| Amazon adds AirPlay 2 and HomeKit to two Fire TV Edition TVs Posted: 14 Jul 2021 06:12 PM PDT  Amazon is adding support for AirPlay 2 and HomeKit to two of its Fire TV Edition TVs in a free update, the company announced on Wednesday. Both the 2020 Toshiba 4K UHD Smart Fire TV with Dolby Vision and the 2020 Insignia 4K UHD Smart TV will receive the features, before they arrive on Amazon's less expensive Fire TV sticks and set-top boxes. On these specific TV sets, AirPlay 2 should function the same on Apple's own Apple TV, allowing you to send audio and video from your phone, tablet, or computer to the big screen and control playback from your device. Integrating with HomeKit, Apple's smart home ecosystem, requires a little extra legwork: you'll have to enable HomeKit in your TV's settings under Display & Sounds > AirPlay & HomeKit... |
| Netflix snags former EA, Oculus exec to lead its video game efforts Posted: 14 Jul 2021 03:55 PM PDT  A report this spring from The Information said that Netflix was seeking an executive to lead its push into gaming, with an eye toward offering an Apple Arcade or Xbox Game Pass-like subscription bundle. Now, as first reported by Bloomberg, the streaming company has hired Mike Verdu as its vice president of game development reporting to COO Greg Peters. A Netflix spokesperson confirmed the hire to The Verge. According to Bloomberg, Netflix could offer games right next to its other streaming content "within the next year" listed as a new genre just like documentaries or anything else, without charging extra for the experience. Verdu is a former exec who has experience with mobile gaming companies like Zynga, ran EA Mobile for a year, and... |
| Microsoft attributes new SolarWinds attack to a Chinese hacker group Posted: 14 Jul 2021 03:03 PM PDT  Microsoft's Threat Intelligence Center (MSTIC) reported on Tuesday that SolarWinds software was attacked with a zero-day exploit by a group of hackers it calls "DEV-0322." The hackers were focused on SolarWinds' Serv-U FTP software, with the presumed goal of accessing the company's clients in the US defense industry. The zero-day attack was first spotted in a routine Microsoft 365 Defender scan. The software noticed an "anomalous malicious process" that Microsoft explains in more detail in its blog, but it seems the hackers were attempting to make themselves Serv-U administrators, among other suspicious activity. SolarWinds reported the zero-day exploit on Friday, July 9th, explaining that all of the... |
| OnePlus says the base OnePlus 9 Pro actually won’t be sold in North America Posted: 14 Jul 2021 03:00 PM PDT  The OnePlus 9 Pro went on sale on April 2nd, but to date, the $969 base model, which comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, hasn't been available to actually buy in North America. The company had told Android Police on April 3rd that the base version was still on the way, but now, according to a new statement given to Android Police, it actually won't make its way to the US or Canada due to "unforeseen supply constraints." Here's the full statement, from Android Police:

| GM says two Chevy Bolts caught fire after getting recall fix Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:50 PM PDT  General Motors said Wednesday that two recent Bolt EV fires happened in vehicles that had already received the fix meant to prevent the battery pack from igniting, raising new questions about the recall announced last year. In the meantime, the automaker is warning owners of 2017-2019 model year Bolts not to charge the electric cars overnight, and to park them outside in case they catch fire. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued the same warning to owners late Wednesday, too. The safety agency said is still investigating the problem, that it's looking into the two new fires, and said owners can enter their VIN number here to check to see if their Bolt is included in the recall. GM recalled nearly 69,000 Bolt EVs in... |
| Plex’s free TV service gets 15 new channels Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:44 PM PDT  Plex, the popular build-your-own streaming service, has added 15 new channels to its ad-supported streaming offering for free TV. All of the new channels available on Plex's free Live TV feed arrive on the service today, and most will be available globally (though a spokesperson told The Verge that some are available in Latin America or the US only). Plex originally launched the free TV feature last year as a collection of pre-programmed, continuous channels rather than traditional over-the-air streams. So it's not quite live TV, but it does offer a similar linear experience if you're just looking to throw something on. Of these new channels, some notable additions include MMA TV, USA Today, USA Today Sportswire, and the Tribeca Channel.... |
| Here are the best Kindle deals right now Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:43 PM PDT  When it comes to finding a device to use to read your ebooks, you have a few options to choose from. You can always buy a tablet or use your smartphone, but those devices are multipurpose and can be used for a ton of things, like surfing the web or doom-scrolling on Twitter. If you are looking for something to strictly read books, e-readers, while niche, are designed to store all of your books in a virtual library with limited functionality. Amazon, having helped pioneer the e-reader, has dominated the space for years with its Kindle lineup, which consists of three unique models with their own pros and cons. Below, we've listed each model currently available for purchase. Sometimes, there isn't a deal for one, or any, of the products.... |
| WhatsApp multi-device beta allows four devices at once even without a phone Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:31 PM PDT  Until now, using WhatsApp web on your desktop or any other device has required having a phone that's powered on and connected, but a new beta test is trying out support for multiple devices without needing a phone in the mix. In a June interview, WhatsApp head Will Cathcart and his boss, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, commented on the technical challenge of maintaining end-to-end encryption. With a blog post today, Cathcart explains more about what has been done behind the scenes to maintain security. As the image comparing the legacy and new systems (above) tries to explain, previously, a user's phone managed the key determining their identity and ability to... |
| Facebook is giving up on brain-typing as an AR glasses interface Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:05 PM PDT  A Facebook-backed initiative aiming to let people type by thinking has concluded with new findings published today. Project Steno was a multi-year collaboration between Facebook and the University of California San Francisco's Chang Lab, aiming to create a system that translates brain activity into words. A new research paper, published in The New England Journal of Medicine, shows potential for implementing the technology for people with speech impairments. But alongside the research, Facebook made clear it is backing off the idea of a commercial head-mounted brain-reading device, and building out wrist-worn interfaces instead. The new research has no clear applicability for a mass-market tech product, and in a press release, Facebook... |
| YouTube borrows three more features from Twitch Posted: 14 Jul 2021 01:11 PM PDT  YouTube is adding a trio of new features for live-streaming today that are all standbys for streamers on Twitch. Streamers will now be able to limit their chats to subscribers only, they'll be able to create polls inside of their chats, and they and their viewers will now be able to create clips from popular gaming streams. These features have been around for a while on Twitch, and they're all important tools to let streamers engage with their community. Limiting chats to subscribers only can help as a moderation tool by weeding out people who are just popping by, and it gives streamers another tool to encourage their viewers to start paying. And polls are useful for engaging with the often-chaotic chatrooms, giving streamers a simple... |
