  Fedora 28 Beta Linux distro is finally here

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 8:19pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  Fedora is the best overall Linux-based desktop operating system -- Linus Torvalds famously uses it regularly. Today, version 28 of the distribution finally achieves Beta status. After a short delay -- it was scheduled to be available a week earlier -- the distro is back on track, and looking better than ever. As is typical now, there are three versions of the operating system -- Atomic Host, Server, and Workstation. While all three have their places, normal desktop computer users will want to focus on Workstation. There are plenty of new features (and bugs), but the most exciting aspect of… [Continue Reading]

  Facebook launches bulk app removal tool in response to privacy concerns

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 7:50pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Facebook has long been embroiled in controversies about privacy, but things have been particularly bad in recent weeks. The Cambridge Analytica scandal has put the spotlight firmly on privacy on the social network and -- having already made its privacy tools more accessible -- Facebook has now created a tool to quickly remove apps from profiles in bulk. It's a very simple idea, but one that will be warmly welcomed by those who have been concerned about the Facebook apps they have installed, but have felt put off by the idea of doing anything about it because of the arduous… [Continue Reading]

  Intel unveils hexacore mobile Core i9 chip and gets within spitting distance of 5GHz

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 4:57pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  In Bejing today, Intel revealed its first mobile Core i9 chip. The hexacore processor (yep... no fewer than six cores) is an eighth-generation chip, and the company says it is "the highest-performance laptop processor Intel has ever built". Intel also claims that it offers the "best gaming and content creation experience on the go," and with the top-of-the-range Intel Core i9-8950HK processor reaching speeds of up to 4.8 GHz, it's a claim that's easy to believe. A total of 12 threads bring serious improvements over the previous generation chips. See also: Apple could drop Intel and start making its own… [Continue Reading]

  ASUS unveils the svelte ROG Zephyrus M Windows 10 gaming laptop

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 3:08pm CEST par Brian Fagioli

  It used to be, if you wanted a gaming laptop, there was a huge price to pay. No, I am not talking about a financial price, although they can be expensive. Actually, I am referring to the excessive weight and thickness. A portable gaming machine was historically a very big and bulky product. These days, however, a gaming laptop can be quite svelte comparatively. They are continually getting thinner and lighter. Today, ASUS unveils its latest such notebook, the ROG Zephyrus M. That "ROG" stands for "Republic of Gamers," which is ASUS' premium gaming brand. This new laptop certainly is premium,… [Continue Reading]

  Breakthrough in AI cuts battery drain of mobile voice UIs

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 3:01pm CEST par Ian Barker

  We've become increasingly used to technology that uses 'wake words' like, "Hey, Cortana" to initiate interaction. But this technology has, so far, failed to make a big impact in the mobile apps arena, the main reason being the battery drain created by having an app that's constantly listening. That could be about to change as Silicon Valley company Sensory is announcing a breakthrough in running its TrulyHandsfree wake word and speech recognition AI engine directly on Android and iOS smartphone applications at low-power. Until now, always-listening wake word solutions for apps required too much power to be practical, especially for… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 2:29pm CEST par Ian Barker

  Apple could drop Intel and start making its own chips for Macs

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 12:54pm CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Apple could be planning to ditch Intel and start to manufacture its own chips for Macs by 2020, according to a new report. The move would be in line with what the company has done for iPhones and iPads -- the A11 Bionic chips are already designed in-house. Intel's share price dropped by 6 percent as the rumors of the plan came out.

  Linux 4.16 launches

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 11:55am CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Just over a week ago, Linus Torvalds said that the release of Linux 4.16 could take place on Sunday April 1. Ignoring the fact that April Fool's day is a terrible day to do just about anything, he made good on his promise. As predicted, there was no RC8 of the kernel, and Torvalds notes that the final release is very similar to RC7. In a post to the Linux Kernel Mailing List, he also said that the merge window for 4.17 is open, but for now, the focus is on 4.16.

  Google kicks cryptomining extensions from the Chrome Web Store

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 11:26am CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Amid growing concern about a disregard for Chrome Web Store policies, Google is slapping a ban on extensions that mine for cryptocurrencies. With immediate effect, no more cryptomining extensions will be added to the Store, and as of July 2018, any existing mining tools will be removed. Google says that an astonishing 90 percent of mining extensions ignore rules that state cryptomining must be the extension's sole purpose, and users need to be fully informed about the mining.

  Grindr was sharing users' location and HIV status with third parties

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 10:34am CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  Last week there was an outcry after it was revealed that it was relatively simple to determine the location of Grindr users because of a security flaw. The company has now also admitted that it shared information from users' profiles with third parties -- specifically the analytics companies Apptimize and Localytics -- including their HIV status. Grindr was quick to point out that, firstly, the information was sent via HTTPS, secondly, that the data was not sold to the analytics companies (it was provided free of charge) and, thirdly, that the data was public anyway. All three of these points… [Continue Reading]

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 9:24am CEST par Mark Wycislik-Wilson

  There's always a great sense of excitement surrounding the announcement of a new OnePlus phone, and this is something that the company is only too happy to play on. We've already seen a leaked photo of the yet-to-be-released handset and heard that the phone has an iPhone X-style notch; now OnePlus has (pretty much) confirmed the phone's name and started its "6et ready!" teaser campaign. While we were all but certain about the name, it has now been officially established that it will be called the OnePlus 6.

  Acer Aspire S24 Windows 10 all-in-one desktop comes to the USA

  Publié: avril 3, 2018, 3:21am CEST par Brian Fagioli

  If you want a quality all-in-one desktop, you should buy an iMac or iMac Pro, right? Pretty much. Surface Studio is another option, but it is sort of outdated these days. Unfortunately, both Microsoft and Apple's offerings are very expensive, making them unobtainable for many. There is yet another intriguing option lately -- the previously announced Acer Aspire S24. That company is normally synonymous with budget systems, and while this all-in-one desktop isn't top of the line, it actually has some premium design aspects. In fact, it can be argued that it is more attractive than the aforementioned expensive products… [Continue Reading]
