New Macs Might Support Super-Fast Gigabit Wi-Fi

A snippet of code from the latest beta version of OS X Mountain Lion indicates that Apple's upcoming Macs will support the new 802.11ac wireless standard, also called 5G Wi-Fi.

The code, which is present in Mountain Lion 10.8.4 beta but not the previous version, 10.8.3, seems to confirm a previous rumor which claimed Apple has struck a deal with Broadcom to include that company's 5G chips in its computers

For users, this mean super-fast wireless data transfer (theoretically, speeds go up to 1.3Gbps,) lower power consumption and extended Wi-Fi range

The 802.11ac standard is still under development, and is expected to become commonplace in 2015. However, Broadcom and other manufacturers have already launched routers that support the standard, and some upcoming cellphones, such as Samsung's Galaxy S4, also support it Read more...

Teen Commits Suicide After Photo of Alleged Rape Goes Viral

Rehtaeh Parsons was just 15 years old when she was allegedly raped by four boys at a friend's home in 2011. She was just 17 when she hanged herself in the bathroom of the family's home in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Between those two extremes of extraordinary violence, Rehtaeh lived as a perpetual victim — of her rapists, who took a photograph of that night and made sure it spread virally among Parsons' classmates, and of the Canadian Mounted Police, who never filed a single charge in the case.

Rehtaeh's case is yet another sad reminder of the power of social media to stretch a moment of sexual violence into a years-long ordeal that destroys a teenager's life. In 2012, another Canadian teen, Amanda Todd, committed suicide after a tormenter coaxed her into flashing her breasts on a teen videochat site, then harassed and blackmailed her for years by sharing X-rated images of her across the Internet. And in Steubenville, Ohio, the rape of a teenage girl by two local football stars was chronicled and shared in real time via Instagram and Twitter last August. Read more...

Japanese Students Invent 'Girlfriend Coat' to Hug Lonely People

Forever alone? Fear not — Japanese students from the University of Tsukuba have developed a "girlfriend coat" to keep you company.

The device looks like a normal coat except for its neon-colored belt, which users fasten around the waist. A machine then winds the belt to simulate the feeling of being hugged from behind. To top it all off, users also wear headphones, which blare out stereotypically girlfriend-esque phrases such as "I'm sorry! I'm late!"

"The concept of this device is everyone can get the feeling [of] having a girlfriend," hardware engineer Hikaru Sugiura said in a YouTube video. Read more...

The NHL's Los Angeles Kings beat the New Jersey Devils last June to take home the franchise's first Stanley Cup title

Ten months later, they're still rubbing it in

The Kings released a video Monday called "The Final Minutes," the 12th installment in a YouTube series recounting the team's journey to the title last season. Harmless enough, right? But check out the post they used to share the video on Twitter:

Some may argue that Justin Bieber's songs are masterpieces out of the gate (they would be mostly of the tween persuasion). But Steve Pycroft felt that, while Bieber's songs had potential, one song in particular coud be raised to a new — and baroque — level

Pycroft took Bieber's pop tune "Beauty and Beat" and rearranged it for a performance by the countertenor Robin Blaze and the University of York Baroque Orchestra and Chamber Choir. The song maintains the original lyrics, but has a whole new feel when slowed down and classed up.

It's a much different type of cover song than we're used to, but it does go to show that any way you slice a Bieber song, it's gonna go viral Read more...

If AT&T and Google Fiber compete to offer ultra-fast Internet, who wins? The city of Austin, that's who

Residents of the Texas tech hub will soon have not one, but two gigabit fiber networks to choose from

AT&T said in a press release Tuesday that it plans to build a gigabit network of its own in the Austin area. Earlier the same day, a weekend's worth of rumors were confirmed when Google announced that it plans bring its much-anticipated Google Fiber network to Austin

While the Google Fiber news had been expected for days, AT&T's announcement took most tech observers by surprise. The timing of AT&T's release was a bit curious as well — coming on the same day as the Google Fiber news; it appears designed to steal a bit of Google's thunder after Fiber got a lot of coverage over the past few days Read more...

BMW Electric Cars Reimagined as Lounge Furniture

How do you give people the experience of riding in an electric vehicle without actually sitting in a car? That was the challenge designers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec undertook for a project with BMW i, the automaker's electric mobility division

The Bouroullec brothers devised Quiet Motion, a lounge installation for the 2013 Salone del Mobile furniture design fair. The design started with the Bouroullecs identifying some key attributes of the BMW i vehicles, namely their lightweight construction, use of environmentally friendly materials and the quiet driving experience

These were all translated into the design of four seating pods. Each is constructed with essentially the same materials used in the forthcoming BMW i vehicles like the i8. Their structures are made with lightweight carbon fiber, surfaces are wrapped in sustainable BMW i fabrics and the platforms are covered with cork, a renewable material. Read more...

Bloomingdales Installs Body Scanners to Help You Find Jeans That Fit

As any woman can tell you, shopping for designer denim is a miserable affair. Sizing has long been inconsistent across brands — an Ann Taylor "6" might be a Diane von Furstenberg "10," for example — but in the jeans department, where there is a need for a more precise fit, the inconsistencies are particularly aggravating.

