Android 12’s last beta brings a few makeovers and new widgets Posted: 08 Sep 2021 05:57 PM PDT Today, Google released the final Android 12 beta before the OS properly launches, and with it a few of the visual changes and features we saw back when Android 12 was announced. Some of the notable inclusions in Beta 5 are the lovely geometric clock widgets, a redesigned calculator, and a new lock screen shortcut. The clock app has also gotten some tweaks, according to 9to5Google, with an updated design, new animations, and (of course) colors that are responsive to your phone's theme. 9to5Google also reports that Beta 5 brings the promised Material You overhaul for the calculator app as well, complete with pastel colors and more playful buttons. Here's new vs. old: |

Here are the best Kindle deals right now Posted: 08 Sep 2021 03:44 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.... |
Google settles with worker allegedly fired for his workplace activism Posted: 08 Sep 2021 02:59 PM PDT Google reached a settlement with a fired employee who the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) claims was let go from the company for his workplace activism, Bloomberg reports. The employee, Laurence Berland, was fired in 2019 allegedly for violating Google's data security policies. He had been a vocal critic of Google's work with the US Customs and Border Protection and was terminated amid internal organizing. The settlement was approved in July by the NLRB, though the terms haven't been revealed, according to Bloomberg. Google hasn't replied to a request for comment from The Verge. The NLRB has accused Google of violating labor law in firing Berland and four other workers in 2019 over organizing activities and is still battling Google... |
Robinhood opens up a slow and steady approach to crypto investing Posted: 08 Sep 2021 02:55 PM PDT Robinhood is rolling out a new feature that lets you automatically invest in cryptocurrencies on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule. The investment app says this service will let you automatically invest in things like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, and other supported cryptocurrencies without a commission fee. Before we go any further, though, I should warn you that nothing in this article is qualified or expert financial advice. It's probably wise to talk with an expert who can help you come up with an investment strategy that's right for you. Robinhood's approach here is automatic investing, not trading. It won't sell the crypto for you when an algorithm decides it'd make financial sense to do so. Instead, it's just steadily building... |
Addison Rae signs Netflix film deal after going from TikTok to He’s All That Posted: 08 Sep 2021 02:52 PM PDT Netflix is doubling down on TikTok star Addison Rae with a new multi-picture film deal that could see the social media celebrity bringing even more eyes to the streaming service, As part of the deal, Netflix will develop projects specifically for Rae to star in and executive produce (via Variety). The motivation seems to be the early success of He's All That, the gender-swapped remake of She's All That, which was first announced in September 2020. The company projects the film will be watched by more than 55 million households in the first month of release and says it reached #1 on the company's chart "in 78 countries, including Brazil, France, and Saudi Arabia." Critical reception to He's All That has been mixed, from surprisingly... |
The LAPD built collecting social media info into its interview process for civilians Posted: 08 Sep 2021 02:24 PM PDT The Los Angeles Police Department asked officers to gather social media information as a standard part of their interviews with civilians, whether or not the people were implicated in a crime. The practice, revealed in public records obtained by the Brennan Center for Justice, is part of a larger LAPD social media monitoring strategy — one that's similar to other US police department policies but may go beyond them. As the Brennan Center notes, a 2015 memo from LAPD Police Chief Charlie Beck told the department that "similar to a nickname or an alias, a person's online persona or identity used for social media and communication can be highly beneficial to investigations and possibly even future outreach programs." Beck said that officers... |
Jeff Bezos’ Earth Fund pledges $150 million to climate justice groups Posted: 08 Sep 2021 02:08 PM PDT Jeff Bezos' $10 billion Earth Fund just doled out millions more in funding to groups fighting off climate change. This time, a lot of the cash is going to groups that advocate for communities of color and low-income neighborhoods, which often face the first and worst effects of climate change and fossil fuel pollution. The fund announced a total of $203.7 million in new grants today. Of that, more than $53 million will go toward communications on climate change and efforts to cut emissions from businesses. Another $20 million will go to groups focused on climate justice — a movement to stop climate change from taking a disproportionate toll on already marginalized communities. |
