PhonesSamsung Hints At Smartwatch That Scans Veins To Verify Identity by imtech(op): 5:07pm On Feb 08, 2016
Until now, we have seen several ways tech companies have made their smart devices capable of recognising users, from face recognition, fingerprint sensors, voice recognition, and even iris scanners. Now a newly published patent suggests Samsung to go even deeper inside a human body for recognition. The patent hints towards a future smartwatch that could use our veins for identity verification. In the patent published by the USPTO titled "Wearable Device and Method of Operating the Same", the company describes a method to identify users that takes a scan of the registered user's vein layout, and then compares it to the layout of the person trying to authenticate themselves in the future. "A wearable device comprising: a sensor configured to capture a vein image of a user; and a processor configured to: in response to a function or an application being selected by the user, control the sensor to capture the vein image of the user wearing the wearable device; identify the user by comparing the captured vein image with at least one registered vein image; and in response to determining that the identified user has an execution authority for the selected function or application, execute the function or the application," says the patent, which was filed in July last year. As with all patents, it is not necessary that the company granted the patent will use the technology in an actual production device. So, while we may never see Samsung bring the vein scanning functionality to future smartwatches, we at least know the technologies the company is exploring. In December, a patent published by the USPTO hinted that the company might be working on a smart ring under its wearables segment. The patent describes how the ring will work and what functions it might carry.

Literature19 Words For Emotions You Feel But Can’t Explain by imtech(op): 4:47pm On Feb 06, 2016
To date, there are 1,025,109 words in the
English language, and yet there are so few
words for explaining how we feel emotionally.
Sure, you’ve got sad and happy and angry and
so on, but where’s the word describing the
feelings of excitement the night before a road
trip?
For John Koenig, filling these holes in our
language has been his job. In 2009, he started
the website The Dictionary of Obscure
Sorrows and sought to invent words to fill in the
gaps of our language. This is some of what he
came up with:

ADRONITIS
(n) Frustration with how long it takes to get to
know someone.

MONACHOPSIS
(n) The subtle but persistent feeling of being
out of place.

VELLICHORTHE
(n) The strange wistfulness of used bookshops.

RUBATOSIS
(n) The unsettling awareness of your own
heartbeat.

KENOPSIA
(n) The eerie, forlorn atmosphere of a place that
is usually bustling with people but is now
abandoned and quiet.

ÉNOUEMENT
(n) The bittersweetness of having arrived in the
future, seeing how things turn out, but not being
able to tell your past self.

MAUERBAUERTRAUNIGKEIT
(n) The inexplicable urge to push people away,
even close friends who you really like.

JOUSKA
(n) A hypothetical conversation that you
compulsively play out in your head.

SONDER
(n) The realization that each passerby has a life
as vivid and complex as your own

CHRYSALISM
(n) the amniotic tranquility of being indoors
during a thunderstorm.

VEMÖDALEN
(n) The frustration of photographic something
amazing when thousands of identical photos
already exist.

ANECDOCHE
(n) A conversation in which everyone is talking,
but nobody is listening

ELLIPSIM
(n) A sadness that you’ll never be able to know
how history will turn out.

KUEBIKO
(n) A state of exhaustion inspired by acts of
senseless violence.

LACHESISM
The desire to be struck by disaster – to survive
a plane crash, or to lose everything in a fire.

EXULANSIS
(n) The tendency to give up trying to talk about
an experience because people are unable to
relate to it.

RÜCKKEHRUNRUHE
(n) The feeling of returning home after an
immersive trip only to find it fading rapidly from
your awareness.

OPIA
(n) The ambiguous intensity of Looking
someone in the eye, which can feel
simultaneously invasive and vulnerable

NODUS TOLLENS
(n) The realization that the plot of your life
doesn’t make sense to you anymore..

