OnePlus will introduce three brand new OnePlus 7 phones in less than two weeks, but we already think we know almost everything there is to know about these devices. That’s because every OnePlus phone release is preceded by a mixture of leaks and early announcements, and the OnePlus 7 is no different. OnePlus already told the world about several of the new features that will be found in the upcoming handset. They explained the new screen tech in the OnePlus 7 Pro, and we already have an early review of the phone’s new triple-lens camera system. This brings us to the latest OnePlus 7 leak, which reveals Geekbench benchmark test scores for the OnePlus 7 Pro.

Tim Cook knows Apple TV+ won’t compete with Netflix, and he says it’s not supposed to

%name Tim Cook knows Apple TV+ won’t compete with Netflix, and he says it’s not supposed to by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Apple in late March unveiled its brand new Apple TV platform, which includes support for several stand-alone streaming apps, as well as its own Netflix-rival, Apple TV+. Weeks later, Disney came out with its own streaming service, Disney+, which will launch later this year. Unlike Apple, Disney actually revealed the price of its upcoming streaming package, a price that makes Disney+ extremely appealing. Add to that Amazon, HBO, Hulu, and YouTube, and it’s pretty clear the streaming wars are well underway. Apple, however, doesn’t see it that way, saying that it can coexist with the likes of Netflix, which is easily the most popular streaming platform in the world right now.

You probably missed one of the best easter eggs in ‘Avengers: Endgame’

%name You probably missed one of the best easter eggs in ‘Avengers: Endgame’ by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Avengers: Endgame needed only a few days in theaters to shatter all expectations, as well as many box office records. With a global haul of $1.2 billion after its first five days in theaters, Endgame is Marvel’s biggest movie to date, and it’ll likely make even more money by the time its theatrical run ends. The fact that many fans will want to see it a second time will help, and that’s understandable considering all the details that Marvel packed in the movie.

There are so many Easter eggs and callbacks to previous Marvel films that it’s very likely you’ll miss some of them, including a few crucial ones. One of them concerns Captain America, and it might provide a clue about the future of the MCU. But before we get into it, I’ll warn you that several spoilers will follow.

Amazon’s AirPods 2 sale is over, but 1st-gen AirPods are just as good and they’re $12 off

%name Amazon’s AirPods 2 sale is over, but 1st gen AirPods are just as good and they’re $12 off by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Apple’s AirPods 2 true wireless earbuds got their first price discount last week, but that deal is now over. If you missed it though, it’s not really such a big deal. The only noteworthy change between the first-gen and second-gen model is the addition of “Hey Siri” support, and not everyone cares about that. The sound quality is exactly the same in both models, so save yourself some money by picking up a pair of First-Generation Apple AirPods with Charging Case on Amazon at a discount.

Apple AirPods with Charging Case (Previous Model): $147.00

Here are the key details from the product description:

  • Amazingly easy to use, AirPods combine intelligent design with breakthrough technology and crystal clear sound.
  • Get up to 5 hours of listening time on one charge.
  • Or up to 3 hours with just a 15-minute charge in the charging case.

NASA bought junk aluminum in a 19-year scam that cost the agency over $700 million

%name NASA bought junk aluminum in a 19 year scam that cost the agency over $700 million by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

NASA is staffed with some of the brightest minds in engineering, astronomy, and mathematics. You wouldn’t expect anyone to even attempt to pull the wool over the agency’s eyes — much less get away with it — but that’s exactly what one company managed to do for nearly two decades.

A new report from the U.S. Justice Department reveals that a company by the name of Sapa Profiles (now Hydro Extrusion Portland) falsified tests to make their products appear to be, well, not total garbage. But they were total garbage, and the faulty metal is now being blamed for a pair of high-profile failures that cost NASA hundreds of millions of dollars.

Google Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL full specs leak ahead of official reveal

%name Google Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL full specs leak ahead of official reveal by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Once again, a major smartphone vendor will have virtually nothing left to reveal at its reveal event, as Google’s mid-range Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL smartphones have leaked in full this week. First, courtesy of Max J., we got a look at the retail packaging for the Pixel 3a XL on Tuesday night, then on Wednesday morning, the same source shared the most complete list of specifications for each phone that we have seen on the internet to date.

As expected, these are lower-specced devices than the 2018 flagships that Google launched in the fall. Having had limited success competing with the likes of Samsung and Apple, it appears that Google is going to attempt to court a different crowd with a significantly more affordable device, but from a brand they know well.
