PhonesMetamask Warns Apple Users Over Icloud Phishing Attacks by AbrahamLincoln(op): 8:20am On Apr 18, 2022
The firm warned that If an Apple user has enabled automatic iCloud backups of their MetaMask wallet data, their seed phrase is being stored online.

ConsenSys-owned crypto wallet provider MetaMask has sent out a warning to the community regarding Apple iCloud phishing attacks.

The security issue for iPhone, Mac, and iPad users is related to default device settings which see a user’s seed phrase or “password-encrypted MetaMask vault” stored on the iCloud if the user has enabled automatic backups for their app data.

Science/TechnologyHow To Bridge Tokens From Other Chains To The Polygon Network by AbrahamLincoln(op): 9:04am On Apr 15, 2022
To do anything on Polygon, you’ll need MATIC, which isn’t always easy to come by from other networks’ DEXes.

Bridging assets could help solve issues like scalability, speed and high fees. Bridging means users can move their tokens between blockchain networks quickly and cost-effectively.

The Polygon Bridge is used for cross-chain transactions between the Polygon (MATIC) and Ethereum (ETH) blockchains. It allows users to transfer ERC tokens and NFTs to the Polygon sidechain through smart contracts.

This guide will show you how to bridge Polygon with other blockchains. However, given that Ethereum is the platform most often used for decentralized finance (DeFi), nonfungible tokens (NFTs) and the metaverse, we’ll be looking at how to bridge tokens from the Ethereum network to Polygon, an increasingly popular platform due to its efficient interoperability.

How to use the Polygon bridge?
The Polygon bridge is designed to connect different blockchains with fast and cheap transactions so that users can easily transfer tokens back and forth. It also enhances the Ethereum ecosystem through efficient tools that help build scalable decentralized applications (DApps).

The Polygon Bridge allows users to move tokens from Ethereum ERC20 to Polygon Matic, Polygon’s native token, which is the cheapest way to bridge ETH to Polygon.

Nairaland GeneralWhatsapp Photos And Videos Can Now Disappear After A Single Viewing by AbrahamLincoln(op): 9:13am On Aug 04, 2021
WhatsApp said that it would soon let users send disappearing photos and videos and this week the feature will be rolling out to everybody.

Anyone using the Facebook-owned messaging app can share a photo or video in “view once” mode, allowing a single viewing before the media in question goes poof. Media shared with “view once” selected will show up as opened after the intended audience takes a peek.

The company notes that the new feature could be helpful for an array of needs that definitely aren’t sending nudes, like sharing a photo of some clothes you tried on or giving someone your wifi password. In the fine print, the company would like to remind you that just because the photos or video will vanish, that doesn’t prevent someone from taking a screenshot (and you won’t know if they do).

PhonesGoogle To End Support For Services Like Gmail, Youtube On Old Android Devices by AbrahamLincoln(op): 9:06am On Aug 03, 2021
A lot of us are still stuck on old Android smartphone or have them lying around the house as a backup phone. While they still might hold us for basic purposed, Google has decided to introduce some major restrictions to the phones that would more or less render your devices obsolete.

According to an announcement made by the company, you will not be able to sign in to your Google account on devices that are running Android 2.3.7 and earlier. The decision is going into effect from 27th September, 2021, and is being done to improve the overall security.

Google has talked about how signing into your Google account after the date would probably provide alerts with username or password errors. This is often going to extend to a bunch of Google’s services such as Gmail, YouTube, and Maps.

Google suggests that you simply should plow ahead and upgrade your phone that’s running Gingerbread or earlier just in case you’ve got not already. However, this seems to be the foremost unlikely case as people have upgraded their phones tons more regularly. Google has also stated that you simply will still log into your Google account and Gmail through the online browser if you can’t update to the newest Android OS.

While this might upset some users, it’s a clear situation and something that Google would have done a method or another. Older Android versions are less secure, but thanks to the shortage of official support from Google, they’re also tons more vulnerable. Having a Google account logged into them is simply differently of maliciously getting access to whatever is stored on their phone.

Car TalkEU Fines BMW, VW For Running Emissions Cartel Since The 90s by AbrahamLincoln(op): 3:58pm On Jul 10, 2021
As environmental issues really came of age in the 1990s, certain German automakers were meeting in secret groups to make sure their cars would continue to industriously contribute to greenhouse gas emissions.

According to the European Union, Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, BMW and Mercedes-Benz parent company Daimler have been illegally colluding to restrict competition in emission cleaning for new diesel passenger cars, essentially slowing the deployment of cleaner emissions tech. On Thursday, the EU issued fines of $1 billion (€875 million) to Volkswagen and BMW for their involvement in the emissions cartel.

