Samsung’s Tab 5Se tablet reportedly loses Wi-Fi if you hold it wrong
Samsung’s latest tablet, the Galaxy Tab S5e, can reportedly lose its Wi-Fi connection if you hold it wrong. SamMobile reports that the problem occurs when you hold the tablet in a landscape orientation with the front-facing camera on the left. For some users this causes a reduction in signal, while others are reporting that their tablet’s Wi-Fi connection disconnects entirely. Holding the tablet in portrait mode or with the camera on the right doesn’t appear to cause the same problem.
The launch of Apple’s iPhone 4 back in 2010 was famously beset by a similar issue. Shortly after launch, people realized that the phone would lose all connectivity if you held it the wrong way. Despite Apple’s claim that the problem affected less than one...

Microsoft’s new Cortana chief outlines the company’s digital assistant vision
Microsoft’s digital assistant has had a tough time recently. After starting off life on Windows Phone, Cortana appeared on Windows 10 PCs and looked set to launch on a range of smart speakers, fridges, toasters, thermostats, and more. While Alexa and Google Assistant have corned this part of the market, Cortana has been left behind, and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella admitted earlier this year that Cortana no longer competes directly with Google Assistant or Alexa. Microsoft has a new vision for Cortana, involving conversational interactions for workers who are organizing their days. I sat down with the new Cortana chief, Andrew Shuman, this week at Microsoft’s Build conference to get an idea for how the company is approaching Cortana in...

Google’s Sundar Pichai snipes at Apple with privacy defense
In an op-ed written for the New York Times, Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai has defended his company’s approach to privacy and user data, responding indirectly to critics who claim the company collects invasive amounts of personal information. Pichai says Google’s approach is to make privacy more democratic. He also called on the US to introduce new legislation protecting users’ data.
In the op-ed, Pichai contrasted Google’s approach to privacy with Apple’s. In a thinly veiled snipe at the iPhone-maker, Pichai said that “privacy cannot be a luxury good” that’s only available to “people who can afford to buy premium products and services.”

Epson’s new augmented reality glasses can plug into your phone
Epson has a new pair of augmented reality glasses on the market — and while they’re not meant for everyday wear, they’re still supposed to be more convenient than their predecessors. The Moverio BT-30C glasses connect to an Android smartphone or a Windows PC over USB-C, unlike earlier Epson Moverio products, which plugged into a custom Android controller box. They cost $499, and they’ll ship in June of this year.
Moverio is a relatively old augmented reality brand; its BT-100 glasses launched in 2011, before Google Glass or the Microsoft HoloLens. The BT-30C glasses couldn’t pass for normal eyewear — they’re chunky and still heavy at 95 grams. They also aren’t as technically sophisticated as the HoloLens or Magic Leap One, which project...

Read Google’s new Nest privacy promise and tell me if you’re swayed
Google wants to be inside your home. It wants to sell you cameras, alarm systems, and voice assistants to make your life — and maybe its targeted advertising business — that much easier. But there’s a problem. People don’t necessarily trust big tech companies or their camera-equipped smart displays right now.
And while Google may not have had a Cambridge Analytica-level scandal on its hands, a couple recent incidents with its Nest division could have given buyers pause: a string of digital break-ins where Nest cameras let strangers deliver fake nuclear bomb threats and spy on babies over the internet (not exaggerating), and the revelation that the Nest Secure alarm system had a secret microphone that buyers never knew about.
So today, as...

EA wants to bring Apex Legends to mobile
Today EA released its quarterly earnings, and unsurprisingly Apex Legends was a big hit. According to EA, the Respawn-developed battle royale game is “easily the fastest-growing franchise we’ve ever had.” What might be surprising, though, is that EA said it’s looking to bring the game from PC and console to mobile platforms. “We are in advanced negotiations to bring Apex Legends to China and to mobile,” the company said during today’s call.
Unfortunately, that’s all the information we have right now. But clearly EA is looking to keep pace with Apex’s biggest competitors, Fortnite and PUBG. Both of those games are available on mobile, though they utilize different strategies. Fortnite is essentially the exact same experience across all...

Game of Thrones fan video imagines a beautiful Arya and the Hound buddy comedy
Game of Thrones is almost over, and while executives at HBO are rushing to work up a spinoff that will ensure HBO Now subscriptions remain mandatory, there’s one obvious take: a buddy adventure story starring Arya Stark and the Hound.
A new fan trailer from Lance Krall, published on Vimeo, sets up an idea of what a series called Arya and The Hound could look like. The style of Krall’s video is similar to what other fan-trailer editors have done over the years with The Avengers cast or going back to the original Shining comedy recut, and this one works just as well. Set to the tune of Jim Croce’s “I Got A Name,” the fake opening credits focus on the duo’s strange, quirky, but totally adorable friendship. There’s Arya learning to kill...

Google reveals it’s working on foldable phone prototypes
Samsung may have just had its first ever, high-profile foldable phone flame out in embarrassing fashion, but that’s not stopping other companies from looking into the technology. Ahead of its I/O developer conference, Google says it’s also looking into foldable tech and has been prototyping foldable displays for quite some time, according to CNET.
“We’re definitely prototyping the technology. We’ve been doing it for a long time,” Mario Queiroz, Google’s Pixel development lead, told CNET last week in an interview. According to Querioz, however, “I don’t think there’s a clear use case yet.”
That means we shouldn’t expect a foldable Pixel any time soon, or maybe ever. “We’re prototyping foldable displays and many other new hardware...

Google is pushing back against ad tracking in Chrome
Today, at the I/O developer conference, Google announced a new way to limit how much advertisers can track you online.

