Microsoft Just Launched Its Own Version Of Linux OS
We all know very well that the tech giant Microsoft has its own operating system with proprietary code, so they have never had to launch a Linux based operating system. However, now according to the latest reports, the tech giant Microsoft just launched its own version of Linux OS.


Microsoft Just Launched Its Own Version Of Linux OS

The tech giant Microsoft has its own operating system with proprietary code, so they have never had to launch a Linux based operating system. However, the company has been gradually approaching open source operating systems, being able to use the Bash console in Windows 10. Now, the company has directly launched a new operating system based on Linux.

Azure Sphere: Microsoft’s IoT environment
Its name is Azure Sphere, and it is a solution that has three components to guarantee the security and protection of your IoT devices. The first of these are certified microcontrollers for Azure Sphere, the second is a cloud-based security service called Azure Sphere Security, and finally, we have the Azure Sphere operating system based on the Linux kernel.

This is particularly interesting because although the tech giant Microsoft has its own operating system (Windows 10 IoT), it has preferred to create another one that is also based on Linux. In fact, the company itself boasts that “they combine the security innovations they have created in Windows and a custom Linux kernel to create a secure and reliable environment for IoT experiences.” Do they imply that Windows is not safe enough for this environment?


So many devices connected to the network are vulnerable to hacking, so security in them is paramount. With the Linux kernel, they make sure they are up to date on security without having to invest in it to patch vulnerabilities. In addition, the operating system is lighter and allows IoT device manufacturers to update them more easily. Windows 10, which is designed for computers, is less modular and much harder to scale for these devices.
The first devices will arrive at the end of the year

Currently, the tech giant Microsoft has confirmed that MediaTek is already manufacturing chips and certified hardware for Azure Sphere, and later will be adding other manufacturers. The first IoT devices based on Azure Sphere will reach the market by the end of the year, so in 2019 we will begin to see a greater presence of Internet of Things devices. The first development kits will begin to be deployed by mid-year. Among devices that can equip this hardware are electrical appliances, cars, sensors in electrical networks, etc.

For a few years, Microsoft, with Satya Nadella at the helm, has realized that Linux is not the enemy and that it can coexist perfectly with it, in addition to being able to use it. Microsoft has been collaborating Canonical for a year to launch an Ubuntu kernel designed specifically for the Azure cloud service, and today is a step in demonstrating that Linux can be very useful to the company.

This step is probably not the last, because the next thing we could see is how its applications and programs could reach Linux. Currently, most of their applications are available (more or less), since Android uses Linux and in it, we can run Office or Edge adapted for mobile. However, for desktop GNU/Linux distros this still does not happen.

OnePlus 6 Design Exposed By A Case Maker
We all know very well that recently, the well-known Chinese smartphone manufacturer OnePlus published an official photo of OnePlus 6 on its Twitter account. However, now according to the latest report, OnePlus 6 is fully exposed by a case manufacturer.

OnePlus 6 Design Exposed By A Case Maker

Recently, the well-known Chinese smartphone manufacturer OnePlus published an official photo of OnePlus 6 on its Twitter account. An image in which a small portion of its back shell was visible.

With the OnePlus 5T stock on the verge of running out globally, the official presentation of the OnePlus 6 is more than imminent. It is believed that it will be produced at the beginning of May. By then, we will have the opportunity to know in depth the new standard bearer of the Asian firm. The last one is, perhaps, the most revealing till to the date in terms of the OnePlus 6 design.
Design of the OnePlus 6, completely uncovered

We already had occasion to contemplate much of the design of the OnePlus 6 through previous leaks. However, the recent one can be considered the clearest and most concise when it comes to revealing the appearance of the next OnePlus smartphone.

We resort to the popular saying “a picture is worth a thousand words” so that you can read the design of the OnePlus 6 through the attached galleries.

The photos are from a known site that sells accessories for mobile and reveals the cases of OnePlus 6. We must make a point to point out that this type of leaks are usually very revealing and reliable-especially if they occur in the last phase of development of the model since it is known that accessory manufacturers usually have models of devices for that their products are available the same day or shortly after they are presented.



