5G iPhone 12 may drive the biggest upgrade cycle we’ve seen in years

%name 5G iPhone 12 may drive the biggest upgrade cycle we’ve seen in years by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

With the iPhone now accounting for less than half of Apple’s quarterly revenue, the old narrative that we’ve reached “peak iPhone” has re-surfaced yet again. And if we’re being honest, it’s not such an outlandish view to hold these days. After all, iPhone sales over the past few quarters, at best, have remained steady. Thanks to more reliable devices, incremental upgrades, and the elimination of generous carrier subsidies, the reality is that iPhone owners simply aren’t upgrading to new devices the way they used to.

Looking ahead, that dynamic may be poised to change. Apple’s forthcoming iPhone 11 lineup likely won’t boost iPhone sales in a meaningful way, but the iPhone 5G Apple is expected to launch in 2020 could very well prompt a massive refresh cycle the likes of which we haven’t seen since the iPhone 6 arrived 2014.

Holy crap, a 3-foot python escaped in a Wisconsin high school and no one can find it

%name Holy crap, a 3 foot python escaped in a Wisconsin high school and no one can find it by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Being a high school student is stressful for many reasons, but students at Fond Du Lac High School in Wisconsin now one more thing to worry about as they begin attending classes for the year: a python that broke free from the school’s science lab.

As the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports, the snake somehow slipped out of its enclosure and is now nowhere to be found. School officials have searched for the snake, named Kai, just about everywhere, and now believe that the reptile may have found its way into the school’s ventilation system, making the search considerably more complicated.

For the past few years, we have been diligently informing our readers about all the new releases coming to Netflix on both a weekly and monthly basis, mostly because Netflix itself does a surprisingly terrible job getting this information out itself. But at long last, the streaming service is adding an entire tab dedicated to new and upcoming content so you don’t have to visit our site every time you want to know when something is going to debut.

You should still check our site on occasion, of course, but now you don’t have to check all the time.

Samsung may be trying to come up with Android tablets that can compete with Apple’s high-end iPad Pro, but that’s not what other tablet vendors are doing. Some of them, like Lenovo, are imagining affordable tablet experiences for the masses that might not be available from other budget-friendly Android tablets. That’s the case with the new Yoga Smart Tab and the Smart Tab M8 tablets. The two devices are great tablets to begin with, but the coolest thing about these new models is what happens when you’re not using them.

T. Rex skulls had built-in air conditioning

%name T. Rex skulls had built in air conditioning by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

When you look at a fossilized skull from the mighty Tyrannosaurus rex there are a few things you’ll immediately notice. For starters, it’s huge compared to the rest of its body, with almost cartoonish proportions. It’s also packed with massive, dagger-like teeth that could crush just about anything and, wait, what are those big holes for?

For years, the prevailing theory of why the T. rex had those large gaps in its skull was related to its complex jaw muscles. It was believed that dense muscles took up this space and aided the animal by providing an even more forceful bite. Now, a new study published in The Anatomical Record suggests that the holes had an altogether different purpose, and it was related to heat management.
