If you’ve been waiting for smartphone makers to come out with the all-screen design of your dreams, you’ve got a while left to wait here in the US. Phone vendors in other regions have already come up with some fantastic solutions for all-screen phones though, and the Oppo Find X is everyone’s favorite so far. The entire face of the phone is screen, with no interruption even for the selfie cam. So where’s the front-facing camera? It’s hidden behind the display in a motorized mechanism that automatically pops up when you need it.

How awesome is that!?! And here’s the best part: It might not be sold by carriers in the US, but it’s already available right now on Amazon for hundreds of dollars less than a comparable iPhone XS Max!

There’s finally a Chrome extension that fixes the worst thing about Netflix

%name There’s finally a Chrome extension that fixes the worst thing about Netflix by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Can you imagine life without Netflix at this point? We can, but we’d rather not. Netflix is a rare example of a paid subscription service that is beloved but the overwhelming majority of its users. In fact, several large-scale surveys conducted in the past few years have shown that people would happily pay even more than they’re paying now for Netflix’s service. Having thousands and thousands of shows, movies, documentaries, and specials always available at your fingertips is a luxury that people simply aren’t willing to give up. And of course the main draw for Netflix has become original content. The company has become one of the biggest and most successful studios in the world, with a budget of billions of dollars and a record number of awards. Netflix subscribers look forward to the release of new original series, movies, and stand-up comedy specials more so than any third-party content, and that won’t change anytime soon.

Of course, nothing is perfect and that includes Netflix. There are a few common complaints people have about the service, but we have some fantastic news: The one thing people hate the most about Netflix has finally been fixed, and all you need is a free extension for Google’s Chrome browser.

The Galaxy S10+ will be the best Galaxy S10 version next year in most markets — that is, if you don’t count the 5G Galaxy S10+ which should offer users a bunch of extra features. The phone will have a gorgeous all-screen design, and as many as five cameras onboard, including the rear and selfie cameras. We already saw Galaxy S10 renders based on leaked designs, but it’ll be another two months until we get to see actual photos and videos of the flagship phone. However, a leaker who’s been providing consistent information about unreleased Samsung phone found a clever way to create a “Galaxy S10+” video using an actual device.

But that process may become a lot easier soon, as Apple is ready to support in-app purchase gifting.

Study: If you pay the average person at least $1,000, they’ll #DeleteFacebook

%name Study: If you pay the average person at least $1,000, they’ll #DeleteFacebook by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The latest privacy red flags to emerge out of Facebook — thanks this time to a bombshell New York Times report that uncovered all kinds of hairbrained moves, like Facebook allowing outside companies to get a peek at users’ private messages — is adding more fuel to the fire. The fire in this case being the informal #DeleteFacebook movement, which tends to pick up a head of steam whenever new privacy-related revelations like these arise.

It sometimes spurs big names to announce their own departures from using the service, as former tech journalist Walt Mossberg did in recent days, which spurs even more people to get in on the act. Naturally, that led some researchers to ponder — could a monetary incentive actually spur people to give up Facebook? And if so, how much would it take? Well, folks, we have an answer.

$1,000 appears to be the magic number.

Netflix claims it never accessed private messages from Facebook users

%name Netflix claims it never accessed private messages from Facebook users by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

It’s been something of a wild, if not downright controversial, year for Facebook. While the company was simply content to remain a social networking behemoth far removed from controversy, the company was thrust into the spotlight this year once details surrounding the Cambridge Analytica scandal emerged. Since then, Facebook has continuously found itself embroiled in one privacy-related controversy after another.

The latest chapter in Facebook’s fall from grace came via a New York Times expose which alleges that Facebook gave third-party tech giants like Amazon, Google, and Netflix far more access to user data than anyone had previously imagined. In one particularly outrageous claim, the Times notes that companies like Netflix were given the ability to read private messages from Facebook users.

SpaceX is already leading the charge in commercialized spaceflight with a packed schedule of launches and partnerships with countless space agencies and private companies, but its deal with NASA is easily one of its most important.

SpaceX has been tasked with developing a crewed launch vehicle that is capable of ferrying astronauts to and from the International Space Station, and it’s already behind schedule. The Crew Dragon capsule is still being worked on, but the U.S. government is eager to see progress. To that end, Vice President Mike Pence took a tour of SpaceX’s launch facilities and got an up-close-and-personal look at a finished Crew Dragon, prompting SpaceX to release some gorgeous new photos of the vehicle to the public.
