OnePlus may not be able to hold a live, in-person event to debut its new phones due to the ongoing novel coronavirus pandemic, but the smartphone maker still has to show off those phones somehow. Therefore, we are still getting a live stream of the OnePlus 8 series launch event on Tuesday, April 14th at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET.

As the name of the event suggests, we’re going to be introduced to at least two phones today, and leaks suggest that they will be the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro. In addition to extensive leaks, OnePlus has also, once again, shared a number of details about the phone itself. For example, we know that the OnePlus 8 Pro will have a 6.78-inch, 120 Hz Fluid Display, wireless charging support, and a Snapdragon 865 processor.

$%name Couple slapped with $3,300 lockdown violation fine over old vacation photos by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

An Australian couple was hit with a massive fine for violating lockdown, but they never actually left their homes.
The couple posted vacation photos taken a year ago, and police mistakenly assumed the images were evidence of a violation.
The fine was lifted after a brief investigation.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

The novel coronavirus pandemic has changed all of our lives in different ways, but one new habit we should all be embracing is staying home unless we absolutely have to leave. In Australia, police are strictly enforcing that mandate and issuing fines to people who make unnecessary trips, hoping to slow the spread of the virus and keep everyone safe.

A couple in Victoria recently found out just how seriously local law enforcement takes these news rules after police arrived at their door with a pair of citations for photos posted to Facebook that show the pair hanging out at a nearby vacation spot. Fortunately for the couple, they never actually broke the rules.

Nintendo Switch update adds features we’ve wanted since launch

Posted on April 14, 2020April 14, 2020 by Authcom

$%name Nintendo Switch update adds features we’ve wanted since launch by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Nintendo released the 10.0.0 system update for the Switch on Monday, April 13th.
Nintendo Switch system update 10.0.0 adds several new features, including the ability to transfer games and data from the system memory to an SD card and the option to remap controller buttons.
You can manually update your Switch by going to System Settings > System > System Update.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

The bar could not have been lower for the Nintendo Switch when it launched in March 2017.

The disappointment of the Wii U was still fresh in the minds of fans, and the hope was that the company had learned from the mistakes of the previous generation. When we got our hands on the Switch for the first time, it was clear that Nintendo had righted the ship, but that’s not to say it was a perfect product. Despite launching more than three years after the PS4 and Xbox One, it lacked some of the most basic features of those consoles.

Over the years, Nintendo has slowly but surely brought its console up to speed, and on Monday, some of the features that Switch owners have been requesting since the console debuted were finally added.

$%name Stock up on Amazon’s 5 best selling protein bars by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Given that getting some types of food is going to be challenging in the coming weeks and months, it’s a good time to stock up on protein bars in order to ensure that you’re getting enough protein.
We regularly recommend Quest Hero bars because they’re the most delicious bars you’ll ever try, but they’re certainly not the only good options out there.
We dug through Amazon’s most popular options to find the five best-selling protein bars on Amazon’s entire site, and you should definitely order some now before shipping times start to slip.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Those of you who regularly follow BGR Deals know that there is one type of protein bar we recommend above all others. That’s right, we’re talking about Quest Hero bars, which are sweetened with allulose. It tastes exactly like sugar but the body doesn’t metabolize it, so you don’t get all the calories and other downsides associated with sugar. They’re amazing and there are two flavors in particular that we love: Quest Hero Chocolate Bars and Quest Hero Blueberry Cobbler Bars. Just thinking about them is making us hungry… that’s how delicious they are.

As good as they are, Hero bars actually aren’t among the best-selling protein bars on Amazon. Anyone who has ever tried one will be shocked to find that out, but perhaps it’s only because not enough people know about them. In any case, the novel coronavirus pandemic means we’re all cooped up in our homes for a long time to come, and we might not be getting as much nutrition as we should. Or, if you plan to work out at home — and you definitely should — you’re obviously not going to be able to grab a protein bar or a shake on your way out of the gym.

How to make DIY coronavirus face masks without even having to sew

Posted on April 14, 2020April 14, 2020 by Authcom

$%name How to make DIY coronavirus face masks without even having to sew by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Medical-grade face masks that block the transmission of viruses like the novel coronavirus are still extremely difficult to come by, and you probably shouldn’t buy one even if you can because healthcare professionals have a much greater need.
What you might not realize, however, is that it’s very easy to make your own mask out of a few simple supplies you can get right now from Amazon and things that are already lying around your house.
These masks are so simple to make that you don’t even need to sew, so just about anyone can make them with ease.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

We have probably said this about a hundred times by now, but we’re going to say it again: don’t buy medical-grade face masks. N95 respirator masks are in very short supply and if you do happen to find some available for purchase, you should leave them for healthcare professionals and first responders. They need these masks much more than you do.

If you happen to come across KN95 masks at a good price, sure, you can go ahead and buy those. They’re the Chinese version of N95 masks and while they’re believed to work just as well, they’re not certified for use by healthcare professionals so you’re not putting anyone at risk by buying them. That said, there’s actually a very simple way to can make masks yourself that are more than effective enough — IF YOU’RE SMART — and you can make dozens of them with a few simple supplies. We say “if you’re smart” because no, DIY masks obviously aren’t going to be as effective as N95 or KN95 masks. But if you practice good hygiene and use social distancing, these masks will do a great job of adding an extra layer of protection against aerosolized coronavirus.

