Choosing a wireless security camera system for your home used to be difficult because there are so many options out there. Ever since Anker released its eufyCam E Wireless Home Security Camera System, however, the decision couldn’t be easier. These fantastic wireless home security cameras have crystal clear 1080p resolution and they’re weatherproof, so you can install them indoors and outdoors. While Arlo cameras typically last for 2 or 3 months per charge, the eufyCam E lasts for a remarkable 365 days before you need to change the batteries or up to 3 full years in standby mode. The eufyCam E doesn’t have any subscription fees because it stores recordings on a microSD card which can hold up to one year’s worth of footage.

The included base station packs a nice loud siren that can be configured to sound when the system is armed and a predefined trigger is tripped. eufy also offers Security Entry Sensors for $29.99 each that feature incredible 2-year battery life and can be installed on any door or window in seconds. This way you can trigger alerts or even the siren when the system is armed and a door or window is opened. Best of all, since the camera stores security footage on an included 16-gigabyte microSD card (expandable up to 128 GB), there are no monthly fees whatsoever with the eufyCam E system.

The 3-camera system that includes eufy’s base station and 3 wireless home security cameras retails for $560, but right now it’s on sale for just $420 if you use the coupon code BGRCAMEE at checkout. This is a limited-time deal though, so you should definitely hurry if you don’t want to miss out!

Samsung might do something it’s never done before with the Galaxy Note 10

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Samsung just announced the official pricing and release date for its new Galaxy S10 5G. The other three S10 models — Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10, and Galaxy S10+ — are already available for sale in every major market, and the upcoming Galaxy Fold is set to finally hit store shelves on April 26th. That leaves one more big flagship smartphone launch for Samsung in 2019, and the Galaxy Note 10 is shaping up to be the company’s most impressive handset of the year.

Everything we’ve seen from Samsung so far in 2019 has been quite impressive, actually. The bold new design on the Galaxy S10 series is a breath of fresh air compared to last year’s Galaxy S9, which was boring and uninspired. Thankfully, the S10 sports a wonderful all-screen design and it’s packed full of nifty new features. Then there’s the Galaxy Fold, which the company had been teasing for years before it was finally unveiled back in February. The design isn’t quite as impressive as what we’ve seen from Chinese smartphone makers like Huawei and Xiaomi, but Samsung’s first smartphone with a foldable screen will definitely still turn heads when it’s released later this month. As great as all those phones are though, the Galaxy Note 10 may end up being the cream of Samsung’s crop in 2019. Now, a new report suggests that Samsung will change up its Galaxy Note strategy this year and do something it has never done before with the upcoming Galaxy Note 10.

Huge ‘Avengers: Endgame’ spoilers tease controversial ending and heartbreaking superhero deaths

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

We only have to wait a little over three weeks until Avengers: Endgame hits theaters around the world, at which point we’ll finally know exactly what happened after the snap. Who died for real in Infinity War? Who will be resurrected? What superheroes will sacrifice themselves to defeat Thanos? These are only some of the questions that need answering in Avengers 4. What we do know for certain is that we’ll see in Endgame the only way the Avengers win, “whatever it takes.” We already have plenty of fan theories attempting to guess the plot of the film, as well as various leaks that tease heartbreaking events for some of our favorite characters. None of that can be confirmed at this time, however, as nobody involved in the Infinity War films will talk spoilers. Even so, with each day that gets us closer to the film’s release, more information about Endgame leaks online, and we happen to have collected even more tidbits about the next MCU blockbuster. Some of them seem to confirm previous spoilers, while others contradict them. In any case, be warned that, if real, the following information will spoil Endgame for you to some degree.

A top insider just leaked the first solid details about Apple’s 2020 iPhones

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

It’s still just early April, which means we have many moons to wait until the 2019 iPhones arrive. Apple is expected to keep in place the same designs for the iPhone XS and XR successors, although all three models should pack various upgrades when it comes to hardware and camera features. Next year, however, Apple is also expected to deliver a new iPhone design, and while it’s too early to speculate on what the 2020 iPhones will look like, we already have one reason to be excited about them.

NASA discovers Saturn’s moons are caked in ring dust

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

NASA’s Cassini spacecraft has long since bitten the proverbial dust, but data it sent back years ago is now revealing how actual dust affects some of the planet’s many moons. As NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory explains in a new blog post, Saturn’s iconic rings tend to litter some of its moons with a variety of material, coating them as they drift in orbit around the planet.

The researchers focused on a handful of moons that exist close to or within the planet’s rings. The moons Atlas, Epimetheus, Pandora, Daphnis, and Pan are much smaller than the planet’s larger moons like the icy Enceladus, but in many ways they’re just as interesting.

Leaked PS5 controller and devkit are likely fake, but pretty convincing

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Smartphone leaks have become so common in recent years that the big players in the industry, including Apple and Samsung, rarely have anything to actually unveil by the time their keynotes roll around. We knew about all four of the Galaxy S10 models before Samsung announced them in February, and the iPhone XS and XS Max were thoroughly spoiled as well before they arrived last fall. Video game consoles, on the other hand, aren’t quite as prone to leaking, which is why we’re taking one of the most convincing PS5 leaks to date with a grain of salt.

Discovering planets that nobody has ever seen before is even harder than it sounds. Space telescopes from NASA and other scientific bodies have gathered an incredible amount of data that will take astronomers years and years to sift through, and many times there’s just nothing there to be found.

But humans don’t have to do all of the work, and Anne Dattilo, a senior at the University of Texas in Austin enlisted the help of artificial intelligence to study data from NASA’s Kepler space telescope and found not one, but two new exoplanets in the process.

Google downplays the number of ‘potentially harmful apps’ on the Play Store

In a new report looking back over 2018, a year in which Google celebrated the 10th anniversary of the launch of the first commercial Android device, the search giant gives itself a pat on the back for what appears to be an impressive milestone. The company’s newly released year in review of its Android security efforts declares that the company’s increasing crackdown on what it calls “potentially harmful apps,” or PHAs, is continuing to pay off. How much? Less than half of 1% of all app downloads from the Google Play Store in 2018 were given that PHA classification.

Of course, as with any such analysis, some context and caveats are in order.

Facebook will finally start explaining its choices for your News Feed

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

One of the least understood and arguably most disliked features of the Facebook user experience is the social network’s all-important, algorithmically-sorted News Feed. For the vast majority of users who don’t take the time to proactively “tune” their feed, it can often seem like a haphazard mishmash of forgettable photos, political rants, ads they don’t care about and status updates from friends they haven’t seen in years. Which is a shame, from Facebook’s perspective at any rate, since the News Feed is so core to how people interact with the largest social network in the world.

And even though the reasoning behind why certain posts get ranked high in the News Feed, and why some don’t even get surfaced at all, has baffled and confounded users for years, Facebook has now finally decided to start explaining itself. Specifically, why the feed shows you what it does.