The notch on the screen does not surprise us. The CEO himself provided less than two weeks ago a real image of the top of the OnePlus 6 in which you could see the notch on the display. Nor is the rear part surprising, in which two cameras are arranged vertically, followed by the LED flash and the fingerprint sensor.

Instead, the front shows us something that till to the date we had not had a chance to contemplate. We refer to the lower part, in which only the screen frame appears. If these images just confirmed the final design of OnePlus 6, it would be clear that OnePlus reduced the lower frame to maximum, very close to the result achieved by Apple in its iPhone X.

Although facing the experience of using the smartphone can be a more than interesting change, we must also check to what extent it affects the final price of the phone. OnePlus, which in the beginning was characterized by offering smartphones with a great balance between cost and features, has been increasing its price gradually over the last three years.
Sign of a significant price increase


However, this change in design could be paired in parallel with a significant price increase, perhaps more prominent than the last ones applied to the OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T. Why? Because the technical solution necessary to reduce the lower frame of the screen requires, among other things, a flexible OLED panel to be folded in said section. A solution that only applied Apple last year and that has raffled much of the brands of Android smartphones not only for the difficulty of its manufacture but for the additional cost that this implies for the final price of the equipment.

Xiaomi Just Launched Its Black Shark Gaming Smartphone
We all know very well that Razer the well-known brand of computer peripherals focused on gaming jumped into the market of smartphones and was the first company to launch a smartphone for gamers. However, now according to the latest reports, the well-known Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xiaomi just launched its most awaited Black Shark gaming smartphone simply to beat Razer’s gaming smartphone.


Xiaomi Just Launched Its Black Shark Gaming Smartphone
Xiaomi has not wanted to make a launch over the top of its new smartphone, because the so-called Xiaomi Black Shark of the brand has not been manufactured by the Chinese firm, but by Black Shark, a company specializing in mobile gaming whose main shareholder is Xiaomi.

A few minutes ago the company just launched what we can consider as the first Xiaomi’s gaming mobile phone in China. The Black Shark smartphone comes with a design that is most unusual for the current mobile phone market, although it resembles the gamer phone par excellence, the Razer Phone marketed last year.

Features of the Xiaomi Black Shark

Starting with the most important thing. In the front we have a screen of 5.99-inches with an aspect ratio of 18:9 and Full HD+ resolution, being the first smartphone for gamers to present a feature of this type. Under it, there is also room for a fingerprint sensor, something we hesitated to see the first images of the Xiaomi Black Shark.


Below this panel, and as we were advancing before, we have a 10nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 CPU working together with an Adreno 630 GPU and 6 or 8 GB RAM options, being one of the most powerful phones we can find on a daily basis. This has allowed it to obtain nothing more and nothing less than 279,464 in the Antutu test. And of course, this gaming smartphone will arrive with not less than 64 and 128 GB of internal storage.

IMG-1-3

It is backed by a non-removable 4000 mAh battery with fast charging technology that offers up to 5 hours of play, something for which the phone has a cooling system that tries to avoid overheating the device during long gaming sessions.

As for the other features of the Xiaomi Black Shark, we see that the smartphone comes with a double rear camera on the back with sensors of 12MP and 20MP with aperture f/1.7. The front camera mounts a 20-megapixel sensor that takes care of the mobile’s face unlocking. As for the OS, we have a custom user interface called JOY UI, with functions similar to those of MIUI, the operating system of Xiaomi.


