Leaked render of iPhone XI
The leak originates from the invaluable @OnLeaks, with Ice Universe confirming its authenticity. The smartphone’s design is somewhat controversial, to put it lightly, among the fans online, as a great number of people seemingly dislike the triple camera module. I have to admit that it does not look great; functionality is important, yes, but smartphones nowadays, especially those made by companies such as Apple, also need to be pleasing to look at. Apple is reportedly already working on a new Smart Battery Case made specifically with iPhone XI and its ”protrusion” in ...

Drug dealers will not go to prison because they write their texts with proper grammar
And people wonder why I take care when typing… Two young criminals from the US, Luke Rance (19) and Brandon Kerrison (21), have been caught by the police when attempting to sell their product. Interestingly, their selling spot was located next to the public library – look what all those books do to people. When searching through Rance’s living place, police have found 1.5 thousand dollars worth of drugs. That is a relatively small amount, but U.S law is hard on drug dealers, so normally the two would receive a considerable sentence nevertheless. Normally.Judge David Hale, ...
Facebook-fortuneteller, or how FB patents tech that allows them to know what you will do in the future
Zuckerberg’s company has just filed a patent for a tech that might allow them to correctly foretell our future actions. The goal of this rather dark-sounding technology is to be able to give us more personalized ads (want to buy a book? Maybe this one. Want to go out? Maybe there), but it is difficult to not think of any other, less benevolent ways it can be used in; it would certainly make us even more dependable on computers, and since computer tech is controlled by corporations like Facebook, more dependable on those corporations.Facebook has released a statement according to which ...
Apple iPhones 7 and 8 unavailable in Germany

Recently, German courts have ruled in favour of the plaintiff: it was court’s decision that Apple remove the aforementioned smartphones from its German stores. For now, iPhone 7 and 8 can still be bought at Apple’s partner stores, but this may soon change as well. iPhones X and newer can still be bought in Germany, as they are not using Qualcomm’s patented technology.Apple can still make an ...
