Today is good news for everyone who ever happened to send a regretful Messenger text.

This feature, called Unsend, is already available for some users, but only as a test run.Phew. Finally I will be able to relax when I accidentally send messages to my boss instead of my ...

Google can be considered a good company or not so much, but today I will give them a little praise. Google has just released – just on the newest Pixel smartphones so far – a so-called Call Screen assistant. What does it do? Well, Call Screen is basically an antispam filter for your telephone; it starts up whenever an unknown number calls, asking the user whether or not they want to answer the call. If not, CS’s answers it itself, upon which it informs the caller that they are talking to an assistant. If the caller is not discouraged by talking to the machine, CS will show ...

Google Chromecast is supposed to be officially unveiled today during a New York event, but that would not stop some crafty Brits from offering these devices for sale even before that. Very, a British online store specialized in furniture, clothing and electronics, is already selling Google’s device for £29.99. Very’s listing does not reveal any of Chromecast’s specifications, though, so if you buy it, expect to be going in dark. Tweet Vote on HN ...

Analysts from the British Strategy Analytics Inc. believe that in the next few years we will see a major outflow of console users, who will instead content themselves with playing on their smartphones. The analysts’ belief is that we tend to abandon unwieldy and cumbersome items for the more complex and compact. Makes sense: walkmen were abandoned in favour of MP3’s, which in turn were dropped when smartphones emerged. Development of fast Internet connection will also help smartphone gaming. The upcoming 5G standard will make game streaming common and make the consoles with ...

It is no news that Apple does not like us using 3rd party services to fix our devices. The company has previously denied us the possibility of fixing screens and fingerprint scanners by unauthorized firms. Now Americans go one step ahead and take away our ability to fix many elements of the MacBook 2018 and MacBook Pro devices. Blockade pertains to the hard drive, keyboard, battery, loudspeakers, trackpad, display and Touch ID. After every time we change one of these elements, these two devices will run a diagnostic program; if the program discovers that one of parts is not an original ...

Windows is the latest large company to follow the last two years’ trend of ”cartooning” gun emojis, trend which begun with the sudden rise of violent shootings in the US. After changing its revolver emoji into a more child-friendly version last year, Windows took another step in making sure that poor children will not see guns on their electronic devices and changes the revolver into the water pistol. Now all the largest tech giants out there – Windows, Apple, Samsung, Twitter, Google and Facebook – have exchanged their gun emojis for water gun ones. Cool, I ...

A letter each have been sent to the admiral, secretary of defense and the president of the United States of America. Each one of them was laced with castor oil, a strong and easy to make poison. We do not know the sender of the letters, nor do we know his, her or their motivations. It is not the first time when someone tried to kill the president of the United States with a letter; even Barack Obama received such mail. All the earlier attempts at this method of killing was unsuccessful, foiled by the special team of men selected to carefully examine every letter coming to either the White ...