These are the general Speccifications of the Xiaomi Black Shark:-
Screen: 5.99-inches with a resolution Full HD+ (2160 x 1080 pixels) and 18:9
Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 octa-core
GPU: Qualcomm Adreno GPU 630
RAM: 6/8 GB of RAM
Storage: 64/128 GB of internal storage UFS 2.1 not expandable
Rear Camera: 12 + 20-megapixel dual rear camera with an aperture of f/1.75, autofocus PDAF and dual LED flash
Front Camera: 20-megapixel front camera with aperture f/2.0
Battery: 4000 mAh with Quick Charge 3.0
Dimensions: 161.6 x 75.4 x 9.25mm
Weight: 190g
Biometrics: Fingerprint reader and facial recognition
SIM: Dual SIM
Connectivity: LTE, Wi-Fi ac Dual Band, Bluetooth 5.0, USB Type-C, GPS, A-GPS, GLONASS


Price of the Xiaomi Black Shark

Despite the spectacular design, we are not facing an overly expensive smartphone. According to the company, the Xiaomi Black Shark of 6 GB costs 2999 yuan, that is, about $480. The variant with 8GB of RAM is priced at 3499 yuan (approximately $560). The Black Shark Gaming Controller, the device driver, is priced at 179 yuan, just over $30, but the company will send it for free to the first users who book the phone.

Although today you can anything online from eBay or Craigslist, it is recommended to check on the condition of the MacBook physically. There other things which are difficult to examine when you are viewing the machine in pictures or videos. If you can be able to hold by hand try to flap it and then open it. This will enable you to know if the hinges are not tightened on the MacBook.

Remember when you purchase it with the loose hinges; you will have to take it to a technician for repair for replacement of the hinges which is an additional cost.

Additionally, when examining the MacBook physically, you will have an opportunity to check its external ports. Try to test each port to ensure it is functional and no port is filled with dirt. As you examine the ports, ensure to pay attention to any damage on the surface of the MacBook. Minor damages that are caused by wear and tear are understandable, but when the damage is large it could have affected also the inner parts of the MacBook.

To check the keyboard if it is fully functional, you can try typing a document and ensure to test all the characters to make sure that it is working properly.

You can as well run the system’s keyboard viewer panel to ascertain whether each key-press displays on the screen.

3. Head to the trackpad

The third step is to check the trackpad. Ensure it produces a good click when depressed and also ensure the trackpad works smoothly. After a long period of use, trackpads can wear out making it produce clicks anyhow which can make it to frequently select things or click buttons.

Apple has designed its products especially MacBooks with glass-made trackpads which are not easily broken. However, they can sometimes crack and you might not notice the crack, therefore, ensure to examine the edges and corners of the trackpad carefully.

4. Check the serial number of the MacBook

Apple’s MacBooks are stylish and they are attractive on the surface. While you might be tempted by its look, the serial number is also a crucial factor to put in mind when purchasing a used MacBook.

Examining its serial number is significant. You can find the serial number on the bottom of the machine close to its hinge.

Check, to see whether the serial number on the surface of the MacBook is the same as the one on the software of the machine. To see the serial number in the software, you need to switch on the MacBook and click on “About this Mac”. Check the last field which is the serial number.

Ensure there is no difference on the serial number on the surface of the MacBook and the one on the software.

The MacBook’s serial number is also helpful in case you want to track the service together with the Macs warrant details that you want to buy.

5. Check the battery condition

Apple To Launch iPhone X With Triple-Lens Rear Camera
We all know very well that the well-known Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei is the first company in the smartphone market to introduce a smartphone with a triple-lens rear camera. However, now according to the latest reports, the tech giant Apple to launch a new generation iPhone X with a triple-lens rear camera.

Apple To Launch iPhone X With Triple-Lens Rear Camera

The well-known Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei is the first company in the smartphone market to introduce the first smartphone with a triple camera system. We are talking about the Huawei P20 Pro, a device that has the best camera on the market. And it seems that the tech giant Apple wants to follow its footsteps by launching an iPhone X with the triple camera for 2019.

Although the Huawei P20 Pro is really difficult to repair, no one can deny that its camera is a wonder or rather its triple-lens system that offers simply stunning captures, rising as the phone with the best camera, a milestone for the Asian firm. That’s why we should not be surprised by the latest report that says that the tech giant Apple is preparing a new third generation iPhone X with a triple camera system that does not seem too crazy.



