TechNews - 2014 MacBook Air Benchmarks - tech|
| (hx) 12:16 AM CEST - May,08 2014 |
- 2014 MacBook Air Benchmarks - Apple's new range of
MacBook Airs is out and they include the latest Haswell processors from
Intel as well as a variety of other tweaks and improvements.
Unfortunately the new models don't include Retina displays or, indeed,
improved memory and storage, as the benchmarks are showing. MacWorld
have got their hands on the new MacBook Airs and have compared the
2013 model to the 2014 model, and the results are mixed.
Processor-wise, the new models are slightly improved due to the new
Haswell chips from Intel. In terms of flash storage, however, the new
Airs are slower than the old Airs, with some benchmarks showing that
the new laptops were twice as slow as the old ones.

- iOS 7 bug leaves email attachments unencrypted - A
recently-discovered bug in Apple's iOS 7 mobile operating system has
revealed that any email attachments sent from an iOS 7 device will
remain unencrypted, even if iOS 7's 'Data Protection' feature is
enabled. The
bug was found by Andreas Kurtz, a researcher for NESO Security Labs
in Germany. According to Kurtz, he verified the claim by restoring an
iPhone 4 to iOS 7.1 and setting up an IMAP email account. Kurtz then
accessed the file system, where he discovered that every attachment was
accessible and completely lacked any encryption or restriction.
The findings were reproduced on an iPhone 5s and an iPad 2, both
running iOS 7.0.4. The bug was reported to Apple, who acknowledged that
they were "aware of the issue" but did not provide a timeframe for when
the bug is expected to be fixed.
- Cryptolocker-Like Ransomware Spreads to Android Devices -
Have you been looking at child pornography on your Android phone??!
Quick, pay this fine or the FBI will arrest you! That's how a new type
of Android ransomware is tricking people into paying up. Once
installed, the malware, dubbed "Koler.A," locks up
the phone, preventing users from accessing the home screen and
effectively holding the phones ransom until users pay $300. "Koler.A,"
first detected Sunday (May 4) by the pseudonymous French security
blogger Kafeine, is one of the first discovered examples of Android
ransomware, and the first known "police Trojan" for Android.
Fortunately, its bark is worse than its bite.
- Jury Adjusts What Samsung Owes Apple - A
jury in San Jose today adjusted the damages owed to Apple by Samsung
for violating its smartphone patents. Last Friday, a jury found Samsung
guilty of infringing on two Apple patents. Judge Koh had already found
Samsung guilty of violating one Apple patent earlier during the trial.
In its original verdict, the jury awarded Apple $119.6 million for two
of the patents, but failed to award Apple any damages for the third.
Judge Lucy Koh asked the jury to reconsider. After two hours of
deliberations today, the jury revised the total amount owed by Samsung
to Apple to be $120 million. It added about $4 million for the
additional patent, but revised downward the amounts awarded for the
other two patents. Apple had sought $2.2 billion. Both companies are
expected to appeal aspects of the verdict and damages. The jury also
found Apple guilty of infringing on one Samsung patent. This trial
marks the second major U.S. courtroom battle between the two companies
over smartphone patents. Samsung was found guilty in 2012 of violating
various Apple patents. In that case, Apple was awarded damages of $930
million.

- Watch a sea plane take off from a truck trailer - Some,
but not all, sea planes come with wheels in their floats so that they
can work on the water or land. But have you ever thought about how a
plane without wheels, water or runway would take off? The answer
is incredibly cool to watch. The plane is on a little cart at the
back of a truck and speeds down the runway. When it hits take off speed
the amazing part happens. The float plane goes from sitting on its
little platform to airborne in just a split second.
