The more powerful our mobile devices become, the more frequently we’re seeing full console games make their way over to our phones and tablets. There’s often some fanfare when a major console game is ported to mobile, like when Fortnite first hit mobile app stores. But the latest port came as a total surprise, as thatgamecompany’s Journey, which first launched on PS3 back in 2012, arrived on the App Store without warning this week.

Journey is an adventure game with some light puzzle elements that encourages players to meet and interact with one another as they run and glide across a vast desert. From the stunning visuals to the beautiful score, Journey was one of the more impactful indie games of the generation and should be a perfect fit for mobile.

We’re just hours away from the official reveal of Samsung’s Galaxy Note 10 line, but any secrets the company had managed to keep under wraps for this long were seemingly exposed on Tuesday. Not only did we get a close-up live shot of both the Note 10 and Note 10+ sitting next to one another, but Droid Life also shared a series of documents showing off the phones’ designs and spoiling many of the new features.

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

Pretend, for a moment, that you’re one of the first travelers taking a trip to Mars. What would be on your mind? Surely the journey itself will be stressful, and you’ll probably be juggling a number of things in your brain every waking second, not to mention worrying about what life will be like when you finally arrive on the Red Planet.

A new study published in the journal eNeuro suggests that these totally reasonable anxieties may be boosted by radiation exposure during the flight through space, raising concerns over human suitability for deep-space missions.

Yay, Apple’s iPhones from the past few years all support lightning-fast wireless charging that can refuel your iPhone from 0% to 80% in under an hour! Boo, Apple cheaped out and didn’t actually include a fast charger in the box with any of its iPhones. In fact, Apple didn’t even give you the cable you’ll need. It’s super lame that Apple skimps on things that would dramatically improve the user experience for its customers, and then it has the audacity to charge another $50 for the adapter and cable you need to fast charge. Sheesh! Instead of coughing up even more cash at the Apple store after you’ve already paid hundreds or even over $1,000 for your iPhone, just pick up a AUKEY USB C Charger on Amazon for $19.99 and an Anker USB C to Lightning Cable for $15.99.

Apple will provide jailbroken iPhones to researchers investigating iOS security

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

A report a few months ago revealed there’s a booming black market for developer iPhones that can be used to hunt down undiscovered iOS vulnerabilities. While they cost thousands of dollars each, the investment might be worth it to hackers looking to sell their iPhone security-cracking discoveries to the highest bidder.

Apple is quick to patch new vulnerabilities, but the company wants to expedite the process. To do so, Apple will reportedly provide security researchers iPhones similars to the ones being sold on the black market. These jailbroken devices are supposed to make it easier for devs to figure out iOS code issues and report them back to Apple before hackers get a chance to abuse the same holes.

Dogs are man’s best friend, but their mouths aren’t the most sterile things in the world. In fact, a dog’s mouth can be downright disgusting, and an Ohio woman just found that out in the worst possible way.

As CNN reports, Marie Trainer began feeling ill shortly after she arrived home from a vacation to the Dominican Republic. Her sickness, first believed to be something she caught during her tropical adventure, was actually a devastating infection likely caused by her own canine companion.

Did the director of ‘Deadpool 2’ just confirm ‘Deadpool 3’ is in the making at Marvel?

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

Marvel a few weeks ago unveiled its entire MCU Phase 4 lineup, including several movies and TV series that will be launched at regular intervals over the course of the next 2 years. Notable absences from its list include several of Marvel’s most popular franchises like Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Spider-Man. But Marvel also confirmed it’s developing other MCU adventures that will be part of the upcoming fifth phase, including sequels for Captain Marvel and Black Panther, as well as the third Guardians film. Unfortunately, the Deadpool franchise wasn’t addressed at Comic-Con, even though Marvel said that projects based on Fantastic Four and X-Men are in development.

Deadpool is technically a part of the X-Men franchise, so that can be interpreted as a sort of confirmation. But then Ryan Reynolds stepped up to brilliantly troll Deadpool fans by suggesting the third installment in the series might be included in Phase 5. Now, we have new info that suggests Marvel’s Deadpool 3 might be very different from what we’ve seen in the past.
