The IRS knows millions of Americans right now are asking ‘Where’s my stimulus payment?” referring to the $1,200 and $2,400 coronavirus stimulus checks being issued directly to Americans from the tax agency.
The payments are a consequence of the coronavirus pandemic and meant to help alleviate some of the economic suffering stemming from it.
Here’s a schedule for when some of the next stimulus checks from the IRS will arrive.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

The IRS is reminding people who depend on Supplemental Security Income — a benefits program meant to help meet basic needs for the blind, disabled, and the elderly — that they need to act by Tuesday (May 5) if they didn’t file a tax return in 2018 or 2019 in order to receive their portion of the IRS’ stimulus check disbursements.

The tax agency says those payments will be issued soon and arrive around the middle of this month for those recipients. If recipients have eligible dependants and they didn’t file a tax return for the last two years, they’ll need to act fast in order to get the $500 per eligible child payment tacked on to their $1,200 or $2,400 stimulus check. All those recipients need to do is quickly utilize the special Non-Filers tool at IRS.gov by Tuesday, May 5, which is available in English and Spanish, in order for their benefits to arrive at the same time in the form of a single check.

Coronavirus might be able to survive in water

Posted on May 4, 2020May 4, 2020 by Authcom

$%name Coronavirus might be able to survive in water by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Research has shown that coronavirus can survive in water for an extended period of time, but that doesn’t mean it poses a threat to the average person.
No traces of the novel coronavirus have been found in water supplies in the United States, according to the EPA.
Sewage treatment workers may be at heightened risk, but the measures they already use to protect themselves from viruses and bacteria should stop this virus as well.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

We all know by now that the primary route of transmission of the novel coronavirus is through the air. Droplets that an infected person exhales, coughs, or sneezes out can carry the virus. A healthy person who breathes those droplets in, or touches a contaminated surface and then rubs their eyes, nose, or mouth can easily become infected. But what happens when the virus enters the water?

Reliable studies on the new coronavirus and its interaction with water are scarce (well, non-existent might be a better term), but as Forbes points out, there are a few things we know about how similar viruses deal with water, and research into coronavirus concentrations in sewage give us a rough idea of how dangerous this route of transmission truly is.

$%name If you like Ikea, you’ll really love this wireless Hi Fi speaker by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

The Högtalare Dynamic Wireless Hi-Fi Speaker is unlike any other speaker you’ve come across, combining ultra-high-quality components with a brilliantly unique design.
It sounds incredible and works perfectly no matter where you put it, but anyone with a Kallax bookshelf from Ikea gets an added bonus.
Högtalare speakers are designed to fit perfectly into the square shelves of Ikea’s wildly popular bookshelf, offering a very cool twist that is sure to start some conversations.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Do you have a Kallax bookshelf from Ikea in your home somewhere? If you’re unfamiliar with the name, it’s the bookshelf everyone pictures in their minds when they think of an Ikea bookshelf. The awesome, chunky design is instantly recognizable, as are the square shelves. You probably have some in your house — I feel like every home does — and if so, there’s a very cool news speaker that you definitely need to check out.

Those iconic square shelves seem to display books and home decor items perfectly, but there’s something else they can display perfectly: the Högtalare Dynamic Wireless Hi-Fi Speaker. This high-end wireless speaker was designed to fit in the exact space available on a single shelf, and it looks fantastic as you can see in the image at the top of this post.

The look and design are great, but what about the sound? We were sent a Högtalare speaker to test and we confirm that it doesn’t disappoint. Dual 1-inch dome tweeters are paired with a 6-inch subwoofer for full sound that is clear and rich. Bass is powerful but not overbearing, and highs are crisp but not too sharp. Expect a listening experience that is on par with a similarly-priced Sonos speaker. Praise doesn’t get much higher than that.

Morel’s Högtalare Dynamic Wireless Hi-Fi Speaker is available right now at Amazon in three different colors, and it’s going to blow you away.

