At WWDC 2017, Apple proved it hasn’t forgotten about its pro users Posted: 07 Jun 2017 01:54 PM PDT One of the more interesting narratives to surround Apple in recent years holds that the company has either forgotten or simply doesn't care about pro users anymore. This narrative can arguably be traced back to the company's 2013 Mac Pro design and only picked up steam following the release of Apple's 2016 MacBook Pro with the Touch Bar. As a quick refresher, Apple's flagship MacBook Pro was derided for being overpriced and under-powered, with many users lamenting the fact that Apple's pro-oriented machine could only support 16GB of RAM. In fact, the backlash against Apple was so strong that Tim Cook and other executives were forced to confront the criticism head on, with Cook stating the following during a company shareholder meeting earlier this year: "You will see us do more in the pro area. The pro area is very important to us. The creative area is very important to us in particular." Just two months later, Apple executives held a special meeting with select tech outlets where they assured developers and creative professionals that new and advanced pro-oriented hardware was in the product pipeline. Not only did Apple relay that a completely redesigned Mac Pro was on the way, but Phil Schiller made a point of noting that the company was working on iMac configurations developed "specifically with the pro customer in mind." True to form, Apple at WWDC 2017 demonstrated that its pro users have a lot to look forward to. Aside from supercharging its iPad lineup, Apple updated the entirety of its MacBook line with speedier Kaby Lake processors and faster SSDs. Further, some of Apple's notebooks will now feature more powerful graphics. Apple on Monday also took some time to refresh its iMac lineup, gracing its iconic all-in-one machine with more memory and faster processors. Of course, the star of show -- at least as it pertains to the Mac -- was Apple's iMac Pro. Priced at $4,999 with an option to max the machine out with 18 core Xeon processors, Apple's brand new iMac is a clear indication that Apple has decidedly not forgotten about its pro user base. In a nutshell, Apple's upcoming iMac Pro is an absolute monster of a machine. And though the iMac Pro won't ship until December, the fact that Apple announced it so far in advance was a subtle nod to users who have grown impatient with slower product upgrades over the years. In other words, the current MacBook and iMac upgrades and the forthcoming iMac Pro update sends a clear message that Apple not only has exciting new hardware today, but even more exciting and powerful hardware coming down the pipeline. And that's not even to speak of a revamped Mac Pro which, if we're lucky, will be unveiled sometime next year. WWDC 2017 may not have been the most exciting keynote we've ever seen, but for any consumers who has been patiently waiting for a solid improvement to the Mac, Monday's keynote was nothing short of encouraging.

Cosby's accuser stands by her story under cross-examination Posted: 07 Jun 2017 06:58 PM PDT NORRISTOWN, Pa.

India opposition leader Gandhi arrested amid farmers protest Posted: 08 Jun 2017 07:01 AM PDT Indian police on Thursday briefly arrested leading opposition figure Rahul Gandhi as he tried to reach farmers striking in Madhya Pradesh, where five protesters were earlier killed in clashes. The 46-year-old Congress party leader was detained as he crossed into the volatile region in central India by bike, having ditched his car to avoid detection by local authorities who denied him permission to visit. Gandhi, the scion to the Nehru-Gandhi dynasty that ruled India through its Congress Party for decades, almost reached the epicentre of farmer riots that have roiled the area in recent days, but was stopped and held by police.

Finance giants step in to Hong Kong gay court battle Posted: 07 Jun 2017 03:32 AM PDT Major international finance institutions in Hong Kong made a landmark intervention Wednesday in the case of a gay couple struggling to get their rights recognised by the city's courts.

Law firm Davis Polk and Wardwell, representing the companies, said their clients had intervened "to assist the court by giving a more rounded picture of the issues".

From ‘great respect’ to ‘nut job’: A year in the lives of James Comey and Donald Trump Posted: 07 Jun 2017 06:43 AM PDT Here is a timeline of the actions of and interactions between Donald Trump and James Comey leading up to Thursday's much-anticipated Senate hearing.

