This is the MacBook Pro hub that Apple should have made

13 mins ago

Apple’s solution to the new MacBook Pro‘s lack of conventional ports is dongles. A lot of dongles. $250 of dongles, actually.

But if you’re not a fan of carrying around a bunch of white pieces of floppy plastic, there are other options (apart from buying a different computer, I mean). The most visually appealing is the Arc Hub, a new concept that sticks all the ports you’ll ever need into an elegant circular hub.

Despite the fact that just looking at it makes Jony Ive’s dulcet tones appear inside my head, it’s not actually designed by Apple. Instead, it’s been conceived by a tiny Californian startup you’ve probably never heard of.

People are paying truly stupid amounts of money for Snapchat Spectacles

In 1759 Adam Smith, the father of modern economics, wrote that an “invisible hand” guides supply and demand, creating an equilibrium that advances the interests of society.

Well, in 2016, that invisible hand appears to be jerking us around. Exhibit A: people spending $2,300 on a pair of glasses that let you take a photo.

It looks like the Galaxy S8 will add one of Apple’s core iPhone 7 features

Samsung may still be reeling from the fiasco that was the explosion-prone Galaxy Note 7, but the South Korean tech giant remains focused on releasing new smartphones with compelling features that will, if all goes according to plan, help everyone forget about the company’s ill-fated phablet recall.

Samsung Galaxy S8 rumors have been coming in at a furious clip lately, and the most recent report relays that Samsung’s next-gen smartphone will incorporate a pressure sensitive display, similar to what Apple first introduced with its 3D Touch feature on the iPhone 6s last year.

Apple’s iPhone could be collateral damage in Trump’s war with China

One of the pillars of that greatness is the US-China economic relationship, which Trump clearly wants to alter. But an editorial piece in one of China’s state-run newspapers can be seen as a warning of what might happen to Trump’s America in the event that a trade war erupts. More →

MacBook Pro with Touch Bar review roundup: This gimmick isn’t for everyone

At the beginning of the month, we rounded up reviews for Apple’s 13-inch, Touch Bar-less MacBook Pro. Despite its hefty price and lack of the most intriguing new feature, the reaction was overwhelmingly positive, with most outlets claiming that the MacBook Pro with function keys would be a solid upgrade for anyone that needed to move on from an aging machine.

The consensus isn’t quite as clear when it comes to the Touch Bar models.

2016 Election Facebook

Mark Zuckerberg stands his ground, says Facebook didn’t lead to a Donald Trump Presidency

Defying pollsters and political pundits across the country, Donald Trump handily won the 2016 U.S. Presidential election and will be sworn in as the 45th President of the United States in just about two months. Trump’s surprising victory over Hillary Clinton was met with utter shock and disbelief in liberal circles, prompting many to wonder how a candidate with zero political experience and a penchant for making inflammatory remarks managed to inspire and capture the attention of so many Americans.

Through this process, an increasingly popular narrative holds that many Americans were swayed, if not downright duped, into voting for Trump on account of fake stories on Facebook. As the argument goes, Facebook has done a horrible job of identifying and removing fake stories from its feed (especially anti-Hillary Clinton stories), thereby exposing the site’s vast user base to what ultimately amounts to propaganda.

Tesla Model S Vs McLaren 650S Spyder Drag Race

Watch a Tesla Model S P100D race against a $265,000 McLaren 650S Spider

Tesla certainly knows a thing or two about developing and manufacturing fast cars, but with the August unveiling of the Model S P100D, the company truly outdid themselves. When introducing the car a few months ago, Tesla CEO Elon Musk proudly boasted that Tesla’s new flagship vehicle was the “fastest production car in the world.” And with good reason, Tesla’s speed demon can go from 0-60 in just 2.5 seconds flat in Ludicrous Mode. Additionally, the Model S P100D can go from go from 0-100 in 6.5 seconds and can complete a quarter-mile in 10.7 seconds flat.
