Facebook is working on a dark mode version of its Android app       + F acebook is developing a dark mode version of its Android app.  This is according to researcher  Jane Manchun Wong  (via  Android Police ), who dug into the app's code and discovered some parts of the app have been reworked to have a dark background.   Jane Manchun Wong @wongmjane Facebook is working on Dark Mode for mobile I wrote a blog about this: http:// wongmjane.com/blog/fb-dark-m ode  … Tip @ Techmeme 257 12:33 AM - Aug 13, 2019 Twitter Ads info and privacy 89 people are talking about this The bad news is that the dark mode appears to be in early stages of development, with only some screens in the app being anything close to finished, meaning it could take a while until we actually see the finished product.  Check out the image below to see some elements of Facebook's UI in (unfinished) dark mode.  The dar

USB inventor regrets making them so difficult to plug in correctly

USB inventor regrets making them so difficult to plug in correctly       + While plugging plug a mouse, a phone, or a thumb drive into your computer, you try to stick the USB into its slot, only to find it stopping prematurely. You flip it around, but it still won't go in. So you flip it back to the original position and it slides in without a hitch. We've all been there, and the inventor of the USB sees our pain. Ajay Bhatt, the leader behind the IBM team that gave us the USB in the mid-'90s, revealed in an  interview with NPR  Friday that he is well aware of the annoyances the public has with USB, or Universal Serial Bus, but there's a reason it's designed the way it is.  "The biggest annoyance is reversibility," Bhatt told NPR. He's got that right. "Of course it was not as easy as it should be" For outsiders, it seems like designing the USB so it can be reversible would be an easy fix to everyone's pro

a smart bike helmet with an LED turn signal

Apple now sells a smart bike helmet with an LED turn signal       + Bike commuters do a lot to make drivers notice them. They slap reflectors on their clothes, install lights on their bikes, and put on neon yellow vests. Now they can use turn signals like a car. Apple started selling  Lumos Matrix helmets  in its stores and online Wednesday. They come in two colors — white and black — and retail for $249.95. The Lumos Matrix reimagines the function of helmets for today’s electric scooter and bike riders, co-founder and CEO Eu-wen Ding says. “Design is really about solving human problems, but no one is really looking at [the commuters’] problems,” Ding says. “What the traditional guys are trying to solve is, ‘How can we make this super lightweight? How can we make this super aerodynamic?' We are asking different questions: ‘How can we make a helmet that has a lot of lights, that can be seen from far away, and that drivers can recognize?’”

Huawei launches the nova 5T in the UAE       + BY  ANKUSH CHIBBER 5 DAYS, 12 HOURS Huawei has unveiled the nova 5T, its latest budget flagship smartphone, taking aim at the millennial segment as it aims to grow its market share in the MENA region. At an event in Dubai today, Huawei announced that the nova 5T will be able for pre-order in the UAE starting October 22, and for sale starting October 31 at a retail price of AED1,599. The nova 5T will be available in 3 color variants— black, blue, and a flagship purple that comes with a new nova monogram pattern.

The Android-powered 5T comes with four rear cameras, including a 48MP HD lens, 16MP wide-angle lens, 2MP macro lens, and 2MP bokeh lens. This camera setup is complemented by features such as AI Image Stabilization, Super Night Mode, AI HDR+ backlit photo, Auto Exposure Lock and Auto Focus Lock. On the video fro

Elon Musk says monster Tesla seen on racetrack will go into production by summer 2020

Elon Musk says monster Tesla seen on racetrack will go into production by summer 2020       + BY  STAN SCHROEDER 4 DAYS, 1 HOUR Tesla is back at Nürburgring.  Two Tesla Model S cars have been spotted (via  Teslarati ) on the legendary German race track, and while there are no official lap times for them yet, the cars themselves are interesting.  Back in September, when Tesla cars were first  spotted  at Nürburgring, Tesla CEO Elon Musk  said  that their (unofficial) track times will be "beaten by the actual production 7 seat Model S Plaid variant that goes into production around Oct/Nov next year."  While we can't say whether they're 7- or 5-seaters, the new Tesla cars seen whizzing on the race track (see video below) have some new features, including air vents on the front and a big rear diffuser (only on the blue Model S, though).  Again, Elon Musk chimed in on Twitter to say that the final configuration that will be used at the racetrac

Samsung Galaxy S10 bug lets any fingerprint unlock it

Samsung Galaxy S10 bug lets any fingerprint unlock it       + The fingerprint scanner on the Galaxy S10, and potentially other Samsung phones, can be defeated with a $3.46 case — but the company is already working on a fix. The somewhat horrifying news comes via The Sun , which spoke to a British couple who discovered the bug. After fitting her Samsung Galaxy S10 in a cheap silicone case that covered the front and back of the phone, she realized that her husband was able to unlock it with ease, even though his fingerprint wasn't registered on the device. According to  Reuters , Samsung said on Thursday that it's aware of the issue and will roll out a fix "soon." The company claims that the issue stems from the fingerprint scanner recognizing a pattern on the silicone phone case along with the fingerprint. It's unclear which phones are affected, but given that the S10, S10+ and the Note 10 all use an in-display, ultrasonic fingerprint scanner,

Jennifer Aniston reacts to her new, record-breaking Instagram account       + Jennifer Aniston may only have been  on Instagram  for about a day, but she's already cruised past 11 million followers – casually  breaking a world  record in the process. To be fair, her  first post  — a reunion selfie with her co-stars from  Friends  — was a ridiculously strong way to open. In the clip above from  Jimmy Kimmel Live! , Aniston talks about her decision to join the app — or rather, her decision to finally bow under the pressure to join. "What you resist, persist, so what the hey," she tells Kimmel, before admitting she hasn't spent much time looking at Instagram yet. "I'm just trying to 'build content', as they say," she jokes. The good news? That selfie definitely isn't a one-off. Aniston has already posted a  new video , and she says she has a selfie lined up and ready to go with Diane Sawyer (who she had dinner with as part

NASA's Mars InSight is unstuck

NASA's Mars InSight is unstuck and officially back to work       + BY  ADAM ROSENBERG 13 HOURS, 51 MINUTES It was looking grim for NASA's Mars InSight mission back at the beginning of October. But now, things seem to have turned around. The InSight lander had originally been sent to the Red Planet with the goal of drilling some 16 feet into the Martian terrain, to measure heat beneath the surface. But after only 14 inches of progress,  there was a problem : the "mole" (aka drill with a built-in heat probe) would go no further. It got stuck in Feb. 2019 and remained that way until early October, when NASA came up with a new plan. The idea was to use the InSight lander's metal scoop to refill the 14-inch hole and then act as a support for the mole to press up against as it tunneled down. The whole scheme was based on an assumption that the below-ground hold-up was heavily clumped together soil, rather than rock. The scoop, then, would help gui