Apple could present an iPhone X with the triple camera lens

It has been the Taiwanese newspaper Economic Daily News who has published that the camera of the new iPhone X with the triple camera will have a 5x zoom, although we do not know if it will be optical, digital or hybrid. Although taking into account that the camera of the Huawei P20 Pro has an optical zoom of 3x, hybrid of 5x and digital of 10x, we can expect that the camera of the third generation iPhone X has a similar configuration.

Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst at KGI Securities and the top exponent regarding leaks related to the Cupertino-based company, reported at the time that he does not expect many changes in the camera of Apple’s next flagship, although things could change after the success of the Huawei P20 Pro and, although the next iPhone X still has a dual camera system, the third generation bet on a triple configuration.



Recall that Huawei has always been a step behind in this section with respect to its main competitors and the arrival of a triple camera system to its main workhorse has made the Asian firm climb several steps to position itself in the first level as soon as to photographic quality.

It would make a lot of sense for Apple to decide to bet on a similar system. Considering the quality of the photographs taken by its current flagship, the idea of an iPhone X with the triple camera is really interesting.

This new terminal would be presented in 2019 and, taking into account the date on which the company showed the world the first iPhone X, we can expect that the new third generation iPhone X will see the light during the month of September 2019, so that the manufacturer has more than enough margin to present a new iPhone X with triple camera.

FAKE ‘Chrome Download’ Link Tries To Install Adware And Malware
We all know very well that whenever we recommend downloading a program we remember the importance of doing it from its main or official web page, making sure to download the latest version and, in addition, not download any type of potentially unwanted program, or PUP, that could endanger our security.

FAKE ‘Chrome Download’ Link Tries To Install Adware And Malware



Whenever we recommend downloading a program we remember the importance of doing it from its main or official web page, making sure to download the latest version and, in addition, not download any type of potentially unwanted program, or PUP, that could endanger our security.

However, malicious users are increasingly trying to deceive us, and so we find campaigns as complex as the ads to download the browser that shows a false URL that does not correspond to the address of the page in question.

As the Bleeping Computer website warns, in recent weeks about malicious advertising campaigns which are being carried out that seek to take us to third-party websites when we try to download a browser such as Google Chrome. One of the latest malicious campaigns we can find of this type focuses on Bing, the default search engine of Microsoft Edge and Cortana.


One of the first things we usually do after installing the operating system is to download an alternative web browser, and for this, we usually resort to what we have at hand, ie Internet Explorer or Edge and Bing. A simple search should take us to the Google website to download the browser, however, many queries are showing an ad, which seems to Google, to make this download.

Despite the fact that the ad shows Google as its web address, in fact, if we access it we will reach another different web page, a malicious page that offers us to download an unwanted application installer, and it is an installer which is already detected by VirusTotal.

If for some reason we come to this page from Google Chrome, then instead of a web to download the browser we will see a page that offers us to download extensions for the browser, malicious extensions that endanger our browsing and system security

Also Read: Best Safe And Free Websites For Downloading Windows Software

Normally these types of campaigns usually remain active for a few days, because when they are reported they do not take long to be eliminated.
Browsers are not the only programs that can be downloaded from fake download websites

In addition to these advertising campaigns, many well-known programs also have visibility problems in the main Internet search engines, such as GIMP or VLC.

Some malicious users have created web pages in order to profit from the free software offering false download of these popular programs. The problem with this is that, in addition, these websites tend to be positioned above the official websites, so when we search for “download gimp” we will see several unofficial websites to download this software positioned above the official one.

The same happens with VLC and other programs, and although some websites can offer us the official version of the program, some of the ones that appear in the previous capture are well known for having distributed these applications through an installer that, In addition to generating revenue at the expense of users, they ended up filling our computer with junk applications, including malware.

We must always be very careful with the websites from which we are going to download software, checking and making sure that they are always the official pages, not a website that we have reached from an advertisement or a page that positions better and tries to profit at the expense of the users.

Have you ever found these types of ads or fake websites to download applications from the Internet? Simply share all your views and thoughts in the comment section below.

