iPhone 11 Pro just destroyed Android in comprehensive performance tests

%name iPhone 11 Pro just destroyed Android in comprehensive performance tests by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

There’s something of a narrative that Apple’s innovation in the smartphone space came to a grinding halt years ago. And while there is some truth to the fact that smartphone innovation on the whole has slowed in recent years, that’s not to say that iPhone releases have been lacking in the new feature department. If anything, we’ve seemingly become so accustomed to new phones with better hardware and better software that we’ve arguably become immune to some of the more impressive advancements offered up by next-gen devices.

Take the iPhone 11 Pro, for example. From the outside looking in, it may not seem all that different from last year’s iPhone or the iPhone X before that. In reality, though, the iPhone 11 Pro has a lot of innovation under the hood that is not readily apparent at first glance. Aside from the introduction of Night mode, which is an overlooked innovation in its own right, the hardware advancements offered up by the iPhone 11 Pro are beyond impressive.

Netflix says its $3 mobile-only plan might expand to more markets

%name Netflix says its $3 mobile only plan might expand to more markets by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

After testing a mobile-only plan in India on a small scale, Netflix went ahead and made it available to everyone in the country a few months ago. For less than $3 a month, Netflix users in India can access the streaming service on one mobile device at a time, whether it’s a smartphone or tablet. It turns out the plan is such a success for the company that Netflix is considering opening it up to customers in other markets. Either that, or the company is already feeling the pressure of incoming streaming services that are a lot cheaper than its own plans. Disney+ has been running a few amazing deals that cut the monthly price down to less than $5, while Apple TV+ comes free for a year to millions of iPhone, Mac, and iPad buyers.

Something is mutilating cattle in Oregon, and yes, aliens are suspected

%name Something is mutilating cattle in Oregon, and yes, aliens are suspected by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Something very strange is happening on the massive Silvies Valley Ranch in eastern Oregon. The ranch, which covers 140,000 acres and includes a golf course, cabin rentals, and a restaurant, recently lost five bulls under eerie circumstances, and ranch staff have absolutely no idea what is going on.

The bulls began dying earlier this summer, with ranch hands finding their lifeless bodies on the range, mutilated and drained of blood. Whatever is killing the cattle is capable of dispatching an animal that can weigh upwards of 2,000 pounds, then spending a considerable amount of time at the dead body before disappearing without a trace.

Scarlett Johansson says ‘Black Widow’ will bring us closure

%name Scarlett Johansson says ‘Black Widow’ will bring us closure by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Going into Avengers: Endgame, we knew some of our favorite superheroes would end up dying for good while trying to undo the snap, and Marvel delivered. Tony Stark was always a top contender to sacrifice himself to save everyone else, but Natasha’s death was an unexpected surprise — albeit a brilliant one, given how it all went down. Fans were still quick to point out that Black Widow didn’t get the same recognition as Iron Man, and they complained that the writers and directors didn’t consider giving Nat a funeral like they did with Stark. Black Widow, the first MCU Phase 4 movie, might fix some of that and bring everyone some closure. At least that’s what the movie’s star Scarlett Johansson says.

Why Google’s sudden focus on privacy might just be a marketing ploy

%name Why Google’s sudden focus on privacy might just be a marketing ploy by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

After countless privacy breaches that prompted increased scrutiny from authorities, and after Apple turned privacy into major selling points of its iPhones and Macs, Google and Facebook quickly pivoted to supporting stronger privacy even though it goes against their whole business model — collecting user data in return for free services, and turning that into piles of cash courtesy of ads. Both companies have a long road ahead to prove they really mean it when they say they want to protect user privacy, no matter how exciting it may be to hear them come up with new pro-privacy features for their products. Google is the latest example, but some of its newest privacy features don’t seem to be anything more than a marketing ploy.
