apr 2021 12:23 PM PDT  Dish Network issued a new letter to the Federal Communications Commission this week, as reported by Axios, highlighting the urgent situation it faces if T-Mobile moves ahead with its planned January 2022 CDMA network shutdown. "We believe that T-Mobile's actions raise significant competition and public interest concerns," the letter states. It would be a blow to Dish's business, but most importantly, millions of Boost Mobile customers would feel the impact as a result. Boost Mobile, a former Sprint MVNO sold to Dish as part of T-Mobile's acquisition, serves 9 million customers. According to the letter, more than half of them rely on CDMA service. Its prepaid service is an accessible alternative to contract plans for low-income customers;... |
| Google Wifi router management is getting rolled into the Google Home app Posted: 02 Apr 2021 11:56 AM PDT  Google is killing off its dedicated Google Wifi app for managing its routers, rolling that functionality over to the Google Home app as the company continues to "help our customers control and manage all their connected products in one place and enable routines across them." The switchover to the Google Home app will come in two phases: first, Google will disable most of the functionality of the Google Wifi app on May 25th. Starting then, users will only be able to view the current status of their networks — but any changes, including adding new routers or access points — will have to be done in the Google Home app. Then, sometime in... |
