      Mass email hoax causes closures across the US and Canada

      Emails threaten explosions unless people pay $20,000 in Bitcoin.

      The emails warn that explosives have been planted in the recipient’s premises and that they will detonate by the end of the day unless the target pays $20,000 in bitcoin. By late Thursday afternoon, Sammy, the email security researcher who sent one of the tweets above, told Ars she and other researchers estimated more than 100,000 such emails had been received. A large percentage of the emails, she said, used unique wallet addresses and variations on the sender’s name as well as the type of explosive materials.

                Oh, asking you directly. Yes, but not on ML. But we were looking for internet at the time, we hadn't come up with using an external service, yet.

                    Apple says iOS update will avoid Qualcomm patents, China iPhone ban

                    Apple is appealing Qualcomm's China-wide ban on older iPhone models.

                    Apple's patent battle with Qualcomm in China has intensified this week, with Qualcomm seeking a broader ban and Apple claiming it has a workaround to avoid Qualcomm's patents.

                      Does anyone know what the actual claimed infringement is?

                                  That'll probably be the death knell for Kafka. It'll encourage Amazon to fork it rather than sustain it.

                                    ALthough it looks like Kafka remains under the solid Apache license. Only ADD ONs are getting a weird license.

                                        Huawei Watch GT review: When hardware and software don’t mesh

                                        Huawei's wearable OS could be great, but it doesn't fit this $230 smartwatch.

                                        So what do the Huawei Watch GT and LiteOS have to offer? Essentially, the device is a simplified smartwatch that has all the hardware bells and whistles you'd expect from a a high-end Wear OS device or an Apple Watch—things like an AMOLED display, a continuous heart-rate monitor, an embedded GPS, and more. But in practice, its feature set and its real-world abilities don't exactly match its relatively high, $230 price tag.

                                          Microsoft Still Can't Fix Broken Surface Update

                                          Microsoft is reportedly replacing more Surface Pro 4 units suffering from a display issue caused by a mid-2018 firmware update.

                                          The issue was first reported in July 2018 when the Surface Pro 4 received a firmware update supposed to bring a series of improvements. What this update did, however, was cause display issues like unresponsive touch, with lots of users confirming in a discussion thread on the Microsoft Community forums that no workaround repaired it.

                                            Samsung Galaxy S10 Will Be Able To Charge Other Phones

                                            Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S10 is likely to come with a reverse wireless charging feature that would technically enable the phone to charge other devices too.

                                            Powershare would basically make it possible for the S10 to wireless charge other devices just like a typical Qi wireless charger. Similar capabilities already exist on the Huawei Mate 20 Pro, and Samsung is expected to embrace the idea as well, especially as it’s trying to differentiate its products from Apple’s