Apple Now Runs On 100% Renewable Energy
We all know very well that the tech giant Apple has been considered for several years as the world’s most “green” technology company, according to a Greenpeace ranking. However, now according to the latest reports, the tech giant Apple now runs on 100% renewable energy.

Apple Now Runs On 100% Renewable Energy

The tech giant Apple has been considered for several years as the world’s most “green” technology company, according to a Greenpeace ranking. However, the company had a complicated relationship years ago with environmentalism and green energy. Everything has changed after considerable efforts to fully embrace renewable energy.

In the fall of 2016, the company joined a global initiative called RE100, claiming a 100% renewable energy target. This proclamation followed a 2015 agreement that made the tech giant Apple the largest corporate renewable energy company in the United States.

Apple Now Uses 100% renewable energy

According to a company press release, as well as a detailed feature of Fast Company, the tech giant Apple’s facilities now operate entirely on green power. This includes data centres, Apple’s new headquarters in Cupertino, retail stores and other facilities spread across 43 countries.

The 100% value, however, applies only to Apple’s own facilities, not its various production partners and other operations. But Apple has also persuaded a total of 23 companies – including nine new ones – from its supply chain to make a 100% promise of renewable energy.

The achievement was achieved in part by the Cupertino company’s investments in solar and wind farms near many of its data centres, as well as large solar installations on its own buildings, such as those at its Apple Park headquarters.

In total, Apple has 25 renewable energy projects worldwide, producing 626 megawatts of generating capacity. The company is working to bring 15 more projects online in 11 countries, collectively capable of producing 1.4 gigawatts of clean and renewable energy.

“We are committed to leaving the world better than what we find. After years of hard work, we are proud to have reached this significant milestone. We will continue to push the boundaries of what is possible with the materials of our products, how we recycle them, our facilities and our work with suppliers to establish new and renewable sources of renewable energy because we know future depends on it.” CEO Tim Cook said in a statement.

A Long Green Path

Despite having a public environmental responsibility campaign that includes regular progress reports, announcements and mentions on product presentations, Apple has been in conflict with activists for years. Greenpeace, for example, would rate the company near the bottom of its list of greenest companies in the consumer electronics industry.

That began to change in 2007 when Steve Jobs released an open letter entitled “The Greener Apple,” with a series of plans related to the removal of mercury from the company’s products, as well as recycling programs.

The company has accelerated these efforts with Cook. Apple continued to push the green power button, hired Lisa Jackson, a former EPA administrator in the Obama administration, as vice president of sustainability and government affairs, and earlier this year the company offered a billion-dollar bonus to finance green energy products.

YouTube Has Been Hacked & Lots Of Videos Deleted

‘Despacito’ the most watched video in the history of YouTube, has been removed from the platform after what seems an attack carried out by cybercriminals. In addition, other videos of stars of the current music scene, such as Shakira, Taylor Swift or Drake have also been affected, leaving some of the creations unused for their reproduction in the most popular video network in the world.

In the case of the song of Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee, in addition, the cybercriminals have changed the cover that is currently shown (although the video clip cannot be reproduced) and have replaced it with a photograph of the series Money Heist.

Although it is still unknown to what extent the attack has transpired, that the affected channels belong to VEVO in its entirety hints that perhaps the vulnerability is located in the manager itself on YouTube as such. For the time being no statements have been made by either party, but it is expected that some information about it will be issued in the next few hours.

One of the main novelties that came with the iOS 11.2 update was ‘Apple Pay’, the mobile payment service of Apple that adds to the fashion of using our phones as virtual wallets. The problem comes when they begin to overwhelm you to use this service, and this is what the tech giant Apple is doing, annoying users to start using Apple Pay.

Apple Forcing Users To Use Apple Pay


One of the main novelties that came with the iOS 11.2 update was ‘Apple Pay’, the mobile payment service of Apple that adds to the fashion of using our phones as virtual wallets. The problem comes when they begin to overwhelm you to use this service, and this is what the tech giant Apple is doing, annoying users to start using Apple Pay.

