Jared Mauch, the Michigan man who built a fiber-to-the-home Internet provider because he couldn't get good broadband service from AT&T or Comcast, is expanding with the help of $2.6 million in government money. When we wrote about Mauch in January 2021 , he was providing service to about 30 rural homes including his own with his ISP, Washtenaw Fiber Properties LLC. Mauch now has about 70 customers and will extend his network to nearly 600 more properties with money from the American Rescue Plan's Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds , he told Ars in a phone interview in mid-July. The US government allocated Washtenaw County $71 million for a variety of infrastructure projects, and the county devoted a portion to broadband. The county conducted a broadband study before the pandemic to identify unserved locations, Mauch said. When the federal government money became available, the county issued a request for proposals (RFP) seeking contractors to wire up … [Read more...] about Man who built ISP instead of paying Comcast $50K expands to hundreds of homes

Vitamins are crucial for building, repairing and maintaining healthy tissues and cells, and vitamin A is particularly important for vision, skin and bones. Also known as retinol (because it produces the pigments in the retina of the eye), vitamin A is a fat-soluble nutrient. This means it’s absorbed into the body with dietary fat, and then stored in body tissue for later use. Taking big doses of vitamin A can be toxic, but your body only converts as much as it needs. You can get vitamin A naturally from foods or take it in supplement form. It has several functions, from helping the body’s immune system to fight against illness and infection, to supporting healthy vision, teeth, skin and skeletal and soft tissue. Good sources of vitamin A include cheese, eggs, oily fish, milk, yogurt and liver (although you should avoid liver if pregnant). You can also get vitamin A by consuming plant sources of beta-carotene – found in leafy veg and yellow fruit such as mango, papaya and apricots … [Read more...] about Vitamin A: Sources, benefits & deficiency

Samsung is throwing itself a party tomorrow with a couple of guests of honor: its foldable phones. We’ll likely see some updated watches and earbuds , but really, it’s a birthday party for the Z Fold and the Z Flip. They’ve been around for years now, but last August was when they really hit their stride with the most mainstream models yet. We’re probably not going to see any dramatic upgrades or shocking price drops this year because Samsung doesn’t need to produce any of those thrills. It owns the foldable phone category, and it likely will for some time. It’s a foldable party with a guest list of one: Samsung. Lest we forget, early iterations of the Fold and Flip were a little half-baked: awkward, too expensive, and not durable enough. But they got better. Last year’s Z Flip 3 and Z Fold 3 felt almost normal, with robust water resistance and better usability. Meanwhile, the rest of Samsung’s competitors seem to be stuck on early design iterations or not showing up at all. … [Read more...] about Samsung’s all alone at the foldable party

It's time for a new round of Samsung foldables. The Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 are official . Both devices hit stores on August 26, and the prices haven't changed from last year: It's $1,799 for the Fold 4 and $999 for the Flip 4 . The Z Fold 4—the one that opens up like a tablet—is getting a few millimeters wider this year, and it has a 6.2-inch, 120 Hz, 2316×904 outer OLED display. The Z Fold 3's outer display had a skinny 25:9 aspect ratio, but the Fold 4's is at 23.1:9, getting closer to a normal 19:9 aspect ratio. The inner display is wider, too—it's a 7.6-inch, 2176×1812, 120 Hz OLED display. The device's thickness hasn't really changed—when open, the phone is 6.3 mm thick, and it's 15.8 mm thick when folded up, thanks to the hinge gap. Other specs include a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, 12GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, and a 4400 mAh battery with 25 W charging. Samsung puts the dust and water ingress rating at "IPX8," meaning there's no dust resistance, but the device is … [Read more...] about The Galaxy Z Fold 4 is official, brings Android 12L’s new taskbar

President Joe Biden personally drove the new electric F-150 Lightning on Tuesday during a visit to a Ford plant in Dearborn, Michigan. “We let him drive himself,” a Ford executive told reporters as the president drove by reporters on a testing track. The president accelerated quickly and pulled up to reporters and rolled down the window of the pickup to talk to them. “This sucker’s quick,” he said.

I would.” The new all-electric F-150 pickup is estimated to start at $70,000 with fully loaded packages costing as much as $100,000. The pickup had several taped-up sections to help preserve the styling and design … [Read more...] about Secret Service Allows Joe Biden to Drive Electric F-150

Editor's take: Broadcom was once a leading semiconductor company, and then it started buying enterprise software companies. The finance people recognize Broadcom for it is, and while the technology people recognize it as well, they just do not want to accept it. And we cannot blame them for that sentiment. Broadcom began its existence as a spin-off of a spin-off. Twenty years or so ago, Hewlett Packard began its process of miniaturization. First spinning off Agilent which contained a hodgepodge of businesses that were not related to PCs or printers. Agilent in turn split itself into several more pieces, one of which was HP's one-time internal chip business, rechristened as Avago. We followed Avago closely for many years as sell-side analysts. Buried deep inside HP, we knew it sold filters that went into mobile phones and would occasionally provide some really interesting, but obscure piece of information. Then the spin-off happened. Editor's Note: Jonathan Goldberg is the … [Read more...] about What has Broadcom become?

TL;DR: Twitter acknowledged a data breach that may have unmasked pseudonymous user accounts. While it didn't float any actual numbers, previous reports indicated a vulnerability exposed more than 5.4 million Twitter IDs and associated phone numbers and email addresses. Twitter patched the security hole in January, but a "bad actor" claims he used it the month before to scrape the data. Last week, Twitter confirmed that hackers had compromised some accounts on its platform. Developers created the flaw with a June 2021 update for its Android client, that allowed a bad actor to associate user accounts with email addresses and phone numbers. Twitter learned of the vulnerability through its bug bounty program in January 2022 and patched it immediately thinking that nobody had been affected. However, last month BleepingComputer reported it had found a database on a hacker forum containing the phone numbers and email addresses associated with over 5.4 million Twitter accounts. … [Read more...] about Twitter shut down a major security flaw but not before a hacker exposed 5.4 million users

Shares for Amazon, Alphabet, and Microsoft are way up Thursday evening following huge sales figures reported for the previous quarter. Shares for Alphabet, the holding company for Google, jumped to over $1,000 after the company reported 24% growth over last three months. Amazon's sales rose a whopping 34% which pushed its shares up over $1,000 as well. Microsoft's sales were up 12% from the previous year which was also good news for investors. Their stock jumped 3% to an all-time-high above $82. Alphabet's profits grew from $5.6 billion to $7.8 billion with most of that coming from Google, of course. YouTube in particular has seen rapid growth with Google estimating that 1.5 billion people spend an average of one hour per day watching content. Alphabet's "Other Bets" like Waymo and Project Loon have also seen strong growth as well. Despite Amazon's growth, their profits have remained largely flat. This is due to their massive reinvestment in data centers, media content, and other … [Read more...] about Leading tech stocks surge following strong growth numbers

Cupertino-företaget slösar ingen tid, nästa generations chip från Apple tillkännages bara åtta månader efter M1 Pro, M1 Max och M1 Ultra och kommer att finnas i de senaste MacBooks. Apple M2 verkar vara ett bra stycke arkitektoniskt arbete, som förbättras i de flesta avseenden jämfört med Apple M1 , som för närvarande sitter i gamla MacBook Air, MacBook Pro 13" (2020) och Apple Mac mini.
