Citizens of the state of Ohio, get ready to get tech-y! John Kasich, Governor of Ohio, has just signed a new budget.

Summer! Time to get out and grab some tan (or to get sweaty and angry in public communication. Eff my life). Heat can be detrimental to a human body, we all realize that, but do we all also know that high (and low) temperatures are bad for electronics? Our wee little smartphones are relatively delicate tools and extreme temperatures can easily harm ...

Well, okay, not today, but soon! Have you ever seen ”Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”? Eponymous factory was a massive complex that spanned many kilometers. Factory's system of fast travel was the Wonkavators, special elevators that could move not only up and down but also in every other direction. That is the kind of device that the German ...

Of course, a large number of these accounts are either fakes or no longer used (because, for example, their owner died), buuuut ”FB has two billion users, but some of them are fake, gone or dead” would not make a good title. Anyway, real or not, Facebook does not plan on letting such a milestone pass without acknowledging it. Social website ...

Yesterday afternoon I had a (dis)pleasure of informing you about Petya, a new and dangerous virus. In summary, Petya is ransomware. Ransomware is a virus that blocks access to your device and only unlocks it after you pay a given sum of money to the hackers who created it, like a ransom.

Watch out! Unknown group of hackers (it is speculated that the group is based in Russia) has created an effective and difficult to beat computer virus that quickly spreads over Europe. Originally only a number of Russian and Ukrainian companies and facilities, like Russian Rosneft and Boryspil airfield in Ukraine were targeted, but the virus has soon ...

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, ...
