  Google 'Song Maker' can turn any nincompoop into a musician

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 8:49pm CET par Brian Fagioli

  Many people have dreams of becoming a famous musician. As a teenager, I took some guitar lessons, found out I had no talent, and ultimately gave up. Thanks to computers, however, any nincompoop can become a musician -- including me. Don’t have a good voice? Auto-tune, baby! Can’t play an instrument? No worries. Google has a new web app called "Song Maker" that can turn you into the next Tom Jones. "We started Chrome Music Lab to make learning music more accessible to everyone through fun, hands-on experiments. And we’ve loved hearing from teachers who have been using it in… [Continue Reading]

  Microsoft details steps being taken to address Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 8:14pm CET par Wayne Williams

  The Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities affected millions of processors around the world, and the "fixes" that followed compounded the problems with reports of the patches bricking AMD PCs, and Ubuntu systems, and causing major slowdowns. Intel even told customers to stop installing the patches due to 'unpredictable' reboot issues. In a new blog post, Microsoft provides an update on the state of the situation, and has some good news for Windows 1o users.

  Light Phone 2 is for smartphone users wanting to disconnect

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 7:16pm CET par Mihăiță Bamburic

  Although I do not consider myself a smartphone addict, I have become so used to filling up my down time with YouTube videos, learning new stuff and staying in touch with friends that I might as well call myself one. Thing is, unlike other people who say they want to disconnect, I don't. It's fair to say I don't reminisce about the days when all I could do was phone or text someone. But I have to admit that I'm intrigued by the Light Phone 2. It's a new phone that is designed to offer as little as possible in… [Continue Reading]

  New solution streamlines enterprise data integration

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 4:09pm CET par Ian Barker

  Companies operate in an increasingly complex data environment, where information can exist across multiple systems and locations. This can mean the movement of data between a variety of sources and targets, such as data lakes and cloud-based infrastructures, without impacting daily business operations. Data integration specialist HVR is addressing this need by launching a distributed architecture to provide easy management and control of data movement. "Data remains the singular most important piece of modernization, even more so than the database or sources and targets, which will continue to evolve," says Anthony Brooks-Williams, CEO of HVR.

  Imaging systems present biggest security risk among connected medical devices

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 3:00pm CET par Ian Barker

  A new report from IoT security specialist ZingBox looks at the security of connected medical devices, from infusion pumps and patient monitors to imaging systems and medical device gateways. The most common types of risk originate from user practice issues (such as using embedded browsers on medical workstations to surf the web, conducting online chat or downloading content), accounting for 41 percent of all security issues. This is followed by outdated operating systems or software such as the use of legacy Windows versions, obsolete applications and unpatched firmware. These issues account for 33 percent of all security risks found on… [Continue Reading]

  Want to know a secret? Samsung’s flagship Galaxy smartphones take excellent photos and videos. Oh wait, that’s not a secret -- it’s common knowledge and undeniable fact. Regardless of your opinions of Samsung, or Android, you must accept that its top smartphones are some of the best -- if not the best -- for photography. Sorry, iPhone fans, y’alls devices are great in this regard too, but slightly below Galaxy. How great are Samsung Galaxy smartphones at taking photos and video? Well, today we can answer that question definitively, as the company’s new Galaxy S9+ earns the highest DxOMark score… [Continue Reading]

  Twitter introduces Bookmarks and new sharing options

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 2:43pm CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Several years in the making, Twitter has finally gained a Bookmarks option. While it has long been possible to like/heart a tweet to make it easier to access in the future, this method essentially advertised your activity to everyone -- and it might well be that you didn't "like" the tweet in question anyway. Privacy FTW! On top of this, Twitter has also introduced sharing options which can be accessed through a new icon.

  The official Mobile Passport app will glide you through immigration

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 2:41pm CET par Chris Wiles

  As a US citizen, you’d think returning to your own country should enable quick and easy access through immigration? Sadly, not. We’ve been in this situation ourselves, such as flying into Miami, where if you land behind a few incoming flights, the queue for the Global Entry kiosks can be hours long. Often you’re put in one big queue with everyone else including international travelers with an ESTA visa, all wanting to use the same devices. What if there was a way to glide past immigration without having to even use the Global Entry machines or queue for an immigration officer? There’s… [Continue Reading]

  Considering the amount of time spent staring at the screen of a smartphone, it's important that things look great -- particularly when it comes to video and photography. So it's little surprise that screen quality is high on the list of many people's priorities when shopping for a new handset. But which is the best? Just a few months ago, experts at display calibration and benchmarking firm DisplayMate announced that the best screen was to be found on the iPhone X. Now, following the launch of the latest flagship from Samsung, it has awarded its highest ever rating to the… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 12:14pm CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

The service can be used on the web, and there are Windows, macOS, iOS and Android apps available.

