| Roblox is back online after an outage that lasted three days Posted: 31 Oct 2021 03:24 PM PDT  After an outage that began Thursday evening, Roblox appeared to be back online Sunday evening. The company said in a tweet at about 4PM ET Sunday that it was "incrementally bringing regions back online."
The problems began October 28th around 7PM ET, when the platform first reported it was having issues, and said it was "working hard to get things back to normal." Some speculated that the outage was caused by a cross-promotion with Chipotle that went live about a half hour before the problems began, but the company said the outage was "not related to any specific experiences or partnerships on... |
| Apple’s app tracking policy reportedly cost social media platforms nearly $10 billion Posted: 31 Oct 2021 03:13 PM PDT  An investigation by The Financial Times found that Snapchat, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube lost around $9.85 billion in revenue following Apple's changes to its privacy practices. Last year, Apple announced the App Tracking Transparency (ATT) policy that requires apps to ask permission to track users' data. The policy went into effect in April, barring apps from tracking users if they opt out. Facebook notably criticized the move with a full-page newspaper ad, and thanks to the FT's report, now we know why company leaders were so frustrated. According to the report, Facebook lost the most money "in absolute terms" when compared to other social platforms due to its massive size. Meanwhile, Snap "fared the worst as a percentage of its... |
| Leaked images show ASUS may be releasing a Surface Pro competitor that docks to an external GPU Posted: 31 Oct 2021 02:55 PM PDT  ASUS may be releasing a successor to the ROG Flow X13, the convertible laptop that doubles as a gaming PC. Evan Blass (@evleaks), a reliable leaker, tweeted out a photo of the ROG Flow Z13 — at a glance, it looks fairly similar to the new Microsoft Surface Pro 8. If the leaked ROG Flow Z13 is anything like the X13, we already know how it may perform. The X13, a convertible laptop, can be connected to ASUS' external graphics card (eGPU) called the XG Mobile, which we found to boost the lightweight convertible's performance.
The eGPU also serves as a USB dock with a number of ports, transforming the 13-inch convertible into a... |
| Leaked Lenovo Thinkbook Plus image shows a second screen next to the keyboard Posted: 31 Oct 2021 01:40 PM PDT  Reliable tech gadget leaker Evan Blass (@evleaks) on Sunday posted an image to Twitter that showed a 17-inch Lenovo ThinkBook Plus with a second screen to the right of the keyboard. The screen looks like it is being used to draw or write on a color image on the laptop's main screen, and appears that the computer would include a full keyboard and a large trackpad along with an extra-wide display. The image also shows what looks like a pen or drawing stylus, giving further credence to the idea that it's meant for drawing.
There weren't any further details about the image, which Blass posted as part of a thread... |
| New Trailers: The Wheel of Time, The Witcher, Lightyear, House of Gucci, and more Posted: 31 Oct 2021 10:41 AM PDT  I'm close to giving up on The Morning Show; the latest episode spends a lot of time building up to a twist that makes very little sense given the season so far. They only have three episodes left and a lot of plot to push forward. Luckily, Succession is getting good and juicy with the Roy siblings choosing sides, and I'm also getting caught up in Maid, mainly because of Margaret Qualley's strong performance as Alex. So much to watch, so little time. We're heavy into the sci-fi and fantasy realms in this week's roundup, but there's a little fashion and murder-mystery as well. The Wheel of TimeWe've seen a few glimpses of The Wheel of Time series based on the books by Robert Jordan, but this latest trailer shows us the beginning of... |
| Google Home app gets new Photo Frame settings and possible Weather Frog display option Posted: 31 Oct 2021 09:37 AM PDT  Google Home, the companion app for Google's smart home products, is changing the way users interact with photos on the app and on Nest Hub devices. 9to5Google first noticed the changes, which include a revamped Photo Frame settings menu. Now, when you use Google Home to change the displayed album while your Nest Hub is idle, you'll see a carousel-style UI that gives you the option to choose from curated groups of photos, categorized as "Select family & friends," "Recent highlights," and "Favorites," 9to5Google reports. Scroll past that, and you'll be able to see all the albums that you've created. A preview window appears at the bottom of the page, and you can swipe through the preview carousel to see how your pictures will look when... |
| Go read this story about how online orders are burning out Chipotle workers Posted: 31 Oct 2021 08:12 AM PDT  Chipotle is a pioneer of the fast assembly-line restaurant format, where you get in line and guide a human worker through the process to build your meal while you watch. It's a foolproof system, or so I thought before I checked out this investigative story by MarketWatch revealing how Chipotle is handling the growth of online orders in a pandemic world. Once I read the accounts of various Chipotle employees interviewed in the MarketWatch article, I was stunned by what they really go through. One employee detailed the struggle with the onslaught of online orders:

| Apple quietly discontinues the 21.5-inch Intel-powered iMac Posted: 31 Oct 2021 07:40 AM PDT  Apple has apparently pulled its 21.5-inch Intel-based iMac from shelves (via MacRumors). Its discontinuation doesn't come as much of a surprise, now that Apple is transitioning from using Intel processors to its in-house M1 chip. The 21.5-inch iMac was still available after Apple's October 18th Unleashed event — it didn't appear to go missing until sometime this week, according to MacRumors. The $1,099 21.5-inch iMac, which came with a 2.3GHz dual-core 7th-Gen Intel Core i5 and an Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640, is no longer found on the list of available iMacs on Apple's online store. A "Buy" button also doesn't appear for the 21.5-inch iMac on Apple's product comparison page. We reached out to Apple to confirm the changes, but didn't... |
| Mac-shaped pillow makers are back so you can cover your couch in computers Posted: 31 Oct 2021 06:00 AM PDT  A company called Throwboy is back with another Kickstarter for a collection of pillows shaped like classic Macs, following its 2018 line of Apple-inspired plushes. It's fittingly called The Iconic Pillow Collection 2, and features pillows shaped like soft versions of Apple's Lisa, iBook, and both the cheese grater and cube flavors of Power Mac. For Apple history buffs who want to spruce up their living or bedrooms, it may be a campaign worth investigating. In its original collection (which featured pillows shaped like the Finder icon, original Macintosh, and iPods), Throwboy tactfully didn't mention specific computer names, and it refrained from doing so this time around as well. The Lisa-shaped pillow is called the 1983, the iMac... |