Donald Trump's official schedule includes 'meeting with Obamacare victims' Posted: 07 Jun 2017 09:45 AM PDT Donald Trump will meet with what he calls "Obamacare victims" on an official visit to Ohio, where he will also discuss his infrastructure initiatives ban. The White House hasn't released too much information on who those "victims" may be, but Republicans including the president have railed on rising premiums in states across the country. Rate hikes and insurer abandonment of markets — Anthem recently announced that it would drop out of the Ohio market, for instance — don't necessarily paint as pure of a failure of Obamacare as Republicans say, however.

Nearly 200 people have been reported killed since militants flying black flags of the Islamic State group went on a rampage in Marawi, the main Muslim city in the predominantly Catholic Philippines, on May 23. While much of the focus has been on the hundreds of gunmen reportedly involved, authorities said Thursday that they had been receiving support from local politicians and residents.

Tesla releases Model Y teaser photo and sheds light on upcoming semi truck Posted: 07 Jun 2017 01:31 PM PDT Tesla currently has all hands on deck as it prepares to begin mass production on the Model 3, but Elon Musk and co. certainly aren't resting on their laurels. On the contrary, Tesla is planning to introduce a number of new vehicles in the coming years, including a revamped Roadster and a pickup truck. Also on the docket is a crossover version of the Model 3 dubbed the Model Y. Elon Musk initially confirmed that the Model Y was in the works about two years ago, even hinting that it may feature the same type of falcon wing doors Tesla originally introduced with the Model X. Notably, though, the Model Y will likely be based on a different platform than the Model 3. Yesterday, Tesla held its annual shareholders meeting in California and took the time to disclose some new information on a few upcoming Tesla initiatives. Of particular interest, though, was the first official teaser we've seen of the Model Y, an image which you can view below. It's hard to take too much away from the photo, but it's still a lot sleeker than some of the previous concepts we've seen floating around the web. During the shareholder meeting, Musk stated that the Model Y may prove to be even more popular than the Model 3. That's quite a prediction given that Model 3 reservations are believed to be in the 400,000 range. At this point, it remains unclear when Tesla plans to introduce the Model Y. Indeed, the next car likely to come off of Tesla's production line --after the Model 3 -- is a Tesla semi-truck. With respect to Tesla's upcoming semi-truck, Musk yesterday (via Electrek) said that it will feature the "highest weight capability with long-range" and that we can expect to see a working prototype before 2018. "We have shown it to a number of people who buy heavy duty trucking and they all love it," Musk said. "They just want to know how many can they buy and how soon. The biggest customers of the heavy duty Tesla Semi are helping ensure that it is specified to their needs. It's not a mystery. they already know that it is going to meet their needs because they told us what those needs are." About two months ago, Musk said that Tesla's semi-truck "team has done an amazing job" while adding that the design is "seriously next level." Additionally, Tesla a few weeks back rolled out the following teaser image of its forthcoming semi-truck. http://media.zenfs.com/en_US/News/BGR_News/tesla-semi-truck.jpg?quality=98&strip=all&strip=all

NYC subway riders will get their dogs on board no matter what anyone says Posted: 07 Jun 2017 10:42 AM PDT A new NYC transit rule went into effect last October, which bans dogs from riding the subway — unless they fit inside a "container." What the powers that be didn't realize, though, is just how many dogs fit inside containers. In fact, judging by these photos ... it seems like most dogs fit inside bags.

Coalition strikes 'kill 17 civilians' as battle for Raqa rages Posted: 08 Jun 2017 05:09 PM PDT An international coalition pounded Raqa with air strikes Thursday, with a monitor saying at least 17 civilians had been killed in the bombardment as US-backed fighters pushed further into the Islamic State group's Syrian bastion. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said US-led coalition forces had hit the city and its suburbs with at least 25 strikes, warning that dozens had been injured and the death toll could rise. The air strikes came after US-backed fighters with the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) battled deeper into Raqa, two days after finally entering following a months-long struggle to surround a city that has become synonymous with IS atrocities since its capture by the jihadists in 2014.