Try doing auto cad on your tab except u have an iPad pro or surface pro 4 or a google pixel c ( which for obvious reasons cost a fortune ) you might as well hold on to thy laptops and speaking of RAMs, anyone heard about the Sky
X9W laptop, with 64gb RAM ? now let's see a phone beat that before Jesus comes.
ComputersMeet The Laptop With 64gb Ram, 5tb Ssd, And 6 Usb Ports by imtech(op): 4:23pm On Feb 06, 2016
If the current lineup of high-end laptops in the market isn't cutting it for you, Eurocom's new offering may interest you. The Canadian computer manufacturer has launched its Sky X9W laptop, a 'mobile workstation' upgrade to its already impressive Sky X9 that it released in October last year. Much like many other good things in life, the laptop also has a big price tag, with a starting price point of $2,930 (roughly #879,000). Eurocom is referring to the Sky X9W as a mobile workstation, but don't get confused by the word mobile here. The laptop comes equipped with top-of-the-line desktop-class specifications. The Sky X9W is powered by a quad-core, Intel Core i7 'Skylake-S' 6700K SoC and Intel Z170 Express 'Skylake' chipset. Users have the option to opt for Intel Core 'Skylake-S' i5-6600L or Core 'Skylake-S' i7-6700 SoC. As for the GPU, the Sky X9W comes with 8GB Nvidia Quadro M5000M, 4GB Nvidia Quadro M3000M, or a single 200W desktop class 4GB Nvidia GeForce GTX 980. Of course, with that sort of processing power, there is a lot of cooling that will be required - and, there are multiple fans on board to do so. As for the memory, the base configuration starts with 16GB of DDR4 2133MHz RAM, and goes up to 64GB of DDR4 2666MHz RAM. The Sky X9W comes equipped with a 17.3- inch 4K (3840x2160 pixels) display. Users can also opt for a display with full-HD (1920x1080 pixels) screen resolution. On the connectivity front, there's one USB 3.1 Type- C port, five USB 3.0 ports, a pair of Mini Display ports that can power up to four monitors, an HDMI outlet, one headphone, one mic, two RS45 ports, and supports Wi-Fi. It also comes with up to 5TB of SSD storage in a RAID 10 configuration. The maximum configuration can go up to a whopping $11,473 (roughly #3,431,100), which includes a carrying case and a 3-year warranty. On the software front, users can opt for Windows 10 , Windows 8.1 , and Windows 7. The laptop weighs 4.8kg, and measures 428x308x45mm.

PhonesHow To Download And Install Windows 10 Technical Preview For Phones by imtech(op): 3:22am On Mar 19, 2015
Windows 10 Technical Preview for phones is
now available to download. This is a pre-release version of Microsoft's upcoming mobile
operating system. You should only download
this if you want to try a new operating system on
your Windows Phone device. Since this is beta
software, many of your favourite apps may not
work on it and upgrading to it right now is not recommended on your primary phone as the
preview is still very much a work in progress. If you have a spare Windows Phone device lying
around or if you love playing around with latest
(potentially buggy) builds of operating systems,
then read on. Supported devices Currently, Microsoft says only six Lumia phones
can download and install Windows 10 Technical
Preview for phones. These are: Lumia 630 Lumia 635 Lumia 636 Lumia 638 Lumia 730 Lumia 830 More phones will be supported in future builds,
but for now only users of the phones listed
above can try Windows 10 Technical Preview.

