According to the Standing General Order issued on Tuesday, this applies to all vehicles equipped with a Level 2 advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) or with a Level 3 to 5 automated driving system (ADS), in case the systems are engaged during or right before the accident. All car companies operating such vehicles on the US public roads must report electronically through a form any crash that also involves:...
When the iPhone 13 was released, repair specialists and enthusiasts quickly realized that changing the display would stop Face ID — you know, the phone’s most important security feature — from working completely. In order to maintain Face ID functionality, repair shops would have to remove a tiny chip over from the original screen, significantly complicating what is likely the most common repair; iFixit goes into more detail on the topic here....
In the EU, the rapid growth has fuelled fears about the impact of these investments on jobs, technology, and Europe’s long-term industrial capacity, sparking calls for more oversight. In this context, some see the investment screening mechanism the EU put in place in 2019 as targeted at Chinese companies. During the pandemic, growing concerns that vital European technology and know-how could be vulnerable to foreign takeover because of the economic downturn led the European Commission to issue guidelines for its member states....
In the firm’s own words, the “trough of disillusionment” means that “interest [in the technology] wanes as experiments and implementations fail to deliver. Producers of the technology shake out or fail. Investments continue only if the surviving providers improve their products to the satisfaction of early adopters.” “Blockchain technologies have not yet lived up to the hype and most enterprise blockchain projects are stuck in experimentation mode,” said Avivah Litan, an analyst and research vice president at Gartner....
In a joint announcement made today, the two companies said they are deploying a technical solution to prevent the use of ‘Qaznet Trust Network’ root CA certificate in Chrome and Firefox. Apple is also said to be taking similar preventive measures to protect Safari users, per latest report from Reuters. The move comes after reports from July suggested the government had instructed internet service providers to require people in the country to download and install a state-issued certificate on all devices (and in every browser) in order to access the web....
The research in question was conducted by temporary workers for Randstad, a company under contract with Google. The objective was to get people with darker skin tones to agree to record videos of themselves, on the temps’ devices, so that their image and likeness could be sequenced for an AI training database. In return for signing away the rights to their own face and aiding the construction of a database that could be used by bad actors to develop surveillance and tracking systems – in this case, targeted at the black community – subjects received a five-dollar gift card from Starbucks....
If you have an Andriod 10 device or later, the theme should automatically activate if you’ve enabled your phone’s Dark theme, which you can do by going to your device’s ‘Settings,’ tapping on ‘Display,’ and then ‘Theme.’ Alternatively, you can enable or disable the feature for individual apps separately by opening said app, tapping on the menu button on the top left, selecting ‘Settings,’ and then ‘Choose theme.’ You’ll be able to manually set the app to light or dark, or simply follow you phone’s system theme....
First off, Google has expanded the scope of Advanced Protection Program (APP) to G Suite, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Cloud Identity customers. The central idea of APP is that it safeguards personal Google Accounts from a variety of targeted attacks by making using of a FIDO-compliant hardware security key like Google’s Titan Security Key or Yubico’s YubiKey. It limits third-party apps that aren’t approved and trusted, and enables scanning of incoming email for phishing attempts, viruses, and attachments for harmful content....
The idea is simple. Go to the Tone Transfer site from your Android phone or desktop (Windows or Mac), select “Add your own,” and record your 15-second hum or tune. You can use your voice, tap on your table, or play an actual instrument. Google’s machine learning algorithm will convert that tune into a digital signal, and then you can convert it into a tune with Flute, Saxophone, Violin, or Trumpet....
There’s a lot to go through, so I’m just going to list the key points: The Pixel 4’s radar-based Motion Sense now lets you play or pause songs with a tapping gesture above the phone. In the US the Pixel 4 was able to detect severe car crashes, and will check with you to see if you need emergency services – you will be able to request help with a voice command or a single tap....
The company also noted that Jade Raymond, who was heading up Google’s Stadia Games and Entertainment, has decided to leave the company to pursue other opportunities. Meanwhile, most of the SG&E team will “be moving on to other roles.” To be clear, Stadia is still sticking around, but we won’t be seeing any original titles “beyond any near-term” planned games; a report by Kotaku suggests the company is canceling “basically any games slated for release beyond a specific 2021 window....
Historical images captured by the cars have been assembled in a tool that shows how places have changed over time. The feature was previously only available on the desktop version of Google Maps, but is now available on smartphones. “Street View is all about capturing the world as it changes, and it’s also a powerful way to reminisce about the past,” said Ethan Russell, senior director of product management for Google Maps, in a blogpost....
According to the report, the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL are already going into mass production, while the 5G device is in test production. This could indicate the company plans to announce the devices simultaneously, but the 5G might not be available until a few weeks later. Apple decided to skip the 5G train this year, with rumors currently pointing to a 2020 launch. Beating Apple to the punch could give Google a leg-up in 5G technology, although it’s far from the first Android manufacturer to support the nascent technology....
Starting this week, the company will display “Knowledge Panels” with information sourced from the National Health Service (NHS) at the top of search results about conditions like back pain, chickenpox, the common cold, and so on. The Big G makes no mention of coronavirus in the announcement, but the timing probably isn’t a coincidence. [Read: Coronavirus domains 50% more likely to infect your system with malware] The panels are designed to help users understand more about the conditions, including common causes and treatment....
The NULS team confirmed the attack in a tweet posted this morning. In total, two million NULS ($480,000) were taken. Of that stash, the team reported that more than half a million tokens have been liquidated via cryptocurrency exchanges. That amount equates to roughly $131,600. The team plans to “hard fork” the blockchain in an attempt to permanently freeze the remaining NULS cryptocurrency. At pixel time, the price of NULS has been pretty much unaffected by the incident, which was reportedly the fault of a security vulnerability in the 2....
I still stand by that statement. And over the past year, the Xbox has been a beloved companion, a way of staying in touch with friends, and keeping me going through bleak months. But… there was something missing. For a long time I wasn’t sure what that was, but now I understand — it was Halo Infinite. At this point, we probably all know the rough narrative of the Series X: it’s a great console that didn’t have enough tailor-made games at launch....
The GO’s meant to be worn or stuck somewhere. Its back is magnetic so it’ll stick to metal surfaces, it also comes with a sticky mount, magnetic tether, magnetic tripod mount, and a charging case that holds about two and a half full charges.

The last investigation of this kind happened more than 50 years ago, as part of a US Air Force investigation called Project Blue Book, which examined reported sightings of unidentified flying objects (note the change in name). The current hearings are the result of a stipulation attached to a 2020 COVID-19 relief bill, which required US Intelligence agencies to produce a report on UAPs within 180 days. That report appeared in June last year....
Although you can probably read a lot quicker than you can listen, sometimes it’s just too much effort to stare at your phone screen to read a long-form article after a hard day at work staring at your computer screen. Maybe you catch yourself drifting off, your mind wanders to the weird corners of your brain, or you’re just bored of the sound of the voice in your head — and of course, you can’t read all the time....
Ooooo. Ahhhh. As usual with Android TV remotes, the physical interface is kept fairly sparse. There’s a directional pad, a volume rocker, the usual navigation buttons, as well as YouTube and Netflix presets. Of course, this being Google, there’s an Assistant button on tow as well. Notably, there’s a power button too; Chromecast modules are normally on indefinitely. The new image confirms the design we’d seen previously, a new dongle that can be easily hidden behind your TV rather than taking up space on your media console like some other streaming devices....