It’s unclear how the new controls will work, and the pending interface was not made available to journalists, but the company described it as a new step in how Chrome protects users’ privacy.
Google is also pushing back against non-cookie tracking techniques like browser fingerprinting, reducing the amount of passive information Chrome provides to sites and taking new steps to fight...

Avengers: Endgame Directors Explain Why Cap Chose Sam And Not Bucky
By the closing scenes of Avengers: Endgame, it became pretty clear that Steve Rogers’ superhero days were over, but in the movie’s final minutes, we see him pass on the Captain America mantel to his buddy Sam Wilson. Though this likely put a smile on the face of those who were pushing for Falcon to inherit the title, it’s probably safe to say that at least as many were hoping that Bucky Barnes would be next to carry the shield.
If you read the comics, you’ll know that there have been multiple people to have wielded the shield in recent years, and given that both Bucky Barnes and Sam Wilson have taken the gig, it could’ve gone either way for their live action counterparts in Endgame. So, why did the Russos choose Sam over Bucky then?
Well, that’s a good question, and in a recent interview, the directors explained their decision as follows:
“Cap and Bucky are brothers but you know what’s interesting about them is they’re very different people and I think that Bucky always has the ability to have his mind corrupted, it can always be taken over by someone else. That hasn’t been resolved for him and Sam has his free will and I think that Sam also had a similar ethic as Cap as far as service goes in the military.”
Continuing on, the pair said:
“Sam still retains that spirit of service to the community and he lives in that circle very clearly in the movies. Comic books and movies are very different and our interpretation of the characters if you’ve been following the movies are very different from what the books are so as it stands in these films, Bucky is still a damaged character who I think feels like he doesn’t want the shield and I think that ultimately Sam is a character with free will who is the closest in morality to what Cap was and Cap believes he deserves it.”
Fair enough, and while Avengers: Endgame finished off with Steve giving up the Captain America persona, it still left the studio with some potential avenues with which to continue the character’s story, thanks to the notion of the alternate timelines and all that. Nonetheless, the next Captain America we see on our screens will probably be the Sam Wilson version, and we’ll find out how he fares in the role when the Falcon and Winter Soldier TV show hits Disney Plus.
That is, unless it’s a prequel. If that’s the case, then we imagine it’ll be a few years yet before we see Sam take on the mantle of Captain America.

Avengers: Endgame Directors Say Cap Was Always Able To Lift Mjolnir
The final battle of Avengers: Endgame was basically one huge hit of fan service, with co-directors Anthony and Joe Russo stuffing it with so many awesome moments that had fans jumping for joy. Be it the heroes all coming through the portals, that all-female team-up scene or Cap finally saying the phrase “Avengers assemble,” it had it all.
Perhaps the most surprising moment though was when Steve Rogers finally proved himself worthy and was able to wield Thor’s hammer, Mjolnir. Sure, he got a squeak out of it back in Avengers: Age of Ultron but here, Cap had complete command of the weapon and used it to summon lightning to zap Thanos.
According to the film’s directors, though, Rogers was always able to hold Mjolnir, even back in Ultron. Yup, that’s right, according to Joe and Anthony, Cap’s been worthy this whole time.
Speaking on the Happy Sad Confused podcast recently, the brothers were asked: ““Why in your heads was [Captain America] not able to wield the hammer until this moment?” To that, they gave an interesting answer, saying: “In our heads, he was [always] able to wield it.”
As Anthony explains, it all goes back to that moment in Age of Ultron, with the director stating:
“He didn’t know that until that moment in Ultron when he tried to pick it up, but Cap’s sense of character and his sort of humility and sort of out of deference to Thor’s ego, Cap in that moment realizing he can move the hammer, decides not to.”
Interesting, and though it was a shame we had to wait so long to see Steve finally pick up that damn weapon, we’re happy that the Russos made it happen in Avengers: Endgame. As we mentioned above, it was a truly great moment and one of the film’s many, many highlights. One that we can’t wait to watch over and over again once the pic hits home video later this summer.

Avengers: Endgame Director Confirms An Important Gay Character’s Coming To The MCU Soon
As well as everything else it did, Avengers: Endgame also broke new ground by featuring the MCU’s first ever openly gay character. During the scene which sees Steve Rogers leading a support group for the survivors of the Snap, an unnamed man played by co-director Joe Russo talks about going on his first date in five years, with it casually mentioned that this date was with another man.
The moment has received a mixed response from fans, with some applauding the Russos for finally doing what the previous 21 films never did while others think the minor character was too little at this late stage and doesn’t warrant celebration. Whatever side of the argument you fall on, it can only be good news that Joe Russo has now confirmed another gay character is coming to the MCU. And this one’s bound to be more significant, as the director expects Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige to make an official announcement about it soon.
“There is a gay character coming up in one of their films. I think Kevin [Feige] will make that announcement, I’m sure, pretty soon.”
Those keeping up with their MCU news will know that Russo must be talking about the lead of The Eternals, Chloe Zhao’s film starring Angelina Jolie and Richard Madden. We’ve heard that Marvel’s looking for a gay actor of Asian descent to play the franchise’s first LGBT lead character, and while Russo’s cameo was a step in the right direction, this is much more what the fans are calling out for. Thankfully, it sounds like we might get additional info on the character in a short while.
We hope that Russo’s comment about a single gay character coming to the franchise soon doesn’t just mean that this Eternals lead is the extent of Marvel’s plans for LGBT representation in the MCU, though. After all, Feige has promised on multiple occasions that diversity is the name of the game post-Avengers: Endgame, so let’s hope he follows through on that.