PhonesHow To Enable Guest Mode On Android by imtech(op): 2:04am On Mar 19, 2015
Ever needed to hand your Android smartphone
to someone else for a while? If yes, then there's a
good chance that you were worried about how
easily they could go through your personal data
or end up changing preferences or even deleting
information like contacts or messages. Fortunately, Android 5.0 Lollipop ships with a
system-level guest mode. This lets you quickly
switch to a separate guest profile that doesn't
have any of your personal data such as
messages, installed apps or preferences. This is
as good as a fresh install of Android 5.0 Lollipop and the moment you switch back to your Google
account, all data saved in the guest mode is
removed. This makes it a particularly effective
way of letting someone else use your phone for
a while. Here's how to enable guest mode on Android 5.0
Lollipop. 1. Swipe down from the top of the screen to pull
down the notifications bar. 2. Tap your avatar on the top right twice. 3. Now you'll see three icons - your Google
account, Add guest and Add user. 4. Tap Add guest. 5. Now your smartphone will switch to guest
mode. This may take some time and the
phone may be slightly slow initially, but in our
tests with a Nexus 5 it worked well after a
few minutes. 6. When you're done with guest mode, you can
easily revert to your Google account. Follow
steps 1 and 2 above and tap the icon that
shows your Google account. This will delete
all data saved in the guest session as well. If your smartphone doesn't have Android 5.0
Lollipop installed, you should check for a pre-
loaded guest mode. Some brands such as Xiaomi,
LG, Samsung and Huawei pre-load an app that
enables you to use guest mode on your
smartphone. Different brands name this app differently, so look in your phone's app drawer
for apps with names similar to Kids' Mode or
Guest Mode. Some Android phones have guest
mode embedded at the system level. For
example the LG G3 has a guest mode that you can access by going to Settings > General > Privacy > Guest Mode . If your phone doesn't have this feature, the most
effective way to keep your personal data safe is
by locking down certain apps.

PhonesWhatsapp Voice Calling - Everything You Need To Know by imtech(op): 1:58am On Mar 19, 2015
WhatsApp, the most popular instant messaging
service used worldwide, has started rolling out
the voice calling feature to its users. The
company is rolling out the new feature in phases, and it appears some will have to wait longer than
others. Here are the answers to all your questions about
WhatsApp's voice calling feature. What is WhatsApp voice calling? Until recently, WhatsApp only let users send text messages to their contacts alongside allowing
sharing of files (including images, music or even
videos). With the addition of voice calling, the
app now allows voice calls over mobile data or
Wi-Fi - also called VoIP or Voice over Internet Protocol. WhatsApp's CEO, Jan Koum, had in February last
year announced plans to rollout the voice calling feature by the end of the year In October he
revealed that the rollout would be delayed till Q1 2015. Koum cited several obstacles including technical issues before the service could work
seamlessly. Interestingly, Koum had also
revealed that the WhatsApp development team
was working on ways to implement the voice
calling service in poor data coverage areas,
considering that many WhatsApp users in emerging markets are still on 2G networks. What does it cost? The service is free, and not charged by
WhatsApp. Much like other apps like Skype and
Viber offering VoIP, WhatsApp voice calling uses
a data connection to place a call, whether over
Wi-Fi or mobile data. This data use however can
be chargeable, based on your Internet plan. For users of unlimited broadband Internet plans,
the only worry is if the voice calling feature will
work properly on lower speeds once the FUP
limit is exhausted. Similarly, users of 2G and 3G
data plans who exhaust their allocated data will
have to after that point pay per KB used, which can go up to as high as Rs. 0.10 per 10KB on 2G
and Rs. 0.04 per 10KB on 3G. Soon after news about WhatsApp's voice calling
feature was reported last year, Indian telecom
player Airtel announced it would soon roll out a special plan to charge separately for data used
on VoIP calls, although the company backtracked on this soon after, saying it was waiting for Trai's consultation paper on OTT
players. It will be interesting to see how this
plays out once WhatsApp voice calling really
takes off. Is it available to everyone? Unfortunately, WhatsApp is rolling out the voice
calling feature in phases, which means it is
currently available to limited users. The company
recently started pushing out the voice calling feature to all Android users with the invite
window open for several hours. As of filing this
report, the window has closed again, though it
may open again without notice. The wait for non-Android users might be longer
as WhatsApp's voice-calling feature is currently
rolling out to users of Google's mobile operating
system. Recently, leaked screenshots claimed to be from a jailbroken iPhone running the WhatsApp
v2.11.17.444 beta app showed off the UI of the
WhatsApp voice calling feature. The leaked
screenshots indicate that the feature might be
rolling out iOS users soon, though there's no
timeline yet for this rollout on Apple's OS or other non-Android platforms. How do I get voice calling? To get WhatsApp's voice calling feature on
Android, one has to download the latest version
(2.12.7) of WhatsApp for Android from the
company's official website. As of filing this report, Google Play still offers WhatsApp for Android version 2.12.5, which doesn't supports the
voice-calling feature. After the latest WhatsApp Android version is
installed, you have to ask someone with
WhatsApp voice calling already activated to make
a WhatsApp call to your number (yes that's the
only way). Remember a missed call doesn't activate
WhatsApp calling. One has to receive the call and
wait for a few seconds before disconnecting to
activate WhatsApp voice calling. Once WhatsApp
voice calling is enabled, users will notice a
completely revamped UI showing a new three- tab layout with Calls, Chats and Contacts. Check
our How to Activate WhatsApp Voice Calling post for more details. How does it compare to other services? WhatsApp voice calling is similar in function as
other VoIP apps, such as Skype, Viber, and Hangouts. However, considering that WhatsApp
is the most widely used instant messaging
service on mobile, having the voice calling
feature in the app only expands the user
experience. Some of the other apps offering voice calling
include BBM, which rolled the BBM Voice to Android and iPhone users back in February last year; Line, which launched a data-based calling service in March, and Hike, which rolled out voice calling (dubbed Hike Calls) in January this year for Android users. A word of caution A lot of people are waiting impatiently for
WhatsApp's voice calling feature and it seems
some people are exploiting this interest. Security
company Quick Heal in a blog has reported about a hoax message spreading around various
WhatsApp communities. The message reads, "Hey, I am inviting you to try
WhatsApp calling click here to activate now->
http://WhatsappCalling.com". Do not click on this
link - as we noted earlier the only way to activate
WhatsApp calling is to be running the latest
version of the Android app and to receive a voice call from someone who already has the service. Quick Heal explains, "this message is a hoax and
an attempt to get users to download malicious
apps and fill a survey form." So stay away from
such messages and enjoy WhatsApp voice calling
safely - once you finally receive it.

