When Apple rolled out the iOS 15 developer beta for iPhones back in June, I thoroughly enjoyed Safari’s redesigned layout with a tab bar on the bottom. However, many folks thought that the choice was hideous. Now that iOS 15 has been rollout to all eligible iPhones, you can switch to the old-styled layout with an address bar on the top. Here’s how you can do it: Go to the Settings app on your iPhone....
I was called gay for the first time when I was 11, before I even knew what the word meant. It was then that my journey to find belonging began. When I finally found refuge in New York City after college, I naively thought everything would change for me overnight. By the end of my first week, I had already encountered homophobic slurs on the street. I still felt bothered everywhere I went, and, as I began my job search, I desperately looked for a place where I would fit in....
Life is hard enough without trying to perfect the existence of your Sim too. You’ve got bills to pay, 100 babies to feed, and a countdown of your mortality — it’s exhausting, and what game’s fun if you can’t cheat? None. Unlike most games, the creators of The Sims actually encourage a little cheating, stating it’s “a big part of the game.” So with this in mind, and our conscience clear, we’ve compiled a list of cheats for The Sims 4 for PC, PS4, and XBOX One so you can live your best life....
Fitbit’s smartwatches, the Ionic and Versa, come with a number of apps pre-installed. These apps — which include three music apps, a weather tracker, and a timer — might offer all you need, and you’d never think to try putting more on there. But if that’s the case you’re missing out, because both watches have a number of great apps. Sure, neither of them have a whole App Store at their disposal, but the number of apps available for the FitbitOS is quite respectable....
Whether you use them to demonstrate a point, provide evidence, or simply to break up a long block of text, images are undeniably a homestead in content creation. Unfortunately, not every image you stumble upon is free to use — not without risking getting yourself in legal trouble. Tons of stock photography services like Shutterstock, Getty Images, and iStock have figured out how to monetize your need for visuals by offering often pricey image subscriptions....
You buy a fancy new PC, and everything runs smoothly at first. And then, slowly but surely, it starts to feel more sluggish. Every week or month, things take just a little longer to load, until your PC feels like it’s running Windows 1.0, not Windows 11. If this describes you, it’s probably about time you take a look at which apps are running at startup, and strip things down to the bare essentials....
If you ask yourself these questions as well, and you don’t want to invest time (yet) into learning computer science, here’s the story of my experience. In this article, I’ll answer the following questions: Why learn computer science? What was my study plan? What resources did I use? Did I learn something useful that can be transferred to my day to day job as a developer? I began with this fantastic list of resources: teach yourself computer science....
Twitter has finally given us the tool it’s been promising for months, namely the ability to restrict who replies to your tweets. Here’s how it works. The platform’s been testing this option for a few months. The intention behind it is to allow users to control their own conversations — and to ensure one doesn’t have to deal with the unfettered opinions of the entirety of Twitter. If you don’t fall into the group capable of replying, than the reply button on the tweet will be greyed out and unuseable....
After watching her TNW2019 talk, I was curious to find out more about Vigreux’s success in the tech world, how CODAM can make a difference, and how TomTom is helping pave the way for autonomous driving: As co-founder of TomTom, you led the company through several transitions. What do you think is the key to tech companies staying relevant in a world that changes so rapidly? I believe in technology as a way to solve big problems and issues....
As far as we can tell, the answer’s a tepid ‘sure, a little.’ We’re seeing small changes filter through in the form of corporate and academic commitments, but continuing studies demonstrate there’s a lot of work left to be done when it comes to actual recruitment and equal-opportunity treatment. While this is probably true throughout most traditional industries, in the STEM fields it’s especially interesting to view the issue of diversity through the lens of data science and data scientists....
Autonomy and personal responsibility Individuals driving under the influence are one of the most common causes of automotive accidents and fatalities in the world, second only to distracted driving. These tragic statistics are fuel for the fire, pushing automotive manufacturers toward creating fully autonomous vehicles. How do DUI laws apply if you’re not actually the one driving the car? Let’s take a closer look at how DUI laws will likely adapt as self-driving cars become more mainstream....
