Decryption key for Petya selling for $250k, probably a scam
An udentified hacker/s have put the word online; he/she/they have a decryption key that can save any computer attacked by Petya (or NotPetya. Semantics) and they will give it away – of course, not for free. Hacker’s price is a pretty steep 100 bitcoins, which translates into a significant sum of 250 thousand dollars. Such key probably belongs to the virus’ creators – proof of which may be fact that around ten thousand bitcoins have been moved out of the account associated with Petya (why such account has not been blocked days ago is beyond me). Reportedly, at least ...

Sony Xperia G8441 – new Xperia phone on AnTuTu benchmark
And it looks good. These are the specification of this earlier unannounced Xperia smartphone:– 1280 x 720 screen resolution (okay, that isn’t all that great),– Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 CPU (neat),– Adreno 540 GPU,– 8mpx front and rear cameras,– 4GB RAM, 32GB ROM,– Android 8.0 (woo!).It seems to be a mixed, if overall cool, bag. Low max screen and camera resolution does not make me feel optimistic, but sharp CPU, large memory and newest Android OS do. According to some, small screen size is caused by the fact that (reportedly) the device is actually a ...
Ohio goes high-tech, or how the state’s new budget allows delivery robots on sidewalks
Citizens of the state of Ohio, get ready to get tech-y! John Kasich, Governor of Ohio, has just signed a new budget. This budget contains a provision that allows delivery robots to travel sidewalks, as well as crossroads, throughout the state. Putting it simply, delivery robots can now move freely across the state. Ohio is the fifth American state to permit it, the first four being Idaho, Florida, Wisconsin and Virginia. The statute was promoted by Starship Technologies, a UK-based startup robot manufacturer. In other words, it was mainly because of them that the provision has passed. ...

Samsung is the most trusted brand in Asia – sixth year in a row
Market research company Nielsen has conducted a survey under the title of ”Asia’s top 1,000 brands 2017”. Its conclusion is somewhat surprising – despite all the exploding batteries and factories catching fire (okay, it was just one factory), Asians seem to still put more trust in Samsung than into any other company. It is especially surprising when one considers that the survey was not limited to Asian companies and firms such as Nokia or Apple were also included – competition was large and strong.Survey was conducted online and included over six thousand ...
Galaxy J5 Pro, a new mid-ranger by Samsung, officially announced
Announced in Thailand earlier today (global release is most probable), Galaxy J5 Pro is basically a slightly updated version of Galaxy J5 (2017). So, it is an update of an update. Hm. Anyway, the only difference between the two is their memory capacity; J5 (2017) had 2GB RAM and 16GB storage, while J5 Pro has 3GB RAM and 32GB storage. Is more memory worth the phone’s price, which is roughly 294 American dollars? You be the judge.Specification:– 5.2′, 720p Super AMOLED display,– 3GB RAM, 32GB internal storage,– Exynos 7870 CPU, 8-core, 64 bit,– 13mpx front ...