Högtalare – The Most Dynamic Wireless HiFi Speaker, Great Hi-Fi Sound, IKEA Compatible (Blue B…: $349.00

Here are some more highlights from the product page on Amazon:

Dynamic Sound, Minimalist Design & Extremely Affordable: The world’s most dynamic BT Hi-Fi speaker! We engineered the cabinet to perfectly complement its powerful 6” woofer and two high-resolution tweeters to deliver sound effortlessly, so music is dynamic and lifelike with rich, natural bass.
An Emotionally Powerful Listening Experience: Enjoy the detailed highs, crystal clear mids, and robust bass. Hogtalare offers an emotionally powerful listening experience that is deep and very articulate. The lifelike, high resolution, dynamic sound quality will make you forget you are listening to loudspeakers.
Uncompromising Dynamic Hi-Fi Audio: For maximum resolution, Högtalare is equipped with two 1” soft dome tweeters, selected for their smooth and detailed sound. Each tweeter plays one channel (left or right), creating a true stereo experience with a wide and full soundstage.

The scariest coronavirus symptom might be more serious than we thought

Posted on May 4, 2020May 4, 2020 by Authcom

$%name The scariest coronavirus symptom might be more serious than we thought by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Blood clotting is among the more severe symptoms of the novel coronavirus disease, as several reports and studies have said in the past few weeks.
A report from Italy says that doctors who performed autopsies on COVID-19 victims noticed a serious blood disorder that might cause respiratory side effects, including pneumonia.
Other doctors treating COVID-19 patients have noticed an increased risk of blood clotting that could lead to stroke or a heart attack.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Several reports have revealed in the past few weeks a few strange symptoms of the novel coronavirus. Doctors in various countries noticed that some of the people admitted to hospitals on suspicion of a heart attack were actually infected with the virus. Others found that the patients who seemed to feature symptomatology pointing to neurological problems were also found to be COVID-19 positive. We then learned that an increasing number of young adults came to the emergency room with signs of a stroke, and it turned out these vascular incidents were all caused by blood clotting due to the virus. Separately, researchers who studied clotting in COVID-19 patients found a new vascular disorder caused by the virus, which they called pulmonary intravascular coagulopathy (PIC). They reasoned that PIC is “primarily focussed within the lungs” and “undoubtedly contributes to the high levels of mortality being seen in patients with COVID-19.”

It turns out that blood clotting due to the novel coronavirus might be a lot more severe than we thought, and some doctors in Italy believe that the hematological symptoms are what cause pulmonary complications.

Amazon’s big Bose sale has a huge surprise

Posted on May 4, 2020May 4, 2020 by Authcom

$%name Amazon’s big Bose sale has a huge surprise by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Right now everyone is flooding Amazon to buy these best-selling face masks in an effort to help protect themselves from coronavirus — combined with other measures like social distancing and good hygiene, those masks do a great job.
That said, Amazon is finally beginning to refocus on other popular deals like a $50 discount on Bose QuietComfort 35 II ANC Headphones and a sale that matches Amazon’s all-time low price on the first and only Bose true wireless earbuds.
There’s also one Bose deal that comes as a huge surprise: The top-of-the-line Bose 700 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones that have only gone on sale a handful of times in the past are available right now at Amazon’s best price ever.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Unless you know where to look, it’s harder than ever to find good deals right now on Amazon because the retailer’s top deals page is now hidden. Things are finally starting to rebalance following Amazon’s recent move to devote a huge chunk of resources to delivering medical supplies for hospitals and government customers. That means lead times for many nonessential order deliveries are finally starting to come back down to a week or two instead of a month or even longer.

If you’re looking for great deals on popular products that are available to ship out soon, we’ve got a bunch of good news for you today. Amazon’s best-selling face masks are back in stock, for example, and Apple’s AirPods and AirPods Pro are discounted and ready to ship. But there’s another big sale right now on Amazon that you need to check out, and it covers some of the hottest personal audio products ever made.

Amazon is offering a bunch of great deals on popular Bose speakers and wireless headphones, and we dug through them all to pick out the five best bargains. Some of them are familiar deals that have returned somewhat unexpectedly considering Amazon’s current shift in focus away from nonessential products. Other deals are a bit more surprising, however, such as a deal no one saw coming that offers an extremely rare discount on the hot new Bose 700 Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones.