Also Read: How To Control Your iPhone from Your PC

Several users have reported that Apple has been pestering them to start using Apple Pay. A red circle appears in the Settings icon located on the home screen, this icon is to remind you to start using Apple Pay.

Do you see a red circle on the iPhone screen? It is for you to use Apple Pay

Once you touch the icon, an Apple message appears reminding you that you have to give your credit card number to start using your mobile payment service. Do not want to use Apple Pay? Well, we are afraid that you will be with that red symbol on the home screen until you decide to add a credit card.


Obviously, it is an aggressive campaign by the manufacturer based in Cupertino to get their new service boost. Currently, according to the company specialized in data analysis 451 Research, 34 percent of new users of an iPhone link their card to start using Apple Pay during the initial configuration of the phone. But Apple wants more.

Apple gets a lot of performance from its services. Proof of this is the more than 20,000 million dollars that came in thanks to this business. And the company wants to spend 32.7 billion dollars on the change for the fiscal year of 2020. And therefore does not hesitate to squeeze its users to force them to use Apple Pay Cash, or at least link a credit card.

If we take into account that the American manufacturer pockets 15 percent of the amount made with the credit card linked to its mobile payment service it is clear that it is a very lucrative market from which the tech giant Apple wants to take its share of the cake.

For now accounts come to Apple. The company obtained, according to the venture capital firm Loup Ventures, 2 million weekly users since Apple Pay Cash arrived with iOS 11. A figure that demonstrates the good health of the mobile payment system of the manufacturer, although partly motivated for that harassment that users are suffering.

WhatsApp Plus Is A Fake Malicious App, Don’t Download It!
According to the latest reports, the well-known WhatsApp Plus is not going to give us any kind of additional functionality within the instant messaging client. No, instead, the only thing it will do is simply take personal information from our mobile device and also leave ‘its brand’, in the form of malware.

WhatsApp Plus Is A Fake Malicious App, Don’t Download It!

You have to be very careful with third-party applications, especially in the case of instant messaging services, social networks, and others. With the premise of giving us extra features, some collect information from our mobile devices or infect them with malware.

This is the case of WhatsApp Plus, which someday existed as a really useful app, and is now in the Google Play Store and the App Store for Android and iOS respectively. But now it’s just a hoax.

This new application WhatsApp Plus is not going to give us any kind of additional functionality within the instant messaging client. No, instead, the only thing it will do is take personal information from our mobile device and also leave ‘its brand’, in the form of malware.


Researchers at Malwarebytes have discovered it, and explain that the application displays a golden logo based on the WhatsApp logo – as was the case with the ‘WhatsApp gold version’. In addition to this logo, a URL is displayed, and a permission ‘box’ of permission to redirect to a download.



WhatsApp Plus does not contribute anything, it is a fake version that installs malware and steals your personal data This app, WhatsApp Plus promise to give you the ability to use four WhatsApp accounts on the same mobile device, hide the notification of ‘writing…’, eliminate double ticks and the blue tick that confirms the reading of a message, and so on.

But the only thing it will do on our mobile device, after what has been described above, is to show us a text written in Arabic. This text comes after having granted those permissions, and it simply means that the malware is already on our device, so we have already gotten ourselves into the problem.

These types of problems are avoided by installing only official applications of the services we use, both instant messaging and social networks and others. WhatsApp has for years been opposed to alternative clients, such as Facebook with Instagram, precisely because of the same. Although they maintain an active fight against these apps, from time to time they ‘slip’ into the Google Play Store and the App Store.

Mark Zuckerberg Says He’s Still The Best Person To Run Facebook

From the past few weeks, the Cambridge Analytica scandal is trending on the social media platform. Because of that, Facebook has come under fire from lots of people, with a lot of people deleting their Facebook account in protest.

Well, the Cambridge Analytica fire has tarnished the reputation of Facebook‘s completely. Mark Zuckerberg is being asked continually to justify the actions of the company in the past and what’s coming in the future.

