Physical access to any device would result in potential exploit. If one were to hand over a device to law enforcement or especially border control and received it back, you should immediately reset the device via DFU mode and set an entirely new str…

Original iPad Pro 12.9" 128GB w/Cellular and five years later it's still working strong. Who buys a new iPad every time a new one ships? I see little reason to upgrade, I am going to wait a bit longer to see if there really is a major change coming…

Here's how this is all likely to shake out. Apple will eventually produce a new 5nm CPU design built for laptops based on the previous work of the mobile A13 Bionic SoC. Except it will have a higher clock speed, more highspeed and power efficien…

Crikey, just buy a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro 13" and be done with the idea of turning an iPad into a laptop. You are using the iPad wrong if this your idea of how things should work. Or just use a keyboard cover, add a bluetooth mouse and use the…

Professionals in the music business use external hardware with Mac's all the time. In fact, some professionals have started buying Mac Pro's despite the cost because they are filling those slots with studio quality DSP gear. Rack mounting the Mac P…

GeorgeBMac said: So, what is the benefit of a 200+mph car if the speed limit is 65? Isn't Apple still installing the A10 (from September, 2016) in new products today in 2020? Don't they work (for 95% of users) just fine? "640K ought to…

NOT A HACKER! He/She/It merely scanned AWS / S3 instances until insecure hosts were found then He/She/It downloaded data and bragged about it. Likely ran a rather simply python script using some inside information about AWS / S3 learned while being …

Meh... Who cares it's encrypted. People don't realize it but when Amazon AWS experienced a US East data center outage half the Internet stopped working. Many companies host on AWS at least part of their infrastructure. Amazons most profitable bus…

Pretty sure AT&T had this problem years ago with their offshore call centers. Reps were being bribed to unlock stolen iPhones. Enormous black market for theses stolen devices. They end up overseas. One would think they would be monitoring the…

Definitely need some patent law reform. This is crazy...

Cellebrite's previous exploits used USB via Lightning cable to brute force the passcode (4-6 digit PIN). Then Apple disabled USB access unless the user trusts it. Now they say they can get around that and they already got around the erase after 10 …

Been using FaceID with iPhone XS for months as well. It is far superior to TouchID. Apple made the correct choice. As to Samsung's sensor being fooled? Same happened with TouchID when it was announced. Security researchers captured a finger pri…

Having spent approximately two and a half hours on the phone with Mark Knighton, when I originally received my TextBlade, I can honestly say the man is a bloody genius. This is his baby and he intends to release it when he is completely happy with …

neilm said: Fascinating vaporware, but pretty much vaporware nonetheless. Well it cannot be "vaporware" because it is a physical device and not software, besides that, I am typing on a TREG unit right now. It is a wonderful keyboard and …

Putting LED bulbs in my garage door opener resulted in the radio transmitter failing to close the door. Worked fine to open the door as the lights are off but the door would not close due to EMF put out by the bulbs so close to the receiver on the …

The real issue is the right to repair. Let's hope Apple changes and starts offering 3rd party repair centers the components and replacement parts they require. There is no reason they cannot do it. They could even profit a bit selling parts to th…

The event was rather lame. But we aren't the target audience. Hollywood and TV Networks were the target.

This was the most exciting part of the entire event. Meh, news... Meh, games.... Meh, easier to sign up for HBO/Showtime. Meh... 99.9% of those new shows are going to flop hard. Except for Spielberg. The #1 used App on my Apple TV? Plex hands do…
