In 2018, being available at all times is critical. But you aren’t truly available if your mobile device, laptop, or desktop loses power, right? There are portable battery packs and power backup devices abound nowadays, but many of them are designed for recharging only smartphones and smaller devices. Typically, battery packs provide between 3,000 and 5,000 […]
Apple CEO Tim Cook traveled to his home state of Alabama this week to talk coding and reflect on the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. Cook also stopped in at the Birmingham Metro Southern Christian Leadership Conference to talk to a group of students and take their questions…
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg held a call with reporters today to answer questions about the sweeping changes the company made to its third-party app developer platform, as well as the revelation that as many as 87 million users — not 50 million as previously thought — may have had their personal data misused by Cambridge Analytica.
Slate’s Will Oremus asked whether the chief executive himself would have used apps like the one designed by Cambridge psychology professor Aleksandr Kogan, called “thisisyourdigitallife,” that siphoned the data of around 270,000 users and all of their friends, which Kogan then packaged and sold.
The CEO’s answer was candid and will likely enter the pantheon of iconic Zuck quotes, which also includes his…
One of the most powerful political organizations in the U.S. is the NRA. The president of the United States recently claimed he wasn’t afraid of the NRA, only to have an NRA spokesperson — not the president himself — later announce that the president had changed his mind. It was painful to watch the most powerful man in the free world be treated like a small child. The cornerstone of the NRA’s platform to sell more guns is the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Its original intent has been perverted over the years.
We published our review on Ultimate Ears’ BLAST and MEGABLAST exactly one month ago today. They’re good speakers overall, but they’re not without their caveats. One of the most major issues we found is the price; $ 229.99 for the BLAST and $ 299.99 for the MEGABLAST, plus another $ 39.99 for the definitely-needed POWER UP dock, is a lot of dough for an imperfect product in this category. Today, however, Amazon has brought the BLAST and POWER UP bundle’s price down to a much more palatable $ 179.99.
[Deal Alert] Ultimate Ears BLAST with POWER UP dock down to $ 179.99 ($ 90 off), MEGABLAST with dock down to $ 278.98 ($ 61 off) was written by the awesome team at Android Police.

Smart homes are here. Although not every home in the U.S. is tricked out with the latest technologies, they’re no longer a rarity. For example, a hefty 41 percent of the people who responded to an online survey conducted last year said they already owned smart home devices. Sales of smart refrigerators and washing machines more than doubled in 2017. Meanwhile, shipments of voice-controlled devices such as the Amazon Echo and Google Home speakers were 159 percent higher in 2017 than in 2016.
You’ve seen the ad: A family is vacationing out of town and the parents suddenly wonder if the house is locked up properly. They use their smartphone to remotely activate the smart locks and security system. Or this one: Someone rings the doorbell or merely approaches a home, and the homeowner uses a smartphone to speak through the video doorbell system, even when not at home, perhaps bewildering the visitor — or potential intruder — who can’t tell where the voice is coming from. This picture has a dark side, though.