NASA’s new Mars rover is completely insane Posted: 07 Jun 2017 03:34 PM PDT Thus far, NASA has landed a total of four rovers on Mars, and while the conversation surrounding sending humans to the red planet is a hot topic, there are no concrete plans to actually make the journey happen. When it does happen, however, the brave folks who make the trip are going to need something to drive on the planet's surface if they hope to actually do any exploring. With that in mind, NASA has revealed a concept vehicle that has no business being sent to Mars, but the agency is pretty excited about it anyway. The vehicle, which has been named simply "Mars rover," looks like a cross between a Halo warthog, the Mako from Mass Effect, and the Batmobile. It's a futuristic, manned exploration vehicle that looks like it would be more at home in the next Alien flick than actually being driven by astronauts. It's packed with displays and controls that are straight up sci-fi, and it looks both rugged and incredibly intimidating. That being said, this isn't a NASA product. Despite being shown off at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex and wearing NASA's own badge right on its nose, the vehicle was actually crafted by a team of custom car builders who were clearly aiming for a specific look at the expense of all else. Still, the rover is a pretty capable machine, and is capable of speeds as high as 70 mph (around 15 mph on Mars) via its electric drivetrain. You definitely won't see NASA sending one of these into space any time soon, but it sure is pretty to look at.

Watch mesmerizing footage of SpaceX's historic rocket landing Posted: 07 Jun 2017 06:42 AM PDT SpaceX is developing a reputation for making the amazing seem routine. That was the case on June 3, when the Elon Musk-led company made history with its launch of a re-used space capsule, and successfully recovered a rocket booster back on land in Cape Canaveral.   Now we can watch it (over and over) in glorious high-definition.  SEE ALSO: Why Elon Musk, not Donald Trump, is the most important person on Twitter The launch-and-landing, which transported supplies to the International Space Station, was the fifth time Elon Musk's spaceflight company has successfully landed a rocket booster on land; it also has six successful sea landings — on drone ships — under its belt.  The reflight of its Dragon capsule — which first went to the Space Station in 2014 — also made SpaceX the first private company to launch the same cargo capsule to orbit more than once. If you want to watch another of SpaceX's launches live, you're in luck: There are three more on the schedule between now and July 1, 2017.

One of the hottest iOS 11 features will force you to buy a new iPhone Posted: 08 Jun 2017 06:14 AM PDT Apple isn't playing around anymore. Augmented reality (AR) is a huge part of the company's vision of the future for the iPhone and iPad (and beyond), and we're going to see the first results of Apple's AR implementation later this year when iOS 11 is released and developers launch their AR creations for the iPhone and iPad. However, as exciting as native AR support might sound for the iPhone, you should know that you might have to upgrade your gear to take advantage of it. Apple said on stage at WWDC that ARKit will bring AR to millions of iPhones and iPads. That's all great news, but not all iPhones and iPads are created equal. What Apple did not say on stage but jotted it down in its ARKit documentation online, is that ARKit will only work with Apple A9 and Apple A10 processors. That means AR apps will be compatible with iPhones and iPads released in 2015 or later — think iPhone 6s or iPad Pro. "ARKit runs on the Apple A9 and A10 processors," Apple explains. "These processors deliver breakthrough performance that enables fast scene understanding and lets you build detailed and compelling virtual content on top of real-world scenes." So if you happen to have an iPhone 6, iPhone 5s, iPad Air or even the latest iPod touch, you won't be able to get any AR love once you upgrade them to iOS 11 this fall. Apple doesn't list the incoming A11 processor on its ARKit page as that would obviously confirm its existence. But the processor that will power this year's iPhone will also support AR. In fact, it'll probably be the best mobile chip in town for that.

McCain didn't make much sense while questioning Comey during testimony Posted: 08 Jun 2017 12:00 PM PDT Sen. John McCain confused many while questioning former FBI Director James Comey during his testimony. At one point, McCain even referred to Comey as "President Comey."

Donald Trump's sons Eric and Donald Jr back his barbed attacks on Sadiq Khan Posted: 07 Jun 2017 02:30 AM PDT Donald Trump's sons have defended their father's scathing attack on Sadiq Khan and argued the London Mayor is in denial about the terror attacks which have plagued London in recent months. President Trump sparked heavy criticism for his one-sided Twitter tirade against Mr Khan in the wake of the London Bridge terror attack which left seven dead and dozens injured. In the immediate aftermath, Mr Trump wholly misconstrued quotes from Mr Khan, wrongly claiming the mayor had said there was "no reason to be alarmed" about the risk of terror attacks in London.
