ISS astronauts played baseball in space to celebrate the World Series

%name ISS astronauts played baseball in space to celebrate the World Series by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Astronauts who travel to the International Space Station have many responsibilities. They spend their days conducting various experiments, coordinating research efforts with scientists back on Earth, and performing maintenance on the space station itself. It’s a big job, but in their downtime, they like to enjoy the same things we do here on Earth, including America’s pastime.

In a fun little crossover between NASA, Major League Baseball, and Fox Sports, astronauts aboard the ISS took some time out of their busy schedules to play a bit of baseball. Of course, with gravity lacking and considering the cramped confines of the space station, the game had to be modified a bit, but it’s still recognizable.

Samsung reveals its first premium laptops with QLED displays

%name Samsung reveals its first premium laptops with QLED displays by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Most of the news we’ve covered out of Samsung for the past several weeks has been focused on its smartphone business, but the company has just unveiled a pair of new products which aren’t phones and are set to be released next year that should make creators and anyone interested in productivity very happy.

Samsung’s new Galaxy Book Flex and Galaxy Book Ion are new premium laptops that feature the first QLED displays Samsung has used on a laptop, with screens that not only offer brighter, more vivid, true-to-life viewing, but a special Outdoor Mode. That mode is enabled by a maximum 600-nit display capability, so you should be able to see everything on the screen and continue working just fine even in bright sunlight.

Lyft Pink membership offers 15% off all rides for $20 per month

%name Lyft Pink membership offers 15% off all rides for $20 per month by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Lyft’s first effort at a subscription plan was compelling but, if we’re being honest, a bit on the pricey side. Originally introduced as Lyft All Access, the program offered users the option to pay $299 upfront in exchange for 30 free rides. It was certainly a solid deal on a per-ride basis, but the $299 price point likely deterred many users from trying it out. And so, just one year later, Lyft is adding a somewhat simpler alternative it’s calling Lyft Pink.

With Lyft Pink, Lyft riders can pay an upfront fee of $19.99 and receive 15% off on all car rides. Subscribers can also take advantage of three complimentary rides on bikes or scooters operated by Lyft. What’s more, all Pink subscribers can also enjoy priority airport pickups, relaxed cancellation fees, and a number of other perks that Lyft will presumably announce sooner rather than later.

HBO just cancelled its ‘Game of Thrones’ prequel starring Naomi Watts

%name HBO just cancelled its ‘Game of Thrones’ prequel starring Naomi Watts by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Game of Thrones fans are having a rough week, headlined by a cringeworthy public appearance by showrunners D.B. Weiss and David Benioff. They’ve shied away from the spotlight since their massively successful show ended with a miserable final season a few months ago, but they decided to show up to the Austin Film Festival and pretty much confirm to everyone that they had no idea what they were doing and couldn’t believe HBO took a chance on them. Read our report from Monday covering their remarks at the festival if you don’t believe me.

And now, another bit of depressing news for Game of Thrones fans — HBO has just unceremoniously stuck a shard of dragonglass through the heart of the super-secretive prequel starring Naomi Watts.

The PS5 is still a year away, but Sony has already trademarked the PS10

%name The PS5 is still a year away, but Sony has already trademarked the PS10 by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

It could be decades before the PS10 launches, but Sony has just secured trademarks for the next five generations of PlayStation consoles, starting with the PS6 and going all the way through PS10.

Tech companies often trademark upcoming products ahead of time, but Sony has taken a giant leap here, considering new generations only come along once every seven years or so. The PS4 launched in late 2013, no less than seven years before the PS5’s launch. Sony did update the PS4 hardware with a Pro version, but it’s the PlayStation 5 that will deliver the kind of design refresh and performance jump worthy of a new name.

The biggest issue with traveling is the exorbitant price of airfare. It’s no fun spending most of your vacation budget on just getting there, and there are still lots of other cost variables to think about when buying flights, from baggage fees to priority boarding and lots more. It definitely makes finding a solid flight deal take a bit of the sting out of having to spend a lot for a great vacation — and it just so happens that boutique New York-based airline JetBlue is promoting a slew of incredible flight deals today.