As per the latest estimates by Facebook, the number of affected people in Cambridge Analytica scandal has raised to 87 million now. Well, Facebook has also admitted that they scan people’s Messenger photos and messages to prevent abuse on the social networking platform.

Well, all of this happenings raised some serious question about Mark Zuckerberg’s presence at Facebook. One of the Facebook’s investors who holds 1 billion worth of company’s stocks called out that Zuckerberg should step down as the chairman.

During an interview with the reporters on Wednesday, he was asked whether he still thinks that he is the right person to run Facebook on which Mark Zuckerberg said “Yes”. Zuckerberg said “I think life is about learning from mistakes, and working out what you need to do to move forward”

He also said that he and Facebook made some mistakes, but, when you’re creating a platform like Facebook that is “unprecedented” mistakes can happen. “If we got this right we would’ve messed something else up.”

According to the latest reports, the tech giant Apple will abandon Intel microprocessors on its Macs and start using its own exclusive chips from 2020 according to Mark Gurman, who has an unblemished reputation when it comes to publishing about future plans for the company.

Apple To Ditch Intel to Use Its Own Chips In Macs

The tech giant Apple will abandon Intel microprocessors on its Macs and start using its own exclusive chips from 2020 according to Mark Gurman, who has an unblemished reputation when it comes to publishing about future plans for the company.

The plan to abandon the dependence of Intel is part of an initiative called Kalamata which seeks to unify the experience of use in all the devices of the company, like iPhones, iPads and Macs. Although Gurman says that the plan is already underway, if it is done, it would require several steps from both Apple and developers.

The news has been bad on Wall Street, as the giant chip maker Intel’s shares have fallen by 9% in the last minutes.

It is not the first time that the tech giant Apple decides to migrate microprocessor architecture on their Macs, in fact, it is the third. The first time occurred when the Motorola 68K was changed, used from the Macintosh 128K until March 1994 when the company launched the first computer with a PowerPC processor.

The PowerPC microprocessors were a joint initiative between Motorola, IBM and Apple. It represented an immense step in terms of performance. It also started the processor war against Intel. The tech giant Apple claimed that its chips, based on a RISC architecture, were much more efficient, capable of being much faster without the need to consume so much energy,

In fact, for a good period of time, Apple manufactured computers with PowerPC processors capable of delivering much greater performance than PCs with Intel processors. But it was not forever.

The PowerPC G5, although extremely powerful consumed so much energy that Apple was never able to fit them inside a laptop. Although the PowerBook G4 was extremely popular and represented years of advantage over the competition, in terms of performance, autonomy and design, Intel not only stepped on the heels but over time advanced both in speed and efficiency. The PowerBook G5 never arrived.

WWDC 2005 arrived and Steve Jobs announced what millions of fans of the company never imagined listening: Apple would adopt Intel processors. Today it seems normal, but at that time it was inconceivable. Still, it happened. Mac OS X always had a hidden “twin brother” that ran on x86 architecture. Apple made a fairly clean transition through universal binaries, that is, applications compiled for the two architectures.

Years later support for PowerPC was abandoned taking us to where we are today, where Apple is faced with the same problem: Intel processors on Macs represent two problems:-

1. Dependence on a third party, in this case, the giant chip maker Intel.

2. They are not enough anymore. Intel has not been able to adapt to the current times when extremely efficient and fast processors are needed. Apple has been able to design extremely fast ARM chips in ultra-portable devices. iPads are faster than most MacBooks. That cannot continue happening.

Therefore the tech giant Apple embarks on a long migration process that, according to Bloomberg, would be announced in 2020. Surely they have macOS running under ARM architecture for years. Surely Xcode will allow you to compile applications for the two architectures.

If the tech giant Apple is able to make the transition in the same way as in 2005, consumers will not be affected. In return, we will have much lighter laptops, much thinner, with much more battery and above all, much faster.

Using similar processors (or the same ones) as in iPhones and iPads, it is possible that the company is developing an iOS version for laptops as well, a new generation of the operating system capable of using keyboard and pointer, that is, mouse or trackpad.

