It sucks, but ever since 2014 our Google Mail messages have been scanned by Google. Scanning a mail does not mean that someone actually read it, of course, but it does mean that someone got the general gist of what you are usually writing about. Internet security is, as of late, one of the hottest topics world-wide, which may have prompted Google to stop ...

Phone with the model number A11 has just passed telecommunications regulator; its FCC identification number is 2ALBB-A11. That, unfortunately, is all that we know, as the documentation does not give away one bit of phone's specification. This, then, may be a good occasion to recollect what we know about the device. Essential Phone is a startup project ...

Most of the time we heard that Orea will be the next Android's name. Wrong! According to this leak, Android O will in fact be called Oatmeal Cookie. There are at least two bits of evidence for that. First is a phrase ”oc-dev” that repeats through the phone's system code multiple times; second is a picture taken from the Google I/O presentation, ...

While ago I wrote about an old phenomenon that is prison contraband and a new way of committing it, namely by drones. Lets say there is a convict who wants some XXX material to read, a cellphone for calling his dearest grandmother and a few grams of cocaine to make his stay in prison a bit more tolerable. Using his contacts, he (or she - lets be fair) ...

This Chinese phone case has a cool little effect to it - it changes its colour when affected by high temperature. Normally, the case is red, but when touched by something of around 35 Celcius degrees it temporarily changes to yellow. The above picture, well, pictures this very well - holding the phone in your hand leaves cool, yellow marks on the case, ...

Since, you know, it is more popular than ever and also because it has been made into a number of games recently (earlier in the days too, but that's ancient history). Yeah. Anyway, South Park has been made into a successful RPG, with sequel coming up, and now the hilarious TV show is making ...

It all started with ”thumbs up”, also known as a like. This cyber-gesture has been available on Facebook almost from the get go (not really, but it is a good, simplifying lie), doing its part in making FB the most popular social website in the world. Recently, after years of waiting, Facebook has granted us more reaction emoticons. Now we can love ...

Russia invokes a number of connotations. Winter, vodka, communism, Red Army, caviar, In Soviet Russia, Rush B, Ukraine. Some of these connotations are funny, others not at all. This time, though, it is time to bring up something hilarious and/or disgusting that came up in the land of bears on unicycles. ”Comrade, we have done it! Another step ...
