Amazon plans over 3000 'Project Kuiper' satellites to spread global broadband
One thing to note about these low-latency satellite networks is that they will all be in a very low earth orbit. People are concerned about space junk, but these satellites are so low that even if they fail, they will quickly de-orbit and fall back to earth. They also are small enough that they will completely burn up on re-entry, posing little to no risk to people on the ground.
The flip-side to this is since they are so low, they will need frequent replacement.

Apple's latest Tesla hire may point to powertrain for full-scale 'Apple Car'
I have a feeling Apple is developing a EV chassis platform for others. Battery, frame, wheels, powertrain, software etc, but the actual "car" where you sit will be open to anything a manufacturer wants. Kind of like a bare stakebed truck. You could put a box on back, or a normal pickup back, or anything.

President Trump insists he was saving time by calling Cook 'Tim Apple'
Exactly. That's why I just say "Trump Idiot" vs the normal "President Trump is an idiot."jbdragon said:Sounds good to me. Why say Tim Cook from Apple, when you can just shorten it to Tim Apple. Probably not, but he see's a lot of people every day. I'm sure he has Apple in in mind, and Tim Cook, and it came out Tim Apple. It's a perfectly normal thing. People are far from perfect. Obama said we had 57 states. Actually it was 58 total.

I can point to many others though the main stream media don't generally cover these type of things on the left. Every little thing Trump does, oh they are right there to jump all over it.

While any vulnerability is a bad thing, the type of attack outlined here in this article should generally be of no concern to average users.

Future iPhones could use tech in Face ID for improved 3D Touch capabilities
While I'm sure Apple has thought of this, why can't the IR camera and the proximity sensor be combined? If the IR camera shows no image, then shut off the screen. If it shows anything, then turn the screen on.
Can someone explain why this wouldn't work?