PhonesTurn Your Android Phone Into A Tennis Racquet With Motion Tennis Cast by imtech(op): 1:49am On Mar 19, 2015
Fresh from its efforts on iOS with the surprisingly
good Bowling Central, Rolocule Games has announced that its latest game, Motion Tennis
Cast, has been launched for Android devices. It is
meant to be played on an HDTV via Chromecast
or other screen mirroring options. The company is known for its efforts in bringing
Nintendo's motion control fad - brought about
with the once popular Wii console - to iOS and
now Android, winning the prestigious Edison
Award in San Francisco for innovation in the
entertainment industry. "We are really excited to bring Motion Tennis Cast
on Android. Not only does it bring the most
intuitive tennis experience to Android, it
showcases the power of Google ecosystem." said
Rohit Gupta, CEO of Rolocule Games. "Pretty soon
users will be able to use their Android Wear for playing games or staying fit using our award
winning motion tracking technology -
rolomotion - Motion Tennis Cast is a step in that
direction." In order to mimic the real life tennis experience
with Android devices as motion controllers,
there's support for a host of shot types. These
include drop and lob shots as well as a choice of
courts to play on. Multiplayer is included too.
There's Google Play achievements, and in a welcome move, the company has announced
support for Android Wear devices as motion
controllers is also coming soon. The game will
also calculate the number of calories burnt by the
user while playing. Like most mobile games nowadays, Motion
Tennis Cast is free to play. You'll need an Android
phone with Jelly Bean (Android 4.2.2) or above
along with screen mirroring via Chromecast,
Miracast, or AllShareCast-enabled Smart TVs. It
also works with Google's Chrome browser.
