iOS 13 might not work on your iPhone
When we listed the best new features of iOS 12 back when it was first released to the public this past September, compatibility was at the top of the list. Of course things like speed improvements and battery life gains were fantastic, but the fact that iOS 12 didn’t push a single iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch model into obsolescence was incredible. Every single device that was capable of running iOS 11 was also capable of running iOS 12. This meant that all of those fantastic new features and all of those security enhancements were accessible to the widest possible number of Apple devices, even ones that were released as far back as 2013.
Sadly, all good things must come to an end, and iOS 12’s compatibility with all modern devices was the exception to the rule. Now, a new report claims that six different iPhone and iPad models will be made obsolete by the upcoming iOS 13 update, including some of the most popular iPhone models in recent history.

I don’t even care who wins the ‘Game of Thrones’
With just two episodes left in the final season of Game of Thrones and absolutely nothing to suggest that the train wreck we’ve seen so far this season is going to get any better, I’m now comfortable calling the show’s official time of death: 10:10PM ET on August 27th, 2017, when season 7’s finale drew to an end. Season 8 has been a travesty from start to finish, with the action that took place during the epic battle in “The Long Night” having provided the only watchable moments of the entire season so far. This season hasn’t just been disappointing, it has been laughably and unfathomably bad in every conceivable way.
Game of Thrones was once the most complete show on television. It had everything, from jaw-dropping production value and mind-blowing twists and turns, to incredible writing and phenomenal acting. The character arcs through the first seven seasons of the show were absolutely brilliant — there were heroic characters we loved, dastardly characters we hated, and viewers couldn’t wait to see how all of their stories developed. Now, I couldn’t care less what happens to any of the characters on the show. It has devolved into an embarrassing medieval soap opera with some of the worst writing I have ever seen. I’m not sure I have ever hate-watched anything so hard in my life.

Google is finally ready to talk openly about the mysterious new OS that might replace Android
We’ve been talking for a few years about Google’s mysterious operating system meant to replace Android, Chrome, and whatever Android-derived operating systems Google has running on its smart devices. We’ve seen the first demos leak, we read reports about is development, and we saw Google start deploying the software development kit that will allow developers to code universal apps that will run on Android, iOS, computer operating system, and — of course — Fuchsia.
Fuchsia is what we’ve been told we should call this mysterious operating system that will not only run on everything made by Google, but it’ll also fix some of the worst things about Android, including fragmentation, update speed, and privacy. But Google is finally talking about Fuchsia, the Android slayer that was promised — and they call it Fuchsia too.

Samsung insider says Galaxy Note 10 won’t get an exciting camera upgrade
Samsung still has to deal with the fallout of its biggest flop since the Galaxy Note 7, though the Galaxy Fold disaster isn’t as big in scope. The company is also working on a bunch of new products. The next big thing is, of course, the Galaxy Note 10 that should be unveiled in less than three months, a phone that’s been detailed in several reports so far. The phone is expected to look a lot like the Galaxy S10 series when it comes to design, although it’ll still pack the Note’s remaining signature feature, the inclusion of the S Pen stylus. Recent rumors claimed that Samsung will make two distinct Note 10 version, and each one will also ship in a 5G variety. On top of that, the phone is expected to feature an improved display design, according to a leaker, as well as support for faster battery charging than ever before. However, the same leaker now claims that an exciting camera upgrade coming from Samsung’s image sensor department won’t hit the Galaxy Note 10 series.

Michigan man busted for selling over $1 million worth of illegal kratom across the U.S.
Who says crime doesn’t pay? For 36-year-old Matthew Dailey of Royal Oak, Michigan, crime most certainly did pay, and for quite a while. That ended this week when he was forced to forfeit $1,000,000 of the proceeds he had collected from selling kratom across the United States.
Dailey, who reportedly deceived the FDA and other authorities long enough to import several tons of the illegal plant-based substance to his Michigan home where he repackaged and sold it as a cure for everything from chronic pain to Lyme disease. His products, which were sold online to buyers across the country, made him a millionaire in short order.

Your next Delta flight may offer free Wi-Fi
Spotty Wi-Fi that also costs too much is often among the more frequent complaints of an airline’s customers, which is why you’re starting to see air carriers experiment a bit with how they make the amenity available. JetBlue may be the only US airline that currently lets flyers enjoy free Wi-Fi, but Delta is about to follow suit with an experiment that starts next week in which the Atlanta-based airline will offer free Wi-Fi on 55 domestic flights.