  StatCounter: Windows 10 continues its meteoric climb

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 12:05pm CET par Wayne Williams

  While NetMarketShare has Windows 10 stumbling backwards in February, StatCounter shows the opposite. Rather than the new OS losing share, the Irish analyst firm has Windows 10 shooting upwards, past Windows 7. That’s good news for Microsoft as it would have been rather embarrassing if Windows 7 had reclaimed the crown after only one month. SEE ALSO: NetMarketShare: Windows 10 lost share last month According to StatCounter’s figures for February, Windows 10 went from 42.78 percent to 43.53 percent, an increase of 0.75 percentage points. In January its share grew by 1.09. Windows 7 lost 0.27 percentage points last month,… [Continue Reading]

  Financial targets account for more than half of phishing attacks

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 11:59am CET par Ian Barker

  More than half of phishing attacks in 2017 were aimed at getting hold of financial information according to a new report. Kaspersky Lab's anti-phishing technologies detected more than 246 million user attempts to visit different kinds of phishing pages, with 54 percent being attempts to visit a financial-related website, compared to 47 percent in 2016. Attacks against banks, payment systems and e-shops grew by 1.2, 4.3, and 0.8 percentage points respectively and made up the top three categories in overall phishing attacks detected. Meanwhile attacks against internet portals, including search engines and social networks fell from second place in 2016… [Continue Reading]

  NetMarketShare: Windows 10 lost share last month

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 11:45am CET par Wayne Williams

  Depending on which analyst firm you believe, Windows 10 either finally overtook Windows 7 in January (StatCounter), or it simply narrowed the gap a little more (NetMarketShare). If you were expecting NetMarketShare’s latest figures to show Windows 10 besting Windows 7 there as well this month, you are in for a nasty surprise as its numbers for February have the OS slipping into reverse gear and actually losing share. SEE ALSO: Fall Creators Update now on 85 percent of Windows 10 PCs According to the company, in February, Windows 10 went from 34.29 percent to 34.06 percent, a drop of… [Continue Reading]

  Spotify is filing for an unconventional IPO

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 11:20am CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Music streaming service Spotify is planning to go public. The company is making a "novel" move which it acknowledges is "risky": opting for a "direct listing" rather than the more usual fundraising route. The company will allow its investors and employees to sell shares, and there will be no need to raise more capital or hire an underwriter. It is expected that Spotify will go public in late March or early April when it will appear on the New York Stock Exchange using the symbol SPOT. Although the lack of new shares means there is not a listing price, estimates… [Continue Reading]

  YouTube says it was wrong to remove some right-wing videos and channels

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 10:39am CET par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  YouTube has said that new moderators were to blame for the removal of some right-wing videos from the site. Just a few days ago InfoWars' Alex Jones had a video removed for violating YouTube harassment policies and following this a number of right-wing and conspiracy theory channels received warnings or were suspended. Now the video site has admitted that some of the removals were the result of its policies being applied incorrectly -- side-stepping the claims of censorship that have been banded around. It says that any videos that were removed in error will be reinstated. See also: YouTube pulls… [Continue Reading]

  QNAP launches QXG-10G1T 10GBASE-T PCIe NIC for NAS, Windows, and Linux

  Publié: mars 1, 2018, 3:05am CET par Brian Fagioli

  In many households and small businesses, there are gigabit Ethernet devices in use. Believe it or not, most of them are not being used to their full potential. Why? Well, most internet providers don't offer service that can saturate it. Where 1Gbps hardware can be beneficial, however, is for sharing files between hardwired devices on a network, such as PCs and NAS. With the prevalence of Wi-Fi, that is largely a rarity these days. With all of that said, there are cases where 1Gbps connections are being used fully by home and business users. On top of that, sometimes even… [Continue Reading]
