RomanceSex With Robots Will Be ‘mind Blowing’ Says Android Expert by tdf561(op): 8:22pm On Nov 14, 2016
Sex with robots is predicted to become so popular that it will eventually overtake human intercourse by around 2050.

An expert has revealed that robot sex will be ‘mind blowing’, and the bots could even improve your skills in the bedroom.

While there have been concerns that sexbots will replace human relationships, Matt McMullen, CEO of RealDoll, a sex doll manufacturer, suggests that this is not the case.

He believes robots will become an option for people looking to spice up their love lives.

ComputersHow To Control Your Battery Usage In Windows 10 by tdf561(op): 10:27pm On Nov 05, 2016
Uh oh, the battery charge on your Windows 10 laptop is down to 10 percent, and there's no AC outlet in sight. What can you do? Well, you want to squeeze as much as you can out of your current battery charge before it loses all its juice. Let's look at how different settings in Windows 10 can coax your laptop to last longer on a single charge.

First, you can determine how long before your screen turns off and your PC goes to sleep, both of which can extend your existing battery charge. Click on the Start button > Read on at http://etech9ja..com.ng/2016/11/how-to-control-your-battery-usage-in.html

ComputersMicrosoft Edge Comes Out On Top In Browser Security Test by tdf561(op): 9:53pm On Nov 05, 2016
According to the independent security researchers at NSS Labs, Microsoft Edge is the best browser available when it comes to protecting Windows 10 users from phishing attempts and social engineering attacks. Or at least it’s better than the two most popular non-Microsoft browsers, Chrome and Firefox.

NSS tested the current builds of all three browsers that went live near the end of August this year. Each was subjected to the same set of more than 5,000 malware samples and nearly 1,000 phishing URLs, and Edge came out on top in both tests. In fact, of the three browsers, Edge was the only one to score higher than 90%.

Edge blocked an impressive 99% of the socially engineered malware (or SEM) that was thrown at it, thanks to two key Microsoft technologies: SmartScreen URL Rep and App Rep, reputation-based defenses that protect against malicious links and downloads. Chrome followed at 85.8% and Firefox came third at 78.3%. Both Chrome and Firefox leverage Google’s Safe Browsing service.

When it came to phishing protection, Edge slipped slightly — down to 91.4%. Chrome was also down a few points to 82.4% and Firefox actually made up ground, climbing to 81.4%. In addition to offering the best defense against phishing, Edge was also the quickest to block new phishing sites that were encountered. At 24 minutes, Edge was nearly three times quicker than Firefox and almost four times quicker than Chrome in NSS’ testing.

Huawei isn't the only Chinese electronics juggernaut looking to break into European and US markets, but it's the one making the most noise this year. The Mate 9 is Huawei's latest flagship phablet, and it arrives alongside a new Fit wearable.

Huawei will be looking to the Mate 9 to fill some of the void left by the demise of the recalled Galaxy Note 7, with the Mate's 5.9-inch display, hefty 4,000 mAh battery and generous 4 GB of RAM. It's all powered by Huawei's fastest processor yet, the Kirin 960.

Huawei Technologies took the wraps of a new premium phone on Thursday, adding a new artificial intelligence feature it hopes will help it close the gap with Apple and market leader Samsung, which is reeling from scrapping its flagship phone.

The Mate 9 is aimed squarely at the top end of the $400 billion global smartphone market, where professional users are looking for fast phones with long battery life.

It includes a feature that enables the device to learn about the habits of its user and automatically put the most frequently used apps in easy reach—unlike, for example, Apple’s iPhone AAPL -1.25% , where icons that may occupy many screens apart from the start screen have to be manually ordered....

PhonesMotorola Is Thirsty For New Moto Mods by tdf561(op): 11:34pm On Nov 03, 2016
Motorola's dream of a slick, modular smartphone is struggling to take off. The base handset is perfectly capable, but the ecosystem of Moto Mods is still pretty sparse. After its launch accessories, we've seen a Hasselblad attachment and little else. To solve the problem, Motorola is teaming up with Verizon and Indiegogo for a new developer competition.

