%name A laptop filled with the most dangerous malware in the world is up for auction by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

People auction off rare and incredible works of art every day, but this is one of the most unique auctions we have ever seen. An artist by the name of Guo O Dong collaborated with cybersecurity company Deep Instinct to load a Windows XP laptop with six of the most dangerous pieces of malware the world has ever seen, and now the laptop will be sold to the highest bidder, with the current bid set at an astounding $1,200,749.

Appropriately titled ‘The Persistence of Chaos,’ the art project is composed of a 2008 Samsung NC10-14GB 10.2-inch laptop running Windows XP Service Pack 3, a power cord, a restart script, and the aforementioned malware. In order to keep the malware from spreading, the laptop has been “isolated and airgapped.”

%name Charge your iPhone three times faster with these two accessories by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Marvel might bring Deadpool to the MCU with Spider-Man’s help

%name Marvel might bring Deadpool to the MCU with Spider Man’s help by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Avengers: Endgame is history and Spider-Man: Far From Home will conclude the third phase of Marvel Cinematic Universe films. Marvel and Disney will soon announce their plans for Phase 4 — we already know the dates of several upcoming MCU movies, although we don’t have the actual titles of those future movies. Separately, Disney is prepping a variety of MCU-based Disney+ shows that will star some of the actors we’re used to seeing in Avengers films. On top of that, Disney has just completed its Fox purchase, which means Marvel Studios has the rights to explore several additional Marvel properties, including X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Deadpool.

Of all the existing Marvel projects at Fox, only Deadpool has been kept in place — and now we’re finally getting the Deadpool-MCU news we’ve been dreaming of. A rumor says that Marvel is exploring ways to bring the Merc with a Mouth to the MCU, including one that involves Wade Wilson partnering with Peter Parker.

Apple and Huawei are both set to launch new flagships in the second half of the year, including the iPhone 11 and Huawei Mate 30 that will launch in September, and October, respectively. Huawei might be dealing with a huge headache right now as its ability to do business has been seriously hit by the Trump ban, but it’s likely that the Mate 30 launch will proceed as scheduled. When the iPhone 11 and Mate 30 do launch, they’ll pack the fastest processors of the year, with Apple’s A13 likely to be the more powerful of the two.

The FDA just approved a baby-saving drug that carries an obscene $2.1 million price tag

%name The FDA just approved a baby saving drug that carries an obscene $2.1 million price tag by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

You can’t put a price on life, but that isn’t stopping Swiss drugmaker Novartis from trying. The company just scored approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for a new treatment that could save the lives of hundreds of babies born in the United States each year. That is, as long as their parents’ pockets are deep enough.

As NPR reports, the medication, called Zolgensma, treats a condition called spinal muscular atrophy, a genetic defect that causes a rapid deterioration in nerves that control muscles. Babies stricken with the condition lose the ability to control their limbs, and eventually weaken to the point where they can’t eat or even breathe. The drug that could save their lives with a one-time treatment is now priced at a jaw-dropping $2.125 million.

The Galaxy S10 might be one of the best Android phones out there right now, but it’s only as good as the software it runs. And if you’ve installed Samsung’s big Android latest update, then you might be dealing with a few annoying issues right now, including a bug that freezes the phone, requiring a restart or even forcing a reboot on its own.

Samsung released the update a few days ago, with version XXU1ASE5 packing a few camera improvements as well as the May 2019 security patch from Google. In other words, it’s an update you definitely need. However, it’s also one that you should postpone for as long as possible if you haven’t installed it yet, so that Samsung can fix the issues that have been plaguing users.