“The five car manufacturers Daimler, BMW, Volkswagen, Audi and Porsche possessed the technology to reduce harmful emissions beyond what was legally required under EU emission standards,” said executive VP of the EU Commission Margrethe Vestager in a statement. “But they avoided to... https://techyno.com/tech-news/eu-fines-bmw-vw-for-running-emissions-cartel-since-the-90s/

Art, Graphics & VideoNvidia Launches Brand New Graphics Cards by AbrahamLincoln(op): 5:28am On Jun 29, 2021
Nvidia launched its new Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 Ti and 3070 Ti graphics cards at the virtual Computex 2021 event in Taiwan.

Jeff Fisher, the senior vice president of Nvidia’s GeForce business, announced the new graphics cards and their graphics processing units (GPUs) during a Computex talk. He showed a mod of Microsoft Flight Simulator that highlighted Taipei, where the event usually takes place.

The 3080 Ti GPU is the flagship GPU for games, and it’s based on Nvidia’s Ampere architecture with second-generation RT cores and third-generation Tensor cores.

“The 80 Ti class of GPUs represents the best of our gaming lineup,” Fisher said.

Fisher also showed off some new laptops using RTX from HP, Acer, and Alienware. Fisher said the RTX 3080 Ti is 1.5 times faster than its predecessor and tears through the latest games with all the settings cranked up. And the RTX 3070 Ti is 1.5 times faster than a 2070 Super, thanks to more cores and 12GBs of fast GDDR6X memory. It has 34 shader teraflops, 67 RT teraflops, and 273 Tensor teraflops.

GeForce RTX 3080 Ti availability will begin June 3, starting at $1,200, and GeForce RTX 3070 Ti availability begins June 10, starting at $600.

PhonesWhat Iphone 13 Pro May Look Like? by AbrahamLincoln(op): 5:10am On Jun 29, 2021
HIGHLIGHTS
Apple iPhone 13 Pro has leaked in a video showing off the design.
The iPhone 13 Pro may come with bigger camera lenses and a smaller notch.
The iPhone 13 Pro launch may take place sometime in September.


Apple iPhone 13 is coming later this year. But some recent rumours have kind of contested that name and said that the 2021 iPhone will be more like an iPhone 12S. We will not know what exactly this year’s iPhone line will be called until the launch event sometime in September, but a huge round of rumours has given a fair idea of what the iPhone 13 (let us go with this name for now) will be like. And using those rumours, ConceptCreator put up 3D renders of the iPhone 13 Pro in a video to show what it is going to look like.

The video was made in collaboration with LetsGoDigital, which has been one of the major leakers for iPhone 13 Pro schematics. The iPhone 13 Pro is going to have a smaller notch, according to several rumours, which is why that is one of the things that you see in the video. The rest of the iPhone 13 models are also likely to have a smaller notch. The notch looks similar to what some Android phones have but Apple will use it for sensors that facilitate Face ID authentication on the phone. A smaller notch will not impact how you see things on the iPhone display, but it will allow Apple to cram more notification icons on top, if that is why Apple is bringing the change.

The design of the iPhone 13, however, will not be much different from that of the iPhone 12. That is because Apple changes the iPhone design after around four to five years and that happened last year with the iPhone 12.

Dear Friends, I know I will get the best advice here. I've been a nairalander for more than 5years.

She complained that I'm insecured and too jealous. Why won't I? She deletes chats with a married man whom she claims is a man she helped treat at the hospital she works. Even when she's at my crib, she still chat with this married man and will clear the chat for me not to see. She said she's going to the cinemas with the man and she'll say no if he asks her out. Does this make any sense at all? She said this is why she's clearing the chats cos she knows I won't understand. Why will a lady in a relationship agree to go out with a married man she knows is trying to sleep with her? Why?

I've never cheated on her nor have I given her any reason to doubt my love for her. I don't know why she's treating me this way.

Am I really insecured in this situation? Should I just forget everything and move on with my life? Please tell me. Please.
I'm to go out to register my company name today. It's a step to establish my company but now I'm so confused, depressed and weak.

You were saying something cool until the bolded.
this just expanciates the hypocrisy of "some men"
you accuse women of feminism meanwhile its this same you men who insult the intelligence of women because you believe they are beneath you.
we could have gone with your logic but then,some men has made it a point of duty to rubbish the female gender and you expect them to suck it in and take the sh!t?

this kind of question will not stop been asked as long as "some men" will not stop seeing women as lesser beings and worst sex objects.

As for wife-beating, men who do dat are goats n I wonder how women still go ahead 2 marry such men. One big cause of it is poverty n blockheadedness. U hardly c wealthy/enlightnd pple pummeling their wives.
Where I blame women 4 it is y they allow themselvs 2 be beaten continuously all in d name of luv or i-want-to-save-my-marriage