Bose Noise Cancelling Wireless Bluetooth Headphones 700, with Alexa Voice Control, Black: $349.00

Those are Bose’s latest and greatest ANC headphones and they’re by far the best model that Bose has ever made. That said, they’re still a bit pricey even with a discount that matches the all-time low, so there are two other Bose headphones deals you should definitely consider. The wildly popular Bose QuietComfort 35 II Wireless Noise Cancelling Bluetooth Headphones get a $50 discount to $299, and Bose’s first and only true wireless earbuds, the Bose SoundSport Free, get an even bigger discount to an all-time low of $139.

Bose SoundSport Free, True Wireless Earbuds, (Sweatproof Bluetooth Headphones for Workouts and…: $139.00

If you’re looking for speakers instead, there are two Amazon deals in particular that you’ll likely be interested in. The Bose Solo 5 TV Soundbar Sound System everyone loves so much is down to $199 from $250, and the Bose Home Speaker 500 with killer sound quality and hands-free Alexa voice control gets a big $100 discount to $299.

Surprise sale drops AirPods Pro and AirPods 2 with wireless charging to lowest prices ever

$%name Surprise sale drops AirPods Pro and AirPods 2 with wireless charging to lowest prices ever by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Whatever you do, don’t buy AirPods 2 right now… because AirPods 2 with Wireless Charging Case just dropped to a new all-time low price on Amazon that’s $10 less than what Apple charges for the base model.
On top of that, Amazon is also still offering AirPods Pro cord-free earbuds with active noise cancelling for the lowest price ever, matching the retailer’s sale price from Black Friday last year.
These deals both first appeared earlier this week on Amazon’s site, and there’s a good chance they’ll be gone after today or by the end of the weekend.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

When Amazon first announced that it was shifting its focus away from most products so that it could focus the majority of its efforts on stocking and shipping medical supplies to hospitals, many people panicked. While it’s clear that there were definitely big delays on some items and many more still won’t ship until sometime next month, many of the more “essential” nonessentials have been shipping out fast this entire time.

Among the most notable exceptions to Amazon’s new rule are Apple’s various AirPods models, which have been best-sellers on Amazon for many months now. What’s even crazier than the fact that these nonessential headphones aren’t seeing any serious shipping delays is the pricing — AirPods 2 and AirPods Pro have been on sale at all-time low prices several times over the past few weeks. Now, Amazon is taking things to the next level.

Most of our readers who are interested in AirPods 2 as opposed to AirPods Pro opt for the entry-level version with the normal charging case. Needless to say, the explanation is pretty simple: they’re cheaper. AirPods 2 retail for $159 while the upgraded model with wireless charging sells for $199. On Amazon with their normal discounts, the base model drops to $139 and the upgraded version usually sells for $169, which is still a pretty wide gap. Right now, however, AirPods 2 with Wireless Charging Case are down to a new all-time low that’s $10 lower than the price we saw last year during Black Friday. Hurry and you can get a pair for just $149.98!

Apple AirPods with Wireless Charging Case: $149.98

Where AirPods Pro are concerned, Apple’s first cord-free Bluetooth earphones with active noise cancellation are still on sale right now at last year’s all-time low price from Black Friday and Cyber Week. That means instead of paying $250 like you would from Apple or most of its retail partners, you can head over to Amazon right now and pick up a pair for $234.98.

Apple AirPods Pro: $234.95

Indonesian coronavirus quarantine violators are being locked in haunted houses

$%name Indonesian coronavirus quarantine violators are being locked in haunted houses by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Indonesian officials are using abandoned buildings as makeshift quarantine centers for people who refuse to follow lockdown guidelines.
Some of the buildings are believed to be haunted, serving as additional motivation for citizens to follow the rules.
No actual ghost sightings have been reported thus far.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Social distancing and quarantine measures are the strategies that we know are already working to help curb the spread of the novel coronavirus and flatten the infection curve. They’re not fun, but they work, and it’s our responsibility to follow these measures for our own health as well as the health of the general public. If you break these rules in Indonesia, you might find yourself locked in what locals are calling a haunted house.

It’s one heck of an interesting strategy: Indonesian politicians are hoping to scare some of the more stubborn citizens by repurposing old, abandoned buildings into quarantine lockdown facilities. The idea is that if you don’t want to end up in a run-down, possibly haunted house, you’ll follow the quarantine orders and remain comfortable in your own, not-haunted home.
