  WWDC 2017: Apple HomePod is a $350 Siri-powered speaker system that you can't buy

  Publié: juin 5, 2017, 10:15pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  When Amazon released the Echo hardware and Alexa voice assistant, no one knew for sure how successful it would be. Since the release, however, it has proven wildly popular -- not only with users, but with developers and hardware-makers too. There are many devices that work with Alexa, not to mention, countless skills. Following Echo being a runaway success, Google copied it with its Home assistant. Curiously absent in this copying, however, was Apple. Since the company already has a voice assistant with Siri, it seemed like creating a hardware speaker would be a no-brainer. Sadly, one did not surface -- until… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: juin 5, 2017, 9:47pm CEST par Wayne Williams

  Apple’s Worldwide Developer Conference is traditionally about software, but that certainly isn’t the case this year as the tech giant has refreshed its Mac line, and introduced a new HomePod speaker. Apple today also introduces all-new 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pros powered by a new A10X Fusion chip that Apple says "delivers incredible performance that rivals today’s fastest PC laptops" -- a clear dig at Microsoft. A six-core CPU and 12-core GPU reportedly delivers up to 30 percent faster CPU performance and 40 percent faster graphics performance than the A9X chip, but Apple says you’ll still get all-day battery life.… [Continue Reading]

PwC noted that the UK, along with Italy, was one of the most active regions when it comes to regulatory enforcement in… [Continue Reading]

  WWDC 2017: Apple refreshes iMac, MacBook, and MacBook Pro with Intel Kaby Lake

  Publié: juin 5, 2017, 8:37pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  When Apple unveiled the newest MacBook Pro laptops in October of 2016, some people were upset that they didn't come with 7th-generation Intel Kaby Lake processors. Instead, the company opted for the 6th-gen chips. One big issue with this is that the memory was limited to DDR3 rather than the newest DDR4. Despite these shortcomings, the machines sold well -- they were hard to come by for quite some time after launch. Today, Apple finally refreshes the MacBook Pro machines with the latest such Intel processors. But that is not all. In addition to the Pro laptop, the company is… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: juin 5, 2017, 7:32pm CEST par Mark Wilson

  It's WWDC 2017 and, for the first time, Tim Cook has revealed the precise number of announcements we can expect from the keynote: six. The first of them is the news that Amazon is coming to Apple TV. Apple isn't saying exactly when this is happening, but Apple TV is finally going to benefit from Amazon Prime TV. The two companies have traditionally been rivals, but have now managed to become friendly enough to join force. Tim Cook said little more than Prime is coming later in the year. Just last month, rumors started to circulate that this might be… [Continue Reading]

For every app success, there are 10 great ideas that just never get that much interest. But why? The market just isn’t ready for the app yet -- the technology isn’t mature or users can’t intuitively use… [Continue Reading]

Twitter, YouTube, and other services of their ilk like to be seen to be as inclusive as can be imagined and Facebook is no different. This month is Pride Month, and Facebook is not only joining in the celebrations, but also using it to indulge in a little self-celebration and self-congratulation. The social network is rolling out a rainbow frame, a Pride reaction and Pride-themed masks for photos, Pride stickers in Messenger and more, but the company is also… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: juin 5, 2017, 5:25pm CEST par Mike Williams

  Image2ASCII is an open-source Windows application which converts digital pictures to stylized ASCII art. The program is tiny, and arrives as a stand-alone executable. There’s no installation required, simply download and run it. Image2ASCII’s interface follows its own rules. It has a couple of boxes for the loaded and converted images, and a bunch of icons, without captions or tooltips, which you have to figure out for yourself. You’ll still get started easily enough. Click the "Open" icon, choose a file and tap the "Refresh" icon to run a conversion. The results are previewed in a second window. One issue… [Continue Reading]
