TechNews - Windows 8.1 Update 2 in July? - tech|
| (hx) 01:30 AM CEST - Jun,29 2014 |
- Microsoft Will Give You $650 Store Credit For A MacBook Air - Microsoft
is running a
promotion that gives you up to $650 in store credit when you trade
in select MacBook Air models and buy a Surface Pro 3. In related news,
the chaps at iFixit have posted a
teardown of the Microsoft Surface Pro.
- Are you having any issues with the Wi-Fi on your Surface Pro
3? - Microsoft released its Surface Pro 3 last week and so far,
there do not appear to be any major hiccups with the launch. And while most users
appear to be having no issues with their devices, a thread on
Microsoft's support forums states that some are having issues
connecting to Wi-Fi after waking up the device from sleep
- Netflix First Original Anime Series Looks Awesome - Plenty
of fireworks in the US on July 4th and Netflix will be adding a little
extra flash-bang of its own with the introduction of its first original
anime series entitled Knights of Sidonia.
- Windows 8.1 Update 2 Could Debut in July - The Russian
super-leaker Wzor,
who by the way is uncannily correct in his predictions, has pegged
announcements on both operating systems coming on July 13-17 at the
Worldwide Partner Conference.
The first tweet goes like this: "Windows 8.1 Update 2 will be announced
during Microsoft WPC 2014 July 13-17 Win 9 beta will be probably
presented same time. by WZT" And the second: "JUNE 06/26/14, WINDOWS
8.1 UPDATE 2 RTM Build sign-OFF is more likely occurring now! by
WZT"
Update 2 probably won't have a desktop Start menu or a Modern-Mix style
capability for running Metro apps inside resizable windows on the
desktop. Instead, most bets emphasize plumbing changes in Update 2 and
very little if anything on the UI side.
- YouTube to Get 60 FPS Option - YouTube will soon have the
ability to display a higher framerate than most Xbox One games. They
revealed earlier this evening that they will "soon" have 48 FPS and 60
FPS options for uploaders. They even went so far as to include a few
sample videos that are apparently already running at 60 FPS.
Unfortunately for everyone, it seems as though YouTube still insists at
compressing the visual quality down just as much as before. So while
the jump in framerate is certainly welcome, it doesn't really help when
the overall quality still suffers greatly because of their re-encoding
process. You
can see the sample video here!
- The Man Who Turned Paper Into Pixels - Computers
are everywhere and control almost every aspect of our lives. In the next
6 minutes you'll find out how they really work.
- Intelligent Flying Robots - The University of
Sheffield is developing flying robots that can learn as they fly.
Researchers say the flying robots will become self-aware at 2:14 A.M.
EST on August 29th.
- Test Driving Harley-Davidson's First Electric
Motorcycle - It might be a neat piece of tech, but will it
impress the people who actually buy motorcycles.
- 2017 Porsche Panamera Likely To Be Powered By New V6 And V8
Engines - The 2017 Porsche Panamera could be powered by new
V6 and V8 engines after two mules were spied during tests at the
Nurburgring in Germany-the exhaust notes betraying the pedigree of the
motors. Earlier this year, there were rumors that Porsche were
developing brand new V6 and V8s for the second generation Panamera,
which is slated to be released in the second half of 2016.
- Harrier With Jammed Nose Gear Lands On A Stool - Harriers are
some of the toughest planes to handle, but this guy makes it look
easy.
- Jimmy Kimmel Live's 8th Annual Belly Flop Competition - We
have a cherished tradition here at the show to ring in the start of
summer. Every year we set up an above-ground swimming pool behind our
theater. Then we pull a group of confused pedestrians off the street,
put them in bathing suits and make them
compete in a belly flop contest. Those flops are judged by a
celebrity panel, which this year features former Olympian Greg
Louganis, Cheryl Burke from "Dancing With The Stars" and "Wipeout" host
John Henson.
- Sigourney Weaver actually made that impossible
basketball shot - Bullshit. I want to see $30m worth
of CGI and makeup for this scene :-D
- You Should Watch This Short Film About How We Lie On Social
Media - Facebook can be depressing because everyone else's lives
are better than yours... But are they really?
- All the Transformers Movies In 3 Minutes - Think you're
ready to see "Transformers: Age of Extinction"? Not so
fast. There's a ton of important continuity from the first three
movies. But instead of spending more than seven hours watching or
re-watching those flicks, you can just watch this three-minute
explainer
of the whole franchise thus far.
- TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES Trailer #2 - Yes, that's a
Skrillex song that got recycled from a "Mortal Kombat" game. And yes,
this movie looks terrible.
- Here's The First Teaser For 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part
1' - Nothing gets an audience salivating for a sequel like a little
propaganda.

- Guardians of the Galaxy TV Spot 4 - Cherry Bomb! - Learn
why Peter Quill wants to save the galaxy in a new preview for Marvel's
"Guardians of the Galaxy," in theaters August 1!
- Star Wars (Guardians of the Galaxy Style!) - If "Star
Wars" were made today, it's not hard to imagine it'd be marketed
very similarly to "Guardians Of The Galaxy."
- The Purge: Anarchy - Trailer 'The Hunt' (Universal Pictures)
HD - A
young couple works to survive on the streets after their car breaks
down right as the annual purge commences.
- Fury Official Trailer (2014) Brad Pitt, Shia LaBeouf HD - April,
1945. As the Allies make their final push in the European Theatre, a
battle-hardened army sergeant named Wardaddy
(Brad Pitt) commands a Sherman tank and her five-man crew on a
deadly mission behind enemy lines. Outnumbered and outgunned, and with
a rookie soldier thrust into their platoon, Wardaddy and his men face
overwhelming odds in their heroic attempts to strike at the heart of
Nazi Germany.

Katy and Amon Amarth both have a good sense of humor about how great
this mashup is.
- If Guns Were Dildos, These Kids Would Be Dead - And the
award for cleverest gun safety PSA goes to...
- What Happens If You Speed In Ireland - Ireland does
not screw around when it comes to its speeding PSAs apparently.
- Liquid Nitrogen Goes Nuts Inside A Vacuum Chamber - Chances
are you've only seen liquid nitrogen in its gassy form. Turns out this
substance only gets cooler the more pressure you put on it.

surprised if Nokia launches a water resistant phone :D

nicely done piece of advertorial content, Stella

at Wimbledon.
- Here's 30 Seconds Of Inhumanly Fast Rope-Jumping - 30
seconds may not seem like a long time. Unless
you're doing this!
- Watch This Girl Pull Off Amazing Hula Hoop Tricks - Rachael Lust
does things with a hoola hoop that physics will need decades to
understand.
- What Does It Mean To Do Something 'Like A Girl'? - Yes, this is
a tampon commercial. But it's also a pretty moving statement about
how ass-backwards our ideas on gender are.
- EA UFC Glitches Are Even Better When You Add Commentary To
Them - No
game is without entertaining glitches, and EA's UFC game is not
exception.
- Meet Hottie Chelsea Le Roux - Say hi to Chelsea Le
Roux