We came across a great little video that shows how to make a DIY face mask that is much better than most basic masks you’ve seen plans for online. It’s not complicated at all, and you don’t even need to sew or use any hard-to-get supplies. Most of what you need to make these masks is probably already lying around your house, and the only supplies you won’t already have just came back in stock at Amazon. First, you’ll need a MERV 13 Pleated Air Filter. If the one linked here is sold out, use this search and get any well-reviewed air filer with a MERV 13 rating (nothing lower). You also need some Carbon Pad Charcoal Sheets for Air Filters.

Aerostar Home Max 12x24x1 MERV 13 Pleated Air Filter Made in the USA, Captures Virus Particles,…: $46.99 ($7.83 / Each Set)

Breathe Naturally Universal 16×48 Cut-to-Fit Activated Carbon Filter (1 Pack) Charcoal Air Filt…: $14.99

Here’s the full list of supplies and materials you’ll need:

Old T-shirt or leggings
MERV 13 Filter (to filter small particles)
Activated Carbon Sheet (to filter small particles and reduce odor)
Maxi Pad or Sterile Gauze Pad (to wick moisture away from your mouth)
Vinegar (to help kill bacteria and viruses)
Glue Gun and Glue Sticks

That’s it! It’s a very simple little DIY face mask tutorial that can go a long way to help protect you and your loved ones. You’ll find the video embedded below.

How the Apple-Google coronavirus contact tracing tech will protect your privacy

Posted on April 14, 2020April 14, 2020 by Authcom

$%name How the Apple Google coronavirus contact tracing tech will protect your privacy by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Apple and Google have devised a cross-platform application to help with coronavirus contact tracing. The app will not track users and will not share any identifying information.
The app will eventually be built into iOS and Android and will rely on Bluetooth to help users monitor their risk of having come in contact with a person that was later diagnosed with COVID-19.
President Trump said in recent remarks that the system may pose unspecified “constitutional problems.”
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

Apple and Google a few days ago announced a massive partnership to set up the technology required to improve contact tracing practices during the COVID-19 pandemic. South Korea is an example where a coronavirus containment campaign focused on aggressive testing and contact tracing works. Health officials focused on testing as many people as possible to find COVID-19 patients and potential carriers. They simultaneously tried to discover all the other people they may have come in contact with. At the time of this writing, South Korea had 10,564 COVID-19 cases and just 222 deaths. Only 2,808 cases are still active. Considering how fast COVID-19 can be transmitted, performing contact tracing without any tech assistance is futile and won’t work, especially during the peak of the outbreak. But contact tracing might play a vital role soon, as social distancing restrictions are eased, and life returns to some sort of normalcy. That’s because the virus won’t disappear without a vaccine, and outbreaks could still reoccur in the future.

What Apple and Google are proposing is a system that could warn people if they get into the proximity of a person who’s been diagnosed with COVID-19. And the entire process is supposed to be anonymous. The two companies won’t collect any user data, and participation will be voluntary.

Galaxy S20 trade-in deal is better than ever for older iPhone, Pixel and Galaxy phones

$%name Galaxy S20 trade in deal is better than ever for older iPhone, Pixel and Galaxy phones by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley$

Samsung has quietly updated its Galaxy S20 trade-in deal, and it’s now offering more money for older devices.
Handsets launch last year, like the iPhone 11, Pixel 4, and Galaxy Note 10, are less valuable than before.
All older iPhone, Pixel, and Galaxy handsets that can be traded-in for a Galaxy S20 will net buyers $100 more than before.
Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

The worst thing about the Galaxy S20 is its sky-high price. Samsung somehow believed that 5G connectivity alone would warrant that $999 price tag, which is what you have to pay for the cheapest Galaxy S20 version before any promotions are applied. The novel coronavirus pandemic has further hurt Galaxy S20 sales, as new smartphones aren’t exactly a priority in the current health crisis. In the past few weeks, Samsung cut the Galaxy S20 price, at least on Amazon, and released a brand new promotion, a 50% price guarantee that ensures you’ll receive half of your money back if you bring back the Galaxy S20 in good working condition in the next 24 months. That’s on top of other deals and promos that are available from Samsung and its partners. And Samsung just made another move to increase Galaxy S20 sales. It’s not offering more money for your old phone than before, but less if you trade-in a newer handset.

NASA’s Perseverance rover is equipped with a suite of imaging tools that will help it navigate and study the landscape of Mars.
A total of five visual instruments are installed on the rover’s head, each with a role to play.
The Mars 2020 mission is still slated to launch this summer, despite the coronavirus pandemic.

When NASA launches the Mars Perseverance rover to the Red Planet this summer it will be the most technologically advanced piece of equipment the space agency has ever sent there. It’s an incredible machine from top to bottom, and to make sure it always knows where it’s going, it’s been equipped with a whole suite of glassy eyes.

As the mission team continues to prepare for launch day, the rover’s various systems are getting a lot of attention. Ensuring that things will work as intended when Perseverance lands on Mars means checking and then rechecking every single component. In a new blog post, NASA explains how the rover’s array of cameras just passed a very important “eye test.”
