  Publié: août 21, 2017, 10:24pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  The perfect Linux distribution doesn't exist. Take it from someone that does a lot of distro-hopping -- you will find yourself searching forever.

Well, if you are not satisfied with your current Linux-based operating system, then maybe. I've got to tell you, this Ubuntu-based distro looks like a winner. It features… [Continue Reading]

  Android 8.0 Oreo is here, and as usual, your device will probably never get it -- hooray!

  Publié: août 21, 2017, 9:23pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Look, we all knew Android 8.0 would probably be called "Oreo," and we now have confirmation. Today, Google releases 8.0 of its Android operating system and officially names it "Oreo" after the sandwich cookie. This is the search-giant's second time partnering with a brand for a dessert name, with the other time being "Kit Kat". Strangely, Google even used the solar eclipse to promote the Oreo name. Truth be told, it does feel kind of cheap and commercialized to have a corporate product tie-in. After all, if Windows 10 was named "Slim Jim," for example, and Microsoft urged you to snap into… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: août 21, 2017, 5:17pm CEST par Sead Fadilpašić

  Hackers could disable a modern car's airbags and other safety systems, putting the driver and the passengers at grave risk, according to a new warning. Researchers from security firm Trend Micro have revealed a flaw that could allow the controlling network of a connected car to be overloaded, allowing possible hackers to compromise key systems in the vehicle, including safety aspects. Trend Micro's report claims that hackers could, with relative ease, overload the controller area network (CAN) standard, which the company says is used in "practically every light-duty vehicle currently in circulation today." The system, which was developed in 1983… [Continue Reading]

  HTC Vive VR gets a significant price cut

  Publié: août 21, 2017, 3:34pm CEST par Mihăiță Bamburic

  Most consumers are either unfamiliar with VR headsets or not interested in owning one. Part of the problem, at least with devices like HTC Vive VR, is the high price, which is hard to justify when we're talking about a technology in its infancy. However, as the barrier of entry is lowered, VR headsets will become more appealing to a larger number of consumers. HTC is aware of this, which is why it's given the Vive VR a major price cut. The Vive VR kit, which previously went for $799, is now available for $599 direct from HTC. The $200… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: août 21, 2017, 2:12pm CEST par Mihăiță Bamburic

  Intel today unveils a new generation of Core processors, promising a massive performance improvement over the Kaby Lake range announced nearly a year ago. Just how big of a gain can you expect? Intel says that the 8th-gen Core line is up to 40 percent faster over the previous generation.

  Publié: août 21, 2017, 1:07pm CEST par Ian Barker

  Cyber crime continues to be a major problem globally and companies are seeking new ways of combating it. However, there are some older technologies that remain an effective defense. One of these is network segmentation, and network security specialist Tufin Technologies has produced an infographic explaining how segmentation works and how it can help keep organizations secure from today’s sophisticated cyber attacks.. It explains why organizations need the ability to visualize and enforce segmentation from a single console across multiple vendors and platforms. This level of visibility and control enables enterprises to maintain compliance with industry regulations, tighten the overall… [Continue Reading]

  Online abusers face stiffer penalties as social media hate crime will be treated as seriously as face-to-face offenses

  Publié: août 21, 2017, 12:51pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Online hate crimes are to be treated as seriously as abuse offenses committed offline as the UK's Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) aims to crack down on abuse and harassment on the likes of Facebook and Twitter. New policies covering hate crime relating to race, religion disability, sexuality -- including, for the first time, specific bisexual hate crimes -- will lead to harsher sentences for offenders. Alison Saunders, director of public prosecutions, wants to do more to fight online abuse because of the risk of it escalating into the sort of extremist hate seen in relation to events in Charlottesville. She… [Continue Reading]

  Plex backtracks on controversial privacy policy change

  Publié: août 21, 2017, 10:00am CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Last week Plex upset a large portion of its userbase by announcing a change to its privacy policy. The change, which was due to take effect in late September, meant that it would not be possible to opt out of data collection. After a serious backlash, the company has changed its mind, backtracking on the privacy policy update, saying that it recognized the concerns raised by users. The company insists that it was not trying to sneak the policy change by users and that it had no intention of selling data. Importantly, however, users are still going to be able… [Continue Reading]