This is in fact the second time the company has re-released the P30, having done so last fall. So what’s new this time? Well, not much really. The company basically is basically rebadging its 8GB/256GB configuration at a lower price (€749/£699) ; the P30 Pro’s base spec use to be 6GB/128GB and cost €1000/£899. Otherwise, you still get the same Kirin 980, 4,200 mAh battery, and 40MP, quad-camera system. Frankly, those specs still hold up in 2020 at the new price....
As the Korea Herald reports, Hyundai this morning unveiled the charging station in southeastern Seoul, which consists of eight high-voltage EV chargers capable of delivering 350 kWh of power, and peak at 800 volts. In other words, that should be enough to charge a wide array of electric vehicles from 0% to 80% in under half an hour. [Read: How Netflix shapes mainstream culture, explained by data] It seems simple enough, going by the press image, it seems that Hyundai, in partnership with energy firm SK networks, gutted the old gas station and installed the chargers and parking bays on the 4,066 square meter site....
At this stage in the article, I assume you’re one of two types of people: you either know about The Outer Worlds or you don’t. If you’re in the former camp, I give you permission to skim over this part. Okay, so The Outer Worlds is a first-person RPG set in an alternative reality. It was released on the Xbox One and PS4 in October of last year (check out our original review here) and it was made by Obsidian, the same company behind Fallout: New Vegas — one of the greatest games ever made....
You’ve probably heard of the upsides of full-frame sensors already: crisper images even at higher exposure, wider field of view, better performance in low-light settings, higher dynamic range, shallower depth of field, and more defined separation of subject from its background. In practice, though, none of this meant anything to me. I couldn’t tell the difference between crop-sensor images and full-frame ones. There was one difference I could clearly spot: The price tag....
Cryptocurrency traders in Israel are facing a sticky situation. Some banks are refusing to accept deposits from profits of cryptocurrency trading for fear they may have been obtained through illicit or illegal activities, local media reports. There is now a stack of $86 million in unpaid taxes that should have been paid on earnings from cryptocurrency trading. Over the past financial year, – April 1, 2018 to March 31, 2019 – Canada’s anti-money laundering watchdog sent 61 cryptocurrency-related incidents to relevant law enforcement agencies, according to The Globe and Mail....
Telecare owns the trademarks ‘ZEN’ and ‘ZEN MOBILE’ since 1999, and uses it to produce phones, tables, and accessories under that brand name since 2008. Asus has been selling phones in India under the Zenfone series name since 2014. The court said in a statement that Asus has used the trademark for identical goods (mobile phones) used by Telecare: In response, Asus’ lawyers argued that there was no scope of confusion or deception in the minds of the consumers when Zenfone comes to their mind....
— Casey Michel ?? (@cjcmichel) October 5, 2020 Some of these accounts, including Redfish and In the Now, have hundreds of thousands of followers. The label appears quite prominently on the accounts’ profiles, as well as every single post — right under the account name. As you can see above, some of these outlets have already begun reacting to the label within their bios. If you click on the warning label, you will see a pop up that tells you “Instagram believes this publisher may be wholly or partially under the editorial control of a state....
Not so with coronavirus. As reported by TechCrunch, Instagram will leverage its popularity to offer advice about the novel coronavirus and how to stay safe during the pandemic. Specifically, it will place a prompt at the top of your feed with a link to information from the World Health Organization (WHO) and local public health authorities. These prompts will appear “in counties that have seen significant impact from the virus,” according to TechCrunch....
What will they be called? All signs suggest Apple will once again release three iPhones this year, but the naming scheme is changing. Rather than allowing people to continue mispronouncing Roman numerals (iPhone ‘excess,’ anyone?), Cupertino appears to be aligning its iPhones with its other product lines. The iPhone 11 ‘Pro’ is the mainstream flagship to succeed the iPhone Xs, while the iPhone 11 Pro Max replaces the Xs Plus. The simply-named iPhone 11 will succeed the Xr as the cheapest device in the lineup....
