Do you love almost everything about your AirPods? We’re betting you do, but we’re also betting that one of the things you don’t love about them is the fact that they never stay secure in your ears. They don’t fall out or anything, but they move around just enough so that all the bass from your music leaks out. Want to stop that from happening? You’ll need silicone covers, but they’re even more annoying because you can’t fit your AirPods in the charging case without taking the covers off… unless, of course, you pick up a set of DamonLight Ultra-Slim Silicone AirPods Covers on Amazon!

Astronauts are swapping out ISS batteries like it’s an old pickup truck

$%name Astronauts are swapping out ISS batteries like it’s an old pickup truck by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

The International Space Station is a high-tech laboratory and high-flying living space. It’s an incredible structure that has been keeping astronauts safe and helping them carry out scientific objectives for nearly two decades now. But, like any decades-old piece of machinery, the old girl needs a bit of maintenance every now and again, and that’s why astronauts spent their Sunday hauling around some supersized batteries.

Just like a mechanic dropping a shiny new battery into the guts of a 1998 Dodge Ram, astronauts Christina Koch and Andrew Morgan yanked three aging batteries from the exterior of the space station and installed two brand new ones.

See how Google Photos’ nifty new feature adds color to black-and-white images

$%name See how Google Photos’ nifty new feature adds color to black and white images by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Google first got us excited for the nifty new Google Photos feature called “Colorize” back in 2018, when the company teased it at I/O 2018 and showed us how it can take a black and white image you’ve captured and render it in color. That’s no mean feat, because the AI that underpins this feature goes on to imbue the image with the correct color choices in the correct way — trees, for example, show up looking natural and not shaded with, say, a purple hue.

Per a Google executive, the feature relies on TensorFlow’s machine learning capabilities to recognize the appropriate colors that need to be added to specific areas of black-and-white images. And now, thanks to an early version of the feature in action, when can get another look at how well this works.

NASA’s Curiosity rover paints ancient Mars as a water-rich paradise

$%name NASA’s Curiosity rover paints ancient Mars as a water rich paradise by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

NASA’s Curiosity rover is currently cruising around an area of Mars known as the Gale Crater. It’s a massive impact site that has existed for billions of years, and the version of it we see today hints at a much wetter time on Mars, when water flowed freely into the crater to form rivers and lakes.

Researchers are using observations from Curiosity to paint a picture of Mars as a watery world, and there’s no shortage of evidence to support it. As NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory highlights, a new paper published in Nature Geoscience uses the layers of sediment that make up the towering structure within the crater, known as Mount Sharp, to estimate when the climate of the Red Planet changed.

With the official OnePlus 7T announcement behind us, the only phone left for OnePlus to announce in 2019 is the Pro model of the updated flagship. And wouldn’t you know it – just weeks before the unveiling was expected to take place, what appear to be official renders of the OnePlus 7T Pro have leaked on Twitter.

Ishan Agarwal — the source of several high-profile leaks in recent months — shared renders of what he claims is the OnePlus 7T Pro on Twitter over the weekend, confirming that the more expensive model will indeed feature the same design that we saw on OnePlus 7 Pro earlier this year. In other words, the circular camera array that OnePlus added to the 7T will not be making its way to the Pro, though there is at least one notable change.

The iPhone 6s and 6s Plus are basically ancient in iPhone years, having launched all the way back in 2015. But the phones still run the latest version of iOS, and are quite dependable — I sure do miss mine. However, some units have been experiencing power issues, even refusing to turn on.

Apple has acknowledged the problem, and quietly launched a new repair program to address the matter.
