| We’re happy to inform you that Apple isn’t requiring verification for education discounts anymore Posted: 21 Jan 2022 01:57 PM PST  At some point in the last month, Apple introduced a new verification process in the US that tried to ensure customers who want to benefit from its discounted education pricing are actually involved in education. Now Apple has removed the verification process, as confirmed in tests by The Verge, and backed up by reports from MacRumors and 9to5Mac. When it was in place, customers had to verify that they actually qualified for an education discount using Unidays' third-party verification service. It's possible that the verification requirement, which was spotted by Reddit users, will return. Apple already has verification processes in place in other countries, like the UK. The company didn't immediately respond to The Verge's request for... |
| Ozzy Osbourne’s NFT project shared a scam link, and followers lost thousands of dollars Posted: 21 Jan 2022 12:36 PM PST  When a pop-cultural icon like Ozzy Osbourne announces an NFT collection, you can count on the project getting publicity. The launch of the "CryptoBatz" collection, a series of 9,666 digital bats, received coverage in outlets like Billboard, Rolling Stone, NME, Hypebeast, and Business Insider, among others. But just two days after the tokens were minted, supporters are being targeted by a phishing scam that drains cryptocurrency from their wallets, playing off a bad link shared by the project's official Twitter account. Like the majority of NFT projects, CryptoBatz uses Discord as a place to organize its community. The official CryptoBatz Discord is now accessed through the short link discord.gg/cryptobatz. But previously, the project... |
| Picard’s first season 2 trailer has Guinan going for it Posted: 21 Jan 2022 11:45 AM PST  Just when it seemed like Patrick Stewart's Jean-Luc Picard might have been ready to bid the galaxy farewell, Star Trek: Picard gave the legendary space explorer a second shot at life that raised some questions about just who and what he is now. While first trailer for Picard's second season doesn't directly answer any of them, it brings back one of the few characters perfectly suited to help guide Picard and his allies through this next chapter of their journeys. Beyond getting the recently resurrected Jean-Luc and his fellow explorers back aboard La Sirena and in the depths of space they long for, Star Trek: Picard's second season is also about to send its heroes into the existential deep in as they embark upon a journey spanning across... |
| How to protect your PC from ransomware using Windows’ built-in protection Posted: 21 Jan 2022 11:06 AM PST  Ransomware — malware that prevents you from accessing your files unless you pay the hacker that infected your computer — has been an issue plaguing computer users and businesses for years. Given its prevalence and the fact that a ransomware infection can lead to the loss of valuable files like documents or family pictures, it's a good idea to make sure you're protected. Starting with Windows 10, Microsoft has added features to its built-in Windows Security software that can help keep your computer safe from ransomware. As far as ransomware is concerned, there are two levels to Windows Security. The first consists of malware scans, which are on by default, and which you can learn more about here. While this will work to keep ransomware... |
| Nike’s accessible ACG Gaiadome FlyEase Boot will be for athletes only Posted: 21 Jan 2022 10:54 AM PST  For the upcoming Beijing Winter Olympics, Nike announced Friday that it's designed inclusive and accessible gear for Team USA Olympians and Paralympians to wear on the medal stand. That includes the new ACG Gaiadome FlyEase Boot, which can be slipped on and secured one-handed. The only issue is it seems to have inherited the FlyEase's limited availability as well. While the rest of the 'fit will be available for purchase, the Gaiadome boot will be an athlete exclusive. "For the official Team USA Medal Stand look in Beijing, we worked closely with the disability community, including current and former winter and summer Paralympians, in our design and testing process, and used inclusive design principles and methods to create gear that... |
| Light sensors on wearables struggle with dark skin and obesity Posted: 21 Jan 2022 10:37 AM PST  Light sensors used to track heart rate in wearable devices like the Apple Watch Series 5 and the Fitbit Versa 2 don't work as well on darker skin or people with obesity, according to modeling done in a new study. That's a problem for features currently built into devices — but it's also a bad sign for efforts to use light sensors for new applications in wearables, like monitoring blood pressure, says study author Jessica Ramella-Roman, an associate professor studying bioimaging sensors at Florida International University. "The architecture of the device has to change," she says. The study looked at the photoplethysmography (PPG) signal, a technique that uses changes in how light is reflected to measure blood flow, on three wearable... |

| 1Password has plans to get companies to actually use one password Posted: 21 Jan 2022 10:18 AM PST  Digital password manager company 1Password announced this week intentions to expand the login features of its services — starting with something the company calls Universal Sign On that it says can make logging into different websites or services even easier. 1Password already sells subscription services to small and large businesses looking to control and secure access to various passwords amongst staff — and now it looks to make Universal Sign On work alongside multi-factor authentication products like Duo and single sign-on (SSO) products like Okta (depending on what the enterprise needs are).

| What’s the best student laptop? We asked students Posted: 21 Jan 2022 10:00 AM PST  Shopping for a laptop can be stressful — doubly stressful if you or your children will be learning online for the first time. Kids of different ages have a range of different laptop use cases and different needs. And as the choices for best laptop and best Chromebook evolve, so do students' needs. So I spoke to some experts on the subject: students themselves. My recommendations here are meant to accommodate a variety of preferences and price ranges. But they're a jumping-off point rather than an exhaustive list: every student is different. Before making a decision, you'll want to make sure you read reviews and try out devices yourself if you can. I'll do my best to keep this article up to date with items that are in stock. Best laptop... |