The challenge is simple: Create the best Moto Mod out there. If the Moto team likes your work, you'll be invited to a hackathon and encouraged to set up a crowdfunding campaign. Finalists will pitch at Motorola's headquarters in Chicago for "a shot at funding" and distribution in Verizon stores.

Motorola has tried to jump-start the developer community before. The Moto Mods Development Kit (MDK) was launched in the US last summer, followed by China, Europe and South America in September, and Canada last month. The company .........

Apple is stepping up the aesthetics of its iOS 10 platform. The release of iOS 10.2 beta to public beta testers can prove this. The new beta build reportedly comes with new wallpapers, emojis, a new widget and a brand new fullscreen effect for the Messages app. It also comes with new Music sorting options.

According to 9To5Mac, Music sorting was previously only possible via the preference panel in the Settings app. With the new beta, users can actually sort songs while in the Music app. Also, new filters have been added, so users can now sort playlists by Title, Type and Recently added.

In addition to the new Music sorting options, iOS 10.2 beta also enables Star Ratings. Users can enable this functionality by heading to the Music app preferences in the Settings app. Once Star Ratings is switched on, users rate a song by activating 3D Touch options when clicking on a track...

Now, an entirely new type of computer that blends optical and electrical processing, reported Oct. 20 in the journal Science, could get around this impending processing constraint and solve those problems.

PhonesCase That Makes Your Iphone Look Like An Exploded Note 7 by tdf561(op): 5:00pm On Oct 20, 2016
In the ultimate "salt-in-the-wound" move, someone's made a decal to make your iPhone look like an exploded Samsung Galaxy Note 7.

It's called the Explo-Sung iPhone case, and it fits every iPhone since the iPhone 5. It even has the Samsung logo on the back for "authenticity." It's actually quite striking and beautiful in its own way.

Now, we don't find Samsung's unfortunate Galaxy Note 7 debacle funny at all, but it's hard not to appreciate the gall, wit, and even the sheer inevitability, of this idea. Of course someone was going to come out with this. It was only a matter of time.

Anyways, we saw this decal on the site Uniqfind.com for $24.99, which sells other interesting tech cases and accessories.

PhonesThe Pixel's Wallpaper App Is Now Available For All Android Phones by tdf561(op): 4:24pm On Oct 20, 2016
If you've ever picked up a Chromebook, you've probably noticed that Google loads them up with dozens of gorgeous wallpapers. But for some reason, Google has only offered a paltry handful lately on its Android devices.

That changed with the Pixel and Pixel XL, which came with a great Wallpapers app with the same variety and quality we're used to seeing on Chromebooks, and now the app is available for all Android devices.

The Wallpapers app, which is now live in the Play Store, offers images in five different categories: Earth, landscapes, cityscapes, life and textures. Each category has more images than I wanted to count, and there's an option that'll cycle through a particular category with new options every day.

Naturally, you can also access your device's default wallpapers as well as your own photos in this app, as well.

If you want to see more from the photographer who took each shot, you can tap an "explore" button to see details on the artist and location -- it'll bring you to the shot on Google+ or the 500px photo-sharing community.

And Google says it'll keep adding more images over time. It's not the kind of app that's going to change how you use your phone, but it might just make it a little more pleasant to look at.

Those involved in the design and manufacture of hardware products understand that one of the most important phases of the process is testing. That’s the point when all of the assumptions that have been made need to be validated.

The only way to do that is to build hundreds or thousands of units and subject them to a battery of tests. Even then, you might still find problems not anticipated once devices get into the hands of thousands of customers, but the goal is to be sure they are relatively minor.

The basic tests conducted include subjecting the products to a wide range of temperatures, humidity and physical abuse, including shock and vibration.
