The iPad Mini doesn’t support mmWave 5G Posted: 16 Sep 2021 05:19 PM PDT ![]() Apple's newly redesigned iPad Mini was one of the most exciting announcements at its iPhone 13 event on Tuesday, but in the aftermath a limitation has been identified: As spotted by Jason Snell from Six Colors, the new iPad Mini doesn't support mmWave 5G. There's also a hint that its new A15 Bionic processor might be downclocked in comparison to the version that appears in the iPhone 13 line (via MacRumors). Support for 5G on the cellular version of the iPad Mini was one of Apple's major highlights, but looking at Apple's tech specs, while it supports low- and mid-band 5G, it doesn't offer mmWave. Apple first started playing into the 5G hype machine with the launch of the iPhone 12, and continues to tout the faster download and upload... |
Guillermo Del Toro’s next film Nightmare Alley is carnival meets noir in its first teaser Posted: 16 Sep 2021 05:11 PM PDT ![]() Guillermo Del Toro's next film Nightmare Alley is a bit of departure for the director. The new teaser trailer released by Searchlight Pictures on Thursday sees the Oscar award-winning filmmaker trading in his fascination with the supernatural for an R-rated noir set in and around a carnival. Nightmare Alley stars Bradley Cooper as Stanton Carlisle, a nightclub mind reader who becomes tangled up with Cate Blanchett as Dr. Lilith Ritter, a psychiatrist out to debunk him as a fraud. The teaser trailer itself manages to be plenty tense without Del Toro's usual monsters, featuring carnival sideshows, Willem Dafoe as some kind of ringleader, Blanchett as an obvious femme fatale, and what looks like a live electrocution. You can see for... |
Cameo Calls let you have a video meet-and-greet with a celebrity Posted: 16 Sep 2021 03:50 PM PDT ![]() Cameo is adding a new live calls feature into its app. Cameo is perhaps most well-known for letting you pay for pre-recorded video messages from celebrities, but the new feature, called Cameo Calls, will let you have short video conversations that are designed to be like meet-and-greets. (The app even sets up a photo op at the end of the call.) The Cameo Calls page has a full list of whose available for conversations and how much it costs for a certain amount of their time. Cameo says that calls can last up to 15 minutes and that the average price for a call is $31. When I looked, I saw that most people offer two or three minutes per call, and prices ranged dramatically. (The highest fee I saw was $225 for a 10-minute call with Vanessa... |
Streaming service Locast permanently barred from operation Posted: 16 Sep 2021 03:01 PM PDT ![]() Things looked bad for Locast before, and they just got even worse. A judge this week permanently prohibited streamer Locast from continuing operations of its business, a decision that follows a yearslong legal standoff between major broadcasters and the scrappy streaming provider. A permanent injunction order signed by Judge Louis L. Stanton this week stated that Locast founder David Goodfriend and his nonprofit Sports Fans Coalition NY, which operates the Locast service, "are permanently restrained and enjoined from operating" the free TV streaming service. The injunction follows a series of rapid-succession developments that have led to Locast's apparent demise, after the big four broadcasters suing the company — ABC, CBS, Fox, and... |
The bitter lawsuit hanging over the Apple Watch’s new swipe keyboard Posted: 16 Sep 2021 02:14 PM PDT ![]() Apple allegedly offered to buy his app; instead, it's being Sherlocked |
Hundreds of T-Mobile stores will be able to fix phones soon Posted: 16 Sep 2021 02:14 PM PDT ![]() T-Mobile announced that 500 of its retail stores would start offering repair services starting on November 1st. The company says technicians will provide same-day fixes using manufacturer-approved parts to customers who subscribe to its Protection<360> service, which also includes device replacement in case of loss or theft. T-Mobile is also improving that device protection plan by letting customers make five claims in a 12-month period, up from the previous limit of three. The claims are handled by Assurant and come with a deductible based on what kind of phone you have and what kind of claim you're making. Still, it's likely to be cheaper than buying five new phones if you wind up having an 18-karat run of bad luck. |
Home Assistant Amber is a ready-to-use smart home platform Posted: 16 Sep 2021 01:40 PM PDT ![]() Home Assistant, the powerful-yet-prickly smart home automation platform, is finally moving toward the mainstream. Nabu Casa, the company behind the free, open-source software, has launched Home Assistant Amber, its first ready-to-use hub that can run Home Assistant software out of the box. Unlike with prior methods of using Home Assistant, there's minimal programming required and no need to build your own computer when you have the Amber. Debuting on the creators' crowdfunding platform Crowd Supply this week, the $149 box is designed for both beginners and experienced HA fans. Shipping is targeted for June 2022, provided the $140,000 funding goal is met (it's about a third of the way there as of publish). |

Helen Mirren finds a side door into Harry Potter with a new game show Posted: 16 Sep 2021 12:46 PM PDT ![]() Dame Helen Mirren is a wizard, reader. Or a witch. Or maybe a concerned Muggle? The details don't really matter; either way, the Oscar award-winning actress is hosting a new Harry Potter quiz show later this year to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the film series. Harry Potter: Hogwarts Tournament of Houses will be simultaneously broadcast on Cartoon Network and TBS, with plans to eventually stream on HBO Max as well, WarnerMedia announced Wednesday. The four-part special "will unveil Wizarding World fans willing to put their Harry Potter knowledge to the test for the ultimate honor to be named House Cup champion," according to WarnerMedia. Mirren will shepherd the latest expansion of the Harry Potter franchise and lend "some British... |
OpenSea’s product chief is out after insider NFT flipping accusations Posted: 16 Sep 2021 11:05 AM PDT ![]() OpenSea head of product Nate Chastain, who was recently accused of a form of NFT insider trading, appears to no longer be working for the company. His Twitter bio now includes the phrase "Past: @opensea." OpenSea has not publicly named the employee involved in the incident, but CEO Devin Finzer says the NFT trading platform asked for and received their resignation. Yesterday, Finzer put up a blog post saying an employee used knowledge gained from working at the company to purchase NFTs that were about to be posted to the popular trading site's homepage (and would thus likely go up in value). While an investigation is apparently still ongoing, OpenSea does say that it's implemented clearer rules to prevent employees from doing this kind... |