Enter Me-Ality, a self-billed "digital sizing station" recently installed in six Bloomingdales locations: the 59th Street flagship in Manhattan, Roosevelt Field Mall (N.Y.), Chevy Chase (Md.), Santa Monica Place (Calif.) and South Coast Plaza (Calif.). The stations take 10- to 15-second body scans of shoppers, matching their measurements against those of in-store and online merchandise to recommend brands, styles and sizes likely to fit and flatter them best.

In the past 36 hours, I've spent more time on Facebook than I have in the past three months. I've been liking photos, commenting, and checking in. I'm becoming a real Facebook gadfly. This is all due to the new Facebook Phone, or, more accurately the HTC First, the first phone running Facebook Home.

Facebook Home is Facebook's brand new Android Launcher for Android phones running Ice Cream Sandwich and Jelly Bean (Android 4.0 and 4.1 –- no iOS on the horizon for now) and replaces your standard lock screen with an always-active, ever-in-motion, Facebook-centric homepage

That may sound overwhelming, or even like a very bad idea, but in practice it's not. It simply, and very effectively, puts Facebook in front of everything else you might do with your phone, without, somewhat surprisingly, hiding everything else away. Read more...

Yes, Apple ended up paying millions to license the design for a sleek, iconic Swiss timepiece for its clock in iOS 6. But even if you're a fan of Apple's stock clock, why be boring by sticking with the tried and true?

The popular ChronoGrafik iOS app (on sale for $0.99) features unique clock skins that you can sport on your iPhone or iPad, as explained in the video above.

There are certainly a lot of other clock apps out there, but these unique designs could be eye-catching on your phone when it's on your nightstand or desk. You can choose timepiece looks that range from retro to industrial. The app also includes features like the ability to display in landscape or portrait modes, a countdown timer, weather and custom alarms set to your iTunes music. When your alarm goes off, you can even just shake the phone to send it into snooze mode. Read more...

Anyone who's ever listened to the ring of their cellphone while fumbling through a jam-packed purse to try to fish it out, will appreciate the simplicity of the Pursecase. It's a small clutch purse that holds your iPhone and a few essentials. It just got funded through a successful Kickstarter campaign.

Jenn Deese and her partner Kelley Coughlan started Pursecase to make a product that would hold their iPhone, a few essentials, and more importantly, not get lost. They knew they wanted it to have a pocket for a credit card or ID, as well as a place to hold a key

Speck and other companies make phone cases that have room for a credit card, but it's the Pursecase design with the chain handle and built-in mirror compact that sets it apart. That and the available colors; black, pink, purple, white, teal and neon yellow. The yellow actually glows in the dark. Read more...

In addition to the production timeline, the site claims sources within the Taiwan-based supply chain for the tablet have indicated that the iPad 5 will be both thinner and lighter than its predecessor and will have a slimmer bezel, similar to that found on the iPad mini.

Purported images of the iPad 5 appeared on the web in January of this year. Those images showed a 9.7-inch iPad with an almost identical look to the iPad mini.

Should Free Lunches at Tech Companies Be Taxable?

Lunch
Feed-twFeed-fb

In literal proof to the adage that there's no such thing as a free lunch, the Internal Revenue Service is looking into making employees pay a tax for the gratis meals that have now become a fixture at some tech firms, according to a report.

The Wall Street Journal reports that there is a "growing controversy among tax experts" about how to treat free lunches. The IRS is also looking into the practice. Proponents of a such a tax argue that free food is akin to using a company car, which is taxable. On the other end of the debate, free lunch supporters say it's no different than providing food for workers in remote locations. Such "noncompensatory" meals aren't taxable. While workers at, say, Google's New York office would be hard pressed to make the same claim, tech companies argue that providing lunches helps employees work the type of long hours that have become the norm in the industry and part of its culture.

Remembering the passwords for all your sites can get frustrating. There are only so many punctuation, number substitutes and uppercase variations you can recall, and writing them down for all to find is hardly an option

Thanks to researchers at the UC Berkeley School of Information, you may not need to type those pesky passwords in the future. Instead, you'll only need to think them.

By measuring brainwaves with biosensor technology, researchers are able to replace passwords with "passthoughts" for computer authentication.

How Google Glass Will Change Porn

As goes pornography, so goes the tech industry. When the porn business embraced VHS over Betamax and Blu-ray over HD DVD, videophiles of all tastes followed their lead. The next big innovation might be Google Glass, a pair of Internet-connected glasses that takes photos, records video and offers hands-free Internet access right in front of users' eyes. Once Glass launches, the porn industry intends to take full advantage of this new technology, say two insiders.

"The way that this will change porn is pretty ridiculous," said Alana Evans, a porn actress and radio host of "The Naughty Gamers Show" on Sirius XM. "It's going to cause a huge drive in POV- (point of view) style production." These videos make the viewer feel like part of the action by filming from a first-person perspective. Read more...