Google Is Shutting Down Its URL Shortening Service
We all know very well that the tech giant Google’s URL Shortener service is one of the best URL shortening services available on the market. However, now according to the latest reports, recently, the tech giant Google itself has announced the closure of its well-known URL shortening service.

Google Is Shutting Down Its URL Shortening Service

If you have a link to copy, but it aesthetically looks bad because it’s over, then certainly you’ve already turned to the popular URL shortcuts.

One of the best known is the tech giant Google’s URL Shortener (), but this service has the days counted and will be closed as early as 1 year.

To make life easier for those who want to copy lengthy URLs, the tech giant Google’s URL shortener was created in 2009.

Earlier we wrote about this service here that became massively used by Internet users, since it allows not only URL shortening, save previously shortened URLs and still know how many clicks were made on that short link.

If you use this service, you will certainly be dismayed to learn that the tech giant Google’s developer team announced today that will be shut down in exactly one year, by March 30, 2019.

The closing process will begin in April, and the links created so far will remain active. However, after April 13, users who have never used the service, or who have used it anonymously, will no longer be able to create short links.

Those who use the service may continue to do so by the time of closure.

Moreover, the tech giant Google says that this closure is intended to promote the use of the service Firebase Dynamic Links, which allows, with the same link, access different locations, depending on the device you access.

But for those who want just shorten URLs, the tech giant Google recommends using services like Bitly and Ow.ly.

Huawei Pro Beats Galaxy S9, iPhone X & Pixel 2 in D x O Mark
We all know very well that the well-known Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei recently, announced its top of the ranges, the P20 and P20 Pro. However, now according to the latest reports, Huawei P20 Pro managed to beat Galaxy S9, iPhone X & Pixel 2 in the DxOMark test.

Huawei P20 Pro Beats Galaxy S9, iPhone X & Pixel 2 In The DxOMark

The well-known Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei recently, announced its top of the ranges, the P20 and P20 Pro with the best processor from the Chinese manufacturer, top notched screens and other news, but the focus is photography: the P20 Pro has the triple camera, with a 40-megapixel sensor. And it overtook all the smartphones in the market by a large advantage.

In the DxOMark, which analyzes the cameras of smartphones in depth, the P20 Pro reached 109 points. It hit the Galaxy S9+ (99 points), former leader of the rankings, Google Pixel 2 (98 points) and iPhone X (97 points). The Huawei P20, which features a dual camera and a 20-megapixel sensor, also performed well in the ratings with 102 points.

The P20 Pro’s triple camera consists of a 20 MP monochrome sensor with f/1.6 lens, an 8 MP sensor with f/2.4 telephoto lens and a 40 MP sensor with f/1.8 lens. The latter has an area of 1/1.78 inches, which is approximately double the Galaxy S9 sensor (1/2.55 inches), and captures 20% more light, compensating for the smaller aperture of the lens.


The DxOMark says that “the large sensor in the main camera combined with the black and white sensor allows excellent performance in low illumination and category-leading dynamic range; the 80mm telephoto lens in combination with the high-resolution monochrome chip offers the best zoom performance we’ve seen on a smartphone so far. The monochrome chip is also used to help generate excellent bokeh simulation in the P20 Pro.”

The camera is good at practically everything, according to DxOMark: the noise is well controlled; autofocus is fast and accurate; the dynamic range is wide especially with plenty of light, and the bokeh effect (background blur) is excellent. The few criticisms were due to artifacts in scenes with HDR; exposure instabilities and white balance when zoom is activated; and orange or pink markings under strong light and indoors.

There is no price or release date yet for the Huawei P20 Pro, but it may be difficult to get one if you are staying in the US, yes, it will not be released in the United States as the company faces problems with the US government.

password/pin is the safest because if you dont give it out it has to be brute forced, it cant be duplicated. Biometrics ( fingerprint & face id) can be easily copied and duplicated, even the retina can be duplicted with a good enough camera.

But the truth is nothing is unhackable.
