| COVID-19 patients only need to isolate for five days as long as symptoms are gone, CDC says Posted: 27 Dec 2021 02:30 PM PST  People who test positive for COVID-19 only need to isolate for five days as long as their symptoms have stopped, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Monday. The change to isolation guidelines from 10 days to five is based on data showing people with COVID-19 are most likely to be contagious to others during the few days before and after they start showing symptoms, the agency said in a statement. After leaving isolation, people should wear a mask around others for five additional days, the CDC said. The CDC also said Monday that people who haven't received a booster dose of a COVID-19 vaccine but received their second dose of an mRNA vaccine six months ago, or who received a Johnson & Johnson vaccine two months ago,... |
| Apple Stores across NYC are only open if you’re picking up an online order Posted: 27 Dec 2021 01:57 PM PST  As initially reported by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, all of New York City's Apple Stores have joined the list of locations closing their doors to most customers amid a spike in the number of COVID-19 infections. Last week, Apple closed seven stores in North America in a single day as positive tests among employees rose, and MacRumors points out that even before this announcement, the Apple website listed more than 20 locations that were closed today due to the effects of the pandemic. For people in New York City, the stores are still accessible if you have an appointment to pick up an online order. All other services, like its Genius Bar tech support or shopping... |
| Messy NFT drop angers infosec pioneers with unauthorized portraits Posted: 27 Dec 2021 01:14 PM PST  An unauthorized NFT drop celebrating infosec pioneers has collapsed into a mess of conflicting takedowns and piracy. Released on Christmas Day by a group called "ItsBlockchain," the "Cipher Punks" NFT package included portraits of 46 distinct figures, with ten copies of each token. Taken at their opening price, the full value of the drop was roughly $4,000. But almost immediately, the infosec community began to raise objections — including some from the portrait subjects themselves. The portrait images misspelled several names — including EFF speech activist Jillian York and OpenPGP creator Jon Callas — and based at least one drawing on a copyright-protected photograph. More controversially, the list included some figures who have been... |
| The Batman’s latest trailer introduces the Riddler as a FaceTime troll Posted: 27 Dec 2021 01:11 PM PST  A new trailer for The Batman gives us a glimpse at Catwoman's "thing" for stray cats and the Riddler's affinity for FaceTime. What's promised as an even grittier take on Batman stars Robert Pattinson as Batman, Zoë Kravitz as Catwoman, and Paul Dano as the Riddler. The two-and-a-half-minute teaser, appropriately titled "The Bat and the Cat," highlights the relationship between Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle, who don't always appear to get along. In one scene, Batman is commenting on the — apparently concerning — number of cats Catwoman has in her home, and in the next, the duo is sparring in a low-lit office. The pair comes together by the end of the trailer, with both battling the same bad guys. |
| Motorola will try foldable phones again with a third-generation Razr Posted: 27 Dec 2021 11:04 AM PST  Motorola is working on a new version of its Razr foldable smartphones, according to a Weibo post spotted by Android Authority. The post is from Chen Jin, the general manager of the Lenovo Mobile Business Group in China (Lenovo is currently in charge of Motorola's smartphone business), and describes how the company has been quietly working on a new addition to its lineup of foldable phones. It doesn't have big shoes to fill — Motorola's first two modern foldables were mediocre phones with hefty price tags. We ran Jin's post through a few translation sites, and while some parts didn't make the jump to English, there are consistent details that show up in all the translations. The post mentions that the phone will have a better processor,... |
| California is suing Walmart over alleged improper disposal of e-waste and other hazardous materials Posted: 27 Dec 2021 09:18 AM PST  Last week, the California attorney general and 12 state officials filed a lawsuit against Walmart, saying it allegedly illegally disposed of electronic and hazardous waste, compromising local landfills. California Attorney General Rob Bonta alleges in a statement the company violated state environmental laws with their practices, and the waste included materials like lithium and alkaline batteries, insect killer sprays, aerosol cans, LED lightbulbs, and more. State investigators conducted 58 inspections across 13 counties from 2015 to 2021 and said they found classified hazardous and medical waste in each store's trash compactors, as well as customer information that should have been rendered indecipherable. The California DOJ... |
| Zoom’s latest acquisition connects professional broadcast tools for large-scale events Posted: 27 Dec 2021 08:58 AM PST  Zoom has acquired the Zoom-based broadcast tools created by the startup Liminal, along with two of the company's co-founders, the videoconferencing platform announced in a post on its blog. Liminal's add-ons, ZoomOSC and ZoomISO, are built for creating professional virtual events, which Zoom will likely natively integrate into its software as part of the acquisition.

Meanwhile, ZoomISO allows you to... |
| Final Fantasy XVI’s next big reveal won’t come until spring 2022 after six months of COVID-19 delays Posted: 27 Dec 2021 08:18 AM PST  Final Fantasy XVI is the latest game to be hit by COVID-related development delays, with the game's producer Naoki Yoshida announcing in a letter posted to Twitter that work on the upcoming PlayStation 5 RPG has been set back by about six months. Furthermore, Yoshida announced that the next major reveal for the upcoming title — originally promised for sometime in 2021 — is now being pushed out to sometime in spring 2022.
It's not too surprising that Final Fantasy XVI has been hit by delays. As the first flagship Final Fantasy game for a next-generation console, the development... |
| XPG imagines a gaming mouse that can also store 1TB of games Posted: 27 Dec 2021 08:07 AM PST  XPG has announced the XPG Vault, a "concept" mouse that has a built-in SSD to let you carry around your mouse and storage in one package (via Engadget). While lots of gaming mice have some built-in storage to let you easily carry macros and preferences from computer to computer, and the concept of a mouse doubling as a flash drive has been around for over a decade, XPG is aiming a little higher. It's promising "to make your gaming libraries conveniently portable," right from your mouse. There aren't many details for the Vault in XPG's press release, but XPG says the "current prototype can integrate up to 1TB of Solid State memory running at 985MB/s" and connects with USB-C. Given that it's a wired mouse, that performance seems possible —... |
| Spyware scandal rocks Polish government Posted: 27 Dec 2021 07:26 AM PST  Several members of political opposition groups in Poland have produced evidence that they were hacked by Pegasus spyware, raising alarming questions about the Polish government's use of the software. The most alarming case involved the leader of Poland's Civic Platform party, Senator Krzysztof Brejza, whose phone was compromised a total of 33 times in the six months leading up to the 2019 election, as reported by the Associated Press. During the campaign, Polish state media published damaging text messages obtained from Brejza's phone, leading to concerns that spyware had been used. The compromises were discovered by Citizen Lab, a spyware research group based at the University of... |
