All three 2019 iPhones will feature 12-megapixel front-facing TrueDepth cameras, up from 7-megapixels on the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR, according to the latest research note from well-known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. The note, obtained by MacRumors, adds that the next iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max models with 5.8-inch and 6.5-inch OLED displays respectively will feature triple-lens rear cameras, including a 12-megapixel telephoto lens, 12-megapixel wide-angle lens, and a 12-megapixel supe...

When Jaimie Florio was 19 weeks pregnant, doctors discovered that her baby was tinier than normal. It was like he was 17 weeks not 19. They ran tests to try to understand why, but the results provided no answers. And baby Connor’s development seemed as if it almost stopped. “His growth was really slowing. They kept telling me he needed to be 500 grams — which is about a pound — to be viable,” Florio, 29 of Danbury, Connecticut told TODAY. “He was nowhere near there. I knew we needed ...

Teased in the post-credits scene of Avenger: Infinity War, Captain Marvel blew up in her own film, to the tune of $1 billion worldwide, before her return as the ultimate weapon in the fight against in Avengers: Endgame. During a press conference last weekend in Los Angeles, moderator Jon Favreau described Brie Larson's Carol Danvers as the "designated hitter" of the team, brought in at the bottom of the ninth inning during the World Series

Uber filed to go public on Thursday, dumping a 300-page prospectus on potential investors about its sprawling $11.3 billion business empire. Bloomberg's Shira Ovide described it as the "most complex S-1 I've ever read." Among the revelations contained in this tome were details of Uber's love/hate relationship with former CEO Travis Kalanick, revelations about who's going to get rich when Uber joins Wall Street, insight on its battle to maintain drivers as contractor...

Scientists have suspected that the phenomena of the longtime pattern of fluctuating freezing temperatures and warm seasons that suddenly changed a million years ago and the ice ages appeared to last longer and be more dramatic. Somehow this event was related to a shutdown of a key of Atlantic Ocean current system that is repeatedly slowing.

When NASA launched the Mars projects of the early 2000s, its missions were guided by a central theme known as “Follow the Water.” The basic idea is that if humans are to colonize Mars, they’ll need to have water to drink. Ideally, that water would come from Mars itself, which overflowed with rivers three billion years ago. But now, researchers report in Nature Geoscience that water remains on the Red Planet, hidden in unexpected locations deep underground.

Archeologists believe they have found a rare Viking ship burial site in a region of Norway known for its Viking-era treasures, Norwegian officials said Monday. Using ground-penetrating radar (GPR), experts found a ship-shaped anomaly near other Viking burial mounds in the Borre Park in Vestfold county, southeast of Oslo. "The GPR data clearly show the shape of a ship, and we can see weak traces of a circular depression around the vessel.

Gamers under the age of 18 have to take regular breaks or face diminishing returns after three hours of playing 'Fortnite.'

Customer cancellation and churn is a fact of doing business for SVODs like Netflix, but a new study suggests that many subscribers aren’t leaving SVODs on purpose. “Involuntary cancellation” is a serious problem for SVODs operating in the U.S. and the U.K., according to a recent study by Amdocs-owned Vindicia and commissioned from analyst firm nScreenMedia. The “involuntary” nature of these cancellations is typically due to payment failures that occur due to credit card problems like i...

Just when all my childhood dreams seemed to have come true, I nearly lost my mind and then my life. I’ve never told this story publicly, but now it’s time. It was the beginning of 2011. I had just finished filming the first season of “Game of Thrones,” a new HBO series based on George R. R. Martin’s “A Song of Ice and Fire” novels. With almost no professional experience behind me, I’d been given the role of Daenerys Targaryen, also known as Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, Lady o...

Tech has a bad reputation for pulling money out of musicians’ pockets, but Splice is changing that. The audio sample marketplace and music production collaboration tool has now paid out $15 million to artists since 2013, doubling in the last year. Splice lets musicians sell their sounds for royalty-free use, and songs by Eminem, Ariana Grande and Marshmello that were powered by those samples have topped the charts.

A study that examined older Americans’ well-being before and after medical marijuana laws were passed in their state found reductions in reported pain and increased hours worked. The study, co-written by researchers at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Temple University, suggests medical marijuana laws could be improving older Americans’ health.

Hanging in the Louvre Museum in Paris is an imposing painting, The Preaching of St Paul at Ephesus. In this 1649 work by Eustache Le Sueur, the fiery apostle lifts his right hand as if scolding the audience, while clutching a book of scripture in his left. Among the rapt or fearful listeners are people busily throwing books into a fire. Look carefully, and you see geometric images on some of the pages.

In recent years, advances in AI have produced algorithms for everything from image recognition to instantaneous translation. But when it comes to applying these advances in the real world, we’re only just getting started. A new product from Nvidia announced today at GTC — a $99 AI computer called the Jetson Nano — should help speed that process.

The iPad mini and iPad Air Apple quietly announced ahead of its big March event will come with eSIM support. Cupertino's latest iPad Pros have eSIM support, as well, but these new entries are the first non-Pro models with the feature. While the Apple SIM works similarly -- and present in older non-Pro iPads -- it's only compatible with the tech giant's partner carriers. By giving these devices eSIM support, they'll be able to work even on the networks of non-partner carriers.

A whopping 71 percent of Americans don’t trust autonomous cars to drive them around, according to a new survey by AAA. And it looks like the most famous man in America stands with the 71 percent. President Donald Trump has said, “I don’t trust some computer to drive me around,” according to a new report from Axios.

Filmmaker Aaron Kunkel fashions an absorbing true-crime narrative with a danceable beat from the testimonies of exploited pop celebrities, bilked investors, criminal investigators, and not-so-quietly aghast onlookers in “The Boy Band Con: The Lou Pearlman Story.” Briskly efficient in its construction and execution, the film focuses on the high times and low dealings of the Orlando, Florida-based music impresario and Ponzi scheme swindler, Lou Pearlman, who famously launched the groups *NSYNC...

Our state of arousal--being fearful, agitated, or calm--can significantly affect our ability to make optimal decisions, judgments, and actions in real-world dynamic environments. Imagine, for instance, walking across a balance beam. Your performance--speed across the beam and the odds of making it across without falling off--are dramatically better if the beam sits a mere six inches off the ground and you are relaxed rather than terror-stricken on a beam 60 feet higher.
