Around 100 protesters organized by the United Service Workers West union and the Rev. Jesse Jackson yesterday staged a “brief but lively” demonstration at the Apple Campus, calling on the company to create better pay and conditions for low-paid contract workers. Jesse Jackson last month wrote to Tim Cook urging the company to create “world-class working conditions” for contractors like security guards, who are not entitled to the same job security and perks as direct employees....

As rightly pointed out by ArsTechnica, most of the recent increase in LTE speed have been offered by combining chunks of spectrum across multiple antennas to magnify the bandwidth. It is common for the LTE modems to blend in different technology to offer the speeds, phones usually use chunks of 20MHz spectrum along with a higher rated QAM (Quadrature amplitude modulation) which is in turn expected to increase the data transmitted over the same link....

In a new move in the on-going dispute between Apple and Qualcomm, the chip supplier has sued four iPhone suppliers directly. Qualcomm has already filed a countersuit against Apple itself. The mess began when the FTC accused Qualcomm of effectively giving itself a monopoly by saying that it would charge Apple higher patent royalties unless the company agreed not to source baseband processors from its competitors. Apple then sued Qualcomm in several different countries, Qualcomm countersued, tried to get iPhone imports banned and said that iPhone suppliers were withholding around $1B in overdue royalties....

The Hateful Eight director Quentin Tarantino says that he personally worked on editing the movie into a four-episode miniseries for Netflix, complete with extra footage. When fans discovered that the movie had been split up into episodes for Netflix, there was immediate outcry over the streaming service supposedly butchering Tarantino’s movie, but others pointed out that it was unlikely to have happened without Tarantino’s approval. Released in 2015, The Hateful Eight is about a group of eight strangers who gather together to shelter from a storm at a remote lodge....

It’ll also leave your handset in the bootloop status and a normal restart of your phone won’t gonna help you out of it....

A new trailer for Rambo: Last Blood is coming next week, Sylvester Stallone confirms. Stallone of course became a movie icon thanks to his performance as Rocky Balboa in 1976’s Oscar-winning classic Rocky, but he helped cement his reputation as an action movie legend when he took on the role of vengeful Vietnam vet John Rambo in 1982’s First Blood. Costing only $15 million to make, the film took in $47 million at the box office ($144 million adjusted for inflation) and proved that Stallone could carry a movie outside the Rocky universe....

Rampage is one of the more entertaining video game to movie adaptations, with the demise of Malin Akerman’s villain being a total homage to the game. The history of video game movie adaptations is a bleak one, kicking off with 1993’s Super Mario Bros. This infamously troubled production went through multiple directors and script issues and turned out to be a real mess, though it does have a cult following. The Mortal Kombat movie was a rare bright spot during the 1990s, where most game adaptations turned out awful....

The Roomba i7+ blazes a trail of cleanliness wherever it goes, learning the layout of your home and automatically creating smart maps. This means that it will clean without bumping into things. It also works with Google Home and Alexa, so you can combine it with an enabled device for voice control instead of using the iRobot Home app. With the price now $763 instead of $1,000, you can afford to never vacuum again – and almost never empty out your vacuum bag either....

The TypeScript team and Microsoft technical fellow and father of C# Anders Hejlsberg unwrapped the first preview of TypeScript in October 2012, describing it as a superset of JavaScript that brought static typing to the dynamically typed language. The goal was to catch errors faster and extend JavaScript from building web pages to larger applications running in the browser, devices and the cloud. As Daniel Rosenwasser, a senior program manager on the TypeScript team, noted recently: “When TypeScript first debuted, there was a lot of skepticism – and understandably so....

Charging/Synching iPhone 4, iPhone 5 and Nexus 4 simultaneously from one USB port We see a lot of cool stuff on 9to5Toys every day but one particular item seemed worth sharing today.

Tanga took about 2-3 days on delivery and it comes in a sealed plastic package similar to Apple’s own products....

The Monarchy became the talk of the town when Diana, Princess of Wales, sought to be a better public figure and embrace her people....

This week, the Minerva Labs cybersecurity team, working with MalwareHunterTeam, said that Purple Fox is being disguised through a file named “Telegram Desktop.exe.” Those that believe they are installing the popular messaging service are, instead, becoming laden with the malware – and the infection process has made it more difficult to detect. First discovered in 2018, Purple Fox has been spread through a variety of means, including phishing emails, malicious links, and exploit kits....

When we would like to use this networking mode on a host system that has Internet access on the eth0 interface, we first need to create the tap0 interface. Then we need to create the bridge br0 and add tap0 and eth0 to the bridge. After that the bridge br0 and the eth0 interface should get an IP address from the network DHCP server; this happens through the eth0 interface, which is the only interface physically connected to the network switch/router....

Produced by horror film veteran Blumhouse Productions, The Invisible Man uses its science fiction premise to explore the lasting psychological effects of an abusive relationship. Cecilia Kass (Elisabeth Moss) makes an escape from a controlling relationship with her scientist husband Adrian Griffin (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) that seems permanent when he is found to have committed suicide....
